Hi @Samantha4k,    Welcome to the Community!    I'm sorry to hear that you're having difficulty withdrawing funds. Based on the error message that you're receiving, it appears that our internal security system is blocking the withdrawal. Payments can often be blocked or declined if we detect any unusual or suspicious activity. We decline some payments to help protect you from any possible fraudulent activity. If you've verified that there are no suspicious charges in your account, please try the payment again at a later time. Here are some troubleshooting steps that you can also try:   1. Clear cache and cookies. 2. Attempt to log in through the device, location or IP address more consistent with previous account activity 3. Use a different browser or device. 4. Activate location services on your device or in the browser. 5. Ensure the account is not being used using VPN or hosting IP. 6. Wait 48-72 hours and try again.   I hope this helps!    ... View more

Hi @AlexChetan,   Welcome to the Community!    This doesn't sound right. The money should appear in your PayPal straight away when it's sent. Here is an article that should help you.    Hopefully, this helps!    Craig  ... View more

Hi @Jam333,   Welcome to the Community!    In this situation, it might be best to open a dispute through your PayPal account to try and resolve the issue with the seller. If you're unable to settle your dispute, you can escalate it to a claim and ask us to investigate and decide the outcome. You can read how to open a dispute here.    I hope this gets resolved for you!    Craig  ... View more

Hi @compufm,    Welcome to the Community!    The good news is that when buyers pay with PayPal, PayPal Buyer Protection covers them in case there is a problem. If an item doesn’t arrive or is significantly not as described, we will help buyers get a full refund. You can read more information on how to create a case when you have paid using our guest checkout payment option here.    Hopefully, this helps!    Craig  ... View more

Hi @epsilon9,   Welcome to the Community!    In this situation, you will need to make a manual payment. Log into your PayPal account, choose the Pay in 4 plan you want to pay and click Make a Payment. Then, you can make an unscheduled or extra payment that will be applied to that Pay in 4 plan.   Hopefully, this helps!    Craig  ... View more

Hey @ChristiLynn,   Welcome to the Community!    If your PayPal account is verified, your email address is confirmed and there are no restrictions on your account then there would be no reason why you cannot receive payments through PayPal. It might be worthwhile reaching out to My Points to see if they can direct you through the process.    I hope this gets resolved for you, and I hope Cooper feels better soon!     Craig  ...

Hi @Etzel375,    Welcome back to the Community!    When you send a PayPal.Me link, the customer will need a PayPal account to complete the payment. PayPal.Me is open to all account types, however business accounts can only accept Goods and Services payments. To make a payment through PayPal without opening an account, you'll have to have the recipient send you an invoice or money request. This means you'll receive an email with either a detailed invoice, usually if you're paying a business, or a simple note explaining what the money is needed for.   I hope this helps!    Craig  ...
