Hey, so I found myself with the same problem and happened to find an article that explaned. So here it is... Your PayPal and Mpesa accounts will not link until they have the same exact name... This actually meant I had to delete my PayPal account and create a new one with the name registered on my Mpesa account.. But after that it was fixed. I was able to link the two successfully.
