OK. I got mine figured out. In the text that Paypal sent, saying that I had money, they included a web address. Since my phone doesn't have internet, I didn't use it. But since I wasn't getting any help from Paypal I decided to manually type the web address into my browser. (Kind of a pain since it was random text and long.) It took me to a website that asked for my Paypal login and then sent/texted a code to my phone that I put in on the next screen. As soon as I input the confirmation code, the money was credited to my account. It now appears that my cell, email, and Paypal account are all linked. I'm thinking that this will be a one time event since I have now confirmed the links between those three entities. Good luck to all those that still need help in figuring this out.
