Suspicious paypal transaction

I have removed a card from Paypal account and 3 days later there is Paypal transaction of 1 pound (date of transaction is the same as the date of removal). Is that normal? I thought this only happens when a card is added, not removed? Or is it somebody else adding my card to his/hers account?

Hello lsrodka, 

 

Thank you for your post and welcome to the PayPal UK Community 🙂

 

I am sorry for the delay in our response. Based on the details that you described, it sounds like a temporary authorization charge.  Whenever you add or edit a card on your PayPal account, a temporary authorization charge of $1 or 1£ is made to verify that the card is active. In this case, there no reason to worry as the temporary authorization charge should be credited back in your balance shortly. 

 

Hope this helps, 

 

Carlos
