Cancelling a transaction

I paid money to an email address .com instead of .co.uk by mistake. The status is unclaimed so i have followed the paypal instructions on cancelling the transaction but when i click on to cancel there is actually no option to cancel even though the status is unclaimed. Does anybody know how i can cancel it? Thanks

If its unclaimed without a cancel option then it means that whilst it was an incorrect email addy to the one you wanted to send to, it was a valid email address . . .So >>

 

if and only if the payment remains unclaimed paypal will return it to you 30 days after paying.

 

HOWEVER keep an eye on it as if that email addy claims the payment then you may have to file a dispute to get your money back as that account will have nothing to send you.
