Multiple PAYPAL accounts - Will PayPal link accounts?
 

How to get paypal not to link?

Look, is the paypal accounts new? If they are paypal will limit/freeze the account before you can withdraw the money. paypal is smart and they are on to this. So if you cant verify your account with ss# etc.. don't even bother..

i wouldn't take paypal. Just get a merchant account

He's exactly right...unless you can verify w/a ss#...you're toast. They will lock the account out as soon as you try to make any withdrawl regardless. Its been like this for years now. Just give up on paypal. There's other stuff out there like Bidpay that work just fine or just make people mail in checks/money orders.

or get a merchant account and you wont have to worry about that nonsense

I already have a merchant account but I can't take a chance eBay will link it.

So basically, I need a way around paypal's new account withdraw problem and still be able to get paypal to work. Anyone know anything?

Theres no way for ebay to link merchant account?

I don't think they can link a merchant account. Change your merchant account settings such as address, email, and stuff.

Send a custom invoice to yourself and see what kind of info is given out to your buyers. Do not post your old ID info.

Question
 

With a new sellers account ..everything different on ebay,can I link to a new name PayPal account.. to use the shipping and payment feature.. I know not to link the payment link ..but what about other links ...

Will I just be able to receive Money orders .. and not use the Pay Pal feature?

my paypal got a limitation. I had a back up and unused verified account which I set up from the same IP address as the one that got taken down. I've set up a few new email addresses to receive payments on. the paypal addresses that were out there on active listings I've changed over to my new addresses on the new paypal account. I've changed my address, credit card info and phone numbers

1. should I really cancel all my listings and put new ones up with the new email address?
2. can I log onto my new paypal account through a 'banned' IP? I have a dial up which I am using at the moment
3. has anybody had experience of paypal account linkage?

I had 2 ebay accounts and 2 paypal accounts. Both accounts have the same name but different everything else. One ebay account got vero'd. So now all i have is one ebay and two paypal accounts. Can i send money back an forth between these two paypal accounts without any problems??

Paypal will freeze/limit your account FAAAST!. Don't do that. that is suspect behavior.

What if one PP account is setup as a business account and one is a personal account?? Can I do it this way??

I tried to add a bank account but it won't let me. it says the account is unable to be entered into the system and asks for me to fax proof of the verified amounts going into the account, plus my driving licence/passport.

I can send this info as I have it. any advice people?

I'm going to put it this way. If you haven't verified any of the paypal accounts yet and start getting money flowing into it, it will get limited and frozed. Sorry to put it so blunt but it's the truth.

and yes send money from one account to the other won't work too as they will limit both accounts..

Why don't yo try bidpay or open a merchant account. Paypal is really not even need to get sales on ebay, but it is nice to have if you can avoid getting froozen

what happens when your paypal accounts get linked? I have tried to withdraw about GBP 250 from a verified account but my bank account has been blocked. I'm worried that they'll freeze the new paypal account I'm trying to withdraw from as they may have linked it through a shared IP.

if they do, what happens to the money in that account? they can't keep it surely!?

hey modee, I have a hunch i might need those sophisticated techniques you talked about. any tips?

Apsk ..in the Guide..
 

You did say you can use a old PP account with a new Ebay account as ling as you do not link ..but just put in the Paypal Email address.. correct?

Well I will try the Merchant account ..

Multiple PAYPAL accounts - Will PayPal link accounts?
 

I need to make another paypal account and i've read that once you start receive more than 500 a month they will lock your account and request a ssn#. I already have one that is verfied but is linked to ebay, so i need another. I have an account set up that i can use, but can i put all the same info as my first account just with a different email?

You probably can't. I remember trying to do this once, and Paypal gave me a notice that I already had an account? Which I did.. :)

I think i can do it. I just have to have it linked to another bank account. I have an account know and my wife set up an account going to our savings account and they have nto said anything yet. Same address and phone, but it was a differnt name. I'll try it using my name with another acount and see what happens.

Ah yes, that might work. I actually have plans to setup a new bank account for a second Paypal account I have. It should work fine. I have 3 Paypal accounts right now, but only one is verified, confirmed and business rated.

I set up a new paypal account a while ago as one got limited. the new one I set up with new bank account, new address and new CC number. only thing is I've just noticed (3 months into the new account) that I've put the same DOB on the new one and and both are in my correct name. will the link them on this basis?
