Anyone here used Paypal to pay for a Argos order?

I payed for an order I made this morning, to be delivered tomorrow, but the payment is being shown as pending..

And it being a £127 order, I am obviously worried about it.

Happened to anyone else? Or am I fooked?


Cheers

General Gassing - I assume it was a car part you purchased?

Log into your paypal account and take a look. It will tell why its pending.

If it's still pending then it could be that the item is out of stock?

Did you buy via Argos website or Argos on eBay?

I thought that, but I can make other payments?

I paid for an item through PayPal the other day and the default setting was 'pay after delivery'. Have a look here: https://www.paypal.com/us/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=xpt/M...

Are you sure you haven't done this? I had to manually select 'Pay now' and then choose my payment option (Credit card, bank transfer etc)

Pretty sure it hasn't done that, as the funds have gone.

Now have a noble £9.37 in my account.

I will see if it comes tomorrow or not, if not I will give them a call.

Cheers for the help! thumbup
