Ebay automatically paid my winning item without my permission?

[mybabylily]

this never has happened to me before and I didn’t not get any notice in email nor did I ever signed up or agreed to have automatic payment option on buying.

When I buy or bid and win an item, I always get an email from ebay saying I won or please pay for your item within 3 days so on….and I always click and pay within an hour for all of my purchases on ebay but this happened last night.

I bid on items…3 gemstones before I went to bed….I guess I won all 3 stones…

I wake up and check my emails and I got 3 email notice from ebay …

purchased….

So I went on my ebay account and saw, “we made automatic payment for your purchase ending #### 

ebay made a payment for my winning…and I try everything and look for everywhere to stop this but none.

I do not want ebay to make automatic payment on my behalf without my permission.

again, there was no notice or email about this nor I click Yes on auto pay…none.

I am calling ebay after the holiday but to see anyone had this experience and if YES please is there to stop this?

thank you and you all have a wonderful Christmas 😊

This just happened to me and I couldn't find the solution in this thread.   

Any ideas?

I won an auction and did not pay because I am bidding on a 2nd auction of the same seller.

Today I won the 2nd auction and got a paypal notice that it was auto-paid. WHAT ?  

The first auction is still unpaid:  https://www.ebay.com/itm/195843716804

Second auction was autopaid:  https://www.ebay.com/itm/195853419236

Both were auctions, not buy-it-nows.

My preferred payment is paypal, but I have always gotten the email reminder to pay, never an auto pay.
