Payment in return
by Jon Harald Søby 15 Jan '11

15 Jan '11

Today I got an email from PayPal notifying me that the payment I made for Wikimania had been returned. It said something about it having to be manually confirmed, and that that had not happened, so I got the money in return. This is obviously not the way it is supposed to be, so I wonder what I should do about it? -- Jon Harald Søby http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Jon_Harald_S%C3%B8by
