paypal addresses

flogen

Hey,
I set up my paypal account a while ago when I was located in the UK and had a UK bank account, I've since moved back to Dublin and am wondering if I can put an Irish delivery address into my account or even change my settings to reflect the change?
I'm trying to order something via paypal but the only address I have is my old one, when I try to add an address I can't select any country outside the UK and as a result I can't put in Dublin either.

Do I have to have a whole new account just to put my Irish address on it? And if I do that will I not be able to use my UK based debit card account to make payments?

I think you may have to open up a whole new account. Someone correct me.

Just checked it out with paypal's help (if the search function doesn't work, then log-on, and it'll "magiclly" work), and its as Ruu said. You need to set up a new account.

thanks for that; will I be able to use my UK debit card account (which has a UK billing address) or will I have to hook it up to my Irish account?

The reason I ask is because I have some money in my UK account, and rather than go through the hassle of an international transfer I'd rather spend it straight off (it's not a hell of a lot), if I can't use it through paypal I suppose I can still use it on play or something.

I would imagine you would have to use something thats linked to your Irish bank account (the billing address thing) and to have your address show up as "confirmed" for sellers.
