eBay error while paying

cloventoken — Thu, 21 Nov 2024 17:22:20 GMT

Hi, I bought a camera on ebay and used Pay in 4 on PayPal, when I clicked to complete my payment it loads and suddenly there's an error on eBay. PayPal already deducted the amount in my bank account but on eBay the camera that I purchased is not in my purchased tab. When I check on my PayPal I saw the transaction there but its pending and theres a quote saying "This is a temporary authorisation to make sure your payment method can cover the payment. Your payment method will be charged when Pay in 4 completes your order." What should I do? should I just wait and see if my payment will go thru or it will refund me automatically? Thanks

I think you need to check your PayPal account

This def sounds like something to do with paypal. I agree with the other user who commented

I had the same problem happen to me a few days ago, i spoke to paypal and they said if the process doesn't finalise you'll automatically get refunded, because i spoke to them on chat i think they made the process happen faster.

What happened to you, that it says you didn't pay for the item, it won't do through and your order won't be completed, and paypal blame it on a glitch with the seller's website, i would like to know who's fault it really is, i tried to pay for more than one auction using pay in 4, and i had the exact same problem that it took my money and didn't finish the transaction, and had to speak to someone on paypal chat messages to reverse it.

They told me to clear my cookies and cache, etc... and that didn't help, i even tried using two different browsers, be warned if want to pay with pay in 4, it might not work.

I wasted too much time, don't even try if your not prepared for the risk.
