Hi 

I have a PayPal account in France I have a French bank account which I use to pay in euros, I am trying to add a uk bank account so that I can pay in sterling but the site will not accept the iban number for my bank in the uk or the postcode when I try to pay by debit card it says that it only accepts five digit postcodes when my uk postcode is 6 digits?

 

Any advise appreciated regards

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

The only exception is U.S expats can add their bank accounts to other countries paypal accounts (paypal is a U.S company so they allow their citizens to do this).
