A few days ago I tried to purchase an item that was a "buy in now" using my debit card which is in my PayPal wallet. I had done this exact same thing just a few days before but to pay for an item won in an auction without any problems.
I was prompted to authorise the transaction by my bank which I did successfully and returned to PayPal but instead of the payment going through the little "loading circle" just kept spinning. There is nothing wrong with either my debit card or my PayPal account and my PayPal account is only ever used to pay for items on Ebay and none have ever been high value. I attempted to do this four times with the same result.
I solved that one by asking my daughter to buy it for me BUT what I'm worried about is that I am currently watching an item that I want to bid on but if I win, I'm absolutely terrified that I will have the same issue and will not be able to pay for it as obviously I cannot ask my daughter to do it as its an auction.
Can anyone please tell me what the problem may have been because as much as I really want to win this item there is no way that I want to put the seller in the position of having a non payer even if it is through no fault of my own.
I'm sorry that this is long. Thank you.
