I have not added, deleted, updated or changed in any way my credit card on my PP account yet there is the $1 charge from PayPal. Why are they doing this?

That is an pre-auth temporary charge when you make a purchase sometimes. Instead of doing a pre-auth for full amount of purchase, they pre-auth $1. Did you make a recent purchase?
Kudos & Solved are greatly appreciated. 🙂

I responded to your post but for some reseason it’s not showing.
I buy and sell on eBay and have been for many many years with daily transactions. As I said, the card has been my primary funding source for a long time and has not expired or changed in any way.

The only thing that I did was registered a new credit card on the card section to used as an alternative card. Now, there is a pending charge for $1.00 from PP* Merchant on my account. The real question is, Does the charge will posted or not?
