Hi,

I've just install PayPal mobile app on my GT-9000 (Android) and after first login I setup PIN entering my mobile number linked with PayPal account and four digit pin but I can't login. I have this message "Login Failed... Invalid phone number or PIN. Please try again." but when I try enter by mobile website m.paypal.com/uk PIN and passwor work fine! I try reset PIN few time on phone and on internet website but without any effects. How can I solve this problem?

Hi there,

 

I am going to reach out to our engineers that designed the mobile app to see if there are any know issues with it. I will let you know as soon as I do.

Almost 4 moths later and still no answer? Anyone can't solve that problem? What people works on PayPal apps?

Even after deleting and adding phone number again still the same error: "Invalid phone number or PIN. Please try again" again, again and again the same...

I'am really disappointed of how PayPal customer service works.

I can  log on with my email and normal password using my Android Paypal App  but cannot log in using phone number and PIN option.

I get the same issue on my Samsung Galaxy S2. Can log in fine using the email address & password, but can't log in using the mobile number and PIN.

 

Have tried removing my mobile completely and readding it, still no good.

Replying to myself... It seems if I set my phone locale to English (Australia) it works. If I set my locale to English (United Kingdom) it fails.

 

Sadly, I changed my local to English (United Kingdom) to work around a text to speech bug in the google navigation...

Changing the Language setting to English Australia worked for me.
