Payment to Argos via Paypal credit still pending

[angeljs]

I made a purchase to Argos using my Paypal Credit. For some reason the payment is showing as 'pending', but there is no more information. The item is on special offer and I don't want to miss out by the payment being delayed!

When you pay a company (rather than an ebay seller or individual), then it is often pending until that company processes your order and captures the pending payment.

If they don't process that order and capture the pending payment then the pending status times out at 30 days post-payment.

Ah, so it's the company rather than PayPal, thanks for the clarification!

Hi, I think the same thing has happened to me. I tried to use credit to buy something from Game and it is still pending, very little information given! How long did it take for your Argos order to process and did it go through successfully in the end? Cheers
