Hello @Kaisha_kitsune,
Welcome to the PayPal Community! I'm sorry to hear you've run into some issues with your financials and with using your balance on PayPal. Even though you may have an available balance in your PayPal account, it's not uncommon to run into Payment declines like this if you don't have a confirmed bank or card on file as well. If you can, I'd recommend adding and confirming a debit or credit card to your account to see if that helps. If you're unable to add the card on file you previously had, I'd recommend trying to add another, or requesting a new card number from your financial institution.
My apologies for any inconvenience this may cause,
- Jon K
