What should i do guys?

Ok, heres the scenario....

I have signed up for paypal weeks ago if my mothers name, all fine and dandy no limitations, however i have hit the £1900 limit and now they want docs etc.

So, what should i do because i have docs but there is an issue with them....

I signed up with her original surname, but on her passport and driving licence it shows her married surname (she is now divorced and back to original surname).

The documents for address is not a problem, i can sort that.

Its just the photo proof im stuck with? Should i upload a birth certificate instead or would i need to ring them and ask if this was ok?

when uploaded docs such as a passport, do paypal check anything on it in a system? such as passport number etc?

[oompaloompa]

do they check passport number, no they cannot match a number to a name, they are not passport agency obviously, however they would have access to algorithms that would show if it was not correct numbers or correct number to name code at the bottom with the little arrows...

you can blank out ref numbers anyway on any doc, sending a complete full colour doc is madness anyway, I would suggest you always blank out a couple of digits at least if you are sending your own docs, they have no right to that, they are not a gov agency, and we dont know their checks and balances are completely tight.

[J3OEF]

so if i blank out some digits on the passport they cannot question that?

by that i mean the very last line on the passport or shud i do more then that?

[J3OEF]

but im more then within my rights to blank some out and they should know this and be aware that some people do this?

[J3OEF]

thats fine

thanks

another question here....

In paypal, the address is made up, BUT does not exsists, the postcode exsists but not the street name. BUT on paypal, my address is home confirmed so it says.....

Question is, do i leave it as is or update my address in paypal to a real one with real postcode and go from their? or is this risky considering i would then upload docs?

With regards to passport, i have done it and blanked out some details, do i now need to jumble up arrows / letters / numbers at the bottom?

[oompaloompa]

jumble arrows, ok that isnt to be talked about on forum - but no...its a real passport right, well delete a portion of arrowed bit, if you want.... for YOUR security....

ok address that doesnt exist, come across this myself, its a risk, if you add another one you can be flagged, if you leave it and submit info, they can say it does not exist as they looked it up and postcode doesnt match road.

In theory you can add another address, as you are not limited, so its your choice.

Blather it everywhere why dont you.

A drivers licence would work much better much quicker.

ANy more info pm me

from what I understood GB, it was ok to add passport as name is correct, so seemed simpler....

there is just an bit of an address issue....
