If the name on the account is fake then you may not get the option to withdraw the funds.

The account would not belong to you but to the person named on that account and you would have to provide i.d. that the name on the paypal account matched any documents that you supplied.

 

However if that is not correct and the account was limited for a policy violation and you can't add a bank account then you could request that customer services send you a cheque?

You should be able to add a U.S bank account as that is the only country that can add their bank accounts to other countries paypal accounts.

As for a cheque you would have to contact customer services and ask them to issue you with one to send in the post.

Hi @Thomas148

 

You are able to add a US bank account as @kernowlass stated. 

 

It looks like you have listed in your profile that you live in Australia. If that's the case, we do not offer the check option for Australian accounts. I apologize if this causes an inconvenience. 

 

Thanks, 

Drew
