Question Re: cannot use Redemption code with my paypal account in PayPal & Payments

cannot use Redemption code with my paypal account

Hello, I cannot use any redemption code when using my PayPal direct debit bank account. It is asking me for my Credit Card, which I don't want to use. I don't want to use Afterpay as well.

Thanks

Kind regards

Francois

That's the conditions of using the code. It should accept a debit or credit card....but you lose the PayPal protection. It's annoying though to get these kind of conditions.

I'm not signing up for Afterpay for a few dollars off when I don't NEED Afterpay.

Same for using the App - I don't have a mobile phone and don't plan to buy one anytime soon.

For me these offers are just Spam.
