Hi. I have a white PayPal reader. It was used relatively recently. Have gone to check battery this evening to find it won't turn on. When I press the on button asterix 2,3,4 and 6 flash yellow then I get a solid red triangle for a few seconds. It has been plugged in for about 2 hours and I'm still getting the same reaction when I plug it in. Have also tried to reset but that doesn't seem to be doing anything. Any other ideas. Thanks

Hi Sewyoubaby,
Apologies for the delay, are you still experiencing issues with the reader?
Have you managed to complete a full factory reset as per the below:
- Locate the small opening next to the power button on the Chip & PIN card reader.
- Insert a pin into this opening and hold it until you see the green triangle flash 8 times and one asterisk sign lit up. This indicates that the device has undergone a factory reset.
- Once the Bluetooth light starts blinking, pair the card reader to your smartphone or iPad and open the PayPal Here app
