New Email Address with Paypal - now what?

Hopefully someone will know what I need to do with this! I changed my email address on my paypal account last night as the previous one was my work email and I've changed it to my personal email. Everything fine, I can log in with new email address, happy days.

But I have listings on eBay that end in 3-4 days time and the paypal option on them asks to pay my old email address. I can't change it when I try and revise the item. What happens now? Will I get the payment? Will their payment get rejected? Thanks for your help.

add the old email address to your paypal account as well I think?

ah ok - i've just looked at my paypal account and the old address is there as another email address - it's just not my primary email address. Does that mean payments to that email address will still reach me?

Thanks fergoose!

yes as far as I am aware they will still get to you ok.

I was just going to come on and ask this.

I tried to change it once but my buyer couldn't pay me and I had to change it back. Although looking back I think I forgot to add the new e-mail address to e-bay and just added it to paypal.

Am going to try again.
