Megan- Excellent Feedback!   Provided a complete picture of the issue.   I just got my own issue resolved today.  Here are some further tips to resolve if it happens to you [those who are reading this and are in the same situation]! 🤔    Actually, as this seems to come up alot- it would be great if the AI chat bot has these steps in it's arsenal to provide when this question is asked- instead of having to "hunt down" a solution.    Can you tell I am in QA management [for another industry] 😊 1- Contact PayPal Customer Service.    2- Ask them to remove [delete] all shipment addresses tied up to ALL merchants and/or gift services [OR, if you know it only happens when you use 1 merchant only, have that address removed only].    Note:  As provided above- this information [buyer's shipment address] is NOT seen on the buyer's dashboard profile [it is a "behind the scenes" field that shows up from PayPal to merchant only].    3- Note:  PayPal Customer Service will give you 2 options.   1- To cancel the order you just made, and have the amount refund back to your account [takes about 6-7 business days];  OR 2- You can keep the order as is, and contact the MERCHANT to change the shipment address [and keep the PayPal order as is].   4- If you take action the above #3 - #1 action above:  For any "behind the scenes" addresses to merchant removed - the next time you order, you will have to MANUALLY enter the shipment address.   [note:  I forgot to ask if this is for every purchase moving forward, or if for the first time only using a merchant card].   I never assume.   So if someone finds out - please let's help each other with a reply for the next person learning about this.   Again, I am hoping the AI bot will take up this cause, to make it easier on all consumers in the future.   The alternate [which I was finding myself in was to not use PayPal for purchases anymore - which would be such a shame 👎- since there was an easy [but not known] fix to the issue! 👍 ...
