Money transfered to hotel or not?

[Markus1976]

Hello:)

My name is Markus and I have a question:

I booked a hotel abroad and I had enough money on my PayPal (PP) account. Before I booked this hotel, I wanted to transfer the money to my bank account again, because I would not need it, because I didnt know, that I will book the hotel with PayPal. So I gave PP order to transfered the money to my bank account again. In the meantime I found a hotel I liked and I booked it via PP. The money was not yet transfered, but the order was given and the money already on its way off fromm PP. I didnt find a opportunity to stop the transfer of the money and the booking site told me, that the booking for the hotel is paid. One day later the money appeared on my bank account and now I dont know, if the hotel is paid or not. Of course I will write to the hotel, too. But I also wanted to ask the community here.

Thanks for hints or suggestions in advance
Markus

Normally when you pay paypal credit the seller / company for you and the funds can take a few days before they leave your bank account.

If the payment is marked as sent / completed then the hotel should have been paid.

Thank you for you fast reply. But how can the hotel have been paid when the money arrived my bank account?

Sorry, I forget to mention: I had two transfers. One of 25 Euro and one of 157 Euro. The 25 i left on PP, the 157 Euros I transfered back on my bank account. Buit the sum for the bokking of the hotel was 123 Euro, and the 25 were going off my PP account. What I did now was, to transfer the difference of 99 Euro back to the PP account, so I can pay the hotel.
