    Not much you can do - should have created the account under your parents details.

    Well, like everyone said, put your photoshop into action. Anyway, you can also tell them that you are living with your parents and you share their address.


    Thats what i did actually, and it came ok.. i was honest about it..

    Anyway, you can read about my paypal limitation case study here, and see it it helps.. They will ask you futher verification details after that though.. But at the end of the daym all should be good.

    Thanks for the reply flaco...

    But, the vodafone bill has some VERY weird colours, and therefore hard to photoshop it.

    Can I just say I live with my parents?

    You can't. Listen to what others say. You've tricked them once and you might have to pay for that unless you trick them again. Things like "hey I live with mom and dad" do not have power to indulge the law here.

    How about waiting till you hit 18? Or is it too far away :rolleyes:

    Best thing is to stick stick to TOS before choosing to use a service.
    If you don't qualify for it then move on. Learn to do do business the right way, my honest suggestion. There's always a reason why a company decides to enforce a minimum age for customers to participate, don't you think?

    Just upload a utility bill under your mums name. I'm guessing your a male and PayPal might think that the female name of your bill is your wife or something lol.

    Give it a try.

    PayPal asked you for residence proof... not your age proof.. you should just imply upload them (if you have any).
