So I go to Applebees, you know, the 2 meals and appetizer for $20...I'm a cheap date since my ony spending money is from ebay sales.. I pay for the meal with my snazzy PayPal® mastercard after adding a tip. I come home and it shiows up online with a hold which is customary since the original cost was posted and we are waiting for my 20% tip to ship up with the final total. A day or two later the Temporary hold is off with the correct total displayed in the column..you know, -28.25 Then another day, or later withthe same posting date another Applebees charge for the -28.25 shows up again. So, is this customary..for the original charge to show up, then show up again when it is finally posted? Back in the day..Paypal had a running total column which showed your balance next to the amout rec'd or paid. Since I can't see that column anymore, I'm ot sure if it was deducted from my account twice or just the once. I don't want to open a dispute becuase I am not disputing the charge, just need the clarification...and of course there are no help options to ask that question. I also don't want to open a dispute because they may cancel the card, make me re-apply and I've done that before...don't want tot do it again... any ideas out there?? photoburg
