Seems like everybody is having this problem. Im having it too. Still no response from PayPal to anybody about it. Something very odd and worrying going on here. So unprofessional from them. I wouldnt even be using PayPal if it wasnt for eBay.

Hi guys,
If you are being advised that you are unable to register the card as it has been registered to other accounts previously, you may not be able to ever register the card again on PayPal.
Once a card has been registered to the third different PayPal account, our system will disable the card from being registered on the website again. You can try contacting customer services if you wish in order to see if there is anything more that we can do but I can't guarentee that we can do anything to be honest.
David.

HI, My problem isn't quite the same, I tried to update my card which was about to expire, I went to the update page and followed the instructions but it wouldn't let me edit the expiration date and C code, so I called Customer service ( that's where the plot thickens) I told the girl I talked to that the number and all info was the same on the card, just a updated expiration date and C code, but she told me to delete the card then reenter the informaton on the updated card and everything would be great, well needless to say it wasn't Great, now my card number is blocked from being entered, so I thought easy fix, ran to the bank to have that card canceled and a new card issued, Wrong again, the bank told me that they wouldn't issue a new card just because Pay Pal had my card number blocked on a good account, so here I set with a Pay Pal account that is no good for making payments to Ebay sellers because most will not accept E-Check which is all I have left thanks to customer service. I did buy a lot for my collections from Ebay but now can't. I called customer service a second time and asked if anyone could remove the block on my card number and was told no-one in Pay Pal could remove the block so I set here with a account with no Credit card attached. shurly to goodness there is someone who can remove the block in Pay Pal or Ebay without a big problem other than with me? My card has only been on my one account and removed only once (at the direction of Customer Service) why can't I re-add the card number and get this mess fixed

Based on your respose David is it possible for PayPal to delete all other accounts where the said card maybe registered to, or at least hint as to what accounts the card is registered to?
