Payment with an inactive Bank Account

[RiansyahDE]

I just did a transaction with Paypal to buy some shares on eToro, but I just noticed that the payment was paid by my old bank account (Postbank Germany) which is inactive (the Bank account is already inactive for months and no more funds there). what should I do now? will Paypal bill me again with extra cost?

Hello @RiansyahDE,

Welcome to the PayPal Community! Sorry to hear you're running into some issues with a recent payment. If PayPal is unsuccessful in capturing the funds from your bank on the first attempt, a second attempt will be made within 3 business days, at which time a notification will be sent to you via email. If the second attempt to be paid from your bank is unsuccessful, we’ll notify you again by email that the request was denied. At that time, the balance of your PayPal account will be debited. If there isn’t enough money in your PayPal balance, your PayPal account will be taken negative. 

As PayPal does not charge any non-sufficient fund fees, you should not experience any extra costs billed by PayPal.

I hope this helps!
