Hi @Scotty667,

 

Welcome to the community. A card can only be added to PayPal 3 times in the lifetime of that card. If this card has been added and removed that amount of times then I am afraid you won't be able to use it in our system again. If you believe the card may be still registered to another PayPal account then we can certainly take a look into this once you phone through to our support team using the 'Contact Us' -> 'Call Us' option at the bottom of any PayPal page.

 

Hope this helps,
Siobhán
