PayPal Name dilemma
 

Created a PayPal and eBay in 2017

Only began selling on it recently

The name on the account is extremely awkward

I googled the name and it is non existent entirely

The first name is alright it’s just the surname

I’m at the soft EU limit so need to send docs

Example of the name would be = Rob Falkr

The “Falkr” Surname is problematic

Note - I made this account when I was 18, 3 years ago - well before I came to Aspkin was a dumb move on my part to name it that

Any advice is much appreciated

Thank you

Maybe add a letter like "e" "a" "i" to the end (or in the middle) to make it less awkward when you send in the docs

'r' is right next to 'e' on a keyboard and meaty fingers often hit the wrong key? Oops mistakes happen, tell them.

A few years ago when I submitted docs to pp they canged the name to match the docs and emailed to say so. I had used a shortened version of my first name.

Both are great options

I’m inclined to Rsots way

But LOMBOK your way seems less tension as PayPal gives that option
