Weird PayPal Key story

I made two Best Buy purchase towards and of November using PayPal Key.

First one was immediately ready to ship and charge posted on Freedom the same day. 

Second order didn't process untill today (I just received email last night about order being available for pickup).

This time, charge showed up on my debit card. 

I thought for sure this was a fraud since I don't remember adding debit card (apparently, when I added freedom, it also added CSR and debit card 😐).

 

Anyway, there is no fraud, amount is correct, but the card I used isn't where the charge ended up. 

 

How is that possible?

 

Thank you

Re: Weird PayPal Key story

Did you use Paypal Key to pay or did you use Paypal payment option on Best Buy website when paying? Because if it's the latter I think I know what happened here

Paypal key, manually entered card number. Best buy invoice shows last four for paypal key generated card.

Even though the Paypal key card number is shown as the payment used for the second purchase the debit card was charged?

 

That is...a brain twister if I ever heard one

 

I ask because due to a slip up a month ago I accidentally charged a Best Buy purchase with debit card linked to my Paypal account. Took awhile for me to figure out why that happened

Excellent!  Is 🧹 delivery service still available to request?  

 

Btw, that's an interesting PPK development.  I always assumed the transactions would go through on the selected CC 🤔. How did the other 2 payment methods get added?

First image is paypal key showing Freedom used as payment source 

 

Second one paypal summary, showing debit card used as paypal key funding source 🤕

 

Third one, payment on best buy website, properly reflecting paypal key.

That is an easy question to answer

 

Paypal makes it super duper easy to add credit/debit cards when you don't have them on hand by logging into your account and doing it for you. This is the only way I know her three cards were added

Apparently, when adding chase cards, if you want to do it the easy way with Chase Pay, all cards are added in that process. 

You're given a choice between adding cards individually or via chase pay.

I thought it would add only CCs,but it added debit card, too.
