Hi, 

 

I have just moved from Australia to the United Kingdom.  I'm being asked for a confirmation code to be sent to my number.  I have a new UK mobile number which I'm only able to add the number, not the country code.

 

How can I change my phone number to commence with +44

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

You are supposed to withdraw any funds / resolve issues / remove cards and bank accounts before you leave your old country. If you don't then you may have problems doing so once you have moved.

Kudos / Solution appreciated.

Me too... PayPal's sms with the code just doesn't seem to work. And I hate this community issues solving, as nobody here can really know why it is not working!

1. Are you directly saying a card details, bank account that has been used on a previous PayPal account can be re-used in a new PayPal account. 2. Do I really have to close the old PayPal account, after I removed the details and used it on a new PayPal account
