Activity: 0% Longevity: 55% | | Prepaid card
Having read page 19 on the stealth guide, it states that a prepaid card is required. If I obtain a new bank account, I do not see the reason behind a prepaid card. If anyone knows why it's required then please say, as I don't see why it's required. And also, I have purchased a Vodafone R207 MiFi device to create a mobile data hotspot for my factory reset laptop. Would it be safe to check my account on my banned IP (Not log-in, just 'See seller's items'), if not, what is the cheapest/safest method as I do not want to spend too much on mobile data monthly. Many thanks.

You cannot use a real life card. It will fail the AVS check.
Entropay will bypass the AVS check, so we use that.

You then use funds from your entropay account to make the virtual card.
Then, you simply add the numbers of that card to paypal. No need for names. |

thanks | Yes...sign up with real info. Then create a.sub card.
Then you just give the numbers of this sub card to paypal. No names and addresses are needed to be given. Just give them the numbers of the sub card :-)

(Using an address 70 miles away) | Verify and.confirm paypal before.selling. Thats how i.operate.
Not.entirely.sure if i agree with.selling.after.a.couple of days.Not to.mention, its xmas, a bad time to start.selling on a.new.account.
My.advice, passed from GB, is to.create account and give it.some browsing.history over.xmas.and then start selling after :-)

Do think about an address in terms of how youll manage returns. Ideally your address needs tobbe accessible

Guide does state about friend/family addresses but this has been revamped with forum info...you should use under stealth addresses - e.g. po box.
UK is a bit tricky with the manual review and electoral database, etc - as long as grandma is in the know...and allows for it....worth considering I would say
