I opened a paypal account a while ago that I linked to my checking account. I upgraded it to a premier account to be able to accept credit card payments through ebay.
Since I upgraded to the premier account, I got charged some fees by paypal when I received some GPT payments. I never got charged these fees when I had a personal account.
So now, to avoid these fees I want to create a personal account that I want to link t my savings account.
A friend here on mylot told me that she did it but I don't know the details. Is it possible to give the same email address for both accounts and same password?

I believe you cannot have two accounts with the same email, since it is the email that people use to send you payments, they can't have two accounts with the same one (they wouldn't know which to put your money in). You will have to get another email address in order to open another account. You can still use the same password, but I would recommend against it for security reasons.

Thank you theproperator. I was so tired last night and I just asked this question as I didn't to wait to call paypal to get an answer.
Okay I will also use another password. Thanks!
