I sent £50 to the wrong person.

The transaction is complete.

They won't answer my e-mails about returning it.

I cannot find the button to make a dispute/claim.

Any help would be appreciated.

I sent to 'friends and family in the UK'

 

Hope that wasn't a massive mistake?!

In that case you sent a 'gift' to someone, you can't file a dispute as you were not buying anything  Smiley Sad

All you can do is 'ask' if they will refund it but if they don't you can't force them.

Your only hope is if you funded that paypal payment via a card, in that case try a chargeback.

Hi,

 

It did go through my debit card, I had 0 balance on my Paypal. How would I do a chargeback? Thanks for the help btw!

Contact your bank and see if they can help but unfortunately chargebacks are normally successful with credit and not debit cards, but worth a try at least.
