    I don't think so. Lots of people have been verifying their paypal accounts by putting in virtual credit cards as well as gift cards. So this should not be a problem for you. And I guess paypal allows gift cards/virtual credit cards to be added to PP account.

    Yes I heard that too and still I am not sure why people recommend not to add a virtual Credit card to paypal account. Maybe they are afraid if paypal gets strict about virtual credit cards in future. and I would like to have answer of this question too.
    but for people who can't get a real credit card, virtual CC is the best alternative to verify paypal.

    Well I think VCC is best for Paypal accounts rather thn our Credit Cards. I verified via VCC and I have no problem since last 3 months. I don't know about future policy of Paypal on VCC.

    Right. I know many people used Virtual CC to verify their accounts and are using those accounts for many many months without any trouble. But you never know when paypal change their policy just like they did with Virtual Money Card (which people were using as US checking account with paypal accounts).
