I haven't accessed my PayPal account for some time.  I quit selling on eBay once they changed all the selling rules.  I was quite annoyed at the fact that I have found out that to have a PayPal account I have to have a mobile phone.  Not everyone out here has a cell phone including myself and to be honest with you, I am quite tired of everything in life depending on the use of cell phones.  Am I supposed to now buy a cell phone which I don't want or need just to access PayPal.  What a joke!  Can I use my husbands cell phone number?  I just don't know what to do.

Yes you need a mobile phone now to access paypal.

Maybe get a cheap pay as you go one?
