The Merchant refunded my money almost immediately when an item was out of stock. How long does it take Paypal to release these funds so that I get my refund?  It is going on 2 weeks now...

Has it seriously been 2 weeks now, and i have a hard time believing the guy for 6 weeks.

 

Have you contacted paypal and spoke with them about it rather than getting on the forums?

 

There needs to be some validity or credibility to back up the length statements for the 6 week guy.

 

You should get a refund as soon as it passes through the ACH.

 

Has it already been taken out of your accounts?

 

I have a hard time believing some of these posts are legit as they seem more like trolls with only 1 post.

Yea, they're serious.  A request a money transfer 7 days ago (a process that takes 3-5 business day to complete, according to them).  Not only has the process NOT be initiated, they told me they cannot do anything about it.  I contacted my bank who informed me that as long as it is not in ACH Transfer phase it can be stopped.  I paid the stop payment fee and cancelled my PayPal account.  PayPal has been riddled with lawsuits and crazy business practices.  I only wish I'd known then, what I know now.
