Yeah, I was just wondering that because I have like 25$ in it, and I have no way of verifying it. Because I dont have a bank account, and my parents will let me use there credit card, but were not the same last name LOL.

For unverfied accounts, you have a spending limit. But it shouldn't be $0, it should be alot more.

I meant for testing purposes, see if that has a higher spending limit. If it does; there's something wrong with your current account. (Maybe it got suspended, etc.)

Which country are you from?

I'd used paypal for over a year, until I hit my £1500 limit and was forced to go get a Visa from my bank.

18, and you don't have a bank account? Don't you work? :p

Anyways, say you don't have one. Don't hang up on them.

£1500 is much more than I thought, I thought the usual spending limit would be £100.

Anyway, you should get a bank account, my parents opened my first bank account when I was 10 and every 2 months they would deposit a few hundred in it so that when I turned 18 I had a nice sum of money with my name on it just sitting there waiting for me.
