Gift card for UK Pay-Pal
 

I'm from UK. My PayPal credit card has expired and I need a new vcc , I went to tesco Extra for the visa gift card but not sure which one I should use go for.

I asked for the vanilla and gospendit gift card at the reception, but they told me that they don't sell these one!!!

Ive seen a gift card( visa prepaid, a gift for you £25 ) is that the right one?
How much fund does it need to have in the card?

((((((((so confusing)))))


Please help


Thanks in advance. :)

If there's a MasterCard there then that would be preferable as some of the Visa ones are non-AVS. If this is the only one:- then it will certainly do the job.

The card only needs £1 on it to add and confirm on Paypal.

That's the gospendit visa card. They do them in £25 and £50, You should also find the mastercard ones there on a peg alongside these.

You may find that there are 2 different colour packages. I have found that they cannot always get the red ones to scan. Never had a problem with the other one that scans as silver but is in a blue package!

You do need to use a till with an operator on and not the self scan or scan and shop ones.

The last £25 mastercard I had from Morrisons worked without a problem. I admit that was a good few months ago though. I get the ones from Tesco and have no problem with them. The last one I had was about 2 months ago. Used the £25 balance to buy shipping through the paypal account.

Hi, after failing with the tesco / Morrison gift card and master card .
I then try to add a brand new halifax bank credit card and I'm still getting this message (We're sorry, we can't add this card. Please try adding a different card to your account)

Note : I didn't use this paypal account for over 2 years.
The credit card was expired in 2014. I restart using this paypal 3 weeks ago because I want to sell on ebay.

Both pay_pal and e-Bay are stealth account which was bought here...

Am I doing something wrong?
Should I contact paypal?


Please help me out....

Thanks in advance
