[Resolved]  HDFC Bank Bank Credit Card — Not allowing payment to PayPal since 1st of August , 2009

I had the same problem, which I did observe after August 20, 2009. When I contacted Paypal, they said, to check with the bank. I had searched in Google and understood that the reason is Verified by Visa enforcement by RBI. I had contacted HDFC Bank, they said, they were in the process of resolving the issue as they had already recieved huge number of compliants, but todate, it's not yet fixed and not all HDFC callcentre representatives know about paypal.com. Basically, they still think it as just another merchant website instead o[censored]nderstanding it's role as an international and multi-currency processing Online Payment Processor. This problem has to be solved quickly and awareness is created well in the form of better training to call centre representatives and bank officials as well so they will try to understand the actual problem of the customers instead of replying with something they understand with purely authentic information that can keep the confidence of the customer.

NOTE: I read in google which shows different websites discussing this same problem, I found this website while I am searching for any other possible solution that we may be availed to fulfill our online payments which are lagging behind in the schedule, thank you.

NOTE2: This is a quite positive input, we wholeheartedly expect this problem to be resolved as quick as possible, thank you

You are right.HDfC generous in sending generic mail and is not bothered about solving customers problem

HDFC sucks, I tried to contact them regarding the same issue, but nothing has been done yet. I am getting an AMEX card soon and will stop using HDFC from now because of its incompatibility with paypal.

Had the same problem...used hdfc netsafe vcc for paypal payment and it worked!!!

HDFC hasnt got a clue as to whats going on. They keep refusing to accept transactions from paypal. I used netsafe to make my first purchase it worked, but then paypal asked me to confirm my bank account ... thats fine too. now that the bank account is confirmed, paypal asked me to confirm my credit card... I used a netsafe card to make the payment that paypal had requested ... but now that paypal is supposed to make a deposit on the same credit card to verify it, I dont know how that's gonna work
sure HDFC sucks, but so does paypal. Any ideas if its the same with ICICI was thinking of changing my bank because of this issue not to mention that the shut early and have bad customer service too
