Well you guys are lucky, at least you where given the link to have the option to change funding. I have been using paypal for years and have always had an issue with not being able to have my credit card as the default funding option. Well a few days ago a made a couple of hundred dollar purchase on ebay that required instant payment, when I reviewed the first page that came up I was unable to locate the "super secret change your funding and we'll still try to talk you out of it link" and believe me I have been doing this long enough to know where and what to look for, so I figured it was on the next page as the only other option was to hit the gold button that said "continue with paypal" well sure enough that completed the transaction, no other page to review or change funding options and the money was drawn from my checking account. So I called paypal and spoke to the representative, she looked into it and said it was wrong and was a "SYSTEM ISSUE", but even though she admitted that it was their fault, the response was sorry Charlie, there isn't anything we can do about it. Of course my letters to paypal and ebay have been unanswered, they got their money so no need. Unfortunately many ebay sellers now require paypal so I am stuck, but you can believe from here on out I will make damm sure I have a paypal rep on the phone talking me through the transaction each and every time.
