Money leaving bank account but not appearing in PayPal?

At the start of the month I had sent a payment but there wasn't enough in my bank account to cover it so the bank returned the payment so it was covered by "my PayPal balance" which gave me a negative amount showing. However today the same amount was taken from my bank account BUT i can't see why it was taken as the "PayPal balance" is still negative?

If you have failed bank transfer then Paypal automatically keep trying to access those funds to clear your negative balance.
They have already fronted the payment to the seller on your behalf and so want the money owed.

As paypal use the cheaper payment transfer option it can take up to 5 days for the funds to show on your balance to clear the neg status.
