.tv channelme.tv and PayPal

[smashfactory]

does anyone use their paypal debit card to buy names from channelme.tv?

i use my paypal card and i am having the weirdest crap happening- everything from channelme.tv gets an additional hold on it from paypal, so DOUBLE the amount is being taken out of my account and later put back- weird - is this happening with anyone else?

I picked up a domain yesterday, and my paypal right now is showing they pulled 4 or 5 transactions from my paypal account - over one hundred bucks! I am waiting patiently until enom opens, before I crucify somebody.

they pulled AND have on hold 9 transactions from LAST week- double was taken out! this is nuts- NUTS

I am wondering which type of payment they will accept to can buy tomorrow premium dot TV names. With names that may worth up to several hundred thousands...
PayPal, wire, CB, check, ... ?
And if they charge several times premium names that worth thousands then some Paypal account may quickly explode..

i would not use paypal for that kind of money anyways-
this is what they are doing- i buy a domain- it is 24.00, they are taking 24.00 out of my account and holding 24.99, which i have no access to- seesm like 5-8 days later they reverse it! but it tieing up a bunch of cash flow for me- this sucks

I think its best to use a credit card for the premium purchase...

I was using PayPal's virtual mastercard, which acts like a one time purchase, only there's all sorts of crap going on with multiple debits.
