Pretty simple:

  • DOB via SSN
  • They will do a small value deposit into your back account (using your credit card).
  • You will need to verify the deposit amount (this would verify your bank account)
  • You will need to let PayPal know the transaction details as they appear on your credit card statement (this will verify you as the card holder)
  • For telephone, they do a call back
  • For address, they send a code to your address which would need to be confirmed back to PayPal which would confirm your address.
