Limited Paypal - Proof Of Address Question.

Discussion in 'PayPal' started by Takuto, Feb 14, 2013.

  1. #1
    Hello there. I have Receiving Limit per Year on Paypal, and i have been wondering. To lift the limits you need to give ID Card and Proof of Address.

    I can give my ID card, but i don't really have any Proof of Adress at home (Well i have, but without MY name written on it, only my fathers). Will they accept it?

    Otherwise, can i provide Bank Account Contract that has the address and my name written?

    EDIT: I have heard that one person from my country has sent a Digital Extract from Bank Account (As proof of address) and it worked for him. So is it a good way?

    Greetings.

    the proof of address need to have your name. The bank statement is good enough to be the proof of address

    Thats enough IMO. BTW you can provide any other documents as well (your name and address needs to be there as per paypal account is must).

    DON.

    Well, yesterday i provided that Digital Extract from Bank Acccount(as a PDF file i downloaded from my Bank Account).I'm waiting as response now.

    I hope it will work, because on my PayPal account address there is a shortcut of my street, instead of "street" it says "st.", but on the document it says "street" in full.

    Well, not street exactly only "square", but i'm giving you an example of it. Hope they will realize it can be written in both ways.

    The thing i'm most scared, if they for *some* reason won't accept it, will my money be frozen? :(

    Can i withdraw my money while the verification says "in progress" ?

    Takuto, ok you are ok..As long you never had a bad account , 99.9% they will link it. and if your selling anything illegal, they will probably freeze account and you will never see that money. good luck

    I never even bought/sold anything using Paypal. Especially i would never sell anything illegal. I'm just receiving normal, legal money from certain source and that's all i do with my Paypal account really. All i want is to lift the receiving per year limit.

    You can try to send them a scan of a school or student ID card. If you have a contract with the mobile service provider also should be enough.

    I send billing of my credit card to get verified for Paypal.
    You can also send other document that stated your address.

    I edited a document that was not my name. Changed the name on the bill to my name and it worked perfectly.

    Bank Account Contract that has the address and your name written on it is a proof of address
