If PayPal tell you the payment has failed at our end it means that our payment security systems have not accepted the payment – don’t worry this is nothing to be concerned about.

When this occurs PayPal may have reserved funds in advance for making the payment (depending upon how you paid PayPal) – please note that these could be displayed as ‘processed’ or ‘pending’ on your statement. Don’t worry, we won’t be taking those funds and they will be automatically returned by your card issuer/bank once they are aware that we are not going to collect them. It can take between 5 – 10 working days for your card issuer/bank to return the payment.

• Select the correct country (the country in which you are making the payment from) for your payment.

We've recently updated our PayPal verification rules to make it easier for you to grab your items and soup up your subscriptions using PayPal! This means you no longer need to verify your PayPal account in order to make larger purchases, or subscribe to more than one account!

As a result, if you’re planning on using your PayPal account to grab more than one subscription across multiple accounts, all you need to do is head down to the Subscription page, fire up your new subscription by following the on screen instructions, and plunge right into the carnage!

Easy!
