Is it possible to use the same email ?
 

Hi

Thought i would ask this quick question - Say i have this account froze meme@hotmail.com and i log into it and change the primary addy to something else, would i then be free to set up another paypal account with this email or would it be dirty forever ?

Sadly dirty forever! Always best to create new ID,email to match new paypal.

I couldnt make the newly added email primary anyway ,what about postal address ? I just added some random address to my account and deleted my real address ,would my real address still be dirty ?

i have one suspended account, and 2 or 3 others that are still good, and all with the same address. i don't recommend doing this though.

Paypal is like eBay in a way. They're not as harsh in a sense but they do retain details about your account, even if you delete it.

Any information shared between Paypal accounts; will most likely link those accounts. Could it cause harm to your new account? I want to say no, but as Twdell says I wouldn't recommend using the same account details, for long term reasons. Just because it doesn't harm your account today, doesn't mean it won't later.
