Clearing PayPal Credit

Choochchu

I wanted to get a 30 month 0% credit card to make some purchases and clear my PayPal Credit Account.

However, I’ve just realised that I don’t think you can use a credit card to clear the PayPal debt.

I’ve £1000 in there - what would be the best way to go about clearing this?

You'd need a money transfer card to clear that debt.

I just checked my PayPal Credit statement and there does seem to be what looks like a Credit Card number on the account.

It is partially hidden for security like this: Account No. XXXX XXXX XXXX 1234

Makes me wonder if it is in fact possible to transfer a balance from the account.

....I just tried, after it took me five days to get my 'card' number out of Paypal. Bloody disgusting.

Once I've cleared the 'normal' debt I'll only use PayPal credit when my purchase has a 0% fixed repayment plan available. Like poor old Argos, they'll never make a penny out of me in future!
