Hi David - thanks for your help - Paypal agents asked me to use the section where it says name change, but didnt say or know not to try the name change at this stage -this sets out on the road of sending photo ID,s etc At later various stages (after many exchanges of emails) - I was told to upgrade to a business account then the name change would be easy - did this but when I tried to change my name again it set me off on the ID route again- I eventually phoned a paypal agent who told me there was absolutely no other way of getting the name changed other than submitting photo ID etc qouting Security /European laws etc etc-- In desparation I did this - only to get a phone call from a knowledgable chap in the US asking why I,ve done this ?? He told me that by changing to a business account my paypal invoice would autumatically be in the company name-(something all previous agents said was not possible ) and in line with the steps you gave- I,m OK now but all this hastle was caused by misinformation given by paypal agents - had they given me the same sort of answer as yours life would have been less stressfull
