Top cashback/eBay /pay PayPal account
02GF74 - 22/8/18 at 08:20 AM

I have 2 PayPal accounts, different emails, one for selling linked to bank account to easily receive money and other for buying linked to a credit card.

When I buy items on ebay, I go through topcashback. When it come to paying via PayPal, the account for selling comes up as default. Even when I change it to the buying account and log in , the money still comes out of the selling I. E. Bank account.

Anyone come across this problem and know how to resolve it?

My wife and I have separate Paypal accounts that got similarly 'linked', presumably due to them being on the same postal address. I had to close my account and reopen it with the same details to break the connection.

ok - think may have sorted it; each time I came to pay it was showing me the wrong account (i.e. the one I did not want to use for payment); so I would go and select the other account.

There was a prompt to say "remember me", which I selected today - and it now when making a payment it uses the right account.


Need to t ry it from topcashback page but it'll probably work.
