Thanks for the replying but I do not think that is the case for this. I do not have any automatic payment setting defined per vendor. This was not a reoccuring payment, It was one time transaction. I only have one automatic payment setting which is "for online purchases use the Amex card". It is visible under settings > payments > manage automatic payments, as prefered way of paying. I did not do the transaction myself, I give vendor my paypal to be charged, and they charged it online. So I am not sure, but I do not think vendor will be seeing or chosing where it is going to be charged at. therefore I think issue lies with PayPal, by all definitions this was online purchase, and I had Amex as my prefered method -which is valid active card so no chance of being declined but for some reason it did not go to that. and yes, technically I can ask vendor to cancel and redo, aside from being extremely inconvenient and it is not guaranteed that vendor will even agree, I don't see how this is vendor's problem. Also as long as reason is not clear, what is stopping from this happening again ? At least an explanation would have been nice.
