I sent money to the wrong PayPal account.

[BubMarlo]

In a brain-lapse moment yesterday I believe I have sent money to the wrong PayPal account. I sent the money from my bank to this PayPal account assuming it was mine, however I have yet to receive the money in my PayPal account. Alongside this, my bank is showing the transaction as being completed. Does this mean that a PayPal acocunt has in fact received my money and if so is there any way I can get the money back or get into contact with the owner of the PayPal account? Thanks in advance.

Your question is very account specific and we would be unable to tell you why this has happened over a public forum. I would suggest contacting us via Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/PayPalUK/, Twitter - @AskPayPal, email or phone and we would be happy to advise.
