Problems w/ PayPal?

Now I know why so many sellers do not use PayPal !
In the last few days I tried to pay for eBay auctions using the"BuyIt Now' option with PayPal. All failed. For some reason they refused to accept my password. I tried everything ,even called their TOLL number where I was told I'd have to wait 9 minutes (on Long Distance at PRIME rates!!!) to speak to a human being. When they finally accepted my Password, I pressed "Continue"and went back to the Log In screen ad infinitum.
I'm finished with them. I switched over to Billpoint.
Any comments?

I have a comment if you are intertested. Recently I had the same problem with "wrong password"... it was not wrong but there you are.
I found a e-mail link and complained, stated that i could not and would not make an international call (I am in Norway). I just said it costs too much and I was sure I would get into one of these... press number....
Anyway, I left me name, e-mail addres and phone number (my mobile phone number).
I received a call from a GREATLY helpful lady. She gave me an emergengcy log-in password, where I could change to my own password... She also gave me her telephone number in the USA which she said was an "answer/message" contact. I should just then leave my name and phone number and that she would phone me back so that I did not have to pay for the call.
Everything worked GREAT for me and I am 100% satisfied. (I was very frustrated when I could not access Paypal)...... I was trying to pay a member on this forum for an item..... I had to beg off and apologise.
Use the e-mail contact. It worked great for me.

When you log in, a cookie (little text file) is placed on your computer and it tells your computer how long before you are logged out of PayPal (obviously extened if you are using the logged in time, based on how long you are idle). If your clock is set too far ahead (my computer was set a year ahead) your machine will be told to log you out just under 1 year before you logged in, hence the trouble.
So make sure the date is right as that could keep you from ever logging in.

Airplanenut is correct. Sometimes you have to delete your cache and cookies to clear out the junk from previous sessions. That has worked for me in the past.
BTW, airplanenut, what's with the flag?

Did you try the "forgot your password" link?

What would your slabbed coins be worth if the grading services went out of business? What would your coins be worth if the Internet was taken offline for good?
I still have to turn it back on to use Billpoint, or eBay brings me back to the log-in page repeatedly.
Just cookie-phobic, I guess.
