paypal wants to call the phone number registered with them,but the issue is the phone number is not in use any more.
tried to go to" profile" update a new phone number,if it was a mobile phone number ,paypal will send a code to verify you own this phone number.
I did not have a phone number that can receive their text. have not tried to add the landline phone number.
I recently have the same issue,I can't add a us bank to a canada paypal

Yeah, seems like they might be fazing out the US accounts. I've been getting this error constantly on new, fresh accounts and VBAs.

Yeah I noticed a few weeks ago. I hadn't made any accounts for a while then saw that. I freaked out and didn't notice the "optional" until a few seconds after.
I think they put it there just to fish for people willing to show it, but it's still very optional and I didn't have any problems with new accounts thereon... well, except for now with the US VBA's.

If they are asking for SIN as optional for now, it means that soon it will be required by Canada revenue. We are ****ed ...

The principle of SIN is well protected and is often VOLUNTARY not required...should be PP try to make this a requirement, they would violate many rules about it - PP is too smart to do that.

Any update on a resolution for this? Ive gotten this error when attempting to add a US account to a Canadian PP. Even attempted a small local credit union and received the same message. You are unable to add a bank account at this time. "this is not a VBA, but a real account at brick and mortar bank"
Maybe US accounts are phased out completely?

No updates, nothing new. Can't add US accounts, period. So yes, I think they are stopping US accounts. My guess is they caught on, or have alot of people from the US opening CA accounts because it's "easier" (ie no public database).

Consequences of this will go right across every country using paypal & permitting US banks as part of usage.
I have not checked paypal ca for policy updates since Monday. (June 3rd)
Anyone aware of any emails with info for paypal Canada |
