My paypal business debit card was declined at a merchant this morning. I have more then enough funds in my paypal account and the purchase was only for $6.00. The PIN i put in is correct. I never experienced this before and it is a store that i have used this card before. I do not understand why it was denied. Has this happened to anyone else

Yeah I think its affecting everyone. Me too , I opted for a call back from " 47 minutes to 1 hrs and 10 minutes , and thus was 2 minutes after they opened at 6am PST . I too tried to use my card this morning and was declined for 1.08 and 13.94 , and I have over a 2500.00 balance . Its just declining , ive seen other reports on this ... and being g as though 2 minutes after they opened and im looking at an hour for a call back ..... I'm going g out on a limb here , but its probably affecting everyone , or almost everyone.... its definitely ately NOT just you.
