Nope.   With other forums, you can simply open another forum account however, since this forum is linked to your PayPal Account, it's an issue.   There's not even a way to contact a Forum Moderator directly unless you post a new question for all to see.

Good morning.

 

First time here. Am I reading this correct, that we cannot change our screen name due to big fingers creating a typo?

 

Thanks

Apparantly the only way to get a new Screen Name is by opening a new account and to open a new account you need a new credit card as the same card can not be used twice.

Hi All,

 

It is true that you cannot change your "handle" yourself. If you absolutely need to have the ID changed, a moderator or administrator has the ability to change it for you.

Not to be a bummer but i'm not having the best success with Pay Pal's customer service. Not changing your screen name is lame and not have a live person to contact is more lame and employees being gone on vacation for 1 1/2 is beyond lame. Ok, bye bye.

As you can see        I created this handle in a moment of frustration. How do I get to a Mod before I get my hand slapped?

 

Thanks
