Has anyone managed to pay for EE with debit card?
I need to pay 1040$, my credit card has only 1k limit. Can I use TD debit card? If not what do I do?

Someone else will probably have the right answer in regards to the debit card question but have you tried calling your credit card provider to ask them to temporarily extend your limit.

Hi
1. From CIC Note:
Online payment tools do not currently accept credit cards that are also used as debit cards (e.g. Visa Debit).
2. Pay the Application fee first, then pay the RPRF at a later time.

That's what I wanted to do but I have originally selected that I'd pay for both and now thats my application is already completed there is no way to undo it.
This is extremely frustrating and really stupid.

Put the money on the credit card so you have sufficient funds on the card?
Capital One lets me do that, my limit is small, so if I need to pay say a 500 payment, I put on a 200 payment which puts on a 200 credit in my favor and they will then let me charge 500. 300 credit limit + 200 payment I made = 500.
Of course only works if you have a 0 balance to the bank and 100% of your credit is available.
I have no clue if all banks let you do this though.

Call your credit card company and say you are trying to make a transaction for more than your limit. They'll either just raise your limit (likely if you've had the card awhile), or they can clear that transaction as a one-off. Get on the phone to them, though, there are ways around this sort of thing!
The method jsmth posted as well may also work.
