Situation at hand is thus: - I recieved a Paypal Invoice for a physical item I preordered - a figurine. This invoice was expected, but it was not expected at this point in time, and I'm a little short on actual cash to pay the Invoice right now. - I decided that, since I did have a credit score increase recently, I would try to check with PayPal Credit and see if I would be approved to pay for this purchase. I already have an existing PayPal Credit account and balance at this time, but do not have enough credit to pay for the purchase otherwise; I'm primarily doing this to check if I can increase that balance before I decide whether or not to use it, because I can't actually check whether or not I'd be allowed to increase my balance otherwise. - I press Pay in the expectation that PayPal would try to check whether or not I would be approved for an account balance increase. Instead, it simply says that the Invoice has gone through. - I do recieve an email saying "Important Information about your PayPal Credit purchase" as if I were approved. However, nowhere can I find any explicit indication that yes, this purchase was legitimately approved, unlike some previous attempts to increase the credit line (when I had a lower score). I don't want to suddenly find out that oops, this wasn't approved at all and that my bank account suffers for it.
