If this is true then paypal issues is now off Nigerians' neck...hallelujah!

"...all of papal service offerings" does that include RECEIVING FUND VIA PAYPAL?

Yes you can receive fund via paypal Nigeria. If you need help contact me tochukwudike@gmail.com

@op, i already have a paypal acct, i used gtb naira master card n it has been verified bt anytime i want to pay for shoppin it always show 'erro processin orderid. Also how can i link my fist bank verve card to the same paypal acct. Tanks.

Interesting. I like the fact that Nigerian banks are starting to partner with PayPal. I'm sure very soon other banks will follow.

I would like to know if the First bank verve card can be linked to PayPal via the 'PayPal wallet'.

The following is from the FAQ page for First bank's PayPal wallet:

"FirstBank MasterCard and Visa cards (which are enabled for online international transactions) can easily be linked to your PayPal account (Verve Acceptance is currently being explored)"

So it means that they might include verve card in the future, but i wouldn't hold my breath on that.

Why not drop it here for the benefit of all?

Could anyone who opened their PayPal account via First bank's 'PayPal wallet' show us how their paypal account page look like? I understand all its features are enabled when opened via first bank's PayPal wallet.

Interesting development

Yes dropping it here will be a nice idea

meanwhile i have opened a paypal account and verified it using my mastercard
I was allowed to link the card to the paypal account
And going thru the site
Nigeria is listed among the countries that can only make payment using paypal
One cannot receive payment

I attempted linking my bank account
But couldn't because that option is not yet available

I have been using my PayPal to make payment since the 3rd day PayPal allowed Nigeria to open one.

You have to activate your First Bank internet banking service first. Then try again, it will work

In importation we try as much as possible to ascertain all necessities, some might think it's all about being optimistic and here some people might think I am the pessimist type but the truth be said; we got a lot of questions to ask but just because we are handicapped at the moment or be it that some haven't reached the stage where a challenge like this surges up or we forgot. Well the question is simple;
I know paypal rate for #/$ won't surpass your momentary bank rate, so if you have send some cash via it and you later understand that the recipient is a fraudster but you want your money back. You will be advised to open a dispute to get it back which is good but the challenge I have here is;
What will paypal do or how will I get my money if the recipient has withdrawn the fund and he has no money in the account he used to verify his paypal?
I ask this question because, we think we are smart (I mean the 9ja yahoo boys) but the truth is they are learners because the main yahoo guys are from USA, India and Romania and they are professional epayment and IT experts. So I know they must have been doing something like this and hit their money cost-free of no penelty.
Anyone with idea on this should pls highlight us on it. Thanks in anticipation of your replies.

But wetin come happen b4 now wey u no dey reply person?

There are paypal reliable accounts that's you pay money into and they will help you withdraw your money and pay it in into your local bank account. But you will pay them some commission for that. I cannot make the accounts that I do use public because of some security reasons and there are lots of tricks that go with it. You may find some of the accounts and websites on google, but please be careful and verify if they are reliable first.
