PayPal Credit Card

I currently use Paypal Credit (previously Bill Me Later), but I was wondering if it was possible to change over to the PayPal Credit Card. It says that because I use Credit I can't apply for the card.

PayPal only allows on type of credit service.  You can't have both PayPal Credit and PayPal MasterCard credit card.

I am not ta;lking about the CARD.  I appliecd for PayPal CREDIt, got a credit line and have been unable to use it for any amount due to PayPal's "system".  Yes, PayPal did verify my identity.

I know, @chines35 added an unrelated question and my response was to that.  I edited my comment now to direct it correctly.

 

As for PayPal Credit, it will be offered when PayPal considers it appropriate.  PayPal will not disclose it's risk and security models for determining when it will be offered.

I was also offered a line of credit and have attempted to use it at least 5 times in the last 24 hours...in addition contacted PayPal and talked to three people one manager who said they "over rode" saying to try it in a couple of hours...and two that said the "system" makes decisions and couldn't give me any actual reason as to why. Seriously? A line of credit to a customer with good credit should be used at my discretion NOT PayPal discretion.

If you want a credit vehicle to use at your discretion, then use a credit card or equity line of credit.

PayPal Credit is not like traditional credit vehicles as it isn't available for all products and all purchases.  Risk is evaluated for each purchase and the option to use PayPal Credit will show when all conditions are met.
