Thank you very much for your prompt reply Kernowlass. I don't think I explained my situation clearly - I'm a Brit living abroad.  Does Paypal seriously expect me to close down my assets in the UK and not use UK bank accounts to pay for items in pounds sterling?  And surely it would be illegal to not have my permanent address in France registered with my UK banks?  But then again, maybe I'm mistaken...  ...

Hi, I have a French paypal account, but I can't add a UK (pounds) credit card despite the card being registered to a French address. I was told to open a UK paypal account but I only have one e-mail address and when I enter this, I am automatically redirected to the French site.  I have been trying to contact someone at Paypal to understand what to do, but find myself on a constant loop with an automated telephone service. Do I have to set up a dummy e-mail account just to be able to set up a second Paypal account? Will I be able to enter a UK credit card's details even though it is registered to a French address?   Please, please help! Thank you. ... View more
