Can not set London postal code

Hi,

My company is in London (UK), but my home address is at Budapest (Hungary).

Paypal site keeps forcing me to set a "4 digit number" postal code for my London (primary business) address 😞

Also it shows "Hungary" under my London address automatically at Invoices...

 

Is there a way to fix this?

 (Resolution Center does not offer anything to report such a problem...)

You will need to open a PayPal UK Business account with a different email address, active mailing address and financials based in the UK. PayPal accounts are country specific.  That is why you can't enter a UK mailing address/account info in a Hungarian PayPal account.


Kudos & Solved are greatly appreciated. 🙂

Sadly I've tried that a few years before, but it caused even more trouble.

Since my Bank and my home address is at Hungary >>

>> paypal restricted my account, >> could not pay/use it, >> I was asked to file in many many papers >> after I've done all of that >> but they still not opened my account again 😞

 

So the only solution was to create a new email account under my domain only for this purpose >> and re-register as default country "Hungary".

Since than I was able to use my business account nicely, 🙂 only hoped there is a solution for this small "address problem".

This is NOT a solution and I did not accept it.

I'm still looking for a way to reach the support so somebody manually fixes the address.
