Paypal phone number issue

[microwolf]

I had a paypal account linked with my friends bank account and card but the account was under my name. I was using it to buy stuff online. It was working fine and still working fine when I try to buy stuff. Then I decided to send money to the account now when I try to accept the money and transfer it to the bank account it asks to add a number. I tried adding the number I used to register my account which was a temporary number from online site paypal says it isnt registered in my name. And I don't live in the us or can get a us number registered in my name so all of my money is stuck in paypal.

Any number you add at this point will give you that error message for at least 4-6 months.
Nothing you can do about it unfortunately - except wait.
