Hello, I'm a digital artist and I get paid by making commissions. I've recently updated my price since my service upgraded as well. I've read that one of the reason the payment might get hold is because of unusual activity, such as a change in the usual price. I've got 250$ on hold at the moment, and I'm still accepting incoming money since I know as long the money is on my account everything would be fine. But it's been 7 days since the first payment got on hold and it hasn't been released yet. I was thinking maybe it got something to do with weekends, so I still have my hopes that it will get released this coming weekdays. I've also read somewhere that it's not really 7 days? but rather 21 days. I'm writing this because I'm a bit worried and frustrated, I've been using PayPal for about 2 years now and I've done countless transactions, this is the first time that it happened. and since I was selling my service and not a product I don't have a tracking number. so there is no option where I can send a confirmation to the buyer. I'm still hoping to get my funds this coming weekdays, but if it doesn't, will it really take 21 days? or within 21 days? I understand that PayPal has to do this protocols to avoid illegal activities, but I find it unfair for those who are simply using it to earn money from their services and not receive any updates from PayPal. Anyways, any thoughts that might help?
