Possible to verify paypal account with bank details?

    I had read somewhere in this forum that paypal has stopped accepting Indian bank details for verifying a new account. Is it a fact? I had also read that a couple of months back, paypal had initiated a system through which Indian users no longer need to add credit card detail and that they can verify their account through their bank details.

    According to that system, 2 small amounts would be transferred to the bank and when the user confirmed those amounts, their paypal account would be verified. Is this system still working?

    Thanks a lot in advance for your answers.

    Just do a search and you will get them.

    Thanks a lot for the quick response, Shubhi. Then my only option is to opt in for a new bank account and get a new credit card. I just cannot risk my current credit card being exposed online, given the fact that it high value Platinum+. The banks also will not permit me to downgrade the same. They say that I must be mad. According to them, everyone wants to upgrade their CC for a higher credit value and I am the first person they have come across who wants to degrade to a lower value. Sigh! such is life.

    For that you need to contact their customer care first and then give them writing request to downgrade your CC in a brach nearest your home.
