Every single transaction I make using my Paypal Debit Card - Mastercard, gets a temporary hold. Wether it be at a gas station, any store, anywhere. I'm sick of these holds. I've been with paypal for over ten years, business account.
He'res the kicker, i'm in Canada, so what happens, is between the temporary hold and the currency conversion change, which happens hourly, they mess up and think its too different transactions. and dont remove some of these HOLDS.
Yesterday I had 19 bucks and change in there. today i have 6 dollars and change.
I am now considering , not using this card period. if theyre going to rip me off like this, on a daily basis.
I have been all over this board', and no where does anyone else seem to say anything about this TEMPORARY HOLD when using debit card. I could show you my transactions, over a weeks span, its disgusting, there are more 'temporary holds', then anything else. tons of them.
