Hi lily234, 

 

Welcome to the PayPal community forum. We are always happy to have new members. 

 

If your balance is at 0.00 and you have not used or withdrawn the funds then I would recommend that you check to ensure that the funds are not on hold. If you click on the details of the payment you received you will be given additional information. If the transaction is on hold for any reason you will not have access to the funds until the hold is removed. 

 

There are a number of reasons why a payment may be placed on hold, for example if you are a new seller you may be subject to payment holds. This will hold the funds until positive feedback is received or you provide valid shipping information showing delivery to your buyers address. If neither are provided or received then the payment may be held for up to 21 days. 

 

I hope this helps answer your post and please feel free to post any further questions.

I recently bought an article using paypal which was faulty.  I returned it and received a refund which went back onto my credit card.  The vendor also refunded my postage.  This amount - minus VAT for some reason - has appeared in my paypal account but not credited back to my card.  I can't seem to get it back.  How do I access it or spend it on a future transaction.  I am currently out of pocket thanks to paypal!

1 am having same problem refund of 75 went in on the 14th June and now the 22nd had two emails from seller saying it is cleared and still nothing showing. I lost about two hours of my life wrestling with automated so called paypal customer service.. please do not try it it is fruitless if it hasn't got shortcut saying your exact problem , and am now losing the will to live. Have put complaint into ebay so god knows how long I will have to lie out money and not sellers fault. I will never use a seller who only operates through PayPal again. Usually just use card and never have any issues. Absolutely shocking. Any advice would be great

Hi there stevesmag77,

 

If the original payment was made using a bank transfer we need to wait for the original funds to clear from your bank account.

 

This can take 5-7 working days to clear so if you see there is a 'temporary hold' on the refund it will be released to your PayPal balance within this timeframe.

 

Hope this helps!
