Monzo CA linked with PayPal

Hey

Just tried to link the Monzo CA with Paypal
I can confirm this doesn’t work… see attached:

Worked for me the other day, had to do it on desktop though the mobile website and app weren’t having any of it

Mine worked okay -

Strange - I tried it on the desktop.
Ok - I’ll try again

Thanks

Same here. I added via PC if that helps.

there was a text from Monzo earlier saying they currently had issues with payments, that may be the reason

[dwll (David)]

ok - just tried a different browser / machine… still no go. But at least i know you guys have it working.

But at least i know you guys have it working.

Here’s the team’s comment on that -

PayPal won't accept Bank Accounts that are 'virtual'. Does that apply to Monzo?

Not entirely sure what is meant by ‘virtual’ here but adding your card to PayPal is supported on both the Beta and CA cards. Connecting a bank account works with our current accounts. I suspect by ‘virtual’ they mean pooled accounts that act like our Beta card top ups where the reference is required for all incoming transfers and Direct Debits are not supported.

Thanks Alexs

Just tried a couple of times - Its a no go for me… which makes it frustrating when others can.

No problem for me either (and it was via mobile)

My PayPal is linked to my current account. Do you get any other information?

[SC95]

My PayPal is linked and approved I also got that £1 paypal authorisation code thing as well and refund next day.

Mines added to PayPal and received many faster payments into my Monzo account.

Had no issues at all. Double check the address on your PayPal account.

Hey all

I have my account added to Paypal and I am just waiting for PP to deposit a penny in my account. Does anyone know how long this takes as I added the account yesterday and it hasn’t come in yet.

[ohitsdough (Dónal Murray-Ferris)]

Typically- it came through about 2 minutes after this!

I received an email (2nd) today that PayPal wasn’t able to take money form my PayPal Credit account to pay for the monthly repayment… It only started happening when I changed my bank account details to Monzo…

I’ve already contacted PayPal to ask them for more details… Anyone else facing the same problem?

mine is linked to my monzo card and account no problems.
