To change your phone number on the tracfone requires a new sim card. 99 cents.

No matter what I do I can not get access to my money. It is frustrating. These are old accounts with money that has been sitting in them. Trying to buy an item online, every time I get an error message telling me I need to verify my phone and I can't because the phone number is not registered in my name. Even if I buy a tracfone and register the account under the stealth name, same issue.
Can someone please help me access my money so I can get my paypal $$ out.
Please! Thanks.

There is no cure if you dont have access to the number when you created the account, you cant add a number later. You need to call in and wiggle the best you can but hope is not very high.

I am trying to verify a US PP account without having to buy a SIM card, did anyone tried using Plivo or Nexmo for PayPal phone verification? Which services do you suggest?

| This is what's called "poor planning", next time you open a Stealth Account....be sure to have a valid method for getting your funds out.

their system so that you can verify with that number, its usually 24 hrs.
i'm assuming most of are verify phone when you try to add bank?

It's important to have the number used when registering your paypal account, this seems to be the best option.
It's either a number that matches public records, and with stealth that's usually not an option or the number used when registering

HI there, I've had my stealth account for two years and it's working great. I received a notice from ebay when I logged in this morning, prompting me to verify my phone number to keep records current. I skipped the option, but am concerned I will have to do this at some point. It also gave me the option to click "Don't have a phone". Please advise. Thank you! |

I was going to just get some cheap tracfones for new accounts but what your saying above I can just buy more SIM cards for a $1 and switch between numbers on my same phone ? Sounds good.
