Help! How do I verify my paypal account?

I never had a hard time verifying my Paypal account. I would try and chat with Sarah the virtual Paypal Assistant. Maybe she can help you and if that doesn't help then I would Call them at 1-888-221-1161

Wow! It has been a while since I had to do this. I think you have to check your aacount and see if Pal put a few cents in your account, then go from there. Maybe some one else can tell you more.

There are two way to verify paypal account.. ONe of them is th easy way out of linking your credit or debit card to it, while the harder method is thru adding bank account, whereby u need your local bank's branch code, address as well as phone number.. hehe But i only verified my account thru adding bank account, and that i have not heard anything about verifying thru phone call.. hehe ^_^ BUt there are 2 mylot members working for paypal, maybe u can ask them ^_^

You have to put in your bank account information. You also have to submit the two small deposits into your paypal account that paypal gives your bank.. Once you have done all of these things, your account will become verified.

I actually had to deal with a somewhat similar situation recently because my paypal account was put on limited restrictions or something like that. They also sent out a letter with a security code for me to verify but the thing was I never got the letter. It turned out that they were sending it to my old address because I forgot to update my account when I moved. So I had to go through and update my billing address and such. It still wouldn't work and my account was still limited. After struggling with it for a while I finally figured out that it was because I didn't update the expiration date for my bank card. I later verified it through a phone call and now my account is up and running again. Although, I don't think this situation is like yours. You might want to try contacting them with an email or just call their customer service number and talk to an actual representative.

I went to the bank this morning to get the two ammounts of money they take out (or ask for) I will type them in later. Thats the stage I am at. I hope you get it sorted. I hate it when things like this happen. Good luck.

It's been a long time since I had to verify my account - years, actually. But I don't remember it being that difficult. They deposited some pennies in my checking account and I had to log on and tell them how much they were. When I verified a credit card, they took a small amount from it, then put it back. There was nothing else I had to do. Are you sure you're looking at a real paypal correspondence and not some phishing scam?

Its a very easy for me to do it, as i just given my credit card no and they debit some $2 in it and they provided a verification code for that debit. i took a ministatement in ATM and just feeded it in paypal account activated money transferred and withdrawn also

I think it is because you are not from the United States? I have never had any problem with my verifying my account.

I had been through that while ago, after paypal sent two separate small payments into my checking account, and i verified both amount correctly, i am considered as verified by them.

well even i am having the same problem i tried linking my debit card but it doesn't accept at all don't know what to do?????????

I have also tried to verify my account so many times by using my bank card no. and address but it did not accept I also contact the paypal support then they replied to keep on trying and if problem persist you may contact your bank regarding this, But I have still having my paypal account unverified
