    Hi
    I ordered a book from play.com (€8.50) .
    and now on my online bank statement i see they are charging me this
    plus 2 other 1€ decuctions!!

    I don't understand this extra 2€ i am being charged ?? is it maybe because I use
    a debit VISA Electron card ?

    I read through the T&C's and there was no mention of it,
    They just got back to me with a ticket number.... if i don't have it resolved by
    tomorrow I'll give 'em a call...

    anyone know if this is a standard extra charge ?

    Hi
    I know what you mean but no, they are 2 deductions,
    After investigating i see that some shops charge an extra 2-3% for VISA electron , but not 25% !!!

    ok it appears this is just an account verification operation,
    they will refund my money soon, they don't charge extra with V Electron.

    It should only happen the once too. When you place a new order it will not happen again.
