Can I block out some account numbers on documentation?
 

When I send documentation for proof of address to Paypal, can I block out some account numbers and leave like the last 4 numbers on the utility bill?

Or do you guys just send the whole account number?

I Normally Block them out, ask long as they see your name an address

Okay. Because I originally used a cable internet bill and this is what Paypal sent me in the email. So I was wondering if it was rejected because I blocked out some numbers using a sharpie marker. I wonder why it got rejected then. I'm going to use another utility and try again I guess. Any tips anyone?

I use the same bankstatement from CH bank for all my paypal accounts. They accepted it so far in every Paypal (i tryed AT, UK and IE paypal).
I always fold the paper so the transactions are not visible

I wouldnt block that info if asked - I don't use real info though...I prefer PP not having that info on file

cable internet is an acceptable doc for proof of address so hiding the info should be the issue if it is not older than 6 months of course !
