007hunter Posted February 8, 2006 Report Share Posted February 8, 2006 I just bought something off ebay and the sellers policy is that he requires my address on paypal to be verified. Does anyone know how to do this? I searched all over Paypal and can't find anything on it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WHISKEYSWAMP Posted February 8, 2006 Report Share Posted February 8, 2006 Re: Paypal question Your verified or confirmed shipping address is whatever billing address is linked to your credit card or bank account you use for paypal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unioncountyslayer Posted February 8, 2006 Report Share Posted February 8, 2006 Re: Paypal question Have you set up a Paypal account? If not you need to do that first. If you already have go to paypal.com and click on the my paypal icon and fill in or edit your info. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WHISKEYSWAMP Posted February 8, 2006 Report Share Posted February 8, 2006 Re: Paypal question Not sure what the problem is then. Go to the help section in paypal... then look under "account basics" and then "verification". Maybe something in there will help you out.

HuntingInMaine Posted February 8, 2006 Report Share Posted February 8, 2006 Re: Paypal question This is what I found on Paypal's site.... How do I confirm my address? To confirm your address, you will first need to add a credit card to your PayPal account. If your credit card company supports the Address Verification System, PayPal will check that the address you provided for your account matches the billing address that your credit card company has on file. You may be required to complete the Expanded Use enrollment process, to activate your credit card. Your address may be confirmed after the Expanded Use enrollment process has been successfully completed. Please note that because not all credit card companies are currently able to confirm an address, only some UK and Canadian addresses may be confirmed at this time. If you need to verify yourself then you have to add a bank account....it's all a pain, but with all the fraud out there it's necessary. Hope that helps!

[/ QUOTE ] I hate to say it, but that's not what the question was. It wasn't about a confirmed address, it is about a verified address. There is a difference. A verified address is simple. You have to purchase 4 items through PayPal on Ebay in order for them to consider your address verified. That's all. You have to have 4 positive feedback in order to have this as well.
