When you pay it shows you how much you are paying and where the payment will be sourced from BEFORE you click submit to pay.
If you don't want to use your bank account then you just click on "other funding sources" and select your card on a transaction by transaction basis.
Not sure paypal is at fault because you did not read the page properly before you paid ??

Kudos / Solution appreciated.

The problem with this is that for some payments, it doesn't seem to ask, it just goes straight ahead and takes the money from where it considers the default. Really annoying.

Found a way to do this. Had to navigate to the Wallet, then select the Classic site at the bottom, then I could get back to the old "My Money" entry. What a pain, Paypal!

Brilliant, thank you laoren! Been trying to work that out for weeks - seems to always make the newest card added as the Primary for some reason. Massive oversight in their system.
