Hi, I've been tryig to send money to a family member. When it comes to selecting the payment method, my paypal credit does not pop up.  My bank account and debit card pop up but not my paypal credit. Anyone having thi issue too? IF so, did y'all figure out how to fix it?

 

Thanks,

PayPal Credit is not a cash machine for sending money to other people.

For any transaction PayPal Credit will show as an option when it is offered.  If there is no option showing then it's not available for that transaction.

it's just the way PayPal Credit words.

If you need guaranteed credit, then do a cash advance from a credit card.

It's absolutely true. When sending money via email, debit or credit was NOT an option and I did't know debit was an option, because on Amazon it automatically use the credit side for purchase and there is no option so I thought there was no option sending monies debit via email. My mistake, I am paying for FOUR overdrafts ($35 x 4= $140). Now I waiting for PayPal to work their magic to correct the problem while my bank's magic works way faster to me and soo much more painful that PayPal. Also they need a "are you sure" button before to send monies!
