Old Burned SSN for upgrading to Paypal Cash?
I stumbled across this site while trying to figure out what to do. Over fifteen years ago, I had a Paypal account that went negative to due a fraudulent buyer/dispute. I tried and tried to resolve it with Paypal, but eventually had to give up and walked away from it. It was under my real name and SSN. A few years ago, I opened a new Paypal account with my real name, but a different phone number and address because I had moved. No SSN provided because I was afraid to. It has several bank accounts, debit card, and a credit card all linked to it.
Now they require a SSN to use Paypal Cash (PPC). I can verify my address, DOB, etc. no problem. Do I dare to provide my SSN to upgrade or should I just stick with the basic account? I really like being able to print address labels and the other features I just lost (as of today) because I don't have the PPC account. If I do nothing, I'll still have the basic account, but if I try to upgrade and it fails, I could lose that too and then my current address will be burned too.
Anyone have advice for or experience with upgrading their accounts with a SSN from a really old account that was limited? Is there a time limit like the 7 years for credit reports? Help, I am terrified!
