think i have put my best account at risk..
 

not sure how i ended up doing this. but on my best account with high limits thats just reached 1 year old last week, ive sent a refund to a buyer of £3 not realising my paypal account was at minus £30 due to someone opening a case for something high value 30 mins earlier.

its now gone through as an e-cheque and will be took from my bank within 5-7 days. i know paypal will now see my real name from my bank account but what will happen? ive always left enough in my accounts for fees and refunds but just shows even after a year of stealth its easy to make a mistake.

name on my ebay account matches my real name apart from ive shortened first name. so it kind of matches.

don't think i can cancel it now but would be greatful of any advice on what i should do. cheers

You are usually ok as long as a real person doesn't look at the account.

Best to not make it a habit though.

I've had a refund go through in this manner when I accidentally left not enough funds in my paypal. I was okay. Names were completely mismatched. I am extra careful that it doesn't happen again though.
