where’s my money?

[sosxo1]

a friend of mine from paris sent me money on the 25th and i haven’t received it yet. how long does it take to receive money overseas?

@sosxo1 

normally instant but allow a couple of hours.

did she send in USD or euros?

[sosxo1]

it was sent a few days ago and it was in euros

@sosxo1 

Did you add euros as a receiving currency on your US paypal account?

[sosxo1]

no! omg how do I do that?

[sosxo1]

I found out how to do it, so will I ever receive it?

As long as it hasn't been cancelled at the senders end then yes, you should get an email asking you to 'accept' the funds as long as you have added euros as a receiving currency.

thank you so much.
