    How to use PayPal on Argos.co.uk?
    Hi, so I'm really confused about this.
    Apparently Argos do accept PayPal as a payment method. I have various sources for this:
    https://www.paypal-shopping.co.uk/retailers/
    http://www.shopsthatusepaypal.co.uk/
    And even Argos' own website!!!
    http://www.argos.co.uk/static/Static...TheSite.htm#14

    But when I go to the checkout for payment methods, there is only a credit card payment method. I don't understand why? Have you guys ever used PayPal on Argos? I mean, they say they allow it, but... just how?

    Help appreciated!
    Thanks guys!

    I just had a quick run through and it does seem to be there... you need to go through the steps until you get to Step 3 - Payment Details. It's then towards the bottom.

    Check out my screenshot

    I'm abolutely sure I would have seen this when I was trying, nonetheless I just tried again now and that section with all the symbols of cards/payment methods simply does not show!
    But the rest does.

    Have you bought from Argos before or something.

    I am feeling very perplexed.

    No, I just made up a quick account and that's what it showed me. I'd recommend maybe trying in another web browser, see if you have any luck.

    Weird, that.

    Ah! Yes, it worked
    Should've known it'd be Opera's fault!

    Thanks!
