Narrative:

I performed a pilot walk around and found three issues. Entered discrepancies into ACARS. Maintenance arrived at cockpit; I personally showed two maintenance technicians the three individual discrepancies (I touched each one as the maintenance techs looked). I returned to cockpit and about 30 seconds later; the older mx technician gave me a thumbs up and made motions like he was calling on the phone. This gave me an unsettled feeling. A few moments later a maintenance release document began to print. I examined the maintenance release document and once again had an unsettling feeling. I called [maintenance] to ask about corrective action and once again I got an unsettling feeling. I decided to go down and check the discrepancies myself (maintenance on the phone with me). I found the fastener by the APU drain still sticking down and one of the fasteners that was missing now had a screw and a fastener that was previously installed was now missing.look at the belly panel picture attached. The two arrows I placed on the panel during my pilot walk around are where the two fasteners were missing. The maintenance tech moved one fastener as indicated in this same picture.maintenance said they would send the tech back out. I returned to the cockpit and see the cargo doors are now closed. I check the hydraulic page and see the yellow hydraulics way over serviced and the green hydraulics are slightly over serviced. I called maintenance again. I know there is new maintenance guidance regarding slightly over-serviced; of course I'm okay with that.
