"she mentioned to me that when eBay and PayPal seperated as company's ( computer system wise 3-5-2016) they found a glitch in the system, this happened when two or more gift cards where made to make a order, if refunded the system didn't know which gift card to put the money back to." Absolutely not true. I used one card for one purchase and the refund never posted either. They looked into it and looked into it and still have no explanation where it went. PayPal used to post refunds directly back to the eBay giftcard # (it's on the transaction record) as 'PayPal Giftcard Services'. These never had a problem. Somehow that changed in April and they now use a 16-digit bogus 'voucher code' under 'eBay Giftcard Services' which most of the time get refunded back to the original giftcard but sometimes doesn't and they have no clue where it went. Imagine how much money eBay is making from this. ... View more
