PayPal - All addresses gone

[Andre81]

I just wanted to send a payment to another member here and all but my own registration address in PayPal are gone. And to make it even worse, when I add a new address the name and country is no longer editable.

 

Beside the fact that the new site sucks anyway, who the hell made this retarded change?

Agreed the new site sucks. Used to be able to switch it to "classic mode" and it was back to normal but now you gotta do that every time (at least I do).

 

I'd call paypal on the phone and see if they can't help you directly with adding a confirmed address again

I tried making a payment to someone last night and today and it wont let me . Now I guess I have to call and waste a bunch of time on the phone with them .

With the impending Paypal split from Ebay, I believe they are attempting to comply with the stricter security and identity regulations applied to account holders which means all addresses must be verified and they likely will no longer allow shipment of items to one address while payment comes from another. This should reduce fraud pretty significantly for international transactions.
