Payment Status Processing

[GryphicKnight]

I'm a little confused, and no one is seeming to be straight forward in the forums I find, so I do believe I'll try here! So, as of recently, I've created a Paypal account, and verified it to a bank account. On November 30th, I sent from my bank account, 92 dollars to add to my Paypal funds, in an attempt to purchase something when they went through. The status, right now is Processing, and it won't give me any info other than that. Even when I click on various statuses and their explanations, Processing isn't listed. Do help a confused stranger out?

1. Firstly you NEVER need funds in your paypal balance to pay for items, you just pay and paypal will take it DIRECTLY from any funding source attached to your paypal account.

HOWEVER it may take longer if you ONLY have a bank account linked and not a back up card as well, if you only have a card thats fine.

2. It takes approx 5-7 days to process from your bank account to your paypal account via the "add funds" link on your paypal account.

Aw, shoot. I had no idea it worked like that. Can I still pay for the item via my Paypal funds, however?

By the way, thanks for replying!

yes once the funds have cleared through to your paypal balance paypal will automatically use them up first.

Are you sure about that no need to add funds?   I am pretty sure I already bought something and didnt had enough in my paypal, and had to pay extra fees. something around 40-50$.

Btw I am in the same situation, transfert on Nov29 10$ and still nothing.

I think sometime between now and Wednesday, the money processing should go through FINALLY haha

I don't understand why my transaction is still pending...I set up a pay pal account and transferred money from my banking account to my pay pal account and my paypal is still 0 balance. Payment Status is Processing. If I get this money I wll probably not use paypal again...this is far too long of a wait. It is day 6 and still waiting.

I'm on day 8 of waiting and still no funds in my PayPal account. I'm very disappointed especially seeing as how the money came out of my account the day after I set up the transfer. Very bad experience with PayPal so far.
