Can't Link Bank account or Credit Card

[GloryAlmighty]

Hi everyone !

So, i think i had this same problem in the past & my account got resetted or something, i can't really remember, but here i am again with the same problem..
I can't link my bank account (i dont have visa or mastercard or something)
I have a credit card which im able to deposit or withraw money with to my paypal account, however.. I CANT buy anything, pay anything, or even send the money back to my bank because it ask me all the time to "link my bank account"
Which i cant do for some reason, keeps telling me this : "this service is unavailable right now, please try again later.." every single time.
I still have quite alot of money on my paypal account which i cant do anything with as stated above.

Thx for reading & any answer in advance !

As you have not added your country to your profile (so we can see when we hover over your username) or said in your post which country you are in then sadly can't advise.
Paypal varies a great deal country to country so you need to tell us where you are on this worldwide community forum.

You can't add a local bank account / debit card in your country.
You can only link a visa credit card.

Also the option to receive paypal payments is sadly not available in Nigeria.
You can only send payments for purchases funded by your (confirmed) credit card.

Paypal varies a lot country to country and can only offer the services that the banks / governments of that country allow it to offer.
There are quite a few countries unable to receive paypal payments.
