paypal charity account?
 

Hi, my new paypal account has registered as a charity, I chose the non profit option so I expect thats why.
They are now asking for tax exemption proof and business type proof etc
What is the easiest way out of this? Can I carry this on or should I change the account type?

You have to either provide the documentation or switch the type. Charity is BIG verification procedure since the potential for fraud is huge.

Definite No No - You need to be registered with the Charity Commission to work that one

GTran on the topic of charity - send something ova =)

Yes this is because you chose 'non-profit'.

Best thing to do is email or phone PayPal explaining, they will likely give you the chance to change it.
