Hello everyone, I would like to clarify something...

Is it true that the process of deleting an account takes about a year? So I won't be able to create a new one right away? I just changed the country and want to create a new account.

Paypal is country specific so if you move countries you have to open another paypal account in the country you reside in and add an address / phone number / bank accounts / cards from within that country.

You should really withdraw any funds / resolve issues / remove cards and bank accounts before you move countries. If you don't then you may have problems doing so once you have moved and may need to contact customer services for help to resolve things.

You can however add a U.S bank account (not card) to 'most' other countries paypal accounts. This is because paypal is a U.S company and so allows this.

So, is it true what I wrote about the deletion process? As far as I understand, I will be able to open a new account as soon as I delete my old one by deleting the linked card before?
