Hi first time poster. I recently had a purchase declined then it was approved about 2 minutes later. I have (2) cards on my account and I switched from (1) card to the other one to pay for the transaction. What do I need to do in order for this to not happen again ? Do I need to raise my limit, was this a one time glitch ? Any and all help will be greatly appreciated, because I do not want this to happen again.     ... View more

I have a paypal account and I have a card already linked to it for purchasing.   I recently received a PayPal MasterCard and it will not activate , it says I do not have a backup on file.   I want to add the paypal mastercard as a backup card to the card I have on file but I DO NOT want to take the other card off, I want (2) cards on file that I can choose from.   How do I activate the paypal mastercard and add it onto my account, without losing/deactivating or taking the other card off.   Any help will be greatly appreciated.   Thank You ...
