Hello, I have a Lumia 928. I am trying to browse PayPal.com, but it keeps redirecting me to the mobile site. I need the desktop version of the site, because on the mobile version it is impossible to accept payments to student accounts. I am not near my computer at the moment and I tried going to my phone browser settings to request a desktop site, but it still redirects me to mobile. Is there a way to switch to the full desktop version of PayPal.com, for example most sites such as Facebook, Twitter, and Google have a " Request Desktop version" somewhere on the page. I couldn't find this button anywhere on PayPal.com on my phone, and I need to approve the payment ASAP.

Paypal Usability design completely fails. There is absolutely no justification whatsoever for preventing a user who needs more information from accessing it beyond the simple basic site pages. The only reason this kind of thing happens is either a. developers who know nothing at all about Usability Engineering try to stick their noses where they don't belong because they think design is just about plopping links on a screen, or b. there are actually Usability Engineers on the team, but either they are completely incompetent or the dillweed project managers ignore them.
