paying ebay fees using debit card and not cc?

[casual92king]

hello, is it possible to link my debit card to the ebay fee system so that the funds are taken straight from my bank and not through paypal? or do i need an actual cc to do that? would it be troublesome in the future if i can and do do it? thanks guys

you can link cc, debit card or vcc...

a prepaid vcc, stops them taking the kitchen sink in case of dispute or account shutdown.......

DONT DONT DONT give ebay access to a bank account for fees. ebay touches your money too easily then. We have had a few discussions about this subject. LOL. I use vcc to protect myself

I know to my cost, I was changing my vcc due to expiry, and was thinking of using a different card but thought it wasnt that important as I had a good paypal balance that would cover any fees and I could take my time and attached it to my bank in the meantime (correct name so that part was ok), then I had a fees dispute where they made a horrendous mistake and charged about x 10 more than should have. I hurriedly had to unattach bank - I was lucky that time, as it got sorted and I was ahead of them, but if I hadnt noticed they would have withdrawn the fees from my bank...

I wont do that again

thanks for that info.. i have stumbled across this pre paid money card with o2 and was wondering whether you think it is possible to put this on ebay fees.? - Cash Manager - O2 Money - that is the website.. it is free for o2 customers and i am on o2 so i was thinking of getting more sim cards from them and getting an o2 cash manager card for each ebay/paypal account in different identities etc.. do you think this is a good idea and will it work? thanks for your help

Sounds like a good plan.... but you can only have one card registered in your name/address and you have to top up at least £10 every 3 months....

I Recommend Entropay if you want multiple cards.
