Payments

I have just recently received paypal money from appnana, i have 10 dollars us on my paypal but no bank on my paypal because i am not with any bank. i tried purchasing a item that was 18.95 and i used a 15 dollar coupon to lower it to 3.50 i think, when i tried purchasing it said i had insufficient funds and i need to add a credit card to my account, shouldn't i be able to pay for it without a credit card on my account? and wouldn't my coupon make it so i have enough money to purchase it?

The credit cards demand is basically an identification thing. They are using your ability to qualify for a card as a rough and ready way of confirming your identity and credit-worthiness.

There may also be a question of currencies. At the moment $10 US will buy you about $11 Canadian. And $10 Canadian will buy you $9 US. (very approximate and changing by the minute).

Are the coupon and the PP balance both in either /or US dollars? If they differ there could be problems.
