    Hi,
    I have created a new paypal account. It's been 2 days, the bank account has been verified but the account still shows "Limited Access" as PAN card verification is still in progress.

    How much time does Paypal take to verify my PAN card number?

    Thanks for the help :)

    You Just Need To Add Pan Card No And Your Account Becomes Verified Instant.

    In my case the account got the "verified" status when I confirmed my bank account with it. As of now it is showing "Limited Access" and when i click that it says "PAN Verification in progress". Hence my question, how much time does paypal take to verify pan number?

    Already sent them an email. I have been told that my issue has been escalated. Weird problem this is.

    This has nothing to do with my bank.

    They never asked for it :confused:

    Actually, they wont verify PAN Card like verifying your CC or bank account. If you enter your PAN number, it's enough. But you are saying something strange. So, just make a call to them.

    I wrote them email on 2 occasions and they said they are reviewing my account and will get back to me soon. It's really annoying to see such problem.

    Indian officials are lazy. They'll take their own time in verifying PAN info. Use the 'Contact Us' link and send another reminder.

    This is really a pain for Indian users. Unnecessary wastage of time in verifying something information regarding which can even be accessed on Income Tax of india website. Really really sad.

    I called paypal. They said, PAN card is verified by some 3rd party company which usually takes 3 days but can take much longer when volume is high. The representative was courteous enough to give me assurance that this issue will be resolved soon. No ETA was given though.

    No updates yet. Still with a Limited status account. Called paypal and they have requested me to be patient. Sigh. If this doesn't go through I'll opt for Bank Wire instead.
