Paypal's no accepting my credit card

    Couple of days ago my Paypal account just stopped working. When I try to make simple payment I get an error message: "This credit card has been denied by the bank that issued your credit card. For details on why your card was denied, please contact your credit card issuer's customer service department. Or, you may want to try adding a different credit card."

    And there's nothin wrong with my VISA. It works in every other online payment service there is. It's just Paypal's not accepting my credit card anymore.

    I just have one credit card and definetely not gonna get another one because of Paypal.

    So is my only option here to go for eGold or Moneybookers? Or is there anyway to use Paypal without credit card? I live in Finland if that matters.

    Don't know what problem you have but i think you should use eGold / MoneyBookers as an alternative but nothing is popular as PayPal. May be you should call PayPal to solve this issue.

    Have you contacted your bank for the same? May be they are the ones not letting paypal to use your VISA card online..I have been using paypal for 2 years now and have never faced any problem with them. The first card with which I verified my account was also a VISA card. Also check, if that method is allowed in your country..If you don't want that hassle, moneybookers would be just fine. I have used their service once. Have never used e-gold though.

    As far as I know you must have some cash on you'r card, like 1.5 usd or something like that for the card to get verified.

    Yea, that was the problem. I called to my bank. I thought there was more credit, but I was wrong. Time to start amortize my credit card bill :)
