Transferring an account to someone else

Hi there. 

 

I've done a rather stupid thing which i am aware i will get flamed for on here.

 

I have loaned my paypal account to a freind who was having some difficulty in taking paypaments from Ebay. Now this person has some chargebacks and claim disputes appearing on my paypal account.

 

I've already spoken to him and he has said, if i can transfer the account into his name he is fully prepared to take full control of the situation.

 

Is this something i can do, if so how?

 

I appreciate your help in advance.

 

Regards

You can't transfer a paypal account.

 

Tell him to send you the money to sort the claims.

 

However you are risking your account in being permanently limited.

Thanks for the quick reply. 

 

The account is already limited.

 

I know i should not have done this in the first place but what has happened has nothing to do with me. He is agreeing to take responsablity for the account.

but what has happened has nothing to do with me.

 

Really? Not only did you give someone your password but you actually let them use your paypal account, totally against paypal rules.

 

Then you let him do transactions that led to chargebacks and disputes.

 

Thank goodness your account is limited as it does not sound as if you should be using one.

No it won't help your situation, sometimes nothing will do that if you have got yourself into having your account limited.

 

However i have the right to reply to your comment "What has happened has nothing to do with me"..

 

Bye.
