How to change nationality (residence is the same)

Good day,

 

I opened a UK PayPal account in 2009. I was a UK resident but not a UK national then. Since then I have naturalised and become a UK national. I am still a UK resident.

 

How can I update my nationality to match my UK ID? Tried to contact Support but they did not provide any solution.

 

If the only way is through closing this account and opening a new account, what is going to happen with PayPal Credit I currently use?

 

Many thanks!

You don’t need to. You’re UK resident, so you have a UK account and that’s the end of it. You’re free to upload it if PayPal ever limits your account to verify identity.


Kudos & Solved are greatly appreciated. 🙂
