I have a Bank Of India Credit card but it does not seem to get verified with Paypal. Its displays the following error: I checked the address and all.... but it still gives the same error. Does anyone know what the problem might be?
Yeah I tried all differnt combinations with and without spaces and also the cvv number is correct. It is some problem with the bank?
If all info is correct then you can call up your Bank and also contact the paypal regarding the issue.
Don't think so that bank helps in this issue Need to contact paypal and let him know of this. Maybe they help you in this issue. DON.
Ah, that would be the problem. Only an International Credit Card can be used with Paypal since Paypal is based in the US.
You need an international credit card. You are having a domestic use only card. Foreign currency transactions cannot be done through that.
An ATM Card is not a Credit Card. When they say an Credit Card, they mean International Credit Card and nothing else. If your ATM Card has a VISA or Mastercard logo, have the same 16 digit number format and the CVV2 number at the back, you might be able to use it since it may be a Debit Card. But otherwise, you cannot do so. Go to your bank and ask for an International Credit Card.
Yes its an ATM cum Debit card. and it has Golbal written on it. But it give some error saying : What am I doing wrong?
You can't verify your paypal account using any indian debit card (it doesn't matter wether it is local or internationa). DON.
Alright thanks Don. Now everyting looks crystal clear. So which card will I need? I have seen this HDFC net card commercial is it good? Should I get it?
I suggest you to apply for HDFC or ICICI bank's Credit Card and verify your paypal account using that card. You can also apply for addon credit card if your parents,brother or sister has one credit card. DON.
Will anyone of the HDFC and ICICI credit cards work? and how much are the fess for those per year? And im under 18 so can I create one or do I have to use in my dads name? Thanks.
Since Paypal require you to be 18 years old and above, you might want to hold off signing up an account for yourself since you will be breaching your contractual agreement from the start and it could come back to haunt you in the future.
I dont think any bank would give someone below 18 years a credit card. Both ICICI and HDFC would need you to be 21 years to get a credit card. Or you can get a credit card in your dads name. There are free for life cards from both ICICI and HDFC so make sure you get them.
