HI @yousefodeh,
Thank you for your post.
I do understand your frustration. Based on what you have explained, it sounds like your payment attempts are being declined by your card issuer. Typically, when the payment is being declined by PayPal it would state that in the error message. I would suggest you contact your card issuer to work out any issues with them directly. Once you have done this, please try making the payment again.
I hope you get this sorted!
