I made a mistake in the email address for a payment on Saturday and cancelled the payment. I expected the payment to be immediately or on Monday back on my credit card. It is is not and paypal seems to be uncontactable. Can someone maybe tell me what I should expect. Many thanks

Gosh you were lucky, if that mis-spelled email address was valid to another person you 'may' have lost your money !!


Luckily you could cancel, so when you cancel a payment those funds can't do a u-turn > they have to process through to paypal who will as the transaction was cancelled return them to your funding source (if you paid from your bank account or with a card), or credit your paypal balance (if it was funded from that balance), but that takes a few days and sometimes up to a week.
