Refunda Payments

on August 4, 2020, I sent money to pay for an item via email. I wrote the wrong address, it comes out as non-existent, I did "cancel payment", because they had not accepted the money, and on the paypal app I get written: "refunded" but on my "postepay" card there are still no money refunded. do you know how long it takes to get the money back? thank you all.

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.
