Hi,
I'm having a bit of an issue with changing my name on PayPal
My full name on the ID is formed and registered on PayPal as First Name / Middle Name / Last Name (ex: A . B . C)
however, my bank only registered my name under the First Name / Last Name form only (A . BC) and this cause me a few issues when transferring funds because Middle Name doesn't exist in the bank's name form.
But when I want to correct my name form in PayPal, it requires my ID and a copy of 1 of these documents:
I don't have any of them as my name hasn't changed, and I'm not married or divorced as well, I just want to change name form
Is there any way I can change it without the above documents? Thanks
Use the “Updating your name (for example, using your full name instead of a nickname)” option.
When you choose that, then you’ll get these options for supporting documents besides photo ID:
