Odd Bank withdraws

I have attempted to contact PayPal several times via phone and email.   I spend 45+ minutes on hold and never get to a live person and emails are not responded to. 

 

I noticed several very small withdraws over the last year from PayPal.   These charges show up on my bank statement but do not show up on my PayPal activity.   This is very concerning, since I do not have my bank account setup for withdraws, just deposits and I have my credit card set as the primary.  I cant find anywhere in the settings that points to my bank account for withdraws.

 

Since I am unable to get a response from PayPal, does any know what these charges might be?   There doesn't seem to be a pattern to the timing or the amounts.   The amounts very from $0.30 to around $3.00.

If you bought something online with a debit or credit card and did NOT log into your paypal account then of course it won't show on your paypal account as you bought as a 'guest buyer'.

However your seller may have processed that payment using their Paypal 'card reader' and so Paypal would show on your bank or card statement.

If that is not the case then contact customer services AND your card issuer to query the transactions.

If you need to open a dispute for a 'guest buyer' transaction then you can.......
1. Phone Paypal customer services and see if they will open one for you OR
2. Contact your card issuer for a chargeback.
