I can't add my bank account.

[jukesde]

Hi,

Everytime I try to add my bank account I receive this error message:

"We were unable to process your bank account registration at this time. We apologise for the inconvenience. Please try again at a later date."

Talking to paypal support just provides me with generic advice on adding my account.

I know how to add the account, and I have tried the 2 different methods that support have suggested, but still it does not work.

My bank account has never been linked to another paypal account. 

If somehow paypal could tell me why I receive this error, then I could do something about it. But at the moment, the only answer I receieve is telling me how to add the account (which obviously I know how to do, else I wouldn't get as far as receiving the error!)

Any help would be great.

thanks,

David

You will need to change your country. I had to open a new account and it worked. 

Your address might be a different country than the country your recipient bank acc is from.

I have the same problem. The message I had (many times):

We were unable to process your bank account registration at this time. We apologize for the inconvenience. Please try again at a later date.

Why? Why it could work "a later date" and not now?

My bank account is from Payoneer, Bank of America, USA.

My Paypal account has my country: Argentina.

I think it is a common association: PayPal, Payoneer account, there are many post from users around the world adding Payoneer bank account to Paypal. 

Even Payoneer mentioned it:

http://www.payoneer.com/payment-services/en/paypal/

with an image about "Add a bank account" in Paypal

Any cue? Why that message? Why "try later"?

I could add my account asking via direct message to Twitter account @askpaypal

I explained my case, give them my email address, and then they change something in my account, so I could add my USA bank account.

Now, I have a difference in names (my Bank account, and Paypal). I went to profile, change name, uploaded a photo id document. I hope paypal will change my name

Thanks!
