Paypal in Bahrain!

Wow... finally PayPal has added few Middle East countries to their list (Bahrain, Qatar, UAE and Jordan). [Hat tip: Jad, Moey]

Time to setup a tip jar :-)

Thanks for letting us know, Haitham :)
2 mohamed October 15, 2006 at 10:32 pm: very cool ;)
3 JPM October 30, 2006 at 9:12 pm: Have you been able to figure out how to sign up. I had some trouble, because of the wrong PHONE format!!!
4 Haitham October 30, 2006 at 11:08 pm: JPM,

I don’t recall having an issue with the registration, it went very smooth.

Try contacting their customer service.
5 JPM October 31, 2006 at 2:14 pm: Haitham, did you sign up using Bahrain as the location or US? If Bahrain, how did you give your phone number +973-123-1234 ?? I’ve tried every combo… none seem to work!
6 Haitham October 31, 2006 at 7:54 pm: JPM,

Yes, using Bahrain. Try 1231234 without the country code, and no spaces between numbers. They added the international code (+973) to my number, which I found out after I completed the registration.

By tip jar, I meant the donation button in the sidebar (the one which has Visa/Mater Card/ Donate button).

Whoever wish to donate any amount of money can only click that button which will take him to the secure Paypal page and make the donation. The donation will be transferred to my account instantly. It is that simple :)

Thank for all those who already left some tips there, and thank for those who will in advance ;)
8 JPM October 31, 2006 at 11:14 pm: Thanks. But the problem was to do with the email. When I changed address, i.e. deleted me previous pp account – it appears to not have been deleted properly. Anyway, worked well with new address.
