Is it a UK bank?

Is it a physical and not virtual bank?

Is it linked to another paypal account?

Does your bank account name and paypal account name match?

Mine is a UK bank and it’s a physical bank. I have tried to make another account with the same bank and credit card but it says it can’t process the request. Really annoying as I am trying to withdraw the money to my bank.

Was your previous account limited?

Did you remove your bank account / card from your previous bank account?

Was your previous account closed?

Does the name on your bank account match the name on your paypal account?

I found a solution rather than a fix. Do a send money to friends or family ie son,daughter,partner or even friends or a neighbour. Pay into there account and get then to transfer it to you via banking app. Its an alternative if you want or need your money
