message from E Bay 'Check-out incomplete'

gillwilky — Wed, 18 Nov 2020 03:00:21 GMT

I have a message from E-Bay 'Check-out incomplete' which when opened asks me to complete my purchase.

I have contacted the seller to ask if they can throw light on the matter and whether they can resolve it, but anticipate that it may take a little while to receive a response as it is a Charity.

I am aware that clicking on a Buy It Now is a commitment to buy.

However, to the best of my knowledge I did not make an offer, nor click the buy it now on this item;but do remember looking at it on my mobile 'phone as I am contemplating listing some items and was researching what is happening on e-bay at the moment.

I cannot say on which particular day this was because I clear out my recently viewed items from time to time.

I have no unpaid items showing. No unpaid invoices showing.

I would be very grateful fro help from the community to help me understand what has happened here.

Thank-you in anticipation.

Gill

What has happened is that when browsing on your phone you have inadvertently clicked to buy it. This could have been due to a screen lag where you were looking at one screen but the touchscreen was still linked to another.

You need to ask the seller to cancel your order.

Thank you for this explanation. I will follow your recommendation and ask
seller to cancel order.

I am new to smart-phone and rarely use it for browsing...now will avoid it
like the plague.
