Pending payments - Transfer to my own bank account

[LMN]

Hello,

I've recently attempted to withdraw funds from my PayPal to my bank account.

It was fine with transferring £5.00 instantly (and other small payments).

However, when I tried withdrawing £10 and £70, the status just awaits on pending.

It has been doing it since around 3PM...

Why is it taking so long to put it back to my account?

Can be up to 72 hours although if it is going to be longer than 24 hours you normally get an email.

Best to withdraw x1 week rather than everytime someone pays as that reduces the risk of it happening.

Thank you for your reply.

This is my first time on the forums and didn't see the other posts regarding this issue.

Seems to be happening a lot.

Hey, It took approximately 20 - 24 hours for my payments to finally transfer. It's ridiculous, but I'm glad it wasn't 3 days. Hope this helped

Hi there Stefano Meloni here from Edinburgh Scotland I transferred money from PayPal account to my debit own bank account via my iPhone app it was 11 March 2018 but apparently it’s taking longer as my withdrawals is still pending it was for £480 approximately so maybe my PayPal’s is blocked or amount is too large and so limited please
