I live in the USA. I would like to and a UK bank account to my USA pay pal account.

I am unable to do this as pay pal rejects my request. They require 9 digits in a bank sort code. My UK bank sort code has only 8 digits. 

Anyone run across the problem and if so were you able to solve it. 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.


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