Phone number in the Stealths name!!
 

So paypal is demanding (and I have seen this with Credit card companies as well these days) to have the phone IN the name of the account holder, Family plan doesn't count even if last name matches, business plans don't count either here!!!

First off let me say just how dumb this is on the part of ANY company who does this!!! I mean People are on family or business plans, sometimes an employer even offers a phone...

With that said..

what is the work around????

New one on me, I've created countless accounts have they've never been interested in who the subscription holder is, nor have I seen it mentioned anywhere.

Awaiting any kind of verification with interest.

I was talking more about paypal...

Genuinely interested to know if paypal have asked anyone to prove their phone subscription holder/payer and why they care.

I have had it happen 5 times now, and it usually kills my stealth when it is asked

Then you most likely are doing something wrong.

Are you using phone apps?

Re: Phone number in the Stealths name!!
 

Then why do persist in using phones registered in someone elses name? Didn't you think to simply get PAYG sims?

Still not convinced this is a 'thing'.

Hello.
Recently paypal is asking me to send a sms verification in order to singing to the account.
I dont have the access to it so the only way is to call them and replace the security option.
