Why can't I use my PayPal balance to sign up for MF Membership?

Unibody · Jul 12, 2009

I'm trying to sign up for a Mac-Forums membership (You're welcome

), but I can't seem to find the option to use my PayPal balance (I have more than enough in there). The only option is eCheck which takes more than a week to process. Anyone help?

Thanks

There is a funding sources on the bottom of the page where you click pay. You should be able to change it the source from there.

Do you have an account with Pay Pal? I tried it and it went right to my pay pal login.

I do, see the screenie above. I can use an eCheck, but that takes a week to process. I was hoping to use my balance so its instant.

There's a rather annoying bug on this forum. Why did my post show above yours with a timestamp of one minute earlier? It's as if I predicted your post or something.

Maybe it's because your Canadian.

Probably. I'll just use the eCheck and wait ;D

It happens to quite a few of us I think. Yes, very annoying it is. Weird.

I have only noticed replies before the post they replied to maybe the last 2-3 months. Never once before that. Not sure what is up.

I would notify an Admin like Schweb, iWhat or Muso. Us Mods can't work on the forums software.
