Windows 10: Charged my Paypal without telling me how much

Bought a game from the microsoft store. Had a balance of $62 in gift cards. Told me they needed additional payment methodd for taxes and fees.


Microsoft ended up charging my paypal account, once for $14, and once for $41, then refunded the $14 charge, and only taking $10 of the gift card balance.


At NO POINT did it tell me how much money was coming out of my paypal account when I made the purchase. I would like a refund, and to remove my financial information from this site.

Unable to login to Paypal phone broken

I use an authenticator app on my phone for 2 step verification to login to paypal but my phone is broken so I can no longer get the code. I've tried using the microsoft authenticator app on another device but it's looking for a QR code to scan which I can't access since I can't login to paypal

Paypal tells me they is no way they can turn off the 2 step verification whjich means I cannot ever access my account.

There must be a way around this?

 

Can't access Paypal

Hi,

Running Windows 10 on an Acer laptop.

Cannot load Paypal website.

Have tried using multiple browsers;

• Internet Explorer
• Firefox
• Opera
• Google Chrome

Unable to access via any of these.

Have run scans using Malware Bytes and Avira - comes up clean.

No issues opening any other web sites on the laptop - secured or otherwise.

If I turn off the router and use my mobile as a hotspot I can connect the laptop to Paypal ok.

If I revert to using home wifi then the laptop Paypal problem recurs.

Desktop computer can connect to Paypal using the home wifi.

Process of elimination suggests the problem is with the laptop wifi settings or Firewall somehow.

Far from a computer expert - just your average frustrated user trying to do something that seems like it should be simple.

Anyone had this or similar problem and worked it out?
