Moneybookers Fail

So I bought an Isaia SC a while back.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/27084808853...X:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649#ht_4752wt_1396

I go to pay thinking I would be using paypal, only to be directed to moneybookers. I was skeptical at first, but was reassured by seeing some senior member on here recommend them.


I entered my information, but used my shipping address as billing address (forgot to change it) I pressed submit, and I was told there was an error so it did not go through. I realized my mistake, and went back to change billing address. I then submitted it again, and it went through.

I get an email confirming the payment went through.

I wake up this morning and check my account, they charged me twice! I contacted moneybookers, the seller, and my bank. Waiting to hear back from any of them (this was about an hour ago) I don't want to open a case on ebay yet, but will if I don't hear back from the seller within a day.

Anyway, I won't be using moneybookers ever again. For all it's faults, I feel safe with paypal.
