That is not acceptable proof you need.............
Before sending us anything, be sure your document:
- Is legible.
- Shows all 4 corners of the page.
- Doesn’t have information blocked or blacked out.
- Matches the information on your PayPal account.
We accept copies of the following documents as proof of identity:
- Your ID card
- Your driver’s license (the plastic card, not the official letter)
- Your Passport
- Other photo ID issued by a government body

And I got my money in the account and i cant even withdraw that or send it so is my money gone or how can i get it back? because now its just feels like paypal stole money from me and i cant even get it

Proof of Address
A proof of address document confirms where you live. This document must show your full name and residential address. We can only confirm physical addresses, not PO Box addresses.
As a Proof of Address we can accept one of the following document:
- Utility bills (phone and broadband services, petrol, water, electricity, etc.)
- Financial statements
- Insurance Letters/Statements
- Your driving licence (front and back)
- Your payslip
- Government Issued Documents and Letters
