I was on the phone with PayPal for 2 hours and then they hung up.

I’m currently on hold with PayPal again after being on hold for 2 hours and then being hung up on. I’m currently living abroad, and just had to renew my PayPal MasterCard, so I had it sent to me and I activated it online, but now i can’t use it because I am outside of the US. The only way to fix this is to call PayPal and ask them to adjust my location on my account! So here we are....

Let them know that you're abroad right now and would like to use your PayPal account while abroad. Or you can open a PayPal account in the country you're in now and save the US PayPal account and card for US use. PayPal accounts aren't as mobile as people like to think they are.
