Help with making an Ebay account...
there's some stuff I really want on Ebay but Iam stuck on getting it to work. I have got to the page where you have to enter your credit card details but I only have a solo/debit card But it tells you to enter your credit/'debit' details ...anyway I was browsing through some stuff and I was sure I saw a solo icon at the bottom of the 'buy it now' page which surely means they accept it and as most sellers are happy with cash/cheques I can't see why I shouldn't be able to buy anything. But Until it accepts my card details I won't be able to bid right?
Any help appreciated..

You BASTARD!
yah, i got mine from mail.com
they have a ton of endings you can use, and it looks more official.
the only ones you can't use to sign up are hotmail and yahoo i think.
one more thing, if you are going to use Ebay, i strongly suggest using paypal as well.

If you're using an anonymous email address (such as hotmail) you must provide either a credit or debit card number. This is used to verfiy who you are. Click here to see FAQ on this subject. I think its also used to protect the buyer in a transaction. For example if you bought and payed for an item but the seller refused to ship it ebay could settle the matter by charging the sellers credit card. If you have more questions click here to send an email to customer support BTW, I'm a member have had lots to great experiences. Its a little intimidating at first but you'll get the hang of it.
