    @AskPayPal Hello the issue is not yet solved. I am a bit disappointed please fix the issue. It would be very disappointing to see PayPal have this problem while living in the middle east.

    @thetrainline It says any card. But website suggests this is only true if paid with Paypal and @AvantiWestCoast has just said it needs to be the payment card. The payment card is unfortunately in a different city so I may have a problem...

    @5Sugartea2 The ongoing commission is only for Koreans due to payment problems. If all commissions are completed without any problems this time, I am thinking of commissions using PayPal so that overseas people can apply later.

    I have eight crafters on my shop who I pay with @Paypal. I've sent /hundreds/ of payments and never had an issue. I've hired a person of color with a non-European name as a crafter, I go to pay them, it's the ONLY transaction PP's flagged for review. In four years.

    @ThroneSupport No it really is that simple and if I didn't have to stream I name you off several that I use and many others with no issues. Stripe unlike others who have it blanket ban people for stuff and is a known as a terrible company compared to paypal.
