Re: "Add money" does not work

Well, I got stupid and decided to get a prepaid PayPal MyCash card in order to add money to my account.  This is one month after my last post about issues using a GreenDot card to add funds (which I managed to use after having to contact customer help on the phone when this should be a simple user function NOT requiring customer assistance). So, yet again, one month later after finally getting help with a GreenDot money add and now using a PayPal MyCash card, I get the idiotic "Failure. We are sorry, but we couldn’t confirm your personal information so you can’t add funds at this time. Please go to Resolution Center." when I click on the Add money hyperlink on my MyAccount page.  Of course, it directs me to the resolution center where there are NO unresolved issues.  I then decided to follow the instructions in tiny print on the actual MyCash card which directed me to paypal.com/cash where there is NO easily recognizable "Add money"hyperlink to click on. Then again I just noticed that the website URL becomes https://www.paypal-cash.com/ when I go to www.paypal.com/cash as directed on the MyCash card. Why the two different URLs??? Adding funds to a PayPal acccount should be intuitive and not frustrating as PayPal has now managed to make it to be. Has ANYONE else tried adding funds to their account using a PayPal MyCash card??  If so, I'd love to know the process so would appreciate your sharing that info.  Again, calling customer support to add funds to an account, especially when we're being told that the issue with the website is known to PayPal and now it's been months?  That's unsat. ...

I'm having the same exact problem with my PayPal account. I've been trying to add money via a Green Dot MoneyPak card and keep getting "couldn't confirm your personal information" and I get told to go to the resolution center.  There's nothing showing in the resolution center; I've got NO open cases, nothing pending, etc. I've never had this issue before adding money to my account with a Green Dot card. ...

Checking Account Verification, Usage

Two questions related to the use of a checking account to transfer money into my Paypal account from.   1. I just linked my checking account to my Paypal account and attempted to verify my account right away. After clicking on the button to verify and entering the two amounts Paypal deposited, Paypal said it couldn't verify my account.  I was then told by Paypal that it would take 3-5 business days to verify. That being said, here's my first question. Why does my Paypal  account show "xxxx xxxxx xxxxxx CREDIT UNION Checking (Confirmed)"?"   note: x-####" x=my bank name, #=account info <---didn't want to put my private info in the forums   2. Will I have to wait 3-5 business days everytime I want to transfer money from my checking account into Paypal or is the wait just because of the verification process?   Any help to the above questions would be greatly appreciated. ...
