Sold a item on sunday 10th August, payment received 11th August. Paypal held money received for 7 days before clering it in to there own account. Now TRYING to move those funds to my UK bank account, its pending!!!! I called aand spoke to a manager who kept going on about money laundering WTF!!!! 

Banks dont tak the p*** like you do do. 

will be closing account as soon as this pending nonsense is sorted, will also be sending email to BBC Watchdog regarding this.

Paypal staff cannot even give me a reason for doing this or a time frame when I should be able to get MY money in MY bank.

Hi immmy,

 

I know this type of thing can be frustrating.

 

I've replied to a similar post earlier this morning, which might help explain how this process works and why we do it:

Generally speakling, a withdrawal should be pending for no more than 72 hours but would you consider contacting us through our other social media channels for an update?

 

This way we can pull up your account on our end and give you the specific advice that you need, you see.

 

We are available 24/7 to answer private messages sent through our Facebook page (http://goo.gl/4BO8de) and respond swiftly to any tweets directed towards @AskPayPal!

 

Hope that helps immmy,

 

Conor
