There are times when i agree with paypal on here and there are times when i do not.
Its amazing how often when i agree with them that the other poster becomes personally abusive and accuses me of working for them OR get a job with them.
I take it at that point they have run out of a constructive argument.

If you really want my opinion then Paypal is hardly to blame because your buyer was stupid enough to not check which card he selected when he checked out to pay for an item. If it was for a high amount then surely he would double check before he clicked submit.......he didn't so both you and he have to wait.

Just to be clear, your answer is: If a customer uses the wrong card with PayPal, they are stupid, so expect to delay a refund by 21 days.

You asked my 'opinion'.
My opinion is that you are blaming Paypal for a mistake that your buyer made.
And my opinion is that your buyer is pretty silly to not have checked his card before making the payment.
If i made a mistake doing a bank transfer then the funds could be lost completely but that would be MY fault and not the banks.
AND I may NEVER get the funds back, let alone 21 days.
So my 'opinion' is that Paypal is not at fault and you should wait until they process the payment so you can then refund it.

It’s funny, I don’t remember PayPal asking for a reason as to why my customer needed a refund. I don’t think either of us thought that was an important detail. Do you think my customer would have gotten a refund sooner if I gave PayPal a better reason? Or do you think PayPal might possibly have some issues with their customer support?
On a side note, I just scanned your profile and see that you’ve been responding to customer concerns regularly for the last 13 hours. For the last week, you’re pretty much responding on this forum every day all day. I’m genuinely curious, what do you get as a ‘Volunteer Advisor’? That’s a lot of personal time.

Thats odd because I went out all yesterday afternoon, not that that is any of your concern but I guess becoming 'personal' when you have lost an argument is your only recourse.
And what do i get out of being an advisor? Well I have lost count of the number of scams that I have prevented or the number of folks that i have helped understand their way around paypal.....again not that that is any of your concern.
Mostly on here we get nice folks, then we get the odd one that thinks Paypals policies have to be 'adapted' specially for them.
Oh and i am off out again in a mo,...........ok with you?
