I've just bought an item on ebay. I can go through the payment process fine, but once I get to the button to comfirm payment, it gives me an "unable to complete request" error.

Can anyone help?

Thanks

I  am also having this problem. "Unable to authorise payment. Please contact seller" when trying to pay for eBay items. Not my fault, I have money, card is valid etc. Sort it out Pay-Pal, I am left unable to pay for goods.Smiley Mad

Same problem here. Matter of fact, I've not been able to make any payments since 23rd of this month.

My worry is that the two sellers involved might give me negative feed backs if this problem isn't rectified soon enough!

I'm having the same issue trying to purchase games from either steam or impulse, both give the same error "Order Status: Your Order has been denied by PayPal" it's been giving the error for several days, ever since both of those sites' sales started...

I am having the same issue here but my bank is telling me the payments are going through. I brought an item on ebay yesterday,  which I tried to pay for but I would get the message "Sorry, we aren't able to complete your request at this time" error 10001, every time (which was six attempts).

 

There is no record of any transactions going through on paypal to this seller dispite my bank account showing that 6 payments went though and then two of those payments where returned/refunded.

 

I also tried to buy a game on steam two days ago and had to try several times before that went though. I'm not sure if the money was taken each time in that instance as my telephone banking account wouldn't let me check beyond 6 payments back. One payment is shown as on my paypal account as going through though.

I just bought 2 items sucessfully and plenty more during the day and just now I have got a "request could not be processed" type message! I have to admit this does happen a lot and usually by the next day I can complete the payment without trouble. But now my seller is hassling me with invoices asking me to pay up and she thinks I am making excuses! Does anyone know what seems to cause this problem? I have lots of money in my bank and there are no limits on my paypal account, so I don't see what the problem is....
