r/paypal on Reddit: Has anyone noticed? PayPal is able to update Credit/Debit card information... Without manual intervention from yourself.
September 28, 2021 -
Just realised today that PayPal was able to update my new Debit Card information without any authorisation from me.
I'm not annoyed that it's happened, not for PayPal, at least. But how many companies can achieve this?
Part of the charm of getting a new card is protection from more obscure shopping sites getting hacked.
Oh, Delta Airlines has a breach, no problem, I paid for the flight 8 years ago, and that card is long gone.
I feel a bit vulnerable now...
The prospect of all the random stores I shop at getting a memo from Visa with all my information is a little disturbing.

TLDR: when a new card is issued, Visa / Mastercard sends the updated info to Paypal - even if the credit card number has changed.

This is a system setup by the banking and credit card companies to make transitions between old and new cards less painful for users. It is not something specific to PayPal, but is industry effort. The system is automatic, and stores and merchants don't get notifications as such, just a computer update.

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 am a bot, and this action was performed automatically. Please contact the moderators of this subreddit if you have any questions or concerns.

That's not limited to PayPal. Businesses that have card info 'on file' to charge later (such as for memberships or if the customer elects to store a card) often have difficulties when a customer doesn't update their card info. Auto card updater services cut down on declines and cancelled memberships that come from out of date stored card info.

Why is this a bad thing? Unless your last card got stolen, this should save you the time and hassle of realizing your card number changed (when you go to pay for something, get declined, and realize it's because your card number changed) and updating it in PayPal.

r/paypal on Reddit: PayPal updated my credit card information without my consent
February 10, 2022 -
I have never used paypal, never bought anything or sent money or anything. I completely forgot I even set up an account. Apparently my card has been on there for years. I just received an email saying “We’ve updated your card’s expiration date.” I never gave them any updated information, my card’s expiration date did just change. How the hell do they get this information?
I somehow remembered my password and was able to remove the card. I want to delete the whole account though. This makes me nervous. Has anyone else gotten that email and had their information updated by PayPal?

From PP user agreement: Link or Unlink a Payment Method You can link or unlink certain payment methods such as a credit card, debit card, a U.S. bank account or PayPal Credit to your PayPal account. You can also link a Balance Account to your personal PayPal account as a payment method and unlink the Balance Account by withdrawing all funds and closing it. Please keep your payment method information current (e.g. credit card number and expiration date). If this information changes, we may update it using information and third-party sources available to us without any action on your part. If you do not want us to update your card information, you may remove your payment method from your PayPal account. If we update your payment method, we will keep any preference setting attached to such payment method. You may choose to confirm your card, so that we can verify that the card is valid and that you are the card owner. To do this, we will charge $1.95 to the card. After the card is confirmed, we will immediately refund this amount to the card.

This is automatic, and normal. This is done to make it easier for users to use PayPal (and other services do the same thing...) where in the middle of a transaction they don't get a "your card is expired" type of error. Normal and acceptable. And if you want to close your account over this, that's your choice.
