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.

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.

As for Public Bank, if you have PbeBank.com internet banking account, it will not be shown in the e-statement or transaction history. It will only be shown under Account Inquiry –> Deposit Account –> View Details as “Holding Amount: RM1.05“.

I asked an operator about this holding amount. He said it was not the amount hold by the bank. So, I was asking for the transaction details. He, on the spot, look it for me and clarified for me that was an amount hold by PayPal. Further, the detail stated that the expiry date is 12/3/2010. He said this is most likely meaning that PayPal will refund this amount to me once it reaches the expiry date. I was thinking this is quite logic, as when I searching through Google, I see some of the people were saying they are refunded for the hold amount after few weeks.

So, let’s wait and see what am I getting for both banks after 2 or 3 weeks thereabout.
