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

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

2. If they had sent using the send money > family / friends option then you would have had the payment instantly with no fee. (However that option is not available in every country).

Yes Sir and i was really really upset. We are planning to refund everything and will not use the PayPal. This is very inconvenient service specially I'm sick and i only depend on financial assistance of my fiancee. I hope they will help me for this.

Yes, I'm asking cause I'm in the same situation, but I've been told it won't take more than 21days which is way too much, I mean in times of crisis people need money fast and paypal isnt delivering, the hold time Is just way too long, after my issue is resolved I don't think I'll be using PayPal until things change.
