Female Account
 

I forgot to specify when purchasing an account and was given a female account. I am male.

I know this will cause problems down the line so I am hoping to avoid them as best as possible..

Can you guys please tell me problems I will run into and how to prepare to avoid them? Obviously I should try to avoid talking on the phone but maybe I can have a friend talk for me.


Also I am trying to figure out how to withdraw the money, I have read a lot but the female account seems like it will make this a bit more difficult.
I was thinking to create a Wells Fargo bank account online. Maybe someone can please give me a bit of info on this as well?

Thanks!

Actually I just read that they are pretty much not allowed to say anything due to the sound of your voice.

Is that for both PP and eBay?

Re: Female Account
 

Just call with a manly voice, they don't care...

Re: Female Account
 

Ebay or PayPal cannot question your sexual orientation......

Re: Female Account
 

I called in about an account with the name Lisa. I spoke with the deepest voice I could, just to see if they would question me. They did not.

Re: Female Account
 

Lol. Thanks guys.

How about the Bank Account? I've been reading a lot and obviously I want an "easy" way to withdraw money..

Would I be able to just go online and create a Wells Fargo bank account and attach it to the PP?

Re: Female Account
 

I was asked before, one of my account name is John, I am female and they asked me, are you John yourself?

Re: Female Account
 

For all they know you could be transgender, so if questioned, you could just say "yes" and then they should hopefully have the sense to leave it at that.

How did you respond?

Re: Female Account
 

they are sooo hot on security and then they wont ask if you sound like other gender......how queer...

also what is the point of being transgender, if you look and sound like a samoan rugby player......I cannot wait til one tries to go to the
changing room at my gym, so I can kick up the hugest fuss......

You can speak in a low tone/whisper and it works as a female-mask, kind of

Re: Female Account
 

So any luck opening bank accounts? ;P

Can I just make a new bank account under my name and attach it to the paypal or would that cause some problems?

Re: Female Account
 

You open bank accounts in your real name, ss etc... I dont understand what you are asking? I never have a hard time opening banks online or in person. Why would you?

Re: Female Account
 

Ok good. Idk just keep reading mixed feedback about attaching the PP to a bank that is in another name.

So you guys have to make a new bank for each PP?

Re: Female Account
 

Yeah, that's how it works.

Re: Female Account
 

One bank account per pp - avoid reusing

Re: Female Account
 

Easiest way to get linked.

Re: Female Account
 

Or go high pitched lol

Re: Female Account
 

How would you suggest opening a bank in someone elses name seeing as you have to supply a photo ID in person or pass background checks online and supply an SS?

Re: Female Account
 

I meant in my own name. Some people I know have like 10 credit cards, I assume they just opened up 10 bank accounts..

Too bad they don't know how to internet or those cards would bring them money instead of debt

Re: Female Account
 

It is really easy to have 20 bank accounts and then over time a hundred or more especially if you add in business accounts and savings.

Re: Female Account
 

From my experience, they WILL assume your a scammer, you can just hear it in their voice. But it shouldnt cause you any problems, maybe your just a transexual ;)

Re: Female Account
 

TECHNICALLY it may not matter, or could be b/c of trans-gender stuff, BUT I would not hesitate to assume that they will assign it a red flag, because if it raises suspicion, it raises suspicion, and I'm sure they have a way to make a note or check a box, or something else if anything doesn't seem right, even to the lowest level of phone answerers. I would (slowly) change that first name to at least a name that could be for both- John to Jonnie or something like that.

Technically it might not matter, or should not matter, but always assume that it does, just for the sake of saving yourself time (as in re-starting over)
