    for a paypal uk account to be verified you need to have a bank account with pounds as primary currency of account. but if you are in uk and has two bank accounts and both with us dollars as primary currency then how to verify

    Look Mate, the currency in the Account is our sole property. I mean you can anytime change it. This will never be show stopper for any kind of verification.

    What is it you earlier made a thread asking people to lend you a PP account as u don't have one but now this thread where you have a PP account that too of UK. What are you upto ??

    no dude one of my friend is in uk. he has two bank accounts but the primary currency of his bank accounts is us dollars and he can't change that for me. but for a uk paypal bank account addition you need one with uk pounds as primary currency. so is there anything else.

    This is not really important that you deal with same currencies. You could always covert to currencies of your choice. Lets say your friend has two US $$ accounts and he has UK paypal, when paypal sends money to his account it would automatically be converted to the currency of his bank account.

    I wouldn´t say so because if you recieve large payments in a different currency then your primary account currency and convert it to your local currency you make big loss because of PayPals currency conversion fee. This can be a "good amount" if you deal with bigger sums. So it would be better to create a "sec. currency account", let´s say one in GBP and one in $ (but in same PayPal account)

    Kind regards

    I support him. Try to have the payments in the same currency as the account is in. This will also save your few bucks which paypal deducts while conversions.
