Name Verification Problem [resolved]

So that we can provide faster and better support, this forum (the "Public Suggestion Box") has been retired. Instead, please send any suggestions you have to us using the official website contact form.

This allows us to streamline our support system so that we can get to your message much faster. Instead of our support staff having to check three different places (support forum, suggestion box, and contact form messages), they know can respond to all message through one method, with that one method being the official website contact form.

Name Verification Problem [resolved]

Post by Joy Max »

I tried to do the name verification for the bonus points, but I was told that the names on my OBC and Facebook accounts were different from the ones on my Paypal. I've changed my OBC and Facebook account names to the ones on my Paypal, but the bonus points aren't reflecting. What do I do?

Hi,
Thanks for reaching out.
Can you please clarify how long it has been since you updated your OBC and Facebook account names?

Hi,

Thank you for reaching out. Have you updated your score recently? If so, what is the message you receive in the section for the ten bonus points? Thanks!

Your Facebook name was successfully recorded, but that does not match your username.
This is the message. I've changed my facebook name. Do I need to resend the number?

Hi, I'm having a similar issue. My OBC name and Facebook name match, but my PayPal name is a partial match because it's still under my maiden name since I had the account before I got married.

Hi.

Thank you for reaching out. Are you able to update your PayPal display name?

Thank you.

Hi, Katherine,

Unfortunately, it may not be possible to get the bonus points if a different PayPal name was already recorded in the database. However, I have sought clarification from my manager in this case. Please allow up to two business days for a response.

Best regards,

Thank you. I'm just confused because it was still my name without the hyphen. It was Katherine Powell, and the same email.

Hi.

Thank you for the clarification. Since it's the system that verifies whether the name matches, even the slightest variation can cause this issue. This is why you are advised to ensure the name matches before asking for the verification.

Thank you.
