I have an Australian PayPal which I used to upload money directly to from my Australian Bank Account, no need for a Credit Card, easy-peasy! Made 340+ transactions and assumed I could keep using it here keeping my 100% rating...
But once here; I tried linking my Philippines Bank Account to it (Aussie PayPal) in place of my Australian Bank Account (which I can no longer use) and no go!
So enquired to PayPal who told me NO GO! CANNOT DO! Open a Philippines PayPal account and use that instead! So that I did, only to be thwarted by the process of topping up my PayPal account, which means I need to have a Credit Card (MasterCard/Visa) to be able to upload money to my Philippines PayPal account.
Went back to the Bank to speak to the Manager regards PayPal and asked if I could link a Debit Card to my Account and was told I cannot do that. I need to open another Bank Account and then apply for the Card to link it to the PayPal/Bank accounts so I can then upload to my Philippines PayPal account.
There just does not seem to be any easy way around it but to do it how PayPal have told me to do it, meaning a lot of BS opening a separate account, applying and linking a card etc just to add credit to my PayPal account here.
If I did not prefer to buy better quality online compared to what is available here, I would simply close it all down and walk away, but I would like to purchase good quality name brand items from time to time so looks like I will just need to go ahead and open the account, apply for the Card then link it to my Philippines PayPal account and then HOPE it all works...

Don't even get me started there
I have my Paypal from Oz which I always uploaded money from my Bank Account, but my Pension is now paid directly into my Philippines Bank account, so I messaged Paypal to try and change my Oz Paypal to the Philipppines/Bank etc, no go, needed to open a new Paypal, so did that, but no way can I upload from my Bank Account like my Oz Paypal, now I need to get a Credit Card so I can upload money to my Philippines Paypal, but to do that I need to open a new Bank Account and link a card to it or some BS like that, I do not know WHY Paypal is different here than in the West where you can just simply upload from your Bank Account to have credit in your Paypal account...

Will wait until it is closer to 'payday' before I try and order... Thanks for your reply.
