Pay in 4 Denied but was Double Charged
Hi, so I was trying to use PayPal’s pay in 4 feature on Mercari and I’ll admit, I was going back and forth between wanting to apply for the credit or just pay in 4. When I finally decided to use the pay in 4 feature, it told me my request was denied due to unusual activity which was strange because I’ve used it before. I exited out of the Mercari app and tried to place my order a few more times but was still denied. I decided to just pay in full so I went to transfer some money over but I saw that a huge chunk was missing. When I checked PayPal to see what’s up, I saw that I have two different pay in 4 charges that are pending and awaiting authorization. It says I can’t cancel it until it’s been approved or rejected but I’ve already been denied so I’m confused as to why there’s two payments pending. I wasn’t even able to place that order so will the money just come back to me or go into the void? Is there anything I can do to get the money back in my account or do I just have to wait for the authorization process to finish? I tried to report the problem but it won’t let me since it’s on “temporary authorization” and the order will have to be complete.
