Sending Payment with Fidelity Checking Account

I created my PayPal account a few days ago. I linked my Fidelity checking account so that I could send money without fees. I have confirmed the account and it is officially linked to my PayPal account. However, when I go to send a payment, the only option available to me to send the money is via my debit card, which has a high fee associated with it. When I click on "change payment" on the payment screen, PayPal takes me to a blank screen and I can't get back to my payment. One attempt did give me the option to use my bank account, but it was only with a small test charge. When I tried it again with a larger charge, I could not choose my bank account. I tried again with that same small amount and it did not work again.

 

I called the help center, but they were unable to help me and kept insisting that the problem was something other than what I was describing. I'm hoping someone else has an answer to this problem. Thanks!

It could be your Fidelity checking account?

It is not like your regular bank checking account?

do you have a margin account with Fidelity?
