Desktop version of PayPal

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.

Suggest contacting Tech Support to see if there is a work around:

I can't actually contact them. On "https://ppmts.custhelp.com/app/home" I type in "Desktop version of PayPal on Mobile" and click "Find". And it says "We have found a solution to your problem" and I click on the "solution" and it takes me to the FAQ of PayPal, which has nothing to do with the mobile version of PayPal.com.

Yeah, not having a desktop site link or respecting the request desktop site option sucks big time

Ok, got it, you meant this link: https://ppmts.custhelp.com/app/ask
Anyways, I filled in everything, but unfourtunatally the link you sent me is for merchant support, not customer support. They do not have a catagory for my problem, and the category is required. This is really annoying lol.

 

Thanks anyways.

These are parasites out of academia who consider themselves smart fir knowing something others don't. If they were served by farmers to grocers in the same manner they'd be dead already.

Move to a digital transaction free currency like ripple or stellar and seriously,  *bleep* all of paypal from founders to shareholders to theur smug employees.

Completely true!

 

The stupid paypal website coders do not honour the request to see the desktop version. The mobile version is such a dumbed down waste of time.

PayPal would profit from you upgrading your phone to iPhone, so yep they'll treat you like an idiot until that time. Good luck. To me & to you. I purchased products which i can't sell without records of purchase, so can't afford the iPhone. We're caught-in-a-loop OUT-of-the-loop forced to otherwise adapt to THEM. They will not adapt to you, as if they didn't have the money to. They'll much rather you feel like an outsider. They're similar to Hitler, or cartels such as Telstra & Woolworths. No joke.
