hey mates

 

I'm korean who is studing english in oxford for 6months

My laptop is broken down so I had to buy new one.

But I didn't want to buy new one since another laptop is waiting for in my country so I decided to buy used laptop in EBAY.

Then Ebay asked me to use paypal so I made an account. Until that moment, Everything was fine.

Suddenely, Paypal request me to confirm my credit card.

When I got into resloution centre, I wanted to confirm my credit card but I couldn't find the way to resolve my problem.

It just keep showing this message.

 

"To confirm you are the credit card owner, we'll charge a small amount to your credit card. After you confirm the amount, we'll credit your PayPal account for the amount charged."

 

Then How could I confirm the amount? Actually My credit card is realesed in my country, so I can't do anything. I heard that Paypal will send a code to my credit card transaction statement, Then do I need to wait until my statement come to my homecountry house? I found some information through korean search engine, They told me Paypal will send me a text message when the transaction is confirmed. But I can't gat the message because I got new phone number cuz I use 3 now. I have felt frustrated for a week because of this freakin stupid Paypal. Can anyone help me? It would be grateful if you help me.

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