Changing my name

[Splashgod]

Hello everyone!

I want to change my name, because in the process of making this profile i was afraid to give my real name. But now i want to change it to my real name, and i can upload photo of my passport. But paypal requires 1 type of any other documents that will confirm my adress, but i ain't got one. What can i do?

If the name on the account is not a name that was ever your legal name, it is not likely that a name change will be possible. Names can be changed on an account in the following circumstances:

A legal name change

A minor misspelling

And in the case of an account for a registered business, a change in the designated contact for the company.

Changing from a fictitious name (or, as in your case, a name unrelated to your legal name) to a legally recognized name is not something that is supported. If the account is not currently limited, you may wish to close the account and open an account using the correct information.

Thanks for the answer. I've decided to close this account and create new one

But i can't even remove my card now. If i will close that account, my card will be automatically removed?
