Default Paypal asking Proof of Address

I got a problem with paypal (actually not my name) personal account when I tried to send £160 personal payment to someone. I received this email and were then able to upload ID docs, please verify your identity to lift sending limits, then i sent ID which is approved but they are asking proof of address, unfortunately don't have any address proofs under his name,
Any input is highly appreciated....

Default Re: Paypal asking Proof of Address

Hehe had the same issue ,real ID ,real telephone bill (with some edits),just used a pdf edittor,changed the name on the bill, sent it to paypal and it got approved..just get a legit bill or something and edit name or whatever else you need..Dont think they check something more than if the name and adress are the same as your paypal's name/adress

Edit: not sure if i was lucky , but from what i read on the forum it depends on the agent who will check it

Yes monzo is acceptable, i have used this before. so you can edit it. Alternatively, you can edit your gas or electricity bill

Paypal do not accept address on photo ID for uk and usa. you have to submit and ID and a utility bill/bank statement for address proof
