    It's more than likely just a hold on your account to make sure you have funds available if you've recently entered your card somewhere.
    I know this freaked me out when I first started banking and entered my card details into iTunes, they held £1.58. I didn't think I'd entered them right either, so I was constantly putting them in again. Before I knew it, iTunes were holding about £10 for a week before it went back in
  • There's always been a difference of £2 on my Nationwide credit card between my balance and available balance but I've never mustered the effort to figure out why.

  • Not to mention the payroll guy in one of the Superman films who diverted the fractions of a cent (from round-downs) to his own account!
