    i'm not entirely sure....i am verified and confirmed and i use visa electron although i'm not very clued up on how these are related.

    i think it might also relate to how long you've been using the paypal account and the card associted, although not very certain.

    its not very clear is it?

    is this cos you're still trying to find a way to pay that USA seller?

    personally i'd just accept your refund, send a nice apologetic email, hope for the best and go elsewhere

    sorry not to be more help

    Probably not; not the same system in the UK as the USa. Very few addresses are confirmed in the UK.

    have a look at 'my profile' on the paypal page, and have a look at your address, it will say confirmed by it if it is

    I'm UK confirmed and verified as well, but I only use my switch card on Ebay. So long ago, I can't remember how though.
