I wanted to make a Netflix account, but when I wanted to pay with PayPal, did you need a credit card, can somehow bypass that?
Of course you have to specify a reference account with Paypal.
Are you of legal age?
Did you enter correct data in the Paypal account, esp. Correct date of birth?
The demand for credit card, that is a security measure of Paypal
to secure the payment
to filter out minors who have cheated on a stolen date of birth an unauthorized Paypal account.
Security measures would not make sense if you could just handle them that way ;-)
Maybe I understand that now wrong. But I only pay via PayPal via direct debit and have never been asked for a credit card.
Then probably there was never any reason for DIR to take any security measures.
And a credit card if PayPal suspects that it is dealing with a minor.
And that's happening lately.
After KK, e.g. Asked if there's a suspicion that the person is not 18. (For most KK applications, a identification procedure must be carried out in which the age is checked.)
Just buy a KK. Are many free.
