I have to agree. To me, it seems naive not to expect problems when mixing business and personal banking (corporate veil: pierced), not having the correct paperwork available, using not-on-file email addresses, etc.
If PayPal or a bank didn't insist on these strictures, imagine the outrage when someone's accounts are cleaned out by some fraudster with flimsy, half-good credentials.
Especially when traveling (especially to Africa!) you have to arrange things carefully in advance. Maybe someday things will be smoother, but it's still messy in 2009.
