Previously, I had linked PayPal and my bank account. Whenever I used my PayPal card to make purchases through my bank account, it would automatically top up. For example, I linked my PayPal account to Uber. Every time I paid for an Uber ride, it would deduct the fee from my bank account and then PayPal would automatically top up leaving me with a small balance (or no balance) to be applied to my next purchase.
I should also mention that I've never deposited funds to my PayPal account nor used it as an account to withdraw money from, etc. Ever since I opened my PayPal account, it has been used in this manner: linked to my bank account and then, from there, topped up.
Now, here is my issue: PayPal deducted $508.31 from my bank account without my authorization as a top up. I never made a $508.31 charge, so I called my bank who reversed the charge and refunded the money; however, my balance on PayPal is now -$508.31 of which I am expected to pay.
When I called PayPal about this, they told me it's because of prior charges made during March 4th - March 17th that were never topped up. I did the math on those charges and it doesn't come out to the amount of $508.31
I do not owe this money. How would I owe this money if the balance was applied with every purchase I made thereafter?
