Got charged more than the bill

Hello I’ve bought something and the bill came to £924. I’ve paid that via PayPal but PayPal charged me &982.33 in my bank account! Any ideas? Is It because I’ve created PayPal in Germany but live in the UK now and I have to pay a fee that PayPal didn’t tell me?

You have paid the international cross border fee.

 

Paypal is country specific so if you move countries you have to open another paypal account in the country you reside in and add an address / phone number / and bank accounts from within that country.

You are supposed to withdraw any funds / resolve issues / remove cards and bank accounts before you leave your old country. If you don't then you may have problems doing so once you have moved.
