Yep, another Paypal rant and a question. Those mother f"""ers wont allow me to make a payment by visa as a guest to someone's paypal account even though I had made payment earlier that day with the same card to the same account. I have money in my bank account, not gone over my limit so alls good my end. Cleaered cookies, changed ip all that, tried again and got the same message: ' The card you entered cannot be used for this payment. Please enter a different credit or debit card number.'

I gave up my paypal account years ago because it was nothing but problems, now it seems it want to make life hard even for non paypal account holders who want to spend money.

Any of you guys have any idea how to fix this as it's quiet urgent.

Much thanks, James:)

Your problem most likely does not lie with PayPal but the credit card issuer. I have had this very thing happen and it drove me crazy for days until I figured out that the issuer had blocked the card for multiple transaction of the same amount within 24 hours. Try contacting the issuer to get the block removed. Multiple same-amount transaction are frequently regarded as fraudulent by the issue. You can also try changing the amount by a few cents and see if that will work. It did sometimes for me. Good luck!

Thanks a lot man :) Tried a different amount as you said, also just withdrew money from a cash machine with the card no problem. And the two original amounts where different. But thanks anyway, much appreciated.

OK, the fact that the card is working probably means that PP has it blocked and you'll need to use a different card. Security on CCs is getting tighter and tighter, sometimes to the point at which the cards become useless.
 
I think they want to force us all to join up. F"""ng """holes. I wont say what think as don't want to be banned.
 
Now a days we are facing many problems with paypal not only you but every one.Its only to prevent money laundering but common people have to face lot of problems due to it.
