    Hey All,

    Want to purchase from evga.com.
    I have the address setup with An Post's Address Pal.

    The issue I am encountering is that it won't accept Revoult.
    If I try to pay via Paypal - it states the following -


    NOTICE: When checking out using PayPal, your verified PayPal shipping address will be used instead of your EVGA shipping address. Please confirm that this address on your PayPal account is up to date before completing checkout.


    It declines REVOLUT as no associated US Address.

    Does anyone have any ideas or has anyone had the same issue and found a way to resolve it ??

    Thanks

    Just add your AddressPal address to Paypal, and set it as the default shipping address for this transaction?

    That won't work. I had a similar problem before. The card has to a US encoded card with a US billing address. There's no way around it.

    I think there's a site where you can buy a prepaid card with a US billing address but it's quite expensive IIRC.

    Hi, yes that is the issue - it will only accept US encoded card with a US billing address.
    As far as I can see, there is literally no work around and thus why I posted this thread...

    You can't do that anymore. Paypal will only default now to Irish Addresses.
    If you try and setup a NEW US Paypal account using a VPN, you can't as it now requires authentication from a US Mobile number.
    Even when you start the process of signing up - it looks for your US Mobile number to Verify the account by sending you a code.
