Hi. I am new to PayPal Access Card. Have had a search through this board but still none the wiser! 🙂 I received my card last week. I activated it and confirmed the funding source as per image below. This implied that when I use my card in a retailer, my credit card will be debited if I don't have any funds in my PayPal account. I have a friend who says he uses his card in this way and it works. When I attempted to use the card for my first transaction (in Waitrose) it declined. I called customer services for the Access Card and they say it is because I don't have a balance. I'm confused since I am getting different information. Also, in the help 'sticky' at the top of this board, it says I need a premier account - is this still the case? I can only find an option for a business account when I click the upgrade to business account link. Thanks for your help. Apologies if I'm being dense!
