  I want to use PayPal to pay the $17for redirecting to my new domain and I keep getting told
  “We’re sorry, we weren’t able to complete your payment or set up preapproved payments at this time. Please try again later.
  Please return to the merchant and choose another way to pay.”

  I have tried for a few days with no success. The funds are available.

  Hi @joannamontreal, are you paying with a paypal balance or a connected bank account? I’ve sometimes seen odd issues if you’re using PayPal to draw from your bank.

  Maybe that is it! I transferred the money thinking maybe that was the cause, so just have to wait the 3-5 business for it to transfer. It’s too bad if that is the reason though. Paypal is set up so you shouldn’t have to worry about that.

  Thank you for the reply! I appreciate it!

  @joannamontreal you bet – did you work this out yet?

  I tried again today and it didn’t work. Paypal does say 3-5 business days for fund transfers though. If it doesn’t work when I have the funds in paypal, I’ll let you know.

  @joannamontreal I did some googling and saw that some folks have apparently contacted PayPal support for help with that, too. I hope that helps.
