PayPal Australia Account - Can I add a UK bank account?

[stephmcg]

Hi,

I was wondering whether anyone has had any success with adding a UK bank account to an existing Australian PayPal account.

I have moved to the UK and would like to have PayPal going to put funds straight into my UK bank account.

If anyone could help out that would be greatly appreciated.

(PS. I have already tried setting up a UK PayPal account, but it won't accept my email address as it is used for my Australian account)

Paypal is country specific so if you move country you have to open another paypal account in that country and add an address / phone number / and bank accounts from within that country.

Yeah, I thought so, but I would like PayPal to be a little more lenient on the email address front, oh well, I'll just create another gmail account specifically for registering a UK PayPal account.

Thanks @kernowlass 🙂
