I set up My PayPal Account in Australia but want to add a US Bank Account

Discussion in 'PayPal' started by vodkkaa, Feb 23, 2008.

    I set up my PayPal account as an Australian account because that is where I live. Currently I have only US dollars in my PayPal account and want to withdraw them to my US bank account. The problem is that when I try to add a bank account, it has to be Australian. Is there anyway to do it without making a new PayPal account.

    According to the PayPal regulations, When you change a country,You are supposed to close your previous account and open a new one in the country of current residence.....Considering the above,You can close your Australian PayPal account and singup for a New PayPal account in U.S and once you shift back to Australia,You need to repeat the above

    US bank account is always acceptable.
    You can add your US bank account to your Australian paypal account too.

    I Believe in Australia, you need to add an Australian Bank for the verification process but after you added that, you can add your US Bank. When you have two bank accounts listed, you can decide which to withdraw to. So it would mean that even with an Australian bank listed, you do not need to withdraw to it at all.

    I have opened a US PayPal account and am waiting for my bank account to be confirmed. Does PayPal have any problems with people holding multiple accounts. My Australian account isnt verified, and I am going to close it after I transfer my current balance over to my US paypal

    -=EDIT=-
    I have $450 USD in my unverified Australian account. Can I send the money to my US account, then withdraw it to my US bank account, even though it hasn't been confirmed yet. The only thing I am worried about is my US PayPal being limited for recieving such a large transaction.

    Well, You mentioned above that your Australian account isn't verified ? Then how can it be premiere.....? I gave my suggestion, Suggest you to do consult the PayPal website help section for further info,

    The bottom line is,One person cannot have two personal accounts in his name at any time...Hope this helps

    You really need to be in the country in which you sign up for your paypal account. Otherwise, you pretty much be putting yourself into a lot of trouble.

    Which country are you residing in now, Australia or US ? I am really confused.

    You cannot add a US bank account to a Australian Paypal account for verification since the US is not part of Australia or vice versa. Verification is to determine your identity. However, I believe you can include an additional US bank account apart from your already added Australian bank account for the withdrawal option.

    I think you mean miss-match names from you PP account and Payoneer bank card? nope Payoneer might reject banks transfers coming from a different name on file. My best advise, get a BOA account and attach it, or go with another prepay card. In my opinion.

    Hi there, I have a similar issue but can't quite work it out...

    I am based in Australia, and have an Australian paypal account. I also have an Australian based USD bank account with the Commonwealth Bank. I would like to add the USD bank account to my paypal account, so I can add and withdraw money in USD as well as AUD. Do you know if this is possible? It seems that I can only add an AUD bank account?
