Paypal name change

The story:
21 Apr my PP account got limited
180 days later it got semi-unlocked, meaning i can now withraw funds to my bank account
to do this my bank account got to have the exact same name as my PP acount

my problem: i used initials for my last name, and to change that i got to send them my identity card, drivers licence, gas-bills etc. Pretty sure there must be an easier for such a "stupid" change.

e.g. I put Ray WJ as name instead of Ray William Johnson.

Thx in advance.

 

How much have you got in it? Because even if you do manage to change the name and add you bank account you won't be able to remove it from the PayPal account.

 

^just about 40$.
It says I can withraw to a bank account.

 

After browsing around on my limited PayPal account I was unable to find anything that could help you change your name. Your best bet to change it would be to contact PayPal by phone or email.

I managed to add my bank account to my PayPal to withdraw the funds I had in and the names were slightly different, it shouldn't really be a problem. Just remember, you can't remove the bank account once you've attached it to a limited PayPal account. (Unless you add another account.)

 

Any suggestions to which email i should mail?
