Okay, attempting to send money to Sister, who also has a PayPal account. She has not rec'd email re pending transaction, how does she proceed? She has no notice of pending transaction when she logs in, looking for some direction, thanks in advance!!
What does it say next to the transaction in your Paypal account?
1. Pending (with a clearance date on both Paypal accounts = Echeque and will clear on approx that date.
2. Pending/Unclaimed with a cancel option = email address spelling error, as that email address is invalid it can't be linked to a Paypal account, so cancel it.
3. Pending/Unclaimed without a cancel option = email address is valid but not yet linked to a Paypal account. Will time out 30 days post payment if not claimed by someone opening a Paypal account when it may COMPLETE.
4. Payment/Completed or Sent = you may have to raise a dispute for non receipt if that person won't refund the funds. However if its a family/friends payment then you won't have that option and may have to contact your card issuer if you funded your Paypal payment that way.
5. Pending awaiting authorisation = normally to a company and will complete when they capture the payment and process your order. If they don't it should time out 30 days post payment.
Advice is voluntary. Kudos / Solution appreciated.
