i am a young enterprenuer in NIgeria with a good business called lucydotng , Paypal makes business easy for me and I like it but paypal keeps blocking my payments and delaying on my email requests, it annoying. I wonder if its verification issues, Nigeria is a big market for paypal i dont see why they arent here.

Residents of Nigeria have limited PayPal functions, basically all you can do is Send funds.   (Depending on a coutries banking rules and regulations can affect what services can be offered.)

really sad but my case is kind of perculiar, my friend and I who use same bank get to use their local debit and dollar card issued by the banks,my friend gets to use his, i cant still.  After a lot disspointments although a few times it worked,i went to apply for a dollar debit card and it took over 50 trials on different days to have it approved. Now that its approved i cant pay for anything via paypal, paypal says i check to resolve issue, i check and no resolve issue to be addressed, i send emails, i dont get reply , a lot of Nigerians want to use paypal for legit reasons,a lot. Paypal should make it easy for us and watch their market share boom.

Nigerians do a lot of payments even with this retrictions.

I got this mail perhaps in response to my complaints here or my numerous mails, thanks Paypal. I did as instructed below but i didnt find any notification icon at the top of page when i logged in, so i cant resolve the issue and i cant get to reply the mail that sent the instruction, so a super brick wall. Guess ill just have to find an alternative sigh

 

Here's how to complete FATCA:
   
1. Log in to your PayPal account.
2. Click the Notifications icon at the top of the page and follow the link.
3. Confirm your tax status.
4. Input your personal or business information as requested.
