Transaction Amount Merchant Name Merchant Number
$1.00 PAYPAL 00XXXX45455XX
$1.95 PAYPAL--*EXPUS 00XXXX45455XX

Paypal mentioned that the charge would be 1.95 .. but 2.95 has been debited from my account . .
Why is it so ?

Oftentimes, when a charge is first made, a dollar is deducted to mark the transaction...Sometime later, the real amount is taken out and that $1 is ghosted...

Usually, this depends if the charge is initiated as a 'Debit' or 'Credit' transaction to begin with...

Yes! I have got 1.95$ as a bonus today as I have verfied my account with credit card and they have charged me for that. Now they are giving our own money as a bonus.

Lol

Don't worry you'll get that amount back, I got mine after 5 days, even though paypal says, that they will credit it in 24 hrs..:rolleyes:

So a $1 is a bid deal for you? :D
Just like kgrad's said it will be credited to your account soon. :D
