Used different name, can’t verify address.

I used a different name to create account, but used my email and bank account and verified both of them. Can’t use my account unless I verify my address which I can’t do under that name. PayPal holding funds, but won’t tell me who to talk to to access them.

You can only change a name on a paypal account for a minor typo OR for legal reasons.

As you used a fake name you would never be able to verify that account and its now useless to you.
