new payment system?

[davidc4430]

won an item today and pressed the 'pay now' button.

no shift to the various pages, before going to PP sign in.

no log into PP.

just clicked on make payment button and went to the thanks for your payment page.

is this new, so used to going through several pages before loging into PP to make payment befor being returned to ebay.

Yep, it's new.

I just did my first one 5 mins ago.

I like it, the new look is simple and easy to read.

I guess the assumption is you are already signed into eBay and perhaps it will only work direct with a purchase in case an eBay account is hacked.

That happened to me.  I thought I had clicked auto payment box somewhere.

Not likely though.  I don't need people having direct access to my paypal

I actually wanted to change accounts, but I didn't have a choice

Shouldn't be happening.

well as long as its not just me. i thought ebay and PP were now seperate entities, doesnt this sort of make it more like they are back in bed together?

I don't like it at all.

It is far too easy to miss the Paypal button and start filling in the CC/Debit card numbers....I fear we will see a lot of Guest payments being made by inexperienced buyers.

Stawks, when you hit the paypal button the option to change funding sources is there squeezed up in the right hand corner.....VERY easy to miss IMO.

Lyndal, there was no paypal button.

1.   Buy it now - click

2.   Commit to buy - click

3.    Pay now - click    -  this is where the paypal bit should come up on a new page

                                       allowing me to sign in and change accounts....nope

4.   Thank you for your purchase                What the???

Well that sounds crud

I mentioned this a little while ago - it's the mobile version of the checkout. I hate it, and refuse to buy anything as long as eBay insist on foisting it on me.

Stawks, have a very close look the next time it comes up....the paypal option is squeezed right up at the top of the page....too easy to miss IMO.

usually you get a review page when you click on a make payment button, just so you can see the whole order before going on to make payment.

looks like ebay has decided to remove that from the process.

and now you dont even have to log into PP to make a payment to ebay.

might be hearing more complaints on this latest 'tweek'
