Can't transfer money to debit card

I linked a visa debit card to my account and I have successfully transferred money onto it several times before . However, today when I tried to transfer some money onto it it did not show up as an option on the withdrawal screen?? instead it gave me the option to link an eligible card , even though the card is still linked to my account .

i tried re-entering my card info but no dice . is something , all of a sudden , wrong with my card or is it a bug or something?? i would really like to eat something today lol

The person I talked to acknowledged neither debit, credit or checking account transfers were possible at this time. He suggested to me that I could refund the payment. I'm just wondering if anyone has tried that and if that option is working with PayPal at this time?

So they know a lot of people are having issues why not release something with an ETA? Currently on hold because my call back got disconnected just as I answered

We are experiencing the same issue. Has anyone been able to get a resolution or ETA regarding a resolution?

I'm not trying to be rude but geez, is nobody from Paypal going to address this? They've had almost an entire day and nobody over at Paypal HQ thought to notify customers that they won't be able to transfer money? No warning, no updates, no ETA on a resolution. Like, what's the deal?

I got thru to a customer service agent within about 10 minutes, if though the estimated hold time was 1 hour to an hour & half. I was told there was a system upgrade for the ability to tranfer to debit cards only, can still transfer to bank account but that's not immediate & at this rate most likely won't show up until Monday since it takes 24 hours. They could not give a timeframe of when the update would be complete, they just instructed me to try again later. I asked why customers weren't notified or why no one from PP was replying or communicating to customers through this (community) and they said they would look into it. The only benefit of me calling to complain was that they would flag my account for issues, I guess to keep a record of how many people this is actually affecting, bc she said not all users were affected?? I told her a lot of people were probably hanging up after being told they'd be on hold for up to 2 hours, but that someone from PP needed to address these issues & keep their customers updated.

kclindsley i appreciate you filling us in. I just think it's crazy that nobody from PayPal could take the time to do the same. there's a moderator on this board who just replied to a post about $4 chargeback that hasn't been updated since 01/14 yet this entire front page is full of questions from people wondering what's going on and nobody has anything to say?  smh

 

obituary, it's still not working for me but im hoping that means it will be up and running soon. hopefully before 6 pm or im royally **bleep**.
