Contact card Issuer

[yilaescene]

I have already linked my PayPal with my Mastercard and already did a transaction, but now when I try to make another transaction PayPal is telling me to contact the card issuer or use another card. (the card has a balance for the transaction)

Hi @yilaescene 

Thank you for the post. I understand you are unable to make a payment through card linked to PayPal. It is possible that this transaction is declined by card issuer or there is a security block on this particular transaction. Please try making this transfer post 48 hours. If the issue persists, do contact PayPal Support for better assistance. You can also reach out by sending a private message on Facebook or a direct message on Twitter.

Thank you

Heer

Has this situation been resolved? I've run into the same problem. Can't make a payment, getting the same message. I even verified my card (the $1.95 thing), but it didn't change anything. My card is fine, my bank doesn't see a problem on their end, and I don't have a different card to use as an alternate method. The last time I used the same card with my Paypal without verifying it was in January, and there was no issue then.

I had the same issue. What I did was go to my bank and have them destroy the old card and issue a new one. I suspect the expiration date was faulty as it seemed to be the error returned that the bank told me.
