I was looking at the Edit Card page in my paypal account and i found that you can verify using debit cards if they contain a visa or mastercard logo. Now we get a visa debit/atm card with every icici account and i tried to verify my account using it. However paypal came back saying that the bank has rejected the request and i should contact the customer care service. Now before i talk with the customer care people..i would like to know whether it is possible to verify the account using the debit card?
Nope. You can't verify your indian paypal account using any Indian debit card. Only valid CC works for that. DON.
Indian Debit cards do not work to verify paypal account. Instead you can use HDFC netsafe or Kotak Mahindra NetCard.
You can buy VCCs from a number of sites and use and throw. Be careful while using a VCC though, you should note down the number, you might need to quote the VCC number to paypal in the future if your account gets limited Hope it helps! PEACE!
Get a credit card with a small bank deposit, to verify your PayPal. This is the only easiest and safest way to do it.
