I'm trying to buy/rent movies from iTunes on my Apple TV 4K but it keeps asking me that "Verification is Required" and that I must go to "PayPal.com/getcode" on another device
Anyway I have tried generating a code multiple times on both my PC and my iPhone, and every time I enter the code and click "verify" on the Apple TV I just get the same screen message
"Verification Required. You can generate a code on PayPal.com/getcode"
I then hit "OK" and nothing happens.
I don't get it. I have PAYPAL locked in as my payment method on iTunes via my iPhone, but for whatever reason I'm having these problems when I try to use PAYPAL to make a purchase by using my Apple TV 4K.
How do I get a Verification code that actually works? Because none of the many different random generated codes on paypal.com/getcode function..
I have been in contact with iTunes but they said that this was a question I had to ask PayPal.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I had the same problem. When I authorised my laptop on iTunes the code I got from Paypal was accepted.
