Hi @Saniklou,

 

Welcome to the PayPal Community!

 

I'm sorry to hear that a payment you sent to a friend is on hold. If the system is stating that the funds are being held for 48 hours, unfortunately there is no way to speed this process up. Our security system reviews every transaction that is sent through PayPal. It will sometimes put a hold on a transaction if an additional review needs to be made. If the transaction is stating that it is on hold for 48 hours, the funds should be released to your friend once that time is up. 

 

I apologize for any inconvenience this has caused.
