Never able to use PayPal when overseas.

Hi Guys

 

I travel at least two months or more a year.   When I am overseas I find that I am never able to login to PayPal.

 

I only receive a message to contact PayPal.  To contact PayPal via my PC I have to login - so that doesn't help.

 

The alternative is to telephone PayPal.   Quite often this is just out of the question.

 

So my question is - can I advise PayPal in advance (like my credit card company) of my destinations to avoid this very annoying issue.

If you have a PayPal business account, you can enter your travel plans in your account settings. Otherwise, you'll need to call PayPal every time you travel abroad to get access to your account.


Kudos & Solved are greatly appreciated. 🙂

Thank you for the advice. 

 

Often telephoning is impractical, given the locations I am in. 

 

So looks like I will just have to get by without PayPal when travelling. 

 

Frustrating!
