Multiple accounts internationally with one email address???

[andoc]

Hi Paypal,

Just curious where we are at with the ability to have multiple paypal accounts in different countries depending on where you live that you can nominate when making a purchase?

For example:

I live in Canada but grew up in Australia.  I spend time in both countries and have funds in bank accounts in both.  Sometimes I want to purchase items on ebay whilst in Australia and sometimes in Canada.  I would like the ability to nominate which account Paypal pulls my funds from.  Right now when I purchase on ebay Canada, Paypal pulls funds from my Australian bank account which incurs extra charges.

Is there any solutions out there ..... or an alternative option?

Any help greatly appreciated.

Cheers

These are good questions humanshado!  I would also like to know the answer to those questions 🙂

I've decided to bite the bullet and create a second email address, although it is frustrating.

Cheers

I'll probably let my PP account run down and go for an alternative. Going through a new account with all the card, account and address verification despite me still being me is too much of a hassle. I move to a new country every few years and see myself ending up with a double-digit no of PP accounts - with individual passwords let alone a double-digit no of emails addresses just to keep PP going. If PP cannot make my life simpler, there are plenty of alternatives that will.

Hello.

Just to clarify on this as i am in a similar situation.

I have a paypal UK Business account which i have had over 10 years. I now split my time between the UK and Ireland and have residences, bank accounts and debit cards in both countries. I understood having 2 paypal accounts 1 personal 1 business was allowed so i opened a personal account from Ireland. Just double checking this is all good and above board. i sent a email asking for clarification and got no reply but a followup asking me on the CS expierience!

Thanks alot.
