So i got PayPal credit but when trying to set up a Direct Debt, it only shows the option to add an account. Not use your existing accounts. I try to add my current account but its just tells me it's already li ked to PayPal. Yes it is, so why cannot i not select it ir set up a DD not it. The AC allows DDs BTW.

2. How do I set up a direct debit?
You can set up monthly direct debit payments, provided you have a bank account linked to your PayPal account.
- Log into your PayPal account and select PayPal Credit
- Select “Set up a direct debit payment”
- Choose how much you want to pay each month and from which bank account.

Kudos / Solution appreciated.

The issue there is is "from what bank account" the only option is to add a new payment method, however when I add my bank it returns an error saying this bank is already connected.

Did you resolve this as I'm having the same issue. Currently scheduling reminders to make individual payments which isn't ideal.

Same problem. Set up a direct debit. Link a bank. Bank already linked. Missed a payment already and my credit score has dropped. Very annoying.
