Pay pal has worked for me many years using existing Visa on file. Now it will not work on site tau site. What is the problem? @snowshoe wrote: You need to verify your account. It's your choice not to but, basically you can't do much. Prepaid cards can also be an issue, they are usually not accepted for verification and you must be able to register both a name and address with the card issuer else, PayPal will reject the card. Why is verifying my account important and removing my limits important? All US financial institutions such as banks, credit card issues and 3rd party transaction processors such as PayPal are required by law to verify the identity of the person behind any and all Accounts into which money is collected. Verification mitigates money laundering and terrorist financing. PayPal takes advantage of the fact that you had to prove to the bank you are who you say you are. Therefore, by linking and confirming your bank account, the background work has already been done and PayPal has now met the legal requirements to protect themselves. PayPal's FAQs state: To Verify your PayPal account, just link your bank account to your PayPal account or be approved for PayPal Smart Connect or the PayPal Plus MasterCard®. From experience, we’ve learned that in order to use PayPal without limits, it best to link and confirm a bank account plus link and confirm a credit card or register your SSN # or do all three. (Note, when you link and confirm a credit card, this acts as additional proof of ID, a backup funding source and allows you to do instant transfers verses sending eChecks or in the UK eCheques.) sorry, I will not.
