here are the rules of thumb for paypal

paypal + Amex + RM = no go
paypal + Amex + foreign currency = good to go
paypal + Visa/Master + RM/foreign currency = good to go

thank you

this should be pinned at the start page

was also wondering is it safe to keep amex linked with paypal with all the fraud cases i have been reading in this thread

I am unable to make online transaction via paypal. I called the CS and they have unlock the payment with the merchant and that it will take 10 mins . Its been 30 mins and my transaction still couldnt get through.

INB4 i have already enable the msos previously and was able to make online overseas transaction not using paypal.

Updated:

Managed to get through after the 2nd call to CS. I also enquire do i need to call everytime for this particular merchant or is this transaction only allowed for 1 hour and then another transaction would require another call ? They said that the merchant has been unlocked for you forever.

Still the transaction went at 10.38 fingers crossed hope i could still get the cashback for the contest , not the weekend cashback.

I linked my amex with paypal but upon check out there is no Conversion Method that is usually there with Visa and Mastercard . I want to change it to billed in sellers currency instead of using PayPals rate. Is it disabled for amex ?

Not trying to purchase stuff in RM via PayPal. Its in a foreign currency.

Usually if its Visa/Master there is an option in PayPal where you can select the conversion method whether you would like to use paypal or your credit card option "bill me instead"

But with amex the option is not there thus making it even more expensive
