Pending payment

I paid a bill via PayPay - The funds for the payment made have been deducted from my account but i notice that the transaction still says pending on the vendor's side. I presume that means they have not accepted my payment. If I cancel the transaction (which was made on 3/4/19) will those funds go back on my card/account?

Is it pending on YOUR paypal account and if so is there a cancel option?

When you cancel a payment those funds can't do a u-turn > they have to process through to paypal who will then either return them to your funding source (if you paid with a debit or credit card), or credit your paypal balance (if it was funded from your balance or instant bank transfer), but that takes a few days and sometimes up to a week.

So if I used my debit card, it would go right back on my debit card- correct?
