Hi  A little while back i was having problem trying to add funds over the 7 day option & nothing happened no mater how many times  i tried , i did phone pay pal around 4 times again nothing suggested helped till i spoke to one at the call centre & he said try online transfer, so i set that up with my bank , aftergetting all securirty codes to get to my account i went through proccess of transfering some money, all went well till i put in my pal pal id number & for what ever reason kept saying void. so i phoned the bank & went through every thing with them , they set up my transfer & said i would have no problem next time!!. So this afternoon checked my pay pal ballance & the transfer was a success, so i recomend to all that have the 7 day option blocked to do it on line. you need to go to the box next to the 7 day option there is pay pal sort code & account number that you need + your id number that is alphanumeric. regards Terry ...

HI David   I have started to set up a on line banking service, to see if that helps, i was wondering about closing the account then reopen it with a new password, but wont go down that route unless the on line banking fails to add funds. Regards Terry ... View more

HI   I am also having the same problem as you , i tried using a differnt computer but still get same error message, i been on the phone several times now & also emails but still getting no where. It is so frustrating that a few days ago i added funds & no problems i now spent most of that & want to top up, like you in modest amounts. Even with that going on i was still able to buy goods the other day, so i know i am not being prevented from using pay pal all togeather, I was thinking of closing the account & then reopen with new password but not sure if it will let me do that using same email address. If you get your problem solved please send me note how it was done & i will do same so other members can get back to using there accounts. Each time i email or phone they just assume i am a computer geek & can do any thing, far from it even thou my desk pc is home made & i modified this pc fitting a new solid state drive & more ram. regards Terry ...

HI Again Melody   This morning after sending around 5 emails to customer care i have a reply ref same problem as you have so this may come as a shock when i give the reason the transfer is not working, According to pay pal it is because i am trying to transfer more than £99 at one time yes i kid you not i never heard such rubbish, as i transfered much more than that in one transfer operation when buying my ols lap top from E buyer , Thats the one  i am trying to replace now as it has died for good this time, I have sent a other email back to customer care they have sujjested i use top  up instead but that is less convenieant to me having money going out from the bank when i don't want it as i other comitments that take more priority than computers.

Hi again Melody   That don't sound very much like a customer service dept  if they cannot help out with the problem ,i am still waiting to get a reply from them, getting more hacked off each day.   It seems very strange it let me do two transfer of money during the last month  but not now i just don't get it. If its not your bank problem then it  must be coming from pay pal,   Will let  you know if any thing changes over next few days but not holding my breath! Regards Terry ... View more

I am trying to   out renew my Kaspersky licence after filling in all details of what i am buying it then gives payment option so i press pay pal  button then when i go to check it is asking me to fill in a form for name & addres but after doing that it is asking for credit card detail , I do not have any credit card & as i asked to make payment by pay pal why should they ask for it. So at the moment i give up with it, any ideas why they are asking for some thing i did not or cannot use.   regards Terry ... View more

Hi  every one & happy Christmas,   On the 19 dec  I tried to buy one year account on flicker pro, when it asked for payment I got all sorts of error messages coming up as I pressed pay by pay pal  , frustration soon set in so I had to start again, the same thing happened. so I closed my flicker went look at my pay pal account it showed two payments to flicker pending, I went back to flicker & after ages managed to get from there help page to sending a email to flicker explaining what happened, I was assured that only one of those payment would be taken from my pay pal account , that it would be resolved within 24 hours, here we are several days later & it is still showing pending, when I go to my flicker account I get a message telling me my account is due for renewal, as if I was not trying to do something about it, Has any one had success paying for flicker account with pay pal, why is it just taking so long for such a simple thing to do, there is plenty of money in my pay pal account to pay flicker so I know that's not holding it up. I am getting very frustrated with it all   regards Terry ... View more
