apsara, even i have the same problem. donot know what to do. Someone told me that instead of credit card we can give out our NET card details - its much safer. You can open a net card which is done over night here. Net card is a virtual card and expires within acertain amount of time. We can renew it accordingly.
Good luck!

I have an acoount in a bank in India which provides Net card. They gave me one pin no. for the card which i can manage online. Every 48 hours (this time frme can be changed) it expires and the unique pin no. gets nullified. I can create another net card by providing another no. on net.
Now, suppose i make a card of rupees 500 and buy something worth 200 , after 48 hours the remaining 300 would be transfered to my account before the card expires.
You can verify the pay pal account by giving the card no. and ask for trfanfer of monet. i think, they will charge some tax for this. once its transfered it would get to your account automatically.
The benefit of this card is that it can't be hacked easily. I haven't used it for paypal as yet though.
hope you get me right.

Yes I did understand, so I will have to contact my bank....I will wait for sometime , may be there are some suggestion of making virtual net card on internet itself........if not then I will make enquiry with my bank.....at least now your account is verified. I just want to verify my account and save money , I have no intention to withdraw money immediately.....i just want to see that I have money in my account.Thanks a lot for your help mimipi....have a nice day.

I could open my paypal account only after using my credit card and some fee for opening an account was also charged by paypal from my credit card account. I have yet to withdraw any amount using my paypal account.

I too have an unverified paypal account.i try to add my international debit card but the paypal system is not accepting.I mailed to paypal admin and they inturn asked me to contact my bank.My bank has replied me that my card with visa logi can be accessed internationally but i dont understand why paypal system is not accepting.
Only way to get verified is through credit card.We can claim our funds through xoom.com from our paypal account with minimum $25 in our account in paypal to our bank account or by cheque.But the problem is xoom.com requires our paypal to be a verified one.Hence iam thinking of applying for a credit card.

Yes ,after discussing with many people and after several correspondence with paypal admin., I have come to the conclusion that, we have no other choice but to give them our credit card....so I will also apply for one .......this all is so complicated....and they say, paypal is easy.......best of luck to both of us.

hi suba and apsara,
xoom.com allows money transfer from paypal even through courier to your place and for that they charge some amount. this amount is more or less the same as the amount paypal debits (5$, i guess) to issue a check.
so why not ask for a chek from paypal itself at the cost of 5$?what do you think??

dear apsara
tnks for the best response..i withdraw my earnings from paypal through xoom last week.I too have a unverified paypal but xoom only requires sufficient funds in our paypal to withdraw.pls visit the site & register your account to transfer money from paypal to your bank account or you can request cheque or fund it through instant cash too..they charge $8 as fee for transferring and hence you need 33$ in your paypal account.

Thanks for your reply subathra. I was told about xoom.com also by some other friends at this discussion. But unfotunately, I live in Israel now and xoom does not include this country. I don't know what to do.......still waiting for some proper solution.
Thanks for your help.

I don't know what happened there. Mine is verified and I have taken money out with no problems. I have never used a credit card at all to get it verified. But I can't remember how I did it without it. There must be some way to do it. DId you ask them?

How did you do it.......I am in Isarel and it always say that since you are an international member, you must verify by credit card. Will you please let me know how you got your paypal account verified by mail. I think only citizens of USA and Canada can do that.

Hi there, I see that this post was way back before.. Were you able to resolve it? I am very new here. Are you also located in the Philippines? I want to ask my friend who referred me to this site but she's not here.
How do I apply for paypal? And how long did you wait before you're account had been verified.

No I did not verify my paypal account as I dont have a credit card. I choose option of moneybookers account. At least I have money in my account, though I did not yet try to get it in my hands. I don't know if moneybookers is ok for philliphines....please aske other friends here. I am sure someone will give you right advice. Have a nice day.

hi my friend .... i was also ..wondering ..wht to do ...when i joined .... mylot.. then i got over it .. the answer.. simple..do you have an account ... then prob . u will be owning a debt card.. give tht no for verification.... they ..will verify .. and accept tht thing.. easily ..as i have done like tht only ... they will not charge anything.... dont go to tht enhance advanced mode.... they will charge you... just select the basic mode.. its free of cost..
so with tht you dont need a credit card....
all you need is account ... with atm cme debt card ..
i hope u got it

Hello Shaeen,
I don't know what is debit card, I don't even have it.....how can I get it...... You mean if I give the last three digits of my credit card in verification block, they will verify my account.....please can you explain this to me....thanks a lot.

According to me the problem can be solved if you open another free account such as with moneybookers, checkout, etc. After you received your money there you can then try for verification of your paypal account.

yes that is what I will do.....I already have egold account, and moneybookers account. may be I will change from paypal to one of these. Can you tell me if moneybookers will also make any problem of verification in future. The problem is that most of the paid sites pay money only through paypal. Thanks for your help.

Well if I am from Canada I just used my canadian bank account...That's how I did it but if they say that you need a credit card then I guess there is no way to get around it.
