Anyone having problems with Paypal???
BenB - 1/9/08 at 02:43 PM

Just bought something on Ebay. I've had the same CC on Paypal for about 5 years (and it's not expired yet!!).
Now when I go to pay, it prompts me for a new card, if I try and enter the same one that's already on it says "no can do, already on system" and prompts for another one. If I go seperately to the Paypal website and delete the card I can enter the new details by doing the Ebay pay thing again but after it accepts the details it goes back to asking for another card?!?!?
WTF!!!
I suspect the Ebay vendor would like to get payment- I'll e-mail and let them know the problem.

If my computer wasn't so locked down virus / phishing wise I'd be worried....

Just wondered if anyone else having problems....

Have you exceeded spending/purchasing limits on the a/c or not done the various "upgrades" you can do on the paypal website - could it therefore have "locked" that card out?

Hohohohoho

You guys are funny!!

Nope. Not spent half as much this month on Ebay as normal (been on holiday!!) and the CC's good so no problem there.... Very strange....

Do you think Paypal are owned by the SFB???

Mine done that a while ago had to enter a bank account number to "unlock" it then select the credit card again as method of payment..

Hopefully Ebay/PP are on it... I've given up re-trying like a hamster. If it doesn't work in a day or so that's the end of my Ebay career. Interestingly if you try and access their "e-mail a problem" page it times out!!! Perhaps I'm not alone...
