Confirming Mobile
 

Is there a way to confirm mobile without a contract phone? I realize premium/shortcode sms must be available to do this, but I can't find a prepaid or other solution that paypal will send the code to. Anyone out there know what service I can use?

I've tried tmobile prepaid and google voice, neither work.

Yes there is a way.

I have the way as well. Maybe I should start to provide this service?

Re: Confirming Mobile
 

Why is this so important? I don't see the advantage to this......

Probably to use paypal mobile i'm not sure I will let others chime in

Re: Confirming Mobile
 

Sure, ill give you a hint. It doesn't require a mobile phone. Its actually pretty easy to do once you know.

Re: Confirming Mobile
 

There is a way to do this, I do it to some of my accounts. Keep looking for a solution.

Re: Confirming Mobile
 

For those who says you can confirm thru pp, can you at least tell me if tracfones is the right direction? I know right off the bat it does not.

I usually do not add a mobile , but I have 3 paypal accounts that I did and I used a tracfone and received the short code to confirm

It was the tracFones that I made a thread about I think it was this past DECEMBER where they were .01 cent each

Re: Confirming Mobile
 

I do not see the advantage either, I just use the number that I used with eBay and if it's a VOIP like TEXPLUS or something when I plug it into paypal I just use it as a home or work number so verification is not necessary

And as long as I have access to the number used when creating the account no matter what service it always works if I need to be verified when adding a Bank or whatever action on PayPal

Besides a couple accounts I used a tracfone and received the short code the rest I plug in as home or work

A mobile is not required , they just want everyone to use paypal on there cell phones so they push it, but it's not necessary

For my purposes which is mainly using it With eBay it doesn't make a difference

There's YouTube videos on how to get the code without a phone, you down load some software online and you have a phone on your computer and it's supposed to accept the paypal short code but again there's no advantage for me in doing this

Nah I'm okay. I use to explain my issues with clear resolutions on here to help other members only to be shunned and degraded as if I was someone that can't figure out things. It only took one person to change my approach as to what I info post here. However I did notice this mod tends to like to degrade people low post members and praises any post coming from members with 1500+ post even when its wrong. Also come to find other from others that this mod doesn't even sell on ebay and just mods this forum with info they get from members here.

I do have respect for most of the vet members here though. I believe they are truly the life of this forum.

Re: Confirming Mobile
 

well I figured it out anyways thanks to the shark.
I find it helpful to sell on a 80% account rather than a 60%

Re: Confirming Mobile
 

ima give my 60% paypal a shot in trying to sell then.

Re: Confirming Mobile
 

There's thread about that % thing. Haha don't get caught up in %. All you need is vba & vcc confirmed limited lifted. % means nothing..

Re: Confirming Mobile
 

Phone confirmation is not that big of a deal. I don't think I ever confirmed it on any. My main pp account is at %60 with no confirmed ph# and this account has no selling limits. I was just curious what was the work around as allegedly gphone and tracphone don't work for this anymore. But you guys turned it into some kind of conspiracy. Some people are just lame.
