Ok so I have a Paypal account but can't verify it because I don't have a credit card or bank account I could use. Any suggestions would be very helpful. Also, if someone sends me like a virtual credit card or something I will pay you back to the best of my ability once my account is verified. Thank you in advance.

There is no other way, my friend, because the only best way to verify your identity through your bank account information. I verified my Alertpay account only by sending them te necessary documents with my local bank account information. Why cannot you just open a bank account and order a debit card in your area?

I guess so. Thanks for the info. Well I'm a little too young for that plus I don't speak Korean well and I live in Korea. But I guess I'll try to get a checking card that doubles as a debit card or something. I have a bank account but isn't the bank account verification for U.S. banks only?

Nope. Almost any legit officially registered bank in the world can get registered. I personaly sent my bank account info from Estonia to Canada for AlertPay, and they verified my account with no problems.

snam: I have a couple that may or may not work for you, not sure since it sounds like you are in another country? but if you email me, I could suggest a few places to check on; I'd list them here but I could use the "referral money" if you join...I'm always glad to help out when and if I can to others but I honestly could use the $$referral fee$$$;

I am in the same situation, a PayPal account without a credit card or bank account. Does anyone know if I would be able to order a prepaid gift card from upsidecard.com, and use that to send my money to?

I'm glad to hear that I'm not the only one in this situation. Please let me know if you find a solution. I don't know if a prepaid gift card from upsidecard.com will work, but you could always try. If it doesn't, try purchasing a prepaid Visa debit gift card. That should work. I don't think you could use it to send money to though, only to verify.

credit card, bank account, debit card are the only way to have your paypal verified and there's no other else. the only solution into this is send paypal a ticket about your situation, perhaps they could give you some options or resolution into this.
