And please give me my $1.94 back immediately latest date is until December 31th 2001. Reason: You charged me $ 1.94 without my confirmation ! I only pressed a continue button (not a confirmation button to be charged a certain amount of money) on a webpage where you told, that transactions below $100 don't need a paypal card verification. After simply pressing continue I got the *first time* the information from you that you would charge me $ 1.94. Furthermore You tell me, after pay pal card registration, I would get charged it back to my account. But actually=20 - I never wanted to be charged $ 1.94 - I never gave you my o.k. to charge $ 1.94 - I would never have made the transaction of $50 through you if I would have known, that recommended is to confirm/get a card number and being charged automatically without confirmation. =20 After I saw this charging information, I immediately stopped everything and thought that nothing would happen, since I didn't confirm being charged $1.94. But now you write to me in the e-mail below, that I already have been charged. That's NOT FAIR ! I will immediately inform my VISA card support line and block the transaction. Immediately remove my account and all my personal data. I don't allow you to keep, store or resell it ! Thanks for your kooperation.
