I need to cancel a withdrawal I have made to the wrong bank account

Please advise how I can do this as the bank account I have sent to in error will swallow up the funds.

Hey there justrolling2001,

 

As it has been nearly 48 hours since this post if you haven’t contacted PayPal yet you won’t be able to stop the withdrawal.

 

There is a short period that PayPal can cancel a withdrawal to your bank account, this can be 5minutes or it could be an hour, once this time has passed there is no way to cancel the withdrawal.

 

You may be able to do something on your banks side but I’m not sure if they can stop a payment from being credited to an account. Worth a try though.

 

Let us know how you get on.
