I tried to logon today. Paypal accepted my login details but wants to check more security as I am in a different location (I am in the US, not the UK). It asked to text or call me on my phone. But if I give my UK phone number (which is the only one Paypal knows) then I cannot answer as I am using my USA phone. Why would I want to incur costs of an overseas call, not to mention any other data that tries to download while I am on an overseas SIM. I tried to email but it wants my UK phone number again. So I can't even contact Paypal (it only gives a UK based 0800 number so that will cost me more again, if it works?). This was the only way I could send out an SOS - to come to the community forum. Can anyone advise how to get over this barrier - without incurring costs of an overseas call? I need to make a payment urgently to an South African company! Oh the joys of the global village 🙂 Thanks!
