Account limitations due to not being 18

[Laye6]

My account is limited because I am not 18 or over my email didn’t say anything about having a permanent account limitation so if I change my name to my fathers name who is over 18 well this lift the account limitation it at the time and not over 18 yet so is this possible for me to do because I have money in my PayPal account that I need to get ice at my address and I’m about to send my father’s passport so I can get this problem resolved if anyone can you please tell me if this will lift my account imitations please reply to this as soon as possible thank you.

You can't change the name on a personal paypal account from one person to another.

Paypal does not allow account holders under the age of 18.

PayPal asks for a birth date when you register so whilst you can make a PayPal account with false information the account will need to be verified to accept funds into your balance or lift any limits.

As you would be unable to verify your account it would be permanently locked for further use.
Minors can’t enter legal contracts so you may not have any recourse to get your money back until you were 18, unless customer services allow you to transfer the funds to a parents account, not guaranteed however.

You would never be able to use that illegally opened underage account again but once 18 Paypal may allow you to do a withdrawal of funds from that account.

OR they may allow you to open a new account and transfer the funds across for you. The latter option is not guaranteed as you have already broken their rules once but you should get one of those options.
