Cancelled SignUps at Paypal Cause 'Not Initiated' Basket

As mentioned in another post, I am getting a lot of not initiated baskets.

The Tax ID issue is part of it, but I have tested a transaction to paypal and then just stopped/closed the browser. This basket is showing as not initiated and has to be cancelled. This annoys the member and/or admin.

Can we get around this?

So they went to pay, got to PayPal, but didn't pay and just left? That's normal behavior then. The basket is exists with no payment information sent to it. It should expire based off your expiration parameters in CBSubs > Settings > Display > Baskets. There's nothing more we can do about this. We've no means of tracking their behavior once they leave the site. The default for an unpaid basket is to expire in 3 hours.

If I go to pay manually, as admin, I get the 'not initiated' status message in the basket!

If they pay by phone or bank transfer, we have to cancel the transaction and start again! This is a pain!

Pay manually as admin where? In backend? You should only be able to pay baskets from backend if they're marked Pending. Typically this is only done for baskets that confirmed through the Offline payment gateway.

They should be using the Offline payment gateway for that. No click PayPal and abandon it.
