How do I set up a personal paypal account when my partner and I already have an account?  When I try to open my own account Paypal tells me I already have an account.

Did you use a different email address?

And what do you mean, you and your partner already have an account? Accounts have to be under one name in general, unless its a business account with partners added but there still has to be one primary account holder.

 

Each user is allowed one business and one personal account.

Hi @sharpiemarker sharpiemarker,

I'm not sure how the two people on the account occurred.  I set it up many many years ago, and over time, it seems to have morphed into a joint account!
