Paypal has returned both of the MYR1.02 to my Maybank Visa Debit 2 weeks after from the date shown above. However, the MYR1.05 has been returned by Paypal to my PB Day2Day Visa Debit 3 weeks later. It has no any transaction record, but the holding amount has been reset to RM 0.00 under Account Details.

I used to link Tune Visa Debit Card last year. I didn’t find any holding amount by PayPal apart of the $1.95. But, this time, I have just linked both my PB Day2Day Card and Maybank Visa Debit to PayPal. I noticed that other than the $1.95 for verification, there is another amount MYR1.02 (for Maybank) and MYR1.05 (for Public Bank) is hold by PayPal.

For Maybank, if you have M2U internet banking account, it will be shown under Accounts & Banking –> Savings Account –> Debit Card History as “PREAUTH SALE PAYPAL DATED 13/02/10 $1.00 RM1.02“.

When I was first curious about this amount, I searched through Google. I found that some Malaysians are having the same issue. So, part of them said they got back the refunds. I am not so sure when do I receive the refund, so I called up Maybank. One of the operator which is kinda impolite, insisted that the transactions are between me and PayPal and nothing to do with Maybank. So, they don’t know anything. I was wondering if they really couldn’t retrieve the information about the transaction. I didn’t ask much because of the impolite attitude. Until then, I contacted Public Bank, I clearly understand what happened.
