I'm from the Philippines, I want to know how to verify my paypal account aside from EON unionbank because Unionbank is really far from my home so that's not an option. are there are other ways to verify? I know I can't borrow credit card from someone else. any suggestion?

The easiest way to verify your account will be through verifying your bank account.They would send you a small amount to your account which when entered to paypal,you will be verified.You can check your deposited amount even through online.Don't you have an online eon account or some other online banks compatible with paypal.Apart from it,you can verify with your credit card.I dont remember any other easier way of verifying your account.

You have got it all the way around.You need not send money from the bank.When you put the details of your bank to paypal,paypal sends two small amounts to your bank.It is free and you dont have to pay.After paypal had sent it,see the payment history of your bank to know the exact details of the ttransaction.Enter that amount in paypal.You will be verified.

I already link a bank in my paypal but I don't think it will get verified by doing that because it won't send money to my paypal account. I don't use EON since there's no unionbank close to my home. I don't have credit card since I can't afford a credit card. Can I use a credit card of a family member?

I used Smart Money to verify my paypal account because I was very new to online working during then and I was afraid to use my credit card. But now that I am sure that it is a good site and I am really earning some amount online, I am not afraid anymore to use credit card with paypal. If you are still in doubt you can also use smart money.
Hope this helps. Have a nice day!

Thank for your suggestion but I hope I can verify my paypal soon. I'm really having a hard time finding a way to verify my account since I don't have a credit card since I just graduated I can't afford to get a credit card. lol

You can go to the nearest smart office near our place. My friend was able to get a card instantly although it has no name in it but she was able to verified her paypal account with that.
Please update me of any development so I can help you if you have any problem along the way.

yes I don't have credit card, it's really hard to verify your paypal if you don't have a mastercard or visacard. Maybe you should try getting a debit card but there is a maintenance fee.
