Hey I have a UK PayPal that was recently limited. I require assistance in removing the limit in the account. I have exactly $24.39 USD in the account. In order to remove the limitation, PayPal requests that I "Add and confirm a bank account" and "Validate your Account Information". It requires a UK/US Bank account, and for the latter of the requirements, after I click on resolve it states "Enter your card information below, then click Add Card below to continue with Phone Confirmation." Could somebody kindly assist me in this matter, it will greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
Since you are in UK, just add your UK bank details in there with your UK-bank issued credit card and complete the phone confirmation as they require you and be done with it. As long as you do not use fake details to sign up then there is really nothing to worry about. It is a simple process.
Ah, but I'm not in the UK. I only made a UK PayPal so that I could receive money because the country I am currently from does not accept money through PayPal. That's why I used fake details. Also another the reason why I used fake details is that I saw that the full name of the money sender is sent to the recipient if I were to send money, which I find to be insecure as I don't want to give out my details. I only get money sent to me and I use that money to send to someone every month, I don't want to use a CC or a bank account. I don't understand why they are forcing me to add a bank account & CC.
Then in that case, you are screwed. They do not want people like you who uses fake information, all they want to is verify that you provide accurate information and if you cannot do that, there is nothing much you can do. Basically, if you do not provide accurate information, how do you think Paypal can trust you. You did read the contractual agreement before you signed up, right ? https://www.paypal.com/us/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=xpt/UserAgreement/ua/USUA-outside#restricted-policy
Or another way contact a friend in UK. Paypal will sent 2 small(less then 1$) to his account then u hav to just collect that specific ammount enter in the box, usually it takes 2/3 days. then ur account will varified enough for sending balance bt no cc required buy like GoDaddy bt u could use even for buying RapidShare account. My advice do this sent to ur friends account from whommu could get back money. BTW if u r in south asian country, u could believe me. LOl. I could get back ur money, sent it to me.
