Add Credit or Debit Card to Paypal
 

I've an account which I intend to keep as long as possible, Can I add a Add my own Credit or Debit Card to confirm paypal or does it have to be vcc ?? Do they like to match the names on cards not bank accounts ??

Many Thanks

If it is a stealth account, it has to be a VCC. Names always have to match on real life cards.

Bank accounts they do not, although there are exception. Never let PP withdraw from your bank account

If that is your aim ( the bold type) avoid using the bank issued cards.

Go for the vcc. That gives you a better layer of stealth protection.

Good Luck

May I ask a question or two on this subject please.

I've just been asked to provide a credit or debit card.

1) Do Paypal match up the name on the entropay account?

2) When signing up for an Entropay account do I use my personal details, or my stealth details?

3) It is better to buy a VCC from someone on here, who knows what they're doing when it comes to these things, or open an account myself?

Many thanks for your help.

Further to our discussion via PM, I think you will find Entropay won't work for that limitation. I don't know what card will, but I and several other members have had issues using Entropay with that particular limitation.

Before anyone jumps in and claims Entropay DOES work with UK Paypal - yes, it does. The issue was with this specific "Confirm Location" limitation.

If Entropay does now work, please update the thread. :)

This is the email I got from Paypal. Changed the address on eBay yesterday afternoon, then got this this morning.
