    Well i do not have a creditcard and i'd like to be a verified paypal user. I heard from a friend that there was something like prepaid creditcard or something and that i should ask here for it.

    Thanks in advance! (if anyone sells it please send me a private message)

    uh...i think you are referring to a debit card. I don't know which country you are coming from but here where I'm staying, debit card is different from credit card in the sense that in DB, you must have an amount of money inside and the spending limit is the amount of money that you have. For CC, you can spend first and then pay later.

    I'm not sure if you will be able to continually use the account with a prepaid debit card attached to it without getting limited. The best option for you would be to get a bank issued debit card if you can't get a credit card and you will have nothing to worry about.

    Paypal will detect a prepaid credit card such as Green Dot. They will remove it from your account during a random audit and then your account will go back to unverified. They are already aware of people using them and look for them. You need a bank debit card.

    US companies such as Green Dot sell prepaid credit cards but it won't help on Paypal.

    Ive just acquired a bank debit card but I was worried when I received my card because the name on it is only "one word" while my name is 2 words like "James Alexander" and on my card its just "James" and family name. I have not added/input the details yet on my paypal account as I would like to know the answer first if its ok? Will paypal accept it?

    thanks

    It wouldn't hurt to try both combinations but I wouldn't try more than two times.

    You can use Vitual Credit Cards to get your account verified THOUGH I dont recommend em and you may face some probs in future with your account if you use a VCC but some people over here are using it without any probs.

    Just have a look in B/S/T section and you will find some seller.

    Epassporte is just another payment processor similar to PayPal.
