    It is, I called and it was confirmed. Also, what about the other card? It's not prepaid.

    Youll have to wait patiently for someone like cyp to reply when he feels like it.

    When all else fails, to google! XD

    I found a help page that lists some possible issues...

    The card is linked with a pay pal account other than the one you're using.
    The card is linked with a pay pal account that's been closed.
    The card is linked to the account but not confirmed.
    The card limit has been exceeded.
    There's a problem with your email or billing address.

    ... And if it's none of that it suggests clearing your cookies and trying again.

    Does any of that make sense?

    Totally, I'm gonna try that now.



    EDIT: I've been trying to link my prepaid to my Paypal account but it doesn't work, it's supposed to do it automatically though, right? I logged in and activated my card and everything.

    I highly suggest you contact PayPal about it.

    I had the same problem with the visa gift cards. It seems they do not work online. luckynumber56 seems to know about this more.

    Because PayPal hasn't, or doesn't want to give me a debit card, I don't know too much about the errors people experience with them. When I donated, I used PayPal funds -- straight signing in and hitting Pay Now. If at all possible, I would have the funds in PayPal and check out, then sign in and pay from there.
    Good luck.
