    PayPal won't verify my identity?

    Since I'm new on clraik, I decided to make a PayPal account, but I'm not allowed to add funds to the account because my identity isn't verified. I know some other people online have had this problem, but I can't really find any helpful information about how to resolve my issue.

    I would feel a little more comfortable discussing details privately if anyone has heard of this and might have an answer or at least something for me to try! I'll gladly give rep, though I don't have much of course, I just really don't know what to do!

    Thanks for reading c:


    EDIT: Apparently the issue is that I recently turned 18, so PayPal is having issues with me being young x.x It looks like I'll have to send them documentation to verify my identy ugh! Thanks so much for helping me!

    If a mod wants to come along and close this, that's cool ^^

    Paypal is zero help unless you call them lol. And if you used any fake information, they won't help.

    That's what I've heard, but my friend didn't have to, so I didn't initially, but that might be the next thing to try!

    And I've also used all of my real information, so that can't be an issue >.<

    EDIT: Linking my bank didn't help, I've given them all the information they've asked for, but still no dice x.x I think I might just wait for it to fix itself and then call in a few days if it isn't resolved.

    Other solution:
    Australia and NZ paypals dont need to be verified to have funds in them. They also dont check the address, or name.

    Unless they changed that.

    Is that even worth it if I'm from the US? How are they different?

    I think theres a limit to how much money you can send/recieve. But thats the only difference that I remember.

    Could you possibly post a screenshot (with all of your information blurred out) of the screen you see where they're requesting information?
