PayPal feature removed from Coinstar kiosks

[PayPal_Dustin]

Greetings Community,

We just wanted to let everyone know that PayPal will no longer be an option on Coinstar kiosks due to limited consumer adoption. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. Customers have other options for loading cash to their PayPal accounts, which can be found on PayPal's website: https://www.paypal.com/webapps/mpp/addcash.

I have a paypal debit card and I need to buy something (with cash) but I can't find a way to withdraw cash from my account! There's no way I can wait the ridiculous 2-3 days or anything like that, I need the money today before christmas. I tried CoinStar but I couldn't find the "withdraw" option for the life of me, it only let me add money, even though I read a guide saying you could withdraw!
Could I take the money out using the Paypal Mastercard? What bank do I go to to do that? It's $700 I have in the account, and I need the cash. Please Help!

Thank you.

Fuggedabout it, unless you have the PayPal debit card ... that works in regular ATM's just like a bank card ...  in fact, FYI, Coinstar machines can't be used for anything relatted to PayPal as of last month, apparently.

If you have a PayPal debit card, you can withdraw funds instantly at most major ATMs. Contact PayPal if you don't know or have forgotton your PIN.

Just kind of thinking out loud here, but with any luck, someone from Paypal will see this. I've only used it once, the second time I tried, it said my card was not set up to use the machine. Not the most sophisticated technology, but it comes in handy if you really need it. Like today, I need to go deposit my piggy bank into my Paypal account so I can pay a last minute expense.

Anyways, there are three coin stars within a 5 mile radius of me. Only one is set up for Paypal. As you may have heard, Albertsons is going to be closing 11 stores, one of which houses my local Coinstar/Paypal machine. Wonder if they will expand this feature to more stores.

No "they" will NOT, in fact they have ended it completely, to my dismay.

As I've done many times before, I went to the local Coinstar kiosk today to deposit coins into my Paypal acct. but this time there was no option for Paypal deposits, only cash vouchers, charity and eCards. This was true at the next kiosk I went to also. Anyone know what's going on here?

Greetings.  You are s***'d if you thought you could make deposits at designated Coinstar kiosks.   Vast sums were lost by Coinstar setting this up no doubt.. just look at those lonely non-functional bill scanners that used to agilely accept my 50's and 100's... what a shame !

I've been using coinstar to deposit money in my paypal for awhile, however just recently (in the past few weeks it seems) I've tried depositing money into my account and all it says is it can't find my account.

I've used every e-mail in on my account to no avail, and when I try to go re-enroll just in case it's gotten messed up, the page it links to https://www.paypal.com/webapps/mpp/coinstar after I hit enroll, and log in the page just refreshes and nothing else.

Kinda don't know what to do at this point so any assistance would be helpful! 🙂

Exact same thing is happening to me. Have you found a solution?
