Hold on Funds help

[JesusXLoves]

So my dad transfered me some money and when i got the money it said it was pending and on hold and it would take up to 21 days to be released. Any way I can speed up the process. I already filled out the questions about what I sold. Any way I can get my money today?

Its down to how the payment was SENT to an account.

1. If sent using money > goods / services option then paypal would see the recipient as a seller and apply the new seller hold. They would also charge a fee.

2. If sent using the send money > family / friends option then the recipient would have the payment instantly (as long as it wasn't an echeque pending with a clearance date) with no fee. (However that option is not available in every country).

There are however some occasions where friends / family payments are held for reviews but these are normally only 24 hours.
