How do I receive payments from eBay buyers? I've just recently changed my email address on both sites, and since then I cannot receive any money in my PayPal account. It's driving me crazy. ... View more

Re: Security Card Key problems - no security codes...

This is just ridiculous! I'm only on my second card but my gosh, I'm killing my thumb trying to push hard, then killing it again by trying to bend the card slightly while pushing. Mine will still not work each time I need it to, so I reactivated my original key fob thingy while the battery is still working. It's inexcusable  to have to do business this way!   It's very nice that PayPal and others have given us some options to try to get the thing to work, but come on ............. Are they going to send a perfected one (whenever that happens) to each of us that are having this problem? ... View more

Don't know if this will help anyone but thought I'd post my solution anyhow. 🙂   I've had the same issue for two days.   After struggling to get an actual phone number to call, I was able to determine that my particular problem was being caused because my security key had somehow been de-activated. I have one of the very first types of security keys and although it still appeared to be working for me - it somehow was not.   Ordered a new one, and until it arrives I was told to just use my password without the additional numbers that the key gives me. Problem solved. I'm a little nervous about not having that extra security but guess I'll have to live with it.     ... View more

Security key issue

Hi,   First time here ... been trying to find information on what to do if/when my security key fob stops working. I've had mine for about four years and keep wondering when the battery in it will die? I don't see anywhere on it that I could open it or replace the battery.   I have an eBay store so it's important that I can access both my eBay and PayPal accounts right away. Would appreciate any help you can give me.   Also I've heard that there is some new thing instead of the fob .... a security card? If there is such a thing, would it be better if I get one of those and then deactivate my key fob? If so, where might I find the info on the PayPal site? ... View more
