You must have inadvertantly signed up for a paypal account at some point in the past. So once you did that, and you entered a username (which is an email address) and stored a credit card with that username, paypal will not let you use the credit card again with another email address. Its part of their security process.

 

You should talk to paypal if you can't remember your username/password. Go to paypal website for details. BBO cannot help you with that. www.paypal.com

 

So basically once you've signed up for a paypal username and entered cc information, all you need to do is to enter your registered email and password again to login to paypal to purchase BBO$.

 

If you cannot remember your paypal username/password, and you don't wish to look at paypal website's FAQ, then you need to pretend that you're not a paypal member, and give another credit card to purchase BBO$. ie, when asked whether you are a paypal member, say No.

additionally: you dont need to create a paypal acct in order to purchase BB$

 

When purchasing bb$, you are asked "do you have a paypal account?"

If you say NO, you are prompted to enter the credit card details, and thats the end of it.
