Nobody here is sure what is meant by "if we've been able to verify the info you've provided".
There's no need for pontification. I think it's beneficial to everyone for us to keep this conversation going rather than dismissing any interpretation that doesn't line up with your own. |

Their policy changes and you either meet it, or you don't. |
| Gladiator | 03-13-2018 02:06 PM | Re: PayPal TOS Update - Transfers for verified people only! Plus you have the right to opt out and close your account if you don’t agree with user agreement changes. That’s a compliance issue they have to legally provide. |

Am I missing anything? This is ALL speculation. All of it. the simple fact is none of us know exactly how this is going to be done so panicking right now is pointless.
And to counter what you said - The SSN and DOB can easily be bought online. Using said SSN and DOB and any number of public database companies that provide their services for $9.95 per month one can find pretty much all the info necessary to pass said verification questions. A bank statement can easily be photoshoped. The prostate exam will need a special template - Im sure one can be arranged.
Did I miss anything?
Point is - where there is will there is a way and if nefarious elements want to avail themselves of paypal's services they will be able to do so no matter what security measures/obstacles are placed in their way.
Im not in denial. I just dont see the point in wasting all this time on something that we simply dont know enough about. When this feature rolls out and we actually know what we're dealing with ill get to work on a solution. Right now youre working on a solution to a question that has way too many variables and not enough data. |
| Hercules | 03-13-2018 02:43 PM | Re: PayPal TOS Update - Transfers for verified people only! I like to get prepared for the worst I can't sit and wait for possible bad things to happen. It's something I wish I could develop as you do because as you say it's unknown so why worry...if only I could. Sorry if I went bonkers They stole my money and it angers me. |
| slokor | 03-13-2018 02:57 PM | Re: PayPal TOS Update - Transfers for verified people only! Paypal steals money from people all the time. I can understand the anger. Its why we all came here to begin with.
With this specific situation though theres no point in being impatient or angry.
We know something is coming. We're not sure of the details. We know what the various possibilities are and we know what our options are in case of these various possibilities.
We did the preparatory work. Now we need to wait for it to actually be implemented to know what we actually need to do or can do about it.
Never forget we're all on the same side here. |
| Gladiator | 03-13-2018 03:10 PM | Re: PayPal TOS Update - Transfers for verified people only! From what I gather on the Paypal Community Forum the verification options are pretty standard:
Call and/or Text
Add Card
Add Bank
EIN/SSN stays the same until threshold requirements are met.
I took some time and went through the recent posts on there and no one (not even PayPal employees who post) have mentioned identity info off the bat. Not saying it may or may not be a thing still, but all the responses to recent posts have been specifically about verified bank accounts and debit cards.
All of this is to comply with the VENMO issues of transfers. They were having problems with instant transfers and missing payments and it looks like to address it they are requiring actual, verified banks.
Should you wish to swim in a sea of posts, go on the PayPal Community pages and search for VENMO and 2018 TOS updates. |

This to me means nothing has changed yet. Even if this is planned we will not see it happening until April 19th at least.
Patience people. |

Patience people. | These were direct questions about the updates and VENMO issues that are before the government right now. I was just passing along what I read. I'm not personally concerned, I just read a lot about everything and googled it to see if I could pass along some more in depth info for you guys who seem shook over this. (Not necessarily you personally, you seem chill) |

| Mr. Invisible | 03-13-2018 05:22 PM | Re: PayPal TOS Update - Transfers for verified people only! Those who were operating with no real bank accounts, buying cryptos, buying items listed by other accounts to move money around or directly sending paypal balances to other paypal accounts are probably the only sellers this update will hit. :pry: |

Stop hammering this issue friend and just relax until it actually goes through. |

Sure. But I was expecting clarification, updates from PayPal till the day ZERO. Maybe now some of their employee know something ...:croc: |

| ebaystealth1974 | 03-16-2018 02:23 PM | Re: PayPal TOS Update - Transfers for verified people only! ^^^ From reading some of your posts, I'm not sure how you kept them THIS long. |
| Matce | 03-16-2018 02:25 PM | Re: PayPal TOS Update - Transfers for verified people only! I do have a small and very positive update (I left one of my accounts with the "bug"), but unfortunately I can't post it here since paypal might fix it.
I guess once it "hits" everyone, you will also find out soon...
Let's just say even tho the account is unverified and no bank is attached, the money can still be used!
I apologize for being so vague, but it is good news! |
| SNUFF1984 | 03-16-2018 06:50 PM | Re: PayPal TOS Update - Transfers for verified people only! As usual you are straight out and correct. This is why I always use you for my accounts. Methodical and careful planning gives buyers such as myself accounts that last. KUDOS! Quote:

Another month like that and I think attaching new paypal to them was worth it, EVEN you should agree with that. |

I hope paypal is not going to ask for docts if you do not show up on the public database . It could ether mean that or you need a bank account attached(hopefully, we can just use a vba then) |
| smartguy | 03-19-2018 09:42 AM | Re: PayPal TOS Update - Transfers for verified people only! they are keeping sending those e-mails. now i also see this at the end of the e-mails Quote:
To clarify that PayPal is not acting as a money transmitter in connection with the PP Here and Pro/VT agreements, we added a section to those agreements stating that PayPal is acting as the merchant’s agent to receive payments on their behalf from their payers.
| Yes, PayPal you are money transmitting company ... lol
i hope they haven't lost their license to transmit money for US.... |
| yankee | 03-19-2018 09:48 AM | Re: PayPal TOS Update - Transfers for verified people only! They are acting as a merchanchant's agent. |
| smartguy | 03-19-2018 10:10 AM | Re: PayPal TOS Update - Transfers for verified people only! Deposit money from bank and then .... Send money ... goods/services/friends does look like something else... |
| yankee | 03-19-2018 10:13 AM | Re: PayPal TOS Update - Transfers for verified people only! They have been trying NOT to be a merchants agent. Sounds like the government is making them or changed the definition. If that is the case, SS will be required, Just like amazon, sooner than before.
Time will tell. Only a month away. |
