Paypal question...

[NiceCupOfTea]

This is on behalf of my wife - I set mine up ages ago.

She's just won an ebay auction and has set up a paypal account. Apparently she is limited to paying 500 quid a month - whatever.

When she tried to pay via paypal it told her that she has exceeded her monthly limit!

What's up with that then?

I thought it was about £300 limit in total, until you validate your cards?

You can add another credit/debit card (I think) and pay with that.

Otherwise you will have to get your card verified by getting you expanded use number (2 small amounts get billed to your car, just verify them and you are free to spend. They will get credited back on your first purchase I think )

I would just start the verfification process now if I were you, free of hassle and limitations then!
If you email the seller of the item and say you are having Paypal problems I am sure they will understand. You could always send them a cheque I s'pose.

Weird - of course it hasn't validated yet, but given that the item is 30 dollars I can't see that mattering.

Not a problem as she used my account to pay, just a bit weird that's all

Check your statements, just to see what has gone out. It happened to me and just turned out I was spending more than I thought

Makes it look like I haven't edited it and got it right first time (Sometimes)
