Now 20 hours or so later still waiting.

So much for their "up and running in minutes" slogan.
Submit a ticket. It's always quicker to sign up for a Digital Ocean account using a credit card. Paypal accounts are subject to additional fraud checks - the same will happen with Vultr if you initially fund the account with Paypal.
