I finally have my own paypal account (pay@REMOVETHISthe-protagonist.net) and a US checking and savings account.
So why the big deal?
Paypal is not available in the Philippines and I needed it for internet transactions. I also got a lot of shit from paypal. They permanently locked my account because I opened it in the Philippines and it’s against their TOS. They unlocked it after emailing them that I had a small business in California and that I was in the process of opening a US bank account. Thanks to my aunt and godmother who facilitated the paperwork for my bank account …all I have to do is finish some legal shit that the bank needs .
