A couple of weeks ago I came across something that made me try to give it another shot at linking my AMEX to PayPal again and to my surprise it worked! I made a few purchases from Ebay and Walmart and everything went smoothly. So, I thought I should let you guys know.
Thanks for the info
What did you use as country && address in the Paypal account?
I signed up for PayPal Bahrain since AMEX is issued from there. as for the address I just use my US shipping address.
make sure to verify/confirm you card after adding it.
As mentioned in another thread, they will suspend your account eventually; happened to me and all my friends as well. We all have Amex cards.
Dear Karim ,

It appears that you currently reside in a country that we don't offer service in at this time. Establishing our service in each new country involves complex changes due to different regulations in each of these countries. We're working hard to expand our services as rapidly as possible.

Due to this, we'd like to begin parting ways in a manner that is least disruptive to your business.

You may use the remaining account balance to provide refunds to your buyers if necessary.

Due to the potential risk of chargebacks and other reversals, the money in your PayPal account balance will be held for 180 days from the date the limitation was originally placed on the account. After 180 days, you will be notified by email with information on how to collect your remaining money.

Unfortunately, there are no further appeals being allowed on your account.
Money in your PayPal account will be held for 180 days. After 180 days, we'll email you information on how to receive your money.

We regret any inconvenience this may cause.

Any bank or credit card information on your PayPal account can no longer be removed. Your personally identifiable information will not be used by us nor shared with third parties, except to assist law enforcement as required by law. As an additional safety precaution, the financial details registered on your account cannot be used on any future PayPal account.
Yours sincerely,
Audrey

xazbrat wrote Ebay will be moving away from paypal (even though they created it) and move to a dutch processing company called Adyen. I think there is a better shot that this gets approved in Lebanon than paypal ever had since this company also facilitates payments for netflix and Uber.

So if you can wait a bit, ebay may be available here.

Fun fact, Paypal was created by Elon Musk in 2000 and later acquired by ebay in 2002 until 2014.
It is a myth, Musk ventures are very dark in depth, if you look closer, and he did not created it.

WHAT THE F***, what should I do now?!!
NuclearVision wrotewhy would you give anyone your card info?
it seemed like a legit site, no payment has been done so far tho.
know what? Just leave it, i'm guessing it has 0 intl limit or an LbP card.
They most likely ddidn't figure our how to use it.

it has 25 USD limit per month, should I spend it :/
They probably have a big list to go through and haven't reached your card yet.
Did you put your card as a payment method ?
If that's the case it should have been charged immediately for relevant fees right?
Since it didn't, i assume something fishy is happening, not that i would trust this website in first place.
I advise you to call your bank first thing in the morning and tell them it was stolen and cancel it.
Alright man thanks! btw did anyone find a way to get a paypal account in Lebanon? I have a 20$ payment and the only option available is PayPal.

Just a piece of advice, spend your money away from politics, you're free to do whatever you want ofc, not judging you or anything.
