Oh, I figured it out. Took me a few hours and tons of research but.... BillMeLater is only offered on Buy it Now and SOME auctions on eBay. But there's no way of finding out what "random" auctions it's available on until you go to check out. What a scam! But at least I know now. ... View more

I just "assumed" that eBay accepted it because that's where I was offered BillMeLater. It was offered when I purchased items off eBay and therefore "assumed" it would work at eBay. Evidently, the stories about "assuming" things are correct. It DOES NOT work on every checkout at eBay. I am currently not happy with it. I guess I didn't do enough research before signing up. I sure wish I had found these postings before I had signed up for it. I am currently sitting as a winning bidder on eBay for auctions that I cannot pay for because BillMeLater is not a funding option on those certain auctions. Right now I feel that PayPal and BillMeLater are sneaky misleading companies. So sad. ... View more

Here I am.....short on cash for Christmas....Don't get paid for 2 weeks and thought I'd do a little shopping on eBay. Bought a few small items and PayPal has this "Great" offer pop up: Get BillMeLater!! So I thought, why not? I applied....got it! So now I'm thinking...Hey! I can get a few things for Christmas...order them on time to get here....then pay it off in 2 weeks when I get paid! Win-win situation! NOT!!!!! What Paypal DOES NOT tell you is that not EVERYONE accepts BillMeLater EVEN if they DO take PayPal....so now I have all these auctions that I have won and can't pay for them because they don't take BillMeLater yet they DO take PayPal. INCREDIBLE!! Thanks PayPal and BillMeLater for really **bleep**ing me up! Now I have to figure out how to pay for these auctions before I get negative feedback. GEEEZ! (I was able to pay for 4 of them using BillMeLater but the rest don't accept it....just GREAT!) UHG!! ... View more
