How do you add a vanilla visa gift card?/ Force transaction

[potentate]

I was having some trouble as to how to add a vanilla visa gift card to paypal.

My previous vanilla would work, so i know it can be done.

Everytime i add the vanilla, it gives me the error. " card issuer does not allow checking the card's billing address.".

When i contacted my costumer support they told me to do a force transaction that they would accept it, which i have no idea how to do.

So was wondering how some of the people who have used this gift card have gone around the problem(cant shop online as everytime i do it asks for the address, which with my gift card denies anything that goes beyond the zipcode on the card, or have used the forced transaction.

Maybe someone can verify this? I'm having the SAME exact problem.

I just used a 25$ gift card with no problem at all.

Right now though my 50$ gift card wont go through the adding process.

Hey I figured it out! Create a new account! After you create your account, you will have two options. They include: Add Bank or Add Credit Card. Choose Add Credit Card. Enter your info and there! Go to profile and verify your Vanilla CC!
