Halifax - Direct Debit and eCheque for Fees the same?
 

So I calculated my fees wrong and left 40 pence short in my account for fees, i was meant to check paypal as it was fee day but forgot to do this :doh:

So the same thing happened last October and it was fine, fees came out as a direct debit though. This time as funds werent in my babnk account its now coming out as an eCheque which is due to clear on the 7th.

So c'mon guys and girls... Am I best trying to cancel the echeque or should i just make sure the funds are in the bank and let it roll... I really dont want to lose another account, even if it is my stupid fault! :violin:

Its cool just make sure the money is in the account, making payments with your bank wont flag you.

The Echeque wont link any address

Its the name I was worried about.... Would it miss match my real name and my stealth name?

Chances are it will fail to clear

When it does pay your fees with your eBay balance and a vCC to top anything your missing up

Its also possible that PayPal will remove you bank account. You would just need to phone them to get it added again (it cannot be added again online)

yes, if you keep getting paypal to request money from your bank account and they happen to do a manual review on your account then yes they will see the names dont match what is on your paypal account.

ok so theres money in the bank and money in paypal to cover it now... It was 40p short :doh:

Will just see what happens... Ive only had it come from my bank once before which was november last year, so this isnt a regular thing. Hopefully ill go undetected and be able to carry on as normal.

Is there anyway i can pay the fees with my pp balance now, theres no option to do it through ebay as its acting like they have already been collected.

Yes there is but it wont stop the echeque.
