On 12/26 I bought several hundred dollars worth of items from Ebay from different sellers in one order. I received duplicate emails from PayPal a few minutes apart telling me that the sales were completed. But after I sent in that order, I got an email from Ebay which said "Action required: Your payment needs to be resent" with a list of the items from my order, and the words "Sorry, your recent PayPal payment did not go through." There were a few Ebay glitches which didn't let me resend the order to Ebay all at once, so it had to be resent in 2 separate orders, and I received 2 more emails from PayPal telling me that the sales were completed. On 12/27 I bought a few more items, and again I received duplicate emails with the same sellers, products, and costs listed more than once and marked "Completed." But again, I received another email from Ebay which said "Action required: Your payment needs to be resent" with the same list of products and the words "Sorry, your recent PayPal payment did not go through," exactly the same as I had experienced with my order the day before. So once again, I resent the order. When I received my statement ending on 1/17/18 I discovered one credit for each item that I ordered on 12/26 and 12/27. But on the Purchases and Adjustments section of the same statement, each seller from 12/26 and 12/27 was listed twice along with the cost of each item twice. Online each seller, product, and cost was listed so many times in different places that I couldn't figure it out because the names and costs were not together, but were scattered. Yet I could identify many repetitions. I called PayPal about this issue and was told that it would all be straightened out as my payments were made. Even though my payment for the January statement wasn't due until 2/14/18, I paid the charges for "Amount to Avoid Standard and Deferred Interest" and all charges for the posting dates before 12/26, even though many deferred payment dates were months away. I paid them early on 1/21/18, hoping that the duplicate charges would be erased on my PayPal page online. But those duplicate charges remained and were still there when I received my statement dated 2/17/18. I had no intention of paying anyone twice for receiving one product, so I added up the total for "Amount to Avoid Standard and Deferred Interest" and then I paid each seller once for the products that I purchased on 12/26 and 12/27 ~~ which means that I paid everything that was on the deferred list through 7/14/18. And I made that payment on 2/23/18, even though the payment wasn't due until 3/14/18. Nevertheless, now when I look on my PayPal page online, I still see sellers listed once or twice who were the sellers from 12/26 and 12/27, but some have been removed, and therefore appear to have been paid twice because of the way that they are listed on my most recent statement. When I look on my recent statement, I can see that my recent payment may have been paid to several sellers twice and other sellers once ~~ and other sellers from that group not at all! My understanding is that according to my PayPal page online, I still owe some of those people another payment, and other people I still owe two payments, yet others have already been paid twice. I've been trying so hard to get all of those people paid once ~~ and only once! The way that names and prices are listed on the statements are very confusing, because the list is so long and the same sellers, products, and costs are not together, but are scattered, so they are difficult to pick out and identify. What can I do to get this fixed? I should not have to continue paying a double cost for each item that I purchased in December, but it appears that's exactly what I have been expected to do!
