Can't add Bank to PayPal
 

Hello there,
Since yesterday I'm having trouble everytime I try to add a US bank to my US PayPal.
After entering the routing number and the bank account number I get an error that my info is not correct, I'm pretty sure they are fine.
Tried on two new accounts and 1 old account and none of them worked.
The bank accounts were never used before on any paypal account.
any solution and is there anyone having trouble too? thanks

Might be a glitch.
Any way you can try a different bank?

There might be many reasons, but most common one is, your bank account is not in a locality (country) where paypal is doing business. Or, you are entering the routing or account information incorrectly. Mind you you routing number (also know as ABA number) is different for everyday transactions like paypal, from a routing number for wire transfers. And I have seen people thinking since the paypal money is coming online, they assume this is equivalent to wire transfer, but it is not.

If neither of these are the case, you need to provide more information about where you are, which bank you are using and error message you are getting back from paypal
