My card isnt allowed on paypal

[xPatCx1]

I tried entering my visa gift card onto my paypal and when it charges to my credit card, it cherged twice. Ok whatever no big deal. But now there is now code in the statement. So I tried copy and pasting different numbers that came up on the statement and all were wrong. But after this Paypal told me that i ENTERED IT INCORRECTLY SO MY CARD ISNT ALLOWED ON PAYPAL!!

xPatCx1- Sorry that your first foray into PayPal has turned out so badly 😞

A lot of gift cards can't be used on PayPal since they can't pass through the verification process. In this case if you have a statement, it may be possible.  In can take a while for the $1.95 charge to actually settle; the code doesn't appear until the charge has settled. If you now have the 4 digit code, call us up and we can try and fix it. 

If you still don't have the code, then you may legitimately may not be able to use the card. And for that we have to workaround.
