Has anybody used the "Bill Me Later" function on SchmeEbay??? Does anybody know how it works? Do they send you a physical card, or is it just a digital account? They approved me for $801.
![]() I'm buying a larger item for a christmas gift, and they are offering no interest and no payments for 6 months. And $10 back. ![]() ![]()

No interest? Riiiiiiiiiggggght. Why would they keep pitching it to me every singe day if there was no profit on their part.

cuz most people don't payoff the 0% in 6 mos, and then the XX% interest applies to the item for the 6 mos. prior.
looks like an ebay CC to me

I don't know anything about the option but this seems like the most logical answer. (Did I just quote Ed and then use the word "logical"?) ![]()

Read the hell out of the terms and conditions to make sure there isn't anything to bite you. Off the top of my head I can think of fees over the life of the account (not just the loan), the account is difficult to cancel, the credit provider has a terrible history of customer service, etc. I wouldn't trust some random loan provider, particularly if I needed good credit for anything in the near future.

I do work for eBay/PayPal, but I will not pretend to understand our products because that's not my job. But BML is a subsidiary of PayPal and the financing goes through PP. I have no idea if there are hidden fees, but BML is a growing part of our business now and I'm pretty sure it just works like a CC.
And, just like every other credit card, they make their money off people not paying their balance in full within 6 months. |

Ebay recently got OWNED by a $30 million class-action lawsuit. I got a $37 check in the mail.
