Changing country or removing incorrect addresses?

Hi everyone,

 

There is a lot of questions lately about changing the country that your PayPal account is registered in and also getting old or incorrect addresses removed from your PayPal account.

 

Changing Country

 

Firstly, it's not possible at the moment in order for anyone to change the country that your PayPal account is registered to. If for example you are living in the UK and you have moved to a different country, you should register a new account in the country that you have moved to and if you wish, keep your UK PayPal account open if you are planning to return to the UK.

 

Removing Incorrect Addresses

 

If you can see some addresses in your PayPal account, you would need to contact customer services directly in order for us to get the incorrect addresses removed from your account. These are gift addresses that you would have sent items to in the past and they can only be removed by customer services.

 

I hope this answers anyones questions that you may have about moving country or getting old or incorrect address removed from your PayPal account.

 

David.

Hi

 

The above is very informative, thank you.  However, I have just tried to open another Paypal Account for the country I am now living in (I would like to retain my UK account as I use Banks in both countries) and, after entering my details I found that I was directed to my UK account.. The virtual assistant advised this would be my course of action.

It would seem that I would have to close my UK account in order to open one for the country in which I am now spending most of my time. I have mailed the problem and am awaiting a response.

Hi

Spoiler
 

 

David, Thanks so much for your advice. Unfortunately, I was unable to change the country. I did try to edit it but it seems the country will not move out of England. Any additional advice would be appreciated.
