How do I show a running balance...

[MaxSMoke777]

As of 11-30-2021, it hasn't been fixed or addressed. I am very concerned as there's $200 more in my account at the moment then there should be. One might think "Yah, free money!", but I depend on PayPal for my business, and I'm certain they'll come for that over balance sooner or later. I can't even figure out how, or even when, this happened because I can't get a running balance!

Hello @MaxSMoke777,

Welcome to the PayPal Community! I was able to find a Help Center article you may find useful: How do I find a statement report of my PayPal transaction history or running balance?

I hope downloading your activity will help you find any unrecognized activity. 

Good luck!

When I click the balance view, it has the minor oversight that it no longer shows the available balance from transaction to transaction. Someone on the tech team needs to fix this mildly startling omission.

Hello @SoaringSeal,

Thanks for joining the Community! 

I understand your concerns about not being able to see a running balance. It sounds like you may find downloading your statements beneficial. You can learn how on our Help Center: How do I download a statement report of my PayPal transaction history?

I hope this helps!

Thanks Meagan,  That will probably allow me to access the information I needed.   But, I would encourage the development team to either totally rename the balance view or have the balance view actually show the bloody balance (like it used to do).  I would encourage you to pass this suggestion on to them.

I totally agree with you.  It's really inconvenient to not be able to see the running balance.

The help article you referenced "How do I find a statement report of my PayPal transaction history or running balance? " is not correct. It does not show the running balance. In my account it only shows gross, fee, and net. No running balance.

I finally discovered that the only way you can see the running balance is if you download the CSV file.

No this does not "solve" the issue.

The balance is not being shown in balance view. This is a issue. It used to work just fine, now it doesn't. This needs to be escalated so that it can be fixed and not some lame work around like you have given us. FIX YOUR PROBLEMS, ENOUGH EXCUSES

Amazon has started charging me for a purchase, refunding almost immediately often within minutes, then charging again then refunding again....I don't know what they're doing and have contacted them and they don't know either. It's very confusing. I think maybe I could make more sense of all the giving then taking away if I could see a running balance. But I can't. Does anybody know where that function is hiding?
