Do I get my Paypal account limited if I remove VCC expired?
 

Ok to day is my day.

My VCC expired today, what is the next step?

I already bought a new VCC but the number is totally different to my old one.

Is it possible to add the new VCC and remove the old one? If so, any chance to get my account limited or unverified by PayPal?

You probably have been getting the "card about to expire, please update your info" emails from paypal...so they know that it is expiring and you CAN add a completly different card with a completely different number on there with no issue. Just make sure the card has your paypal/ebay registered info attached to it. Perfect example....say you were just a regular normal ebayer......your VISA card is about to expire......you no longer want a VISA card and instead have a new MASTERCARD instead....well then you would enter in your MASTERCARD info since you no longer have VISA.....it is a "regular" situation so you would be fine. This is just from my knowledge. Good Luck!

Even if you obtain another 'VISA' card (in the previous example), the card number being different is not a problem. Often, people change WHICH card they have when it is time to renew. Suppose my Citi Visa expires. I might replace it with a Chase Visa. The numbers would be very much different.

In the case of VCC, be sure you aren't trying to add one that has been blacklisted.

Don't most people just get a new card with a different security code on the back and a new expiry date, but it still has the same card number?

I do not think it will be a problem.

Most of us have many credit cards we can use and pp knows most people carry different cards with different limits.

And I've done it like 50 times with visa and no probs

I don't know about anyone else, but I can't afford to be buying new VCC every 3 months.

Plus I think it looks suspicious always adding a card that has only 3 months left on it. :suspicious:

if you have multiple bank accounts a cheap way is to report your card lost every now and then...

Just use entropay, I have openend one VCC for each Paypal account and I am funding them with the same debit card but I have three different virtual cards and I get 12 months on each card

I thought entropay wasn't working anymore, or is that just for feebay?

If en tro py still works, I thnk its handy and cool that you can move funds between your different en tro py cards. I haven't tried it yet but in theory it can save a few quid (ie. you dont need to topup 10 on every new card when you want to link it to pp - my theory)

Exactly what I do as you can create loads of new VCC without funding them with the minimum £10 each time just transfer from other VCC although there is like a charge of 10p so initially transfer about £12-20 and you can create a lot of accounts with them funds and yes entropay works fine

^ thanks for confirming. My new pp limits are lifted.... yeah
