I pretty much only use paypal for the pay-in-4 feature, usually to buy airsoft stuff or trinkets on Etsy. Long story short I had to cover a family member's car payment and that resulted in me not being able to pay $23 for my final pay-in-4 plan at that time until a week later when my next pay check came in, that was a few weeks ago and today I tried to use pay-in-4 again and was declined and now the option doesn't even appear at checkout anymore.
So am I like blacklisted from using it for being a week late on a $23 payment? And will I ever be able to use it again?
PayPal is running a special with 20% back when using their Pay in 4 option. So for example, I buy something for $600, am I billed $150 or they deduct $150 from my bank account associated with them every two weeks? Or do they put the $150 on my PayPal Credit card on a every two week schedule and I pay it on my own? Getting $120 back seems like a good deal so I want to make sure I am using this option correctly without paying interests. Thanks!
Is anyone else having issues with using Pay In 4?
I was able to use it for the first time with no issue last night and when I tried to use it again I got a generic error and it is no longer an option under “PAY LATER”....
So I called customer service and was able to submit a ticket for this issue. Just wondering if anyone else out there is able to use Pay In 4 because I think it’s a global issue...
Let me know!!
If you have not done so, Read our FAQ! which answers most questions.
Please note that with the current CoVid-19 crisis that support is very limited at PayPal. No one here can fix that or offer solutions. The most common answer is to telephone PayPal support. However at this time such a call may be frutile, though you can keep trying.
Try contacting PayPal support using social media such as Facebook or Twitter as this works more often than telephoning.

I was attempting to purchase a phone online using a website that processes payments with PayPal. I saw the Pay in 4 option and thought it would be better than losing all the money up front. The site didn't seem to process it and I didn't get a confirmation of purchase. Attempted it again. Now I have two "processing" purchases but can't get through to anyone to help with it. The app won't let me cancel or report the transactions, the call line doesn't put me through to an agent. My bank and the site I was buying from weren't able to help and I'm extremely frustrated by this whole experience.
