Paypal Developer - Cannot create Sandbox Business Account plus Error Messages

Question

I am trying to set up a Paypal Dev App by first creating the two (personal and business) Sandbox Accounts. However it only displays the -facilitator.. business account with the following error message when I click on its Profile

We experienced some issues on our end while creating this Sandbox account. Please delete it and try again.

Unfortunately the check-box next to the account is grayed out and I cannot delete it. When I go to create an APP it says:

There are no sandbox business accounts associated, please create one and try again.

So I have also tried creating NEW Sandbox business accounts. When I click save I see that it has updated the Total Records by one, but it still shows the same amount of accounts (the facilitator and any personal accounts I created).

Anyone have any idea on what I can/should do? Can I re-create the whole developer account somehow?

Answer 1

I got this randomly all weekend and never really figured out what caused it... It did work for me though when I went back to it a day or two later.

gave me a really weird feeling about using paypal at all to be honest. good luck.

Answer 2

Exactly the same for me since 3 days. Getting pretty nuts about it. Yesterday the problem was different an error message was displaying on the page as : We’re sorry, but something went wrong. Please try again.

Today when I logged in I found all the test account that I have created yesterday but with no money on the account. So I have deleted them and when I recreate I get the same behavior mentionned above.

This is the notification for the first issue, didnt' find new one but guess they are working on it.
