Talked to CSR and had a ticket submitted to get the fees back since they confirmed the fee wouldn't be charged until 30 days after purchase.

I asked the CSR if it was a glitch or if the rules had changed. Her answer - it was an automated system deduction So I politely said that that didn't answer my question of whether the rules had changed or if it was a glitch. She then said it was a glitch. Told it would be 1-2 business days to get the fees back. Required all sorts of info though (name, zip code, email address, phone number, city) They said I won't receive an email about the fees being refunded (so why do they need my email) and that I just need to keep checking the balance over the phone

So, if anyone has some Paypower cards in their possession that they haven't unloaded yet, might want to check on the balance before heading out to use them.
