I registered a new account on Paypal using my HDFC netsafe account which generated a card to make the initial $1.95 payment for verification. The site specifies that my account will only be verified after I enter the 4 digit Paypal code that will be send to my "card statement". My query is, since the transaction was a Virtual card, will the paypal code be sent to me, as the card is valid only for 36 hours. Or will it atleast turn up in my bank statement? The initial payment done by the virtual card went through without a problem, but its been two days now and I dont see any paypal code in my bank statement or otherwise. Can anyone throw some light on this if they've done a similar transaction? Thank you.
Dude you need to look into your HDFC Netsafe account for the transactions you did. Go to Netsafe Account > Click on All Account / Services >Txn Details > You will see something like XXXXPAYPAL--*EXPUSE Closed The XXXX is the Expuse number required to entered into the Enter Code in Paypal then you will get verified but I will suggest you to get a real credit card soon because you do not have a valid statement for your HDFC VCC you create.
Thank you so very much, Ajucoolest. I've got my account verified now. On another note,(sorry for the question if it seems silly, I'm an extreme novice at this) now if I want to add funds to my Paypal account can I just generate Netsafe cards with the amounts I wish to transfer and add the new cards to my list of cards in my Paypal account? Will the money transferred to the paypal account via the Netsafe cards be available to withdraw from Paypal even after that Netsafe card validity period ( normally 24-36 hours) expires? Thanks in advance once again
How many paypal Accounts do you have, If you have only one then it is not possible. If you have two Paypal Accounts then it might be possible for you. IF you want to try this you may do. Use OIO Publisher to buy your own Ads for one week or year depending how much you want to add funds to paypal account. Your funds will get deposited into your Paypal account , (Use Premier Account , there are lesser fees when you take credit card payments on this type of account, Personal accounts fees are higher). If you do not understand this process PM me. I will provide you demo or help you in transferring your funds from Netsafe to Paypal
Ajucoolest, thank you so very much for helping me through with a step by step explanation on how to set up my Paypal account and also for successfully helping me transfer funds to it from my Netsafe account Much appreciated boss.
