Hi,
I have been having the issue for a while and it is starting to become extremely frustrating every time I login to Paypal I have to enter a code this happens every single time without fail, I don't mind doing it fairly occasionally but having to do it every time is getting extremely tedious. I cannot see why It asks every time I do not have 2 factor authentication of the account and according to the another post I quote:
"In most instances, you'll continue to login or pay with PayPal by entering your email address and your PayPal password, as usual. However, we may sometimes ask you to enter a one-time passcode which we'll send via SMS to the phone number you've registered with us."
If it is sometimes then why I am being asked every time

I've lost out on purchases on ebay as a result of this continuous need to login, as other people have beat me to the purchase. NOT HAPPY, that this cannot be suppressed, I login to paypal at least 10 times a day ON THE SAME MACHINE AND SAME BROWSER!!

Same here ... I used to get it maybe once a week but now it is EVERY SINGLE LOGIN. I use the same laptop and phone and have clicked "trust this device" multiple times. It started about a week ago and is fast becoming so irritating that I am switching to just paying via debit card
I have gone to settings but it seems I cannot switch it off despite PayPal help article telling me I can
Anyone have any idea how to turn this irritant off ?

I am having this problem. I think sometimes it goes away, but then I'll have to get codes several times in one day. Surely the necessary cookies must be in place.
