Can you switch from echeck to instant payment?

Question

Is there a way that I can change from echeck to instant payment on something that I already confirmed payment for (from ebay)? I would like to get my item as soon as possible, and I didn't know about echeck because I haven't used paypal in a while. Am I stuck with echeck since I already confirmed the payment, or can I still change it?

Answer 1

Instant Echeck

Answer 2

You are pretty much stuck letting it process as an eCheck.



In the future IF your PayPal account is backed up by a CC or checking account

and you have you any balance in your PayPal account (even $0.01) and you

choose "instant payment" it will go through that way and "instant transfer" the

balance of the transaction ammount...



This is a handy thing to know...



And explains why you should always keep SOME small balance in your PayPal account

Answer 3

A new debit card takes a couple of days to register If you already had one registered it may be you was issued with a new card recently and the expire date changed. eCheque takes a week to clear. tell the seller you have payment issues and do they mind waiting.

Answer 4

The usual reason for an echeque being issued is because your card is out of date, so get the seller to refund the echeque- update and repay, this will be instant
