Two PayPal accounts with same address
 

So, this is a tricky situation.

I've opened a second PayPal account with completely different details. No cookies, a different IP address, etc.

Nothing could link it to my first account... other than the postal address :doh:
That's right, stupidly enough, I've used the same postal address and tried to verify it with my real credit card.

When I noticed what I had done, it was too late.

Now since the only common details are the postal address and the billing name/address for the credit card, and this credit card was never used with the first PayPal account, can this pass as a family member trying to open another account with my credit card?

Also, PayPal allows you to open two accounts if they are premier and personal (like in this case), just don't know if this applies to different persons/same household.

My first account is verified and unlimited, plus it's really old, so I'm kinda worried.

So am I screwed? Should I verify the second account and act normal? :d Maybe change the address and delete the credit card? (tough I doubt that would make any difference now) Or forget about it and pray that they don't do anything about it?

If it's the same street address, without an apartment number, you might get away with it, if PayPal don't check if it's a single house or an apartment building.

I had situation in the past without problem.But if paypal checked might get problem.But if you have one is personal account and another is biz account,it will no problem

It's exactly the same address, including apartment number... unfortunately.


The problem is that they are registered under two different names.

24 hours later, and the first account is still okay...
