and your strongly reccomended to do so. some people won't pay to an unverified paypal acount. paypal is good but its slow when your recieving money and the charges have to be considered as well. it takes 5-7 working days to transfer money to a bank acount via paypal. so that's effectively 2 weeks of real time. one slightly good thing is if your transfering more than £50 to your bank acount they don't charge you for that but you still get charged for recieving money.
