As my old card expired, I attempted to enter a new credit card (same Chase bank account). I get this message: "WE SENT THE TEXT"
I do not get a text message; there is no "other account holder" and I'm confused about what this means. Does this look familiar to anyone? Thanks for any clarification.
We sent the text
You’ll see a notification in PayPal once the other account holder responds, and we’ll show the card in your account if it’s approved.

Hello @sacramennah,
Thanks for posting in the PayPal Community forums for help with this issue. I'm sorry to hear that you are having a difficult time adding a new credit card. I can understand why you would be puzzled by this, especially if you do not receive a text.
Did you check to see if your mobile phone number is confirmed on your PayPal account? If you do not have a confirmed mobile phone number, you would not receive a text. Have you checked your "wallet," or "money," section to see if the card has been successfully added? You would also receive an email when a card has been added to your PayPal account. Did you receive any notice there?

I'm sorry to hear that, @sacramennah. That is pretty weird. Do you know if anyone else is using that card? Sometimes, card issuers recycle card numbers and that can cause problems when trying to add it to your PayPal account. Your best bet is probably to contact PayPal customer service directly. They can tell you if the card wasn't added because the information is being shared with another party.
You can reach customer support by Facebook, Twitter, or phone or email.
