I used to pay for a few services (Spotify, Netflix, Steam, Patreon, etc) with a Paypal account linked to a Dutch bank account. However, since I've started working I've made a Belgian bank account where I get my wages. So I made a new Paypal account linked to that Belgian bank account. The bank account is verified and after some hassle I at least managed to have Spotify Premium be billed from my new Belgian Paypal. However, I can't seem to get it working with other services. When I try to change my payment details on Netflix or Steam, pick Paypal and then log in to my Belgian one instead of my Dutch one it asks for a credit card. I never had a credit card and don't want one either, I just want it to be debited directly from my bank account like it used to do. Why am I not getting this option? I already called my bank and they said there shouldn't be any problem, and that I should contact Paypal. Sadly, customer services in the weekends here is only available in French and I don't speak French. Hopefully someone can assist me here, thank you.
I'll give you an example.
Right now, I've got a Paypal account linked to my Nintendo account. It's linked to my Dutch bank account, and when I buy something on the Nintendo Shop the money is pulled directly from my bank account through Paypal. I now want to delete that Paypal and add my new one. I can delete my old Paypal no problem, and then add my new one as well. However, when I do so, I get asked for a credit card to complete my purchase. When I then go back and re-add my old Paypal account, linked to my Dutch bank account, I can select that bank account to be used for payment and I never get asked about a credit card. What's going on here, and why can't I pick my Belgian bank account as a payment option even though I've got it activated and verified. Because the strange part is that I did eventually was able to properly add my Belgian Paypal to my Spotify without having it ask for a credit card. I have no idea what's going on and it's quite frustrating.
