I verified my checking account (after waiting 2 days for the 2 deposits to be made) . I also made it my primary account . After I did this , I made a payment using paypal for an item I bought on ebay . My problem is that paypal did not make this new account my primary account until 2 days later and instead used my old checking account for payment . This cost me $40 in overdraft fees . I had a credit card listed as a back up method , but this wasn't used . I called customer service about it and talked to 3 different people who all told me that it should have been done in real time , but all told me that I had done it 2 days later (around 9:30PM on xmas eve while I was wrapping presents) . They refused to help me saying that if there was a problem with their system , then someone else would have had the same problem . Now I am out $40 and an hour of my time ! I would never have used this account that did not have $$$ in it , I would have used the credit card first and paid it when it came in ..
