Hi is anyone else having the same issue as me...I have kids who use x-box iPhones etc. At one time or another they have used my PayPal to pay for apps, games, coins. It was getting out of hand so I changed my password on the main PayPal site but lo and behold my kids could still Spend on my account by using the same old PayPal password as before as PayPal automated one click buy type purchases thereby mymkids didn't have to type in the new Password I had changed as the iPhone or Xbox they were using was allowing to enter using the stored old password. How is that possible.l???!! PayPal Allows people to enter my account take my money if at one time they have had an old password on a different device and it is set To pay automatically with one click. Thereby ignoring the fact I had changed the password!!! . Where is the security in that?!! So now do I need to go to each device in my house and ensure they are all under to use one click payments? Surely not. Surely it should say the main account password has been updated please enter new password before you can proceed?? SUrely if I create a new password on PayPal that will stop any device even if using auto log in/auto password/one click payment methods! But it doesn't. So my kids were still buying stuff on Xbox and their iPhones long after I had changed my password on my account. All because we had used a one click by now type purchases set up once before on that phone/Xbox. What's the point of creating a new password if it doesnt stop access?!
No because by intiating one touch you are bypassing the password screen.
You can easily deactivate One TouchTM by turning it off within your PayPal account. Just log in at www.paypal.co.uk and go to your Profile, click the Security tab, and then edit the “Stay Logged in for Faster Purchases” option.

THanks for this. Just did that but already says auto log in turned off for all devices. Do you think i need to go to my xbox account and maybe see if i can turn it off there?
