    Sounds like the buyer is trying to pay via credit card through paypal. You need a premier account iirc to accept those type of payments.

    With Paypal have you confirmed you're address and everything on it, can take up to 10 days to do that, if not could be why you are getting that message.

    No, you can pay via creidt card to a standard account. Maybe it has to be a 'verified paypal account', can't remember.

    Tranfering money to your bank account can take 10 days or more, but i usually find it takes 5-7 days. It's free if the amount is over £50, a 50p charge is aplied if its under.

    EDIT : Premier just mean's you account is verified. Paypal will charge a small free (a few pence) to you account then refund it. If you look on the bank/credit card statement you will see reference number. Enter this in at paypals website and your verified. Paypal ill only accept £500 (IIRC) of transactions until you verify it (will work normally until you reach that amount).

    While were on the subject of the confirmed status thingy, is it true that to have a "confirmed" address you have to have a credit card attached to your paypal account rather than a bank account?

    No.

    But you do have to do a few verification checks, like they phone you up via a machine, and they add between 1-90p to your account and stuff and you tell them the amount, so that they know it's your account.

    Did you mean pay by, or receive payments from credit cards?

    My darn Paypal account would not accept a credit card payment yesterday without "upgrading". I had to refuse the payment and tell the user to pay again. My address and bank details are verified. How they call paying 3.4% on money received an upgrade is beyond me, lol.

    i'm having the same problem currently...i'll have to refuse and then ask the buyer to re-send the money. what a hassle. can't understand after all the hoop jumping to add an account it then asks you to upgrade to premium rubbish. what money grabbing time wasters!

    oh jesus, f^£$£*g, bloody what a pile of...
    i got the buyer to resend the payment and its still demanding I upgrade to premium account - for a fee and will contiune to charge me left right and centre. its also f*ing me around with someone I'm trying to send money to...! aaaaah!!
    do I have to be owning a premium account to accept money through? what a joke!

    edit: something to do with the fact its 'funded with a credit card' ...?
    is there something i suggest the buyer to change to make it all happy and so I don't have to go sign up for yet more at paypal?...

    Just had a look in my paypal transaction history, my very first transaction was from a guy with a credit card tied to his paypal account, had no option but to upgrade to a premium account.

    EDIT: take a look here
