Paypal is issuing ATM cards ??? With Pin code and so on ??? If yes, do they mail such a card to Cambodia ?
Und der Haifisch der hat Tränen
Und die laufen vom Gesicht
Doch der Haifisch lebt im Wasser
So die Tränen sieht man nicht

In der Tiefe ist es einsam
Und so manche Träne fliesst
Und so kommt es dass das Wasser
In den Meeren salzig ist

Yes they are, but no... you need it forwarded from your home country.

So if you have a Cambodian bank account and a credit card from that very bank account it wouldn't work, right ??

I spent countless of hours over this. Fact: You can not withdraw money using your Cambodian bank account from Paypal regardless they are locally or foreign owned.

It costs me around 8 bucks every time I withdraw money from my foreign ATM card excluding the exchange rate. It sucks, but there is no way around it.

Thanx a lot for this info, Flying Chicken.

P.S.: one more question: can you transfer money from your PayPal account to your credit card ?

No worries homie. Let me know if you or anyone find a way around this, withdrawing money from a Cambodian account that is. No Bitcoin bs.
