The only time that has happened to me is when I had a positive balance in my Paypal account. They will always take that money first before allowing me to charge or change payment methods. I over pay my Paypal bill to make sure I pay no interest, so this has happened to me a few times.
You may have a positive balance if you've returned an item and received credit for it already too.

Is that why PayPal didn't give me any option to change payment method? My PayPal default is bank, but I usually like to change that to a credit card option to give me added protection.
Just wondering........ I will have to think twice about buying off eBay now, as I don't like this.
