Deleting and re-adding the card seems to have worked. Thanks for the advice, and excuse the 'tough' language in my posts, but I felt this was the only way to get a response. ... View more

Paypal have a faulty credit card security system which flags certain cards for no logical reason. Check out my last post in this thread: https://www.paypal-community.com/t5/How-to-use-PayPal/view-limits-button/td-p/4280   It may or may not be the cause of your problem. Yours might be solvable, but don't expect any help from Paypal on this forum. Call them up instead. ... View more

OK, just called my local Paypal number and was told that in fact the problem is not resolvable. And Paypal are very aware of what's going on. Here's the situation for all you frustrated Paypal users out there: basically, Paypal's faulty security system settings blocked the release of funds my card for no logical reason. Apparently, this is an ongoing problem that, according to the customer service agent I spoke to, Paypal have not managed to resolve and technically there is no way they can manually 'unblock' my card. So, in other words, I can no longer use Paypal to make purchases with my credit card. For those of you setting up online businesses using Paypal as a payment agent, I'd be very aware of this.   Perhaps, the moderator on this forum has been instructed to ignore customers reporting this kind of difficulty. Nice job you have moderator - getting paid to sit back and read flame posts and occassionally responding with empty advice.   Ex paypal customer ... View more

No, I have not changed cards. It is in fact my first and only card, and it has not expired. I'm using it to make direct online purchases and in stores, etc. However, I'm unable to use it to make a payment on Gumtree for some reason, and since customer service there is not existent, I'm forced to use this rubbish Paypal service.    If you do a search, you'll find many other users have the same problem, and it seems Paypal moderators are totally unhelpful and apathetic. WHY ISN'T ANYONE HELPING ME? DON'T YOU WANT TO MAKE MONEY OFF ME, PAYPAL?? ... View more

When attempting to make a very small online purchase, I receive the prompt:   "You have exceeded your per transaction limit. To lift this limit, click View Limits on you Account Overview page."   However, I can't find this View Limits button. It does not exist. The status of my account is "verified" ...I understand that this means that the View Limits button is not available and that there should not be a limit, in which case why I am being prompted with the above message?   Other posts on this topic have been of very little assistance. Please reply with practical instruction or advice, not with obvious questions like "Have you verified your account?" or unhelpful statements like "If your account is verified the button is not available". I repeat: the status of my account is "VERIFIED".     ... View more
