Paypal and Egg Credit Card: Fee?

Hi,

I have just logged into my Paypal account to be confronted with a message that I am "nearing my £1700 received funds limit" and that I need to provide further information for the limit to be lifted. This entailed me transferring £1 from my registered credit card to Paypal so that I can enter an "Expanded Use Number" from my bill. Now when I was doing this I was half asleep because I didn't realise I even had my credit card registered so I assumed it was my debit card. Of course later I realised upon checking the numbers that I must have registered my credit card for previous security checks. Therefore, my question is, will there be a fee payable to Egg for doing this transfer, such as a cash advance for example? I usually transfer funds straight from my bank account, so this is new to me.

As it stands it feel its a bit of a rip off anyway since they only refund the £1 to me when I make a transfer to someone else via Paypal, which is something I rarely do :mad: Just hoping I won't be stung further by Egg.

Thanks,

Alex.
