Hi there, @infinyours 👋 Sorry for the confusion here! I think we can help clarify what might be happening in this situation for you and @Unruly.

This kind of temporary authorization is something that we see often - especially with customers using debit cards. If an attempt at a transaction is unsuccessful, a temporary authorization will process on the customers statement but will not actually post to the account due to the transaction not going through.

While these authorizations tend to fall off of a statement in 24 to 48 hours, your customer can have them removed more quickly by reaching out to their card-issuing bank.

I hope this information is helpful! Let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks so much!

No problem, @infinyours! Let us know if anything else comes up!

This just happened to me, and my client came back demanding I refunded her the money back. Umm, so now what? I will be missing money now? I went ahead a issued her a refund on my ONE transaction that showed up on my end.

@blancabruni1012 Were you able to check out @Joe's answer above about temporary authorizations? Sounds like that could be what happened in your case. 

If you're unsure, you can always give our CS team a call so they can verify for sure what happened. Unfortunately we don't have access into account and payment info through the Seller Community.
