Just got this email.
"Thank you for being a part of our limited-time Buy Now Pay Later holiday promotion. We're so happy you've been able to take advantage of it. You've reached the limit on this offer given our new terms, which can be found here."
The link was to the terms which had been updated:
"How it Works: The Offer allows Eligible Participants to earn PayPal Rewards Points ("Points") equivalent to 20% cash back on one Eligible Purchase during the Offer Period up to $1,250 spent"
I don't recall the "one eligible purchase" being there before and I looked pretty hard when the promo hit.
Bucks because my first purchase was small and I was planning on several more high dollar purchases

So now my points pending from the two transactions on the 27th are going to be taken from me?

From what I can tell I did not receive the email (maybe missed in spam?).
But in the PayPal App, the offer appears to still be active even though I used it once already.

I did note that it did not deduct from my current Paypal balance, and is instead using the card I have on file with them (my debit card for checking account), but I think it'll use any CC so you have on file. Could get CC points on top of the cash back.
anyone know how to bypass this error?
