    Refund from terminated account.
                     

    Ebay terminated my account that i had just recently created and I had already bought an item that never arrived to me. I have contacted the seller from a second account i've created and they've stated that they issued an refund, but I don't see the refund. The issue is the terminated account is what i purchased the item under so how is it possible for me to receive a refund or be sure they can still send the refund? I can't call an ebay rep as i live outside of the US and trying to reach by chat is tedious. How do i resolve this issue?

    Refunds are credited to the original payment source.  Did you get confirmation from ebay that a refund was made?  If not, it wasn't.  If so, and you used a credit/debit card it can take additional days/weeks depending on your card companies processing time.

    How would i get the confirmation? Ebay terminated my original account that i purchase the item under. I only have the word of the vendor the money was returned, but it was 4 business days ago. I assume it would at least show on paypal since i purchased the item through that payment source.

    Hi @abcool 

     

    The refund would have been returned to your original payment source ... like a credit or debit card ... which doesn't require an eBay account in order to access it.  Have you checked with your card company to see if it is pending?

    I paid using paypal, but when i check my paypal account, I don't see where it was issued. I was told to wait 3 business days, but i would assume paypal would show the refund first and then it would show up on my bank account later. I will call my bank tomorrow to see if anything came through.
