I want to open a paypal account but I'm on benefit can I still open one&how
All you need is bank account. As most benefits are paid into bank accounts you might have one already. When you log into the PayPal website after joining them they will need a card to use. For example a Visa Debit card. Once this is in place you will be able to pay for things. You just sign into PayPal. PayPal will then taken the money from your bank account to pay for the transaction. As long as you have money in your account to pay for any the goods you buy, you won't have any problems.
As long as you have a bank account you can use PayPal.
Being on benefits will not stop you getting a PayPal account.
Once you have a PayPal account keep your eyes peeled for dodgy e-mails saying your accounts frozen etc. Generally they always say something like PayPal user. So they are easy to spot as PayPal will always use your name. These dodgy e-mails are after your password.
