Hi everyone,
I wanted to buy a flight ticket for the summer because it's getting sold out and more expensive every day ..
My paypal account is linked to my bank account but i don't; have money right now on my bank account.
My question is, if i now buy the flight ticket for 200$ through paypal and then try to take money from my bank after and won't find anything so they will make my paypal balance -200$, how long can i stay on negative balance before getting problems or before they send a debit collector?
I'm getting paid 26/5 whch is in 25 days, but there are only 4 tickets left now, will paypal wait 25 days for me to pay back 200$?
Thanks.
