Is there any way I can put a block on my PayPal credit so I can no longer purchase using this?? Only to pay my credit off?

First answer that comes to mind is exercise some self-discipline, blocking yourself, and just don't use it (or just stay away from PayPal account altogether in terms of using it to buy, for the time being). It builds character. 😉

 

What you can do is select another default payment method (such as your PayPal balance) as the preferred payment method for online purchases.

 

Go to Account Settings (gear icon) > Payments > Online Purchases

 

Or contact customer service to see if its possible to put a freeze on the account:

Log on, click HELP on top menu, scroll down to click CONTACT US, and then scroll down to click CALL US or other contact options.

 

Or contact via social media:
