My daughter has set up her own paypal account to sell on ebay and has been asked to confirm email address by clicking link but link doesnt work.  Have received emails from paypal so why do I need to confirm it?  in addition when I log in my account says "welcome Lynn".  When she logs in her account is called "Lynn Pyman" - which is me!   How is that?    We have our own separate accounts.  Thanks

well i am as confused as you are.

 

i think you will need to phone customer services.

 

Click on the words "Contact us" at the bottom of most paypal pages or in your paypal account summary > click on the "call us" option on the left (fees "may" apply so check the cost with your phone tariff first, as you sometimes have to wait a while to connect).

When you get through don't select any options just hang on till you get transfered to an agent.

 



OR have you considered contacting Customer Service via Facebook or Twitter?
