Hi Jaishann, I had same query like yours, setting up paypal account.
In my case I tried registering but it say's UNVERIFIED account I guess it says like that because I don't have yet UK bank account as I can't put details of my Phil bank so while waiting for my bank approval (Which is very hard to get as a fiancee visa holder) I decided to try Paypal top up card (recommended by Charwill) which is I found it very cool but then again I can't register it says unsuccesful so I foned Paypal Top up card customer service they said I didn't passed local checks database for my identification coz arriving here in UK recently
but I'm sure in your case you will be registered easily and get one quickly
