You have a couple options, wait 24 hours (sufficient in most cases) and re try the transaction, send an invoice to a phone number from your target account and pay as guest using your card info ( different from home account would be best) also you could try making a new account, but using a different phone and making sure your ip address doesnt correlate is main kicker on that one for success.

What back up funding sources do you have?

Have they all been confirmed?

Are you paying from funds in your PayPal balance?
