    I posted the original post. I now have a PayPal account but I had to open it with a new email address and new bank details (I think that's what I did, it's been a while now) I can't get PP credit, which is fine as I don't want it, but I can sell on Ebay and pay for goods with PP which is useful.
  • Can you close your PayPal account then open another in the future? I also had a PayPal loan included in my bankruptcy

    Thanks for the update. Did you ahve to close the first PP account? I wanted to open a new one, but they say you can only have one account and they have refused to close my current acount. Please advice, I could do the same. Much apprechiated.

    I’m really sorry, I can’t remember. I know I used a different email for the PP account I have now. I think I just got away with opening a new account with a new email and using my work address and phone details, then I changed to home address later
