Delete the info altogether, then re-enter it.

I think this wil work:

Enter a credit card in SL. This will replace the paypal payments.

Remeve the credit card and it should be completely empty so that you can enter another paypal account.

It's a glitch. One of my alts only has the credit card option too and LL Support told me it needs a 'real' email address, as opposed to the free one I use for my main. They never explained why...I'm not sure they know why, just that it's worked in the past. I may just try setting up a separate free one for her and see if that works.

I am bumping you to an 8.5 on the Official Trout Measuring Instrument of Sluttiness. You are an enigma - on the one hand a sweet, gentle, intelligent woman who we would like to wrap up in our arms and protect, and on the other, a temptress to whom we would like to do all sorts of unmentionable things.

Congratulations and shame on you! You are a bit of a slut.

What's LL's definition of a "real" email addy? Is Yahoo (even though free) considered "real?" How weird...

No, it would have to be related to a paid service, like the account I have through my internet provider. They assigned me some random password when I signed up, but I never used it so I have no idea what it is at this point.

OK, here's the quote from my support ticket:

From: someone

You may need to change your email address from a public domain addy on your alt account. I know that the primary account has the (free email) account and was able to work, but you still should try using a non-public email addy to see if the paypal option shows up for you then.

I assumed the 'non-public email addy' referred to something like the one my ISP provides.

My OTHER alt has her own free email account and the PayPal option, though, so I'm wondering if it's actually the shared email account doing it.

Edit: Yup, I put her on her own (free) email account and the PayPal option magically appeared.
