I recently made a payment to Booking.com from my laptop and in the reservation is successful, Paypal shws that my payment was successful but when I go to my bank account, I still have the money. Why is that? When will the money be taken from my account? I made the purchase on the weekend.
Transfers from bank accounts are never instant, that is why when you buy something paypal credit the seller upfront for you and paypal take the wait for the funds to transfer to pay them back again, this is so you get your item without delay.
Takes 5-7 working days to transfer as Paypal use the slowest (cheapest) transfer option BUT funds normally leave your bank account from a few hours up to a few days later.

Hey, Thanks for your reply. This means I need to keep a sufficient amount in my bank account ready for Paypal to get in the next few days when they finally make the withdrawing?
