Recurring Payment Action Failure

I successfully subscribed to a service through a specific website, then canceled that subscription to change an option and when I clicked subscribe again, I got this error message. Another seller set up a subscription button for me and I had the same error. Has anyone ever seen this before or know what I can do to resolve it? Any help is appreciated.   This is the error:    Sorry - your last action could not be completed   If you were making a purchase or sending money, we recommend that you check both your PayPal account and your email for a transaction after 30 minutse.   If you came to this page from another website, please return to that site (don't use your browser's Back button) and restart your activity.   If you came from PayPal's website, click the PayPal logo in teh upper-left corner to return to our home page and restart your acrivity.

Schedule recurring payment (outgoing, personal, no...

I send money to my  mom every month on pay pal, and currently it's just down to me to remember to login and send it to her every time. Is there any way that I can schedule a recurring payment to go out on the same day every month?   There are all kinds of solutions if you want to set something up on your website for a customer to subscribe and all that jazz, but I want to reverse the scenario and send the money away every month. I really can't ask my mom to set up a widget to allow me to subscribe to sending her money. It just wouldn't work.   Every bank in the universe seems to have this feature, but I don't want to have to pay the fee to transfer between banks and paper checks are such a hassle, even if you do schedule them to automatically go out on a certain day. If there's some kind of runaround that I haven't been able to find, could someone please point it out for me? If not, Pay Pal, can you please figure out a way to make this more user friendly? kthx. ... View more
