Using different currencies

[selhurst42]

Hi,

I have a Paypal account linked to my Australian bank account and do my transfers in Australian dollars. I am back in England for a while and will sell things on ebay so I want the transactions in British pounds. I know how to do that but can I want to transfer the money to an English account. Is it possible to do that?

Thanks

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 / and bank accounts from within that country.

You are supposed to withdraw any funds / resolve issues / remove cards and bank accounts before you leave your old country. If you don't then you may have problems doing so once you have moved.

You are also allowed to have 2 Paypal accounts (in each country) as long as x1 is personal and the other x1 is business.

Thanks for that.
