£1 charge made to bank card but there was no verification code attached so how do I verify my account ?

The code will be associated with a £1 charge and will appear in the item description section, printed next to the word 'PAYPAL'.

If the £1 charge is there then the code will be.

If you are charged via a debit or credit card it takes 3 days for the payment to be processed and show as a full transaction on your bank account. That is why cash machines and online banking show "account balance" and "avilable balance" because ypur babk is paying the card issuer the money they loaned you when you typed your pin in.

Not talking about a bank account we are talking about a card.

And you do NOT have to wait 2-3 days.

>>

If your online card statement shows pending transactions you may be able to see the code within minutes.

Most folks these days can view their card statements online.

So if the £1 charge is showing then the code should be showing.............AGAIN if its not then it may be the poster needs to re-add the card.

Word being may however standard advise is that if you can't see the code after 3 days sure but give it 72 hours before you remove it and 're add it. (Been there done that)

Standard advice hey? In your 4 kudos experience

You miss the bit that said been there done that. I had a good whine at an agent when I tried to confirm my card and they told me a lot of people make the mistake of blocking their card trying too soon.
