PayPal not allowing any prepaid cards for banks right now
 

I have been using prepaid bank cards as my bank account for years and now today all of a sudden they will not add. Had this problem late last year but they started working again mid November. I know they are not safest method but I run many accounts and getting that many brick&mortar banks is not an option for me right now. I do small amounts monthly on each account ($400-600) and have really never had too much trouble using them. I do always have a VBA attached from a big bank prior to adding the prepaid bank. Anyone else having this problem? So far I havent been affected with the banks I added prior to today and have been able to make withdrawals as normal..

Yes, a lot of prepaid banks not seem to be working as of about 3-4 days now for me too and sending money seems to be a little bit harder on newer accounts. Sometimes you can get a bank pushed through by clicking other bank and entering routing number and account number, try waiting 24 hrs before adding the bank and also confirming your phone number helps
