    Hi DP members. Please help me openning a new paypal account.

    I have a bank account in Spain. But not living in Spain. I want to open a paypal account and verify it with my Spain bank account and transfer money from Paypal to my bank account in Spain.

    Now, I want to see if I can verify it with my Spain bank account and transfer money to my bank account? I ask this because I haven't Spain IP Address! I have US IP address.

    (I heared paypal checks the IP Address when we use it)

    Yes, paypal does check on the IP address as part of their fraud protection system. If you are in the US, why not just open a US Paypal account and be done with it.

    If I am not wrong, for Spain, you might need to verify with a Spanish Credit Card.

    It is probably going to be very problematic. I supposed when they limit your account, you can send them your Spanish Passport showing that you are in the US during the current time frame.

    Okay. That's right.
    But unfortunately paypal has a very bad customer support. They limit your account in a second but lift your limitation up to a year! :)
    It seems better to wait till return Spain!!!

    You can transfer money to your bank account in spain by just adding that account details to your profile
    from the home page of your paypal account>overview>add or edit bank accounts.

    I had no problem adding a credit card in US from India. However, with bank accounts you may need to be located in the country where your account is. Give it a try and see if you could add the spain bank account from the add/edit bank account option

    US Bank accounts and Credit Cards are the exception. You cannot add another country apart from your own and the US with your Paypal account.

    If you still have a few months, you should just consider getting a debit account like Netspend's Free Direct Deposit Account. The direct deposit cards are prepaid but not a VCC and operate like PayPal like a checking account; from what I've experienced, services like Netspend satisfy the security of PayPal's verification requirements. I think if you have a few months; It's still possible to get a debit card in your timeframe... Best of luck and enjoy your time in the U.S. Take care.
