This is a continuation of this thread: (you need an account to see links)

I have a "dummy" PayPal account. I created it to avoid a chargeback that would set my bank account back. But I cannot verify the account or link my bank account to it, so I can't get the money off. I thought I'd be able to just send the money to my main PayPal, but it says I have $0 sending limit because I'm unverified. I have 1 credit card and 1 debit card and 1 bank account, which are all linked to my main PayPal...so I can't link them to a second account.

I have no way of verifying the account or my address or anything. I thought I'd be able to just request a check, but I can't unless my address is verified.

I need to money badly, and I want to be able to use this method in the future.

What should I do?

You can buy a Virtual Credit Card and link it to your dummy account. Paypal will think it's a real credit card and you'll get verified. I haven't personally used this, but I know people who have and they have been successful.

Can I do it all online?

Make a Canada or Australia Paypal account. It lets you send without verifying.

Yes, I know that for the future. But right now I need to get the money off the one I have now.

Can this be done if you're not in Canada/AUS?

Yeah I'm in the US and I have an AUS acc.
Oh and you have to be careful with having multiple accounts.. Paypal says in their ToS that they can terminate all your accounts if you have multiple accounts..

I'm pretty sure it's all online, but I don't know too much about it.

I'd prefer not to spend any money to get this to work.

You could try verifying with a prepaid visa card or something?
