@ZekeDeEspanada no worries. it was actually really nice of you to try to help us & you've been really responsive :-). It's PP's fault. You're so lucky that you looked into this & was able to find a solution. I was told by PayPal that I had no choice 3 years ago so let it drop. Is there a way I can DM you?

@ZekeDeEspanada Paypal CA definitely cracked down. Both my friend & I tried it using different bank accounts (both checking & savings) & kept getting the same error message. ARGH!

PP (ca) must've tightened up that loophole. I opened a new PP (ca) account. Got an error msg saying it won't allow me to link a US bank account.

@PepperMill how long ago did you do this? I'm curious because I'm not sure if it's my US bank account that's the issue or if it's PayPal.

@ZekeDeEspanadathanks! I'll give it a try. Hope it works. So annoying that PP canada does this. There should be a class action lawsuit. I wonder if PayPal in other countries does this.

@ZekeDeEspanada Not sure if you saw my reply / questions: "so set up a new Paypal (canada) account but link the US bank account to it? It'll allow you to connect a US bank account? May I ask when you did this?"

so set up a new Paypal (canada) account but link the US bank account to it? It'll allow you to connect a US bank account? May I ask when you did this? I"m just concerned Paypal (canada) caught on recently & stopped any US bank accounts to be linked.

I have a US bank account (as well as a US-denominated account in Canada). Paypal Canada will not allow me to link my US bank, therefore I can't withdraw USD from my Paypal Canada account. I'm also not interested in paying PP's exchange rate because I don't think I should have to pay for my own $. I already pay them a fee for incoming payments.
