I’m hoping to make some purchases from Gumtree and wondered if the seller would see my personal details if I did a bank transfer

  2. Why not ask your bank? They will have the latest and most accurate information. Reddit is not a reliable source.

  3. How they will deliver the purchased item if you don’t want to share your personal details?

  4. They will see your name, but the formatting varies by bank. If I remember with NatWest it’s surname/initial so if your surname is rare it’s going to make it harder to find.
