This is a help board not paypal customer services so no one here can "put it in your account".
Two reasons for paypal holds on refunds.
1. When you pay a seller it is never instant, paypal pays the seller for you and then starts the process of uploading your funds from your funding source.
If the seller refunds before that payment has completed then you have to wait till it clears through to paypal then the refund is credited to you.
2. A seller can only issue a refund via funds in their paypal balance or an echeque So if its an echeque it has to clear through to the sellers paypal account and then it is credited to you and the hold lifted.
This is because paypal don't "refund in advance" like they do when you pay for an item.
