The main reason I can't access it is probably because I am somehow blocked on my PC I can use and log into paypal but only with a proxy or on my phone using my internet's wi fi

You can check the connection settings.

If you do not need to use a proxy to connect to internet then try to select "No Proxy" if "Use the system proxy settings" or one of the others do not work properly.

See "Firefox connection settings":
