Need a Real US number registered with contract from within Canada.

[Jennifer91]

So I have a paypal in my info for the last 20 years USA REGISTERED. I use to have my Canadian number attached to it. But lately they want a USA number to even enter my account. Tried on the phone for a few weeks with CS and nothing. I did try to add my US prepaid number but didn't accept it.

So I need a USA number registered with a contract to the postal code in the USA, in my name! I don't want those online numbers that get flagged or require more paper work due to it etc.

I only have Canadian ID, passport, is there a way to get a contract in the US? I don't feel like waiting 9 more months to get there to get one or 12 months.

I tried Tmobile and AT&T but due to ID they couldn't verify me on the system even with my old SSN. They also state could be due to my CC being Canadian and not originally registered to pass the payment verification with these phone companies. I know they use a special system to figure out in place thats been patched up for years.

Thank you.

Not what I'm asking for either.

I see you bought yours at a supermarket how long ago did you add it to your USA PayPal?

I'm just worried it's going to flag the system. And then request documentation because of it.

I added this tracfone may be 2 months ago,no problem receiving 2 factor verification from Paypal yesterday/
But I am in USA and been a Paypal member many years.
why do you need a US paypal account when you are in Canada,what is the difference?

I used to live there when I was younger and I'm immigrating back in the next 12 months. And I've been fully verified on that account for multiple years.

Not to mention the exchange rate and fees from a PayPal Canadian versus a PayPal American. Not to mention doing the verification process from the start and everything when I plan on leaving in a year. the account is 20+ yrs old and invoice folks for $1k+ all the time. But it's just recently they updated this. I've seen online, I'm not the only one.

So it was just a prepaid non-contract correct? Load it up before it expires like any other prepaid I would imagine.

I'm going to have the person that works for me get it for me and activated or whatever is needed. Unless it requires an ID for registration verification purposes?

I just got to make sure I get the right kind

No,it is not a prepaid non contract phpne,you actually sign up either by month or one year,
monthly fee is like 28?? depends on how much you need,.
it has a website.
It has been bought by Verizon,so if you are like me,live near Verizon service,the service is pretty good.The phone cost me like $26 ,it has a camera,you can text and call,google etc,I just use it as a phone

Ahhh nice, I need "you actually sign up either by month or one year," this part from within Canada to do, if not next time I'm visiting the states again.

This is what I need contract with full name on the address to pass there verification process. Its only for paypal will leave it in the states. With my friend who will have access to it if needed.
