Is it REALLY necessary to have such aggressive invoicing?

I've been with ebid for some time now, and have recently noticed a change in invoice notification which I find both offensive and unnecessary. Having signed on this morning I set to re-listing a batch of unsold items , which I tried to set to come on between 12 & 1pm (when I reasoned more people would be viewing ) . I sucessfully listed several items when - BANG- a red 'overdue ' notice appeared . This effectively meant I had to stop listing , sign into paypal and pay before I could continue. I wouldn't mind if I had had ANY notification prior to the 'overdue' notice! I have always paid my invoices promptly,and the amount involved (45p) was hardly going to cause ebid's immediate collapse into anarchy! Is it not possible to send a reminder to our messages 'requiring action section' rather than closing everything down ? Or at least, if you have to close it down for instant payment, can you not do it when we first sign in ?

Does seem over the top specially when you are saving them money by not paying a small ammount but letting it carry over.

Seems a bit odd. Invoices are created at the beginning of the month, so if you owed more than the minimum payment (40p I think) you should have been invoiced and notified then. If you owed less at the start of the month, and then went over during the month, an 'overdue' invoice should not have been created until the start of next month.

Before you get too flustered I would highly recommend emailing support@ebid.net and they will sort this out for you I'm sure.

Morning! I visited your listings to have a look-see but you do not offer to the USA. Perhaps your sales would see an increase if you did? I read your All About Me page....wonderful! God bless you for taking such good care of your Mum!
