That's no problem Mike.
Thank you all for the best wishes.
An idea both John and I got about the same time, and which Dinesh has now approved:
It seems PayPal payments for private persons in India are now if not impossible, at least very difficult from most part of the world. Because of that, here's the new site for donations for Dinesh and Kavita's wedding costs and present: Wedding present for Dinesh & Kavita by Kari - GoFundMe
My contact information as well as other information can be found on that site.

Very good. That uses dollars and he already has a Euro so that should cover most of us.
Mike
Yeah. And it really seems PayPal has a new policy due to regulations from Central Bank of India; I got that error message even when trying to donate €20, which I tried when it did not accept a bit bigger donations.
Dinesh is one of those guys who makes the Seven Forums what it is and I am going to do everything in my power he gets the wedding he deserves. I'm lucky and happy to hear that the families finally agreed, and that I know I can call him a friend.

It didn't give a specific error. See below.
Paypal didn't have a specific reason.
I'll give them a try tomorrow and Paypal again if necessary.

I haven't been using my PayPal account in almost two years; in fact my last use of PayPal was to donate a few bucks to Seven Forums back in 2009 when the supporter badge still had to be "paid for"
I did not log in to PayPal when creating that donation site, I just entered my PayPal credentials which I had to check first from my old password app backup. It worked, so I thought everything was OK. And it should be OK; I just logged in first time since summer of 2009 and checked, the account is active and verified (Status: Verifiziert, as it's in German) meaning that the old ID / bank account verification should still be valid.
I'm going to call them tomorrow.

Posted a snip above.
Logged into Paypal and made sure my card was current- the 2011 exp. which it is.
I'm fed up now, it's past 3 AM here. I'm going to call PayPal tomorrow and check this out. I have a Premium account, which is verified, so I can not understand .
Found these little bits of information, confirming that Dinesh might not be able to collect the money himself, and that I here in Germany should be able to that:

Until tomorrow.
