Old PayPal account in collections
 

Hey! I just regained access of an 5 yr old eBay account I thought I lost forever when I upgraded computers.... lost story. My PayPal, however, is locked for a $13.85 balance. I cannot reset my password to login but customer support told me all I have to do is pay the balance due and it'll be reactivated.

I haven't been in the eBay/Paypal game for some time... What type of card should I use to pay this debt?

Thank you for the help.

Please let me know if you have any questions on this or any other questions on your PayPal account."

Cheap? Usually the fee is as much as the amount owed...

I have contacted a seller on the forum and he's going to get me a custom amount on a PayPal VCC to pay the balance. I will update if the account gets reactivated or if they just take my money lol
