That would immediately cause a link between your accounts. If your mother already has a USA bank account, why don't you see if she can call in (or go online) and open another account with the same bank? That way you would have a fresh USA account number to use with Paypal. I think that would be the easiest way for you. But there are also ways to get a USA bank account online (avoid Ally bank).
EDIT: I'm pretty sure Paypal wouldn't allow you to use your mothers account anyway. Paypal would refuse the bank account details once they realized they are already linked to a paypal account.
To the rest of you, I was just reading about this topic this morning on Paypals site. There are several countries (mostly in developing regions) which will only allow withdrawals to a USA bank account. I'm assuming Paypal does not have faith in the financial institutions of those countries. |
