Hi Lelele

 

When u make a payment even if u cancel it within 2 hours it cant reverse it has to go through the payment process before it can be returned back to u.

Could take up to a week

When you initiate a payment by funding through a bank account, Paypal credits the seller on behalf of the buyer. Paypal will try to collect those funds, up to two times if the first is declined or failed for whatever reasons. When a payment is canceled by either the seller or buyer, Paypal still has to collect those funds. In order for the full payment to be reversed properly it can take 5 - 7 business days on average.

 

You are responsible for all authorized transactions. You cannot stop Paypal from processing the payment because it is an automatic algorithm.

Don't buy these excuses. With today's technology cancelling the transaction that soon after, the money should have never been removed from your bank account.

 

I had the exact same issue (still do as PayPal thus far has refused to respond) and this in my opinion is a total scam.  Why it takes approximately three weeks to get the money back into your bank acount is absolutely asinine.
