MaxiCash/Paypal issues in South Africa.

[Wesley24]

I live in South Africa and get money sent to me via paypal every month for the last 3 months.  I had a stroke and am being helped financially for a while until my circumstances improve.  I normally just transfer the money over to MaxiCash who then transfer it into my bank account.  Using the FNB Bank here in South Africa doesnt work for me, as i cannot seem to be able to get it to work, and i have even been into the bank, so maxicash has been the answer for me.

For the past two weeks i have tried in vain to transfer the money to maxicash to pay me out.  Maxicash says its a paypal issue and paypal says its a maxicash issue.  Neither wants to tell me what is actually going on.  I am sitting with money in paypal i cannot use, and i cannot buy medication in south africa using paypal.  I need to be able to get my hands on this money to get my medication.

Does anyone have any answers for me, i am running out of medicine in a few days.

How can I transfer funds from my PayPal account to my bank account in South Africa?

Transferring funds from your PayPal account directly to your eligible First National Bank of South Africa (ETF) bank account is easy and secure.

To transfer funds, you must first link your PayPal account to your bank account.

To link your PayPal account to your ETF account, follow these steps:

Log in to your FNB account at www.fnb.co.za.
Click on PayPal Services and then on Link PayPal Profile.
Follow the instructions to link your accounts. You will need to sign in to your PayPal account to confirm that you are the account holder.

After linking your PayPal account to your ETF account, follow these steps to transfer funds to your ETF bank account from your PayPal account:

Log in to your FNB account at www.fnb.co.za.
Click on PayPal Services and then on Withdraw from PayPal.
Enter the transfer amount in USD dollars. (Please check that your PayPal balance is sufficient to make the transfer.)
Follow the instructions to confirm the exchange rate, the Rand amount you will receive, and the Transaction Terms and Conditions.
You will be directed to PayPal to sign in and verify the amount you are transferring to your ETF account.
Then you will be redirected to the FNB site. Your funds will be transferred to your bank account within 3 to 6 business days.
