    You can't verify your paypal account using any indian debit card. They only accept credit card for verification indian paypal account. If you haven't any credit card then you can apply for addon credit card if your parents or brother,sister have one.

    DON.

    You can verify your account using VISA Electron, its a debit card but works perfectly with paypal.

    Talk to your local bank. They will give you more information. Have you used your card over the internet?

    My card is VISA electron and i have no difficulties using it for online shopping, paypal and so on.

    Credit Card is Must For verifying of the Paypal Account. Although you are Indian so Debit card option is not for you.

    Just ask your daddy to open an account in ICICI Bank account. It should be opened in your name by depositing 10K. You will then be eligible to receive a credit card.Remember, you can never verify your paypal account by using a debit card even if it had a master card logo or a visa card logo. I hope you got the point.
