unable to Transfer funds to my bank account

Anyone else as frustrated as I am with trying to transfer my pay pal balance to my bank account but I keep getting the error pop up page saying I am unable to be identified please try later. After I have answer the all the questions to clear who I am. I have called and called and called customer service over over over and it's gets more more frustrating for me cause the customer service person tells me that everything is set and my account is working and I can go a head and do the process over again. Knowing that it still tells me to contact them yet again and I have to go through this hole process yet again and again, and the normal worker I get don't understand what I'm trying to say. And when I ask them to transfer me to their supervisor they have a different sound in their voices. And I have said this over to them it's just they won't be able to do anything for me cause they're not getting what I am saying. It's not their fault I might be explaining it wrong or they don't have the right training for this question. But yet every customer service supervisor the past I have talked to told me the same thing but the last supervisor I talked told something different. That yes it maybe that it does require a 72 refresh boot but really I should probably wait untill a another 72 hours to try to process it again. This really blows my mind cause they can't over-write the program the systems. Or at least offer some can of credit each time or something at least

Same here. First they held my money bc the buyer didn’t hit received item button. Even though I supplied USPS proof. Finally after a week they released it. Tried to put it in my account. Says 24 hour security hold. 48 hours go by no money released. Contact paypal lady says oh I’ll cancel it for you and you can do it instantly. So I do that then I have a 72 hour hold. 7 different chats bc I’m now livid. They are holding over $950 after taking our way too many fees I might add…I’m on the 60th hour right now. The last person was trying to get me to cancel it then go collect it at Walmart. Which when I googled it every single person who has attempts that has gotten denied and their balance debited anyway. PayPal is one giant scam it would seem. So I guess the guy enjoying his new iPhone on me is happy and I’m out $950. I have no faith that PayPal will give me my money at hour 72. My friend got ripped off when she sent money to her friend overseas. A year later and out of the $2000 she sent her friend only got $600 of it. After she disputed it trying to get it back that way they emailed her friend saying they sided with her but still didn’t release any more money. Their customer service is trash. They outsource on purpose bc they dgaf about whether or not anyone is happy. As long as they can steal people’s money. They aren’t really a bank so they have so many legal loopholes that allows them to do it. I will never use PayPal again. This is absurd. Finally get working again. Slow start after covid. Sold my iPhone so I had extra cash to get my kid some gifts. PayPal goes and steals from people who have next to nothing. Garbage. I’m not sure what I’m going to do if they don’t hand it over. They’re truly the devil.

Oh and they absolutely can override it. They just won’t. I forgot to mention they tried to say my bank declined the transfer. My bank said no they didn’t. No transfer ever came. There would be a record of it. They also said they get tons of calls like this every day over PayPal. PayPal does whatever it wants to. Evil corporation. They understood you. You want your money. They don’t want you to have it.
