Guest checkout option?

I'm trying to place an order but it seems the Paypal guest checkout option has disappeared. I'm unable to create an account for various reasons - is there any way around this?

+1 please fix this if possible. I don't wish to be forced into PayPal

This is a paypal issue. In development sandbox looks perfect, all the settings at paypal are correct, and I've written them a dozen times in the past two years and paypal does nothing. We're going to move to braintree through and that has many many more payment options than just paypal alone.

Just coming back on this, I found the Guest Checkout option *was* available going through the 'new' site. At the time I was placing the order I couldn't work out how to get the new site to accept my gerbers, I since worked out that a naming convention had been imposed.

You probably already know this but I did a bit of googling and apparently there is a setting in the Paypal account which makes the guest checkout disappear, however I sort of assume you use the same one for both so that may not be the case...
