Mine actually started working again this afternoon with one of the vendors it failed on 2 days ago (which said CVV was wrong despite being absolutely sure I typed it in correctly).  I'm not sure why it started working, but one of the things I did do was to remove all credit cards from my wallet, adding back the credit card I wanted to use, then linking it to PayPal Key.  I saw other people suggest doing that for other issues, so I gave it a shot.  Whether that helped, I have no clue. ...

Is anyone else unable to complete transactions using their PayPal Key?  I've used it multiple times over the last few weeks, but it stopped working as of yesterday.  PayPal customer support says the issue is with the merchants, but I'm doubtful as I'm experiencing this problem with multiple websites.  One website said to recheck CVV and the other said something was wrong with card details.  I even deleted the PayPal Key and created a new one, but I can't get the transaction to complete.  I see no transactions on my activity summary at all.  I'd like to know if anyone else is having this problem so I could tell PayPal that it's likely something on their end.  I saw a similar post on 9/1, but mine was working back then, so I'm not sure if something else is going on.   Thanks. ...
