Hi there Damo1973,
Welcome to the Community!
If you are experiencing difficulties with your PayPal Here card reader, you should try contacting customer services directly and we can get this investigated.
You have a few options when trying to contact customer services. You can call or send an email through the Contact Us page on PayPal. You can also contact us directly on Twitter @AskPayPal or on Facebook at https://www.facebook.com/PayPalUK and we can assist you with any queries that you have.
David.

I am having the same issue - I tried clicking the link "Contact Us" and was told " this page does not exist" !! Hoping for some help on this, having just spent nearly £50 on a card reader that is , at present, useless.
I'm using a Samsung Galaxy Fame with Android Jellybean.

I'm also having the same problems with the app on a Samsung Galaxy S4. It seems to be a common problem going back months, I feel that I have been conned and if this problem cannot be solved it should be mention on the website. I will be returning th chip and pin reader and will remind my money back if this is not resolved soon

Unfortunately your option of using 'contact us' is not useful as the answers given are worse than useless. Please at least credit us Sith the intelligence to actually check you compatibility stats before downloading the app!!

PayPal customer service confirmed that their latest update BROKE PayPal Here on Galaxy S3's.
The workaround (which does not always work) is
• Turn off GPS
• Uninstall App
• Reinstall App
• Turn GPS back on
Needless to say, making customers stand around for 5 minutes while I do all this is beyond frustrating to me and them.
Needs to get fixed now. Very unprofessional to have to **bleep** around with this while customer is trying to get on with their business.

Late reply and not very relevant, but might help someone as I struggled to find a compatible device. After trying numerous phones/tablets I finally tryed an ASUS ZenPad C 7.0 (Z170CG) which works perfectly.
