Hello,
I'm trying to find out how long does it take for an order status that says "refund pending" to be credited back to me.
On 6.29.12, i was sent two emails directly from paypal stating the following:
Details about your shipment Transaction ID: 3N424550DY804845Y and 5FW701638L704471Y
Hello xxxxxxxxx,
XXXXXXXXXXXXX added shipping details. Please note that the tracking information and shipping status are shown exactly as the seller entered them.
We are here to help if you have any problems with your purchase. Within 7 days of the expected arrival date, please take a minute to confirm if you received your merchandise by going to the transaction details page in your PayPal account for this transaction.
Shipper Not Applicable
Tracking number Not Applicable
Shipping status Refund Pending
If you have questions about the shipment, please contact XXXXXXXXXXXXX
I checked my refund history and it does not pull up. Yet when i check my payment sent, it shows in the order status portion it states "REFUND PENDING", it has been that way since June 29th, 2012.
How long does it take for the refund to go thru
Thanks

Hey Olivia,
It actually wasn't for shippment it was a deposit for a vacation. so nothing was actual shipped.
So do you know roughly a time period for a refund status.

Hi ace30815,
That refund is one that will go to the seller for a voided label. There will be no refund to you unless you and the seller arrange one.
I hope this helps clarify!

Hi ace30815,
Thank you for your patience!
I admit this messaging can be a little confusing when seen on the buyer's side of the transaction. This messaging will appear when a seller voids a shipping label. Some reasons a seller may void a shipping label would be if they made a mistake on the label and needed to create a new one, or if they choose to ship with another company, or if they choose not to ship at all.
Have you communicated with the seller? If you have not received your item, try emailing the seller to request a refund of your payment. If you have received your item and have no problems, then there is nothing to worry about. 🙂
I hope this helps!

Hi ace30815,
Sorry for the confusion. I'll clarify what we're talking about. In the information you posted it shows:
"Details about your shipment Transaction ID: 3N424550DY804845Y and 5FW701638L704471Y
Hello xxxxxxxxx,
XXXXXXXXXXXXX added shipping details. Please note that the tracking information and shipping status are shown exactly as the seller entered them.

This appears to be an email you received that PayPal sends out when a seller prints a shipping label for a payment or adds tracking information in the details of a PayPal transaction.
So based on that information the "Refund Pending" is referring to the status of a shipping label the seller printed using PayPal. You are right that it's concerning the seller would print a shipping label for a deposit payment but that's what that status means in our system. If the payment itself was refunded, that would show in the payment status when you log into PayPal. If the payment status is showing as "completed", then the seller has not issued a refund. If the payment status shows as "pending refund" that means that PayPal is waiting for funds to clear from a seller's bank account to fund the refund. If the seller is in the U.S., that transfer time usually takes between 3-5 working days.

Hey Frank
So basically when i go to my history screen and i look at my payment sent. Since the order status says refund pending
in my"sent payment histroy" that means that PayPal is waiting for funds to clear from a seller's bank account to fund the refund. If the seller is in the U.S., that transfer time usually takes between 3-5 b.days...
If thats the case, at any time would that frame be longer or does it depend when the seller bank releases the funds
