So after all the hoo-hah about CRC and card security I thought I’d have another go setting up my PayPal account for use with Internet shopping and the like.
I have never really gotten on with PayPal. I get the impression from others I should be able to use it as a single point where my bank card details are stored and when buying stuff online I should just be able to point the retailer to my PayPal account and it’ll charge my card accordingly. So I’ve added details for a debit card and a credit card to my PayPal account.
However what happens when I attempt to pay for something via PayPal is that I get only two options – PayPal balance (default) or eCheque. PayPayl’s help says that paying using the PayPal balance is the default option but it can be overridden. However I’ve never been able to get an option to pay using a card I’ve added.
Does anyone know what is likely to be the issue?
