Where I sm at the moment in Spain there is a system called 'PayPal Amigos' (Paypal Friends) by which you can send a payment to trusted friends, foregoing the normal PayPal guarantees, and the friend does not then have to pay a charge for receiving the payment. In one of my online buying and selling groups this system is now usually obligatory. My PayPal account is in English, was opened in a different country and I cannot see how to access this system. Can you help?

Yes you can purchase anywhere using a Paypal Columbia account but you CANNOT use a country specific paypal account if you have moved or are in another country.
And the friends/family option is NOT available in your country, you can only send funds using the goods/services option.

Kudos / Solution appreciated.

hello, do you know that he has the Paypal cgu?
money between ( family, friend ) relatives is prohibited to pay for a purchase.
There are paypal penalties for this.
limitation of the account, removal of this method of receiving money, and more for recidivism.
similarly, a paypal account must be opened in his country of residence (cgu paypal) and not a country of your choice
- double-sided identity card
- valid proof of address less than 12 months old ( (administrative document) )
if you leave a country (relocation) you must close the account and open a new account corresponding to your new country (cgu paypal)

Thanks you.
No, an account opened in Colombia can be used for purchases anywhere, as I have been doing for many years. At the moment I am in Spain and am asking about 'PayPal Amigos' payments in Spain.
