Paypal not letting me add a bank account
 

Just trying to set up my Ebay UK selling account.

This will be my second attempt at a home made stealth account.

I opened the paypal and the ebay Account well over a month ago.

Today I listed a low value used item on a seven day auction.

Then added a VCC which I bought on ebay to the paypal account "add a card" tab.

Then when I went to add the bank account it just gave me a message saying:

"We're sorry, we're not able to process your request right now. Please try again later."

Now it is later.. and im still getting the same message when I try to add a bank account. Can anyone help?

Which bank is it your trying to add?

Lloyds bank

Just noticed I hadnt "activated" the online banking thing on the Lloyds account.

wonder if that will make a difference.......

If the bank account was made the same day then you get an error, but adding it the next day is ok

Re: Paypal not letting me add a bank account
 

the bank account was made the same day as the Ebay and Paypal accounts but not added until today, which is well over a month later.

No, the account was blocked before I had a chance. will try it next time if there is an issue.

Don’t use Lloyd’s in the future . They don’t like mismatching names

Re: Paypal not letting me add a bank account
 

any suggestions for the best banks to use?

Any main high street bank other than Lloyd’s or tsb is good
