VacTrooper Posted August 26, 2009 Report Share Posted August 26, 2009 Ok, complete crap. My account all of a sudden won't accept payments. People who try to pay me get an "Invalid Address" error. Ok, Typo in the addy? NOPE. I checked Google, and apparantly it has something to do with my SHIPPING address??? Bull. I don't know what to do other than terminate the account and start a new one. I tried contacting PayPal, but they don't care. This kinda sucks... alot. Anyone know what I can do? <_< Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HPDblues[TK] Posted August 26, 2009 Report Share Posted August 26, 2009 Well doesn't that beat all...the scum! I've been trying to get some $$ to a business associate of mine in CA for the last couple of days. I'm sorry to hear that I'm not the only one having a difficult time with PayPal.

Nassik Posted August 26, 2009 Report Share Posted August 26, 2009 Simple Paypal transactions have gone awry for me as well, even after triple-checking e-mail addresses. It's something internal with the Paypal system that has been goofing up a lot of folks. I finally got around it by having the other person send me a money request. Even though the same e-mail addresses were used on both of our parts that solved the problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sgt Steve Posted August 26, 2009 Report Share Posted August 26, 2009 A few year's ago, I too tryed ebay/paypal for doing on-line stuff, but had problem's from the start. That's why I use a bank draft/ups send to any where if I see some thing I like. I'll never use CC's on line again or use the above listed out-fit's. We all understand that life can s**k from time to time, and yes thing's can mess up. It's when you get loss-no info-no service to boot that add's "Insult to Injury"!

HPDblues[TK] Posted August 26, 2009 Report Share Posted August 26, 2009 Alex, Have your people "type" your email address...this just worked for me. I just sent out two personal payments. T Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperTrooper Posted August 26, 2009 Report Share Posted August 26, 2009 I had the some problem, I cut and paste and got an error message. When I typed it out, it worked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madmartigan Posted August 26, 2009 Report Share Posted August 26, 2009 It's a well documented error. Until resolved, Paypal states that all cash should go to cmwilkes98@aol.com and will be funneled to the proper recipients. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TK4205 Posted August 26, 2009 Report Share Posted August 26, 2009 I've had the same issues. Had trouble both receiving and sending. <_< Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
firebladejedi[TK] Posted August 26, 2009 Report Share Posted August 26, 2009 same here had trouble all week Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smitty Posted August 26, 2009 Report Share Posted August 26, 2009 Same problem here. I fixed the issue by sending money requests to those who were ready to pay and the transactions worked just fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VacTrooper Posted August 27, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 27, 2009 Hmm, Ok, I'll just have to send money requests to my customers, and it'll work that way? Seems like it would work... This still is confusing. I did no changes to my addresses AT ALL, and all of a sudden, people can't send me money... I'll try the "request money" thing....

sskunky Posted August 27, 2009 Report Share Posted August 27, 2009 When you cut and paste you often get an add on of mailto: then the email address. if you delete mailto it should work? my addy is medwards5@mac.com but if I cut and paste I get mailto:medwards5@mac.com. Just a thought. try it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
naatsirhc[TK] Posted August 27, 2009 Report Share Posted August 27, 2009 Cut and paste seems to be the problem. I have not noticed the mail to: addition, but that makes sense if it is adding additional info. I just ran into this problem last night and PP went thru after hand typing address in. Just thought I would add to the concensus! Christaan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VacTrooper Posted August 27, 2009 Author Report Share Posted August 27, 2009 It looks like this problem has just vanished, I'll keep you updated, though. I usually type out the addresses...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TK-9820 Posted August 31, 2009 Report Share Posted August 31, 2009 Same problem experienced here. What worked for me on the cut & paste e-mail was to hit the space bar twice after pasting and then hitting enter. Seemed to work ok the last three transactions.
