Withdrawing with different name
 

I made a Canadian PayPal account in 2016 under a ⊗⊗⊗⊗ name and address and never verified it. I got limited a while back and my appeal was rejected and they told me I couldn't use their services any more and that all I could do was withdraw to a bank account or receive a cheque.

I have a Canadian bank account but my info doesn't match the info on the PayPal account. The bank account has never been attached to any PayPal before.

What could I do to get the money out? (About $500 CAD)

Thank you

should be ok, unless that particular bank does not like mismatched names, check on canada section of forum about that.

Welcome to the forum - all the best as you master stealth

@OP, which Canadian bank you dealing with? Most will allow withdrawals with mismatched names...

If the bank account has never been used before you should be able to add it and get the funds to it. Assuming its a bank account with one of the large five you wont have any issues with the deposits being made from a mismatching name.
The only issue you might have is actually attaching the bank account to the paypal account since its been limited. Many have been reporting issues getting it done and getting error messages about it. Might be different in this case though since its a Canadian account.

ah, you should be okay adding it to PayPal as long as you have never used it with another PayPal account. PayPal doesn't see your name and other personal details of your bank account. And in most cases your bank does not care about mismatch names (the big banks at least).
