Still haven't found it.

I don't want them to automatically charge my debit anymore. :( It's too annoying.

ack! I have that problem too. Ebay took out the payment when I had no money in my account. My ebay dues were like $12 and the overdraft cost me $25! :Q:|

Same exact thing happened to me, only it was only 6 bucks, and my overdraft fee was 32$ + 5$/day for the 3 days that I didn't get my balance back up to 0. :disgust::frown:

Try and give the bank a call and give them a sob story. I had to get in touch with the VP of the bank and give him a sob story on his voicemail about how I need the money back (I had 4 overdrafts = $25 each = $100 :Q). He gave me a call back tonight when I wasn't home so now I need to give him a call tomorrow.
I've heard of this working before from other people. Wouldn't hurt to try.

I'd still like to avoid it all together and just pay off the Ebay fee when I see fit though.

Usually if you are first time (or maybe second time) check bouncing offenders and have a good sob story your bank might waive your NSF fees.

Well, this is my second time. The first time was a huge mistake because I deposited the check that night, but it didn't go into the system until the next day. I didn't ask to get that one waived since I didn't know I could.

I gave him a sob story about how I need that $100 for gas money to get to and from school, which is true. When I call him up tomorrow and if he isn't going to give me the $100 back initially, I'm going to tell him to look at my bank account where I only have $55 to my name :(

I hate being poor :(

Alright, figured out how to do it.

Go to Ebay homepage.

Click on My Ebay

Sign-in if needed

Click on "Accounts" tab

You should see something like "My eBay Seller Account" Account balance: -US $1.65 * As of Sep-09-02 21:08:53 PDT

Right below that is a link that says "View/update automatic payment option"

Click that link

Sign-in if needed

The page you see next should be self explainitory. Allows you to pay by credit card, make a one-time payment, etc. Wish I would have found this a couple days ago :(

Okay, I'm there.. What do I click on now? Update info?

Or the "If you wish to pay with a Credit/Debit card, click here" link?


Okay, I did the update info thing.. didn't click "use this card to pay".. and it said the card will not be billed, however.. when I go to account status, it says...

Payment Type: eBay Direct Pay

:(

If you want Ebay to charge a credit card/debit card with the Ebay fees you owe every month then click on "If you wish to pay with a Credit/Debit card, click here" link.

If you wish to pay just what you owe right now, but never have Ebay charge that credit card again automatically, then click "make a one-time payment" link.
