Think about it.
The wording is if you cannot verify yourself then you can only withdraw funds to your bank account. This to me means that even having a bank account already attached is not going to be sufficient for verification because theyre referring to the ability to withdraw to the bank account that is already there.
Again - I heard this from two sources now that have spoken extensively to paypal customer service reps - theyre being told that an SSN will be required to activate that functionality. Whether or not this is actually the case is anybody's guess at this point because from my personal experience those reps usually know less than nothing.
Time will tell.

100% of my accounts are verified on ebay and of course ebay never asked for my SS number.
Time will tell I guess. Wont effect me much either way.

Yes if you have your bank accounts attached and all you do is withdraw your funds out then this has almost no impact on you.
If youre NOT in the US though and do NOT have the ability to withdraw your funds then this pretty much negates the option of using US accounts.

Other than areas that cannot access PayPal locally, what is the benefit of using US accounts over others? Is this a drop shipper thing?

If he is using stolen SSN I doubt he would say that lol

His words are : "My accounts are all SSN verified..."
I certainly hope that was worded wrong then.

All other accounts still contain real info, just verified with EIN. I have more accounts than the amount of emails I can attach to each account. If they didn’t cap it off I’d just run one.
So unlike your first impression, what I am doing is perfectly legal.

I have managed to not run into many PayPal issues, just mostly Etsy messing with me thanks to competition. I would move on to websites or other platforms if it ever got to the point of breaking the law to do business. Even forging invoices is something I have an issue with.
I just check in on these threads as I do have EIN based accounts, still legit, and don’t want to lose those as I’d be over the limit for business accounts using my SSN. | The Following User Says Thank You to Gladiator For This Useful Post: | |

I just made 3 calls to PayPal , talked to 3 people and they have no idea about that. I was asking all those 3 girls "Haven't you got that e-mail as well?!". They all ended up telling me "I can see no restrictions on your accounts whatsoever" "You have no limits, please feel free to send and receive as much money as you wish" <---- this made my day =))

At least 2 other users I know of had a much more ominous experience on the phone with PP recently.

I just bought close to 1k worth of $100 gas cards @ $94 a piece to clear out my accounts without a BA. What a PITA this is going to be. SMV has a special today so get em while you can.

@nate - source? were they digital cards or something?

@Phazorz
So if I have personal bank accounts attached... If I get EIN nubmers will I have to open up new BA's in the business name and switch BA's on PP?
