Does PayPal transfer money over weekends?

I withdrew £150.00 from my PayPal on Wednesday evening around 5pm. I got a message telling me that the withdrawal had been successful and that the money would be in my account from 2 hours-3 days. I really need the money tomorrow (Saturday) and was just wondering whether or not it would be there, or if I would have to wait until Monday.

 

Another thing to this is the fact that I only made my account in the last week, but due to the way that the money was put into my account (Gifted) it didn't say it was pending like it did with money that I recieved from someone during a transaction. Will this affect it? 

 

I did try calling PayPal, but although they were extremely friendly, they were at the same time pretty useless, and I came off of the phone knowing no more than I did before!

 

Help please!

The transfers are pretty much automated and usually done in batches.  Weekends should not make a difference.

Did youi get your money. I made a transfer today (Saturday) It says 3-5 days to transfer. Do Sundays count? It does say biz days so I'm not sure what to think.
