I have a premier account with paypal so the help section says i can add another ebay id to the paypal account i alraedy have; trouble is, how on earth do i do that? thru ebay? or thru paypal? theres no explanation!

isnt it something to do with adding another email addy?
I think you have to use a different one for each ebay id so Im guessing thats the bit you add to paypal

JPS

To add a 2nd ebay ID to your Paypal account, go to:

profile ---> auctions (under selling preferences) ---> Click add and follow it until your 2nd ID is set up to use your paypal account.

JPS?

Does that count for buyers too because Paypal rejected a transaction from me (my fault btw for paying too quickly for BIN's) and I wanted to add another card to pay. I mailed them and got one reply that didn't apply, so mailed again and heard nothing

So I've stopped shopping

That's not such a bad thing; it's given me time to see what sells and what doesn't, but I've found out what sells and can't source it *groan*

Hi SS

No no this is just for sellers adding a 2nd eBay account to their current Paypal account. If you want to add a 2nd credit/debit card to your account to pay for stuff, go to:

profile ---> credit cards (under Financial Information) --->click add and follow instructions. You can then choose to make it your primary account if you choose.

Now why couldn't paypal tell me that? Or ebay? Or anyone else

Thanks very much for that. I'm hoping I don't need the info, but it's embarrassing when you go for a BIN that's less than 20 quid and it's thrown out lol. Luckily I got a lovely seller that understood why I had to send a cheque instead.

Thanks again
