Activity: 0% Longevity: 66% | | Any experience opening stealth in these EURO countries?
Hello,
I am looking into creating more European based accounts.
I have easy access to US bank accounts so I am targeting the countries where Paypal allows adding a US account.
Does anybody have any experience creating & running stealth accounts for the following countries:
IRELAND
LUXEMBOURG
GREECE
FINLAND
HUNGARY
SLOVAKIA
CZECH REPLUBLIC
Any pointers is appreciated. I am researching and compiling all the info I can get.
thx
J.

the above and alot more countries, actually almost all inc. UK allow US banks BUT some important info I can give is that it has to be REAL US bank acc, vba are no good and all the card type banks for withdrawal eg walmart no good either. This is a recent development.

Thanks oompa
how do you add real US bank to UK paypal? I have never seen that option? I can only enter a sort code and account number
are you running stealth accounts in any of these countries?

It might be at the very beginning pages when you form it when they ask your country of origin at paypal.

It is a difficult time for users hoping to add US bank account |

re-checked - the euro option is there, but if you add a vba/card bank there is an error message....if you add a real USA bank, IDK, maybe try that........my advice to OP is there is no real advantage in having a non domestic account, unless there is some business reason, eg. you want to look as though located elsewhere.....

Getting increasingly difficult to add US banks to non-US based PP's ...period - even up here. I think it might be a move to REALLY force PP's horrible currency exchange rate on the hapless users who receive USD but must change it for the country banks...

update for UK, new paypals have NO option to add USA bank...
Some europe new ones still have option, but withdrawable card type vba not working, must be real usa bank...and this is recent, you used to be able to, but loophole closed
all tested by me...

Been testing this for weeks as well.
