Trouble buying Lindens

Is everyone having trouble buying Lindens through the website? I even tried to upgrade my account thinking that was the problem. I couldn't even upgrade my account.

I tried a credit card, a debit card, and paypal. None worked.

Help!

It's been going on for more than a week Andy. I have a support ticket open that still shows its in progress and yesterday on the Blog I read that they are still having problems, especially with Paypal transfers.

Thanks for your input. I guess I'll just hang tight.

i have the same problem. i still can't buy Linden Dollars with my credit card. i love shopping on second life but for the past week i haven't been able to buy things. When will this problem be fixed?i'm worried because i have to pay rent on some land and how will i do that if i can't buy Linden Dollars?
Is anyone at second life really trying to fix this problem and if they are really trying to fix it then why is it taking so long???
love from,

From the SL.com blog:

[Update 6.22.07 11.42 PDT] Purchases and payments with PayPal is still disabled. We are working closely with PayPal to identify and fix the problem. We know this is an inconvenience for many of you, and we ask your patience–this matter has our full attention.

[Update 12.25 PDT] We have temporarily disabled the ability to purchase or make payments with PayPal. You can still make purchases or payments via credit card or gift credit cards. We continue to investigate with PayPal to and we will update you as soon as the matter is resolved.

Thanks for your patience.

UPDATE:
We have reenabled Linden transactions from within the viewer.

However, PayPal is having issues processing LindeX transactions from the web. We are working with PayPal to resolve the issue.

Also, LindeX transactions using credit cards are slow, but the transactions should complete. If it doesn’t complete for some reason, please retry.

We apologize for the inconvenience, and hope to resolve these issues promptly.

Use the SL Exchange in the meantime...it involves an extra step or two, but they've gone through the risk API process and the exchange rate is usually a little better anyway.
