Can I pay with my refund? I got an email saying I could, now its now its not showing that option

Pay with refund will not be available until the tax return is available to be e-filed.  E-filing will not be available for the 2025 tax returns until the latter part of January 2026.

See this TurboTax support FAQ - https://ttlc.intuit.com/turbotax-support/en-us/help-article/intuit-account-billing/pay-refund/L9ME4a...

I suspect that they won't let you choose that officially, until the actual filing season starts.

That won't happen until well into January.   Absolutely no one can file now anyhow.

But you will be far better of just paying with a credit or debit card.

Tons of folks lose track of what refund is left (and don't get any $$ remaining)  when they choose the refund-payment option....and if the IRS changes your refund...then chaos ensues.

DO NOT FILE before the end of January.

Even if TTX lets you e-file sooner DON'T DO IT as it just sits on the TTX servers until the IRS actually starts AND you cannot access it again.
