Why is PayPal checkout suddenly declining all card payments?

I have recently had PayPal Checkout implemented into my website and over the past week have been running live payments through it to test tpayments for the different services I offer. I have done this by checking out using my personal PayPal account and making payments into my linked merchant account. However when trying to make a purchase on Wednesday PayPal Checkout started declining my linked cards and now I am only able to pay using my PayPal Balance. At first I thought my bank may have declined the payments but I have also tried making purchases using my spouses PayPal account and using different cards as a guest. It would seem that PayPal checkout has decided to halt all credit/debit card transactions.
Does anybody know why this maybe or how I can resolve the issue. As I mentioned it was working fine before.
Thanks
Charlie

I have been having this same issue as well since 8:00am EST. I am trying to make a purchase on Walmart site and an error keeps popping up as soon as I try to check out. Its annoying and frustrating. The first transaction went through but not the second one. I am paying through my Paypal balance. This is my first time with this company and I dont like them at all. I am on hold with customer service now via phone. Been waiting to speak with someone for 45 minutes now. So glad I am not the only one experiencing this.
