ebay asked me to verify bank details...

Ebay sent 2 small amounts of money to my bank account, then I had to confirm what these amounts were. They said I had to do this in order to continue buying, as I had "reached my limit". There is no credit, so why have a limit? Anyway since doing this, they now take the money directly from my bank account. I have always used my pre payment credit card for purchasing on ebay, this way I can only spend what I have put on the card, and no on else knows how much I'm spending. Both card details are registered with them, but I cannot use the prefered card any more. This will stop me from buying on ebay. Is there anything I can do?

I had already verified, but had one more step to do, which I hadn't realised. All sorted now, you're a star. Thanks again.0
