Hello, So my situation is the exact same as yours. Irs said check has already been processed and can’t change bank info. PayPal Is saying they don’t wana do business anymore but emailed me last week and said I was on track with getting stimulus. They should at least let u know what to do moving forward gosh Any luck finding answers?????

Still no reply from them. Have you tried to get ahold of the IRS? I imagine that's fruitless as well. I would think if paypal doesn't want to do business with us anymore the account's would not be able to accept a direct deposit. Let me know if you hear anything.

I'm going through this issue to with my stimulus check. I filed a complaint with the Better Business Bureau. I'm waiting on a reply. PayPal emailed me stating they no longer wanted to conduct business with me 🤣🤔 That there was suspicious activity on my account. The last transaction I attempted was right after my $1,400 was deposited. I was at a laundromat, hungry, washing my clothes and chilling there watching TV. I was doing this because I'm houseless living out of my car. Since I had gotten money I was elated and crying praying and thanking God, the universe and for all my blessings. A gentleman from Mexico just so happened to walk in selling dozens of tamales for$10. I asked him if he accepted PayPal. He said no, what's that. I explained it to him. An account was made in his name and I proceeded to attempt to purchase some delicious tamales. My transaction wouldn't go through, then PayPal permanently closes my accountal smh 180 days for me is until September 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

When will we start seeing our direct deposits? I checked the irs website and it said my money was deposited today so since they cannot hold money from the irs where in the **bleep** is my money?

"Once the payment is sent, it normally takes 3-5 days to show up in your account." 

 

PayPal is not bank account. They are a middleman in terms of processing direct deposits. Give em' a chance to update PayPal accounts.


Kudos & Solved are greatly appreciated. 🙂

Except they cant hold funds deposited by the irs I called during tax time they said it themselves. They told me the 3-5 day range is when it's a transaction from buyers or something like that. So what's really going on

So on the IRS website it says I'm getting my stimulus deposited into my PayPal account (matched up account number to make sure it was the right account) and it hasn't been deposited. What is the latest PayPal does deposits? When should my money be deposited? Any information would be helpful. Also the same thing is happening with my fiancee and her stimulus money.

Please be patient, it will get there. PayPal is not a bank account but a middleman. It's not like giving an actual bank account for direct deposit. The data has to be transferred from our custodial bank (Wells Fargo) to PayPal in order for the amount to be reflected. And when you have millions of direct deposits happening, it'll clog up the servers.
