PayPal has been doing this shit for decades. Y'all remember when if you were involved in a payment dispute they'd put a hold on your entire linked back account? Or when you contacted customer support they told your to wait # amount of days before filing a complaint? And then when you did they told you to contact the seller because lol fuck you? It's almost like the CEO was a raging asshole or something.

They are altering the deal. Pray they don't alter it any further.

You add your card thinking you can remove it at any time

PayPal: "All too easy."

Add another card, in my case I used a virtual card, then you can remove that card. If you use a virtual card you can invalidate that card when you’re done.

Paypal has altered the deal. Pray they do not alter it further.

They locked my account and are holding my funds for 6 months.

They did this to me decades ago and I ended up having to get a new card so the old one would no longer work. I haven't used paypal since. Fuck them.

I mean I wouldn't allow you either, that card is magnificent and the fact the picture shown online is not a generic card is more magnificent. Removing it from anywhere should be a sacrilege.

That's what you get if you work for the Empire.

Side note, would recommend considering a bank that doesn't support the fossil fuel industry. Sadly, Chase is among the worse offenders.

Report the card as lost and they will issue a new one with a new number.

I've been trying to change my account region for 10 years without a coherent or positive response so far.... good luck with that.

I'm sorry but WTF is a Star Wars credit card? And why?

I had the same issue with Google Workspace. Could not terminate my subscription until I "deleted all apps", and apps list was empty. My pre-cancelled tier did not have customer support privileges.

I had to cancel my credit card and have been getting warnings about being sued if I don't add a working payment card.

I mean yeah I guess a bug is clearly mildly infuriating. But it's also a bug. And the way your title is phrased, it's like PayPal is intentionally preventing you from removing your card. Which it doesn't seem to be pointing to here. Like I could imagine if they don't want to let you have no cards on your account without completely closing the account. But the message would say something like that. Like "you're required to have at least one valid card on your account. " The message isn't just going to say something like "please try again later" unless its a bug. That's just telling you that a bug happened and you may need to contact customer support to resolve it.

Lol. PayPal wanted me to jump through more hoops than my bank when my legal name changed after I got married. I literally provided them with documentation and they wanted me to send them a physical notarized official copy of my marriage license.

Call them
