Then there is something wrong with the connection or the site. Or maybe there's a window hidden at the back of your screen you need to respond to ?

they did say pay by other means for this time, because they said they will get back to me to confirm my identity

PayPal opens okay for me

Who is 'they', Piggynose?

[piggynose]

they, paypal

PayPal is a payment service, not a travel company. They don't sell 'trips'!

[piggynose]

i do know, but useful when you want to use them instead of normal credit card companies

[Everhelpful]

I wouldn't go any further with it,piggynose,sounds dodgy to me.

Are you paying with money from your PayPal account or are you simply paying a firm that uses PayPal's payment service (with the money coming from your bank account)?

If it's the latter it's likely to be your bank's computer system which is slowing things down (as they seek to authorise your card), rather than a problem with PayPal itself.

the problem arose when i tried to book a hotel using Logitravel, they wouldn't accept my credit card, so i thought why not use paypal. by the looks of things i think i'll never get to use their services, because twice now they said they needed to check my identity, and said they'd email me. still waiting for that 1st email.

the main reason i wanted to use paypal, was because i spoke to a man who use to work for diner card, and he said paypal is the best method of paying for things over the net, he said when you use credit card companies your c,card data is exposed to more than one company.
