Hello!

 

I was looking into buying an item, i had calculated the cost so I'd have the right amount of money in mind when I added funds to my paypal balance: 20$. Now, i go to buy that item today because the electronic transfer finally appeared online... but the item ended up costing me 46$! Because id be in negative balance, i decided to add funs to put my paypal balance back to 0.00$.

 

Is everything fixed now? Or do i need to do something else?

 

Thanks for your help!

1. You are on the UK site so not sure why you are paying in dollars??

 

2. If you are a buyer why are you transfering funds to your paypal balance all the while?? As long as you have a funding source attached to your paypal account and verified it will take it straight from there.

 

However to be instant from your bank account they like you to have a back up card registered to your paypal account as well.

 

If you have made a transaction and there was not enough in your paypal balance when paypal go to take the funds then they should take it from your bank account.
