[REQUEST] Need a logistical favour.

Hey,

I'm homeless without a permanent address, though I have a small source of online income which I use to raise small amounts of money.

I have nowhere to go tonight. I have just been paid £25 into my PayPal, which will secure me a hostel for a night. Thing is, nowhere accepts PayPal payment and it'll take the sum 3-5 business days to transfer to my bank account.

I was wondering if I could transfer the cost of a night at the hostel to somebody's PayPal, and they could then book it on my behalf? So I guess the request is monetary, but I'll send over the amount before you book so you're at no risk of losing anything.

Thanks for reading! PLEASE HELP ME! I'd really like a bed tonight.

EDIT: It's fine if you can only do this once, but I'd really like to find somebody who'd be willing to help me out with this continually. I wish PayPal just gave you instant access to physical cash when you wanted it, but alas.

TL;DR: Homeless. I transfer money to your PayPal, you then use it to book me a hostel. Can't book using PayPal, to transfer to bank takes 3-5 business days.
