I need a personal Paypal account for purposes other than running my business, does anyone know if one is permitted to do this on Paypal. I would need to be using the same credit card, or bank account. I apologise for asking here, but I cannot access Paypal help in English, it reads my flippin IP and makes me use the Spanish version, which means nothing to me. Help please?

Hi Ritz! I ampretty certain that you can. I have seen other users in yuor same condition on here wo have said they have two - one for business and one for private affairs. If you put .com at the end are you sure you still read it in Spanish? I can access it in both English and Italian here.

Found this Ritz even without logging in: [i][b]"Can I have a PayPal Personal and a Premier/Business Account? Question : Answer : Yes, PayPal users can have one Personal account and one Premier or Business account. Each account needs to have a unique email address, bank account and credit card."[/b][/i] https://www.paypal.com/helpcenter/main.jsp;jsessionid=KkyGV0vzwFJVv8k0FV01Tn4bhG0nrNn7P2Vgpj8lPcb6HhQy426H!555067618?locale=en_US&_dyncharset=UTF-8&countrycode=US&cmd=_help&serverInstance=9005&t=solutionTab&ft=browseTab&ps=solutionPanels&solutionTopic=800042&solutionId=11858&isSrch=Yes

yes you can have two accounts I do. I you want to have them send your money from the paypal to your bank account then you will have to have two different bank accounts.

Not if you dont have 2 bank accounts. I have 2 accounts with Paypal but I also have 2 back accounts & they each go to one. Hope this helps a bit...

I am pretty sure you can only have one account per each bank card. I have two accounts, but one is using my personal bank cards and the other is using my business bank cards. I had to use two different email addresses for setting it all up.
