Why is my payment sent as an eCheque

[McNamarak]

I recently purchased something online from a seller I've bought from multiple times over the last couple of months and now for some reason the payment has gone through as an eCheque and I have to wait until 6th - 10th October for the payment to go through. I needed this item quite urgently and placed the order on the 1st - 10 days is a long time to wait for a payment I assumed would go through immediately?

Some reasons for an echeque >>

1. Recent failed bank transfer.

2. Recent negative paypal balance.

3. Suddenly buying a high cost item.

4. A card linked to your paypal account has expired and needs updating.
