I have a Paypal account pending an ID check for lifting the receiving limits. When I set it up I put what could be interpreted as initials for my first name. When I come to change it to a proper name with the same first letter PP say it's a major change so it can't be done without contacting them. I realise now this was a mistake. What should I do? Try to get it changed or do the ID check anyway? Has anyone else done something like this?

When I created my PP I used some random names but when it comes to id check, I spoke to the lady on phone and explained that my name wasn't spelt very well in the account. She changed it to what I have on the id. No trouble.
it depends on what you did, you mean c.c instead of cee-cee which is nickname for cecilia ?
It would be ok on id check, but cannot be sure, depends on how they decide to interprete it, but a nickname or something is explainable, might be good to get on phone first and make the story casual and good.....
