I am trying to settle a payment, where the seller sent me an invoice directly to PayPal after an error kept arising during checkout on eBay. Now this new error keeps arising - I can't understand why, since I already used this card before to make purchases through PayPal on eBay. It has certainly not expired; I am finding this to be very frustrating since it may ruin my chance to get a very good deal. Please help!

Hi chriss1978,

 

If you have your card registered on your account and your are being requested to add a card is it generally because your card issuer is denying use of your card. If this is a new card or the address has been changed on the card you may need to contact the online authorisation department at your card issuer for them to allow you use the card on PayPal.

 

Also I would suggest that you review the card details that you have registered to ensure all details are correct.

 

This should resolve the issue for you and allow you send your payment.

 

I hope this helps
