Give a penny, but take a pound?

So when I set up my new PP account I had to look for a deposited amount in my bank account, and confirm the 4 digit code from that deposit, that deposit from PP to me was £0.01p

 

Next I have to confirm my debit card, this time I have to look for a 4 digit code from a withdrawal from my account, that withdrawal going to PP was £1.00

 

So I give you £1 and you give me 1 penny, first of all, why not an equal amount for each, so we are back to starting balance, and why did you sway it so that you get the £1 and I get the penny?

 

Can I have my £1 back please? 

 

And in future would you change it so that you deposit the same amount as you withdraw, you know, so it's FAIR

Why don't you read the information on confirming a credit card before going off on a rant?

When you confirm the card it has to be a £1 as they work in a different way to bank accounts.

HOWEVER when you confirm your card the £1 is REFUNDED as per link.

You can keep the penny though !!!
