Mobile Phone's Area code question?

[rem]

Hi everyone,
I read in an old thread that someone said Paypal wanted to verify that their phone number matched their address.

I was thinking of linking a number that doesn't have the same area code as the Paypal's address. It is the same country.

Has anyone had a problem with that ?

Thanks

Where are you getting the phone from?

Number area code doesn’t matter, as long as it’s a physical number and not voip. And it shouldn’t be a number that’s used on lots of accounts.

It should take around 1-3 months to register in PayPal system to use it to verify your identity after its added to your account

Prepaid physical phone? That's good to use.

The area code itself doesn't matter. So you should be good to go
