To get your paypal a/c verified you need to add a credit card which i did using my cousins a couple of yrs back. The other option is getting a virtual credit card by going to sites like virtualcc.in. Since paypal is a trusted site you can give your a/c info without any probs. Hope this helps!!

No its just not possible. You need a credit card or debit card or atleast a virtual cc. I dont think that nationalised indian banks issued debit card can be used online. However, you may try debit card of private banks such as ICICI, HDFC etc. Adding bank details is needed to withdraw funds and not for verification purpose.

My friend, verification of paypal account may take either a credit card or debit. Bank account is something you add usually for withdrawal only or adding of funds. I tried adding a bank account without a credit card but still they wanted a credit card but I don't have one. So, up to now, I am not a verified member yet. I'll have to wait until I have a credit card or debit card.

Paypal is a safe website and you need to have a credit card to verify your account.

Even I am from India and I too did not get my account verified. I tried with ICICI debit card but did not succeed and it still stands for verification. But that should not be a concern to receive money from the account
