    Ebay are aware of my concerns and have several chat transcripts to show it, but as of yet are not being particularly proactive in addressing them.

    Its free advertising for them too! There have been several other stories of things which reached silly figures of clearly non-serious bids, but I have never seen a follow up of 'ebay charged me 10% of the £1 million hoax bid' which might be reassuing.

    Don't trust a forum for advice. Get proper paid advice. Any advice given should always be checked

    It went global Wednesday - as the link below shows in an amusing and surreal way.

    Livechat transcripts will count for nothing if eBay take the fee before the credit is repaid.

    The minimum NPB is 6 full days. As has been said, you may get the invoice and be charged before the credit. Livechat won't change that.
