PENDING Money Received

[smallharryuk]

I'm getting really annoyed, my friend sent me some money into my Paypal a while ago and it's constantly saying "PENDING Money received" and then "eCheque estimated completion date is 23 July 2019", it is now 25 july and its still not in my paypal account?!?!?! Whats going on?!?!?! My friend has available funds in his bank account and it should've cleared but it hasn't

Clearance date is an estimate dependent on the banks processing times.

Although this is correct I have a sneaky suspicion that PayPal is drawing every last penny from the interest before they release people’s money. They must get millions doing this.

How can they get interest on payment going from a bank account via ACH in batches TO paypal????

If they haven't actually got the funds to pass to the account holder then how can they get interest on the funds??
