Not sure if this is the right thread to post this in so sorry if it is incorrect.

I have been using my paypal for a while before I was 18 so I have used a fake DOB. My account is not verified with ID because obviously my DOB would not be correct. I am 18 now so I was wondering if I should just make a new paypal account which is legitimate and forget about my old one? I do not want to be in a position where I am trying to withdraw money and they ask for ID verification.

Anyone got any advice? Cheers

Yes, do so. I did that when I turned 18 for the exact same reason. You can have multiple PayPal accounts so if you want, you can just make that one a business account and create another as a personal (or vice versa).

You certainly can close a PayPal account. The setting Is In fact In your Account Options, accordingly named "Close your account". This Is on the grounds that there are no unresolved Issues, nor any pending/outstanding funds.

Given It's Irreversible, be sure you're absolutely certain with your decision. In answer to the OP's concern and as already mentioned, start fresh with a new account.

The first step is to clear the cookies for this there are many softwares like ccleaner.
Use a different email address and use different phone number.
New ip address eg: public Wi-Fi or vpn.

I'm using it for legitimate purposes though nothing dodgy, do I still need to clear cookies etc..?
