I bought a TV and cancelled the purchase the next day, the refund appears pending in my Pay Pal account. 1. How long before I receive the money back and 2. will the money go directly to my bank account or will stay in my Pay Pal account?

Hey Osiverio,

 

If you funded the transaction using your bank, the refund won't go through until the transfer from the bank clears, which typically takes 2-3 business days. Once it completes, the funds will appear in your PayPal balance, which you can use to make another purchase, or withdraw back to your bank account. I hope this helps!
