How Long Until Payment Is Reflected In Open Limit? - Bill Me Later

[shane82388]

I made a payment about 4 days ago, it briefly reflected it on billmelater.com and now its gone back to the balance previous to that payment...the money has been taken out of my checking account a few days ago...any idea how long this will take to show up or whats going on?

Anyone else have this problem?

Hmmm, I haven't had that happen with payments on CC, but every so often on my credit cards a purchase or debits/credits on bank accounts would be pending, disappear completely, and not reappear until a day or two later on it's posting date. Why it does it, who knows! Give it another day or two

Ehhh....its still not showing up...I sent them a message but havent gotten a response back.

Anyone else had this happen?

thanks

Does your checking account say pending for the transaction? Giving them a phone call may be a faster solution.

I would definitely give them a call.....I have a bill me later and my payment always shows up whether it is pending or posted. Keep us posted

I finally got a response back from billmelater.com and it says: 

We have received your inquiry regarding your Bill Me Later account.  We appreciate this opportunity to serve you.

Your payment of $159.99 made on 12/06/12 has been applied to the balance on your account but it is not yet reflected in your available credit. It can take up to seven days from the day your payment clears for it to apply to the available credit. Please monitor your account online.

I really hope this is not the case for the long run...waiting around for limit to clear up just to buy more things is kind of annoying to be honest...that or i just need a bigger limit! ;-)
