Ok, this is strange.
The bank account is not linked to any other account and after entering the information I get the dreaded "sorry, your action cannot be completed..." message.
Is there something in particular that triggers this?

UPDATE: I removed by existing bank account from my old account and closed the Paypal account.
When I tried to add the bank account to my new business Paypal account, I got the message that it couldn't be done because it was "previously registered to another account".
Previously?? Really? So if you EVER use a bank account on any Paypal account, you can NEVER use it on a different one even if it is no longer registered to any account???
How do I resolve this?
