@8838sebasty    Try just leaving the account alone for a day or two, switch off and on your wifi/cell connection (could be weak or bad signal causing issue) and then carefully try to withdraw again.    If you keep repeating the same failed action, forcing it, the security system may be triggered and block you, taking longer to reset so when you receive an error message the first time, MAY BE try again one more time but I would immediately back off and wait a few hours and then try again. The problem usually fixes itself. ... View more

@Haileyella88    Some sites require a card as back up but the system will always check if you have enough in your PayPal balance first and use it, otherwise will use your card. The reason some sites ask for card depends on their services, they might want to set up a billing agreement so your future purchases with the site will be streamlined and quicker.    May be just wait some hours and try again later as I've also observed "once", that a user was able to finally pay without adding a card, after having been asked to add one. ...

@Vaibh_35    When you examine the features of both account types as advertised on the PayPal India Homepage (mouseover the personal and business menus), you will see that business accounts are promoted to be able to request and receive payments. Not so much with Personal accounts which is more for shopping online.   By the way PayPal India accounts cannot receive or sent friends and family payments. ... View more

@VladimirMoldova    5. Withdrawing Money. 5.1 How to Withdraw Money. Depending on the country/region in which your Account is registered, you may withdraw funds from your Account in any of these methods: (a) by electronically transferring them to your U.S. bank account or to your local bank account, (b) by electronically transferring them to your card where available, (c) through a PayPal initiated Automatic Transfer to your linked financial instrument, or (d) by requesting a physical check through the mail. In certain countries, your ability to withdraw to a local bank account may require the use of PayPal Retiros. Different currency rules may apply to PayPal Retiros. Please see terms and conditions for additional information regarding the service. Depending on the country/region in which your Account is registered, the currencies in which you may withdraw your funds to your local bank account may be limited. With the exception of Users with Accounts registered in the People’s Republic of China or unless otherwise specified, when withdrawing your funds to your local bank account, funds may only be withdrawn in your local currency. If you are holding a balance in U.S. Dollar, you may be able to withdraw the funds to your linked U.S. bank account or card where available. If you are holding a balance in a foreign currency, you may only withdraw that balance (or part thereof) after it has been converted to (a) the local currency if you are withdrawing your funds to your local bank account or card where available (b) U.S. Dollar if you are withdrawing your funds to your linked U.S. bank account or card where available. Depending on the country/region in which your Account is registered, you may be able to withdraw your funds through a third party service provider. Please see terms of such third party for information regarding currency conversions.   Policies may have changed.   Was your card issued in the US? If not, then PayPal will convert to local currency on withdraw and the card will convert back to USD causing double conversion like it does with bank accounts. It's not so much the currency of the card but the "nationality" of the card or bank account.    PayPal converts to local currency on withdrawals in general. Buying maybe a different case though, as we can indicate to PayPal by calling customer service what specific currency to use on a card with regard to purchases. Just doesn't seem that PayPal allows you to withdraw in USD currency if your financial details are not US based. They haven't been allowing it for bank withdrawals so it would stand to reason it also applies to cards.   To contact customer service for further assistance: Log on, click HELP on top menu, scroll down to click CONTACT US, and then scroll down to click CALL US.   Or contacting via social media: Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/paypal Twitter: @AskPayPal ...

@Flint78    Ask seller to send you a PayPal invoice with 'allow partial payments' enabled:   From PayPal Invoices Help Documentation:   Allow partial payments If you want to accept a deposit or partial payment from your customer, check the Allow partial payment box at the bottom of your invoice. You can also set a minimum amount. Your customer can then make a full payment, pay the minimum, or pay an amount greater than the minimum.   Your invoice will have a Partially Paid status until it’s paid in full. The amount paid will also appear on the invoice for both you and your customer.   The partial payments feature allows your customers to make multiple payments toward the full balance of one invoice, rather than you having to submit multiple invoices. It is not intended to be a credit product or to allow for an excessive number of payments to be made. We may contact customers if we suspect they’re not using this feature correctly. ... View more

@Rahba    PayPal often requires buyer to return item on their dime in order to get a refund on Significantly Not As Describe (SNAD) claims. Was a SNAD claim filed? If so, let the buyer escalate claim to PayPal (or you can escalate) to step in to make a ruling, if you want the buyer to return item anyway. The buyer is not entitled to return shipping costs as PayPal cannot make you refund more than what the buyer paid. The buyer can apply for reimbursement of return costs if the program is available in their regions.  They can check by clicking "Offers" in the top menu of their account and scroll around for the "Return Shipping On Us" offer. ...

@WilmaSchmilmer    Actually if you're in the UK, it is 15 gbp: https://www.paypal.com/uk/webapps/mpp/refunded-returns   Return it tracked so you can have proof of delivery. I don't know what to tell you. It's how PayPal resolves matters of Significantly Not As Described, return for a refund.   Or you can forego the PayPal dispute altogether and go for a credit card chargeback for Not As Described. The seller will not be protected and will be charged an extra chargeback fee for PayPal to handle the case on behalf of the seller. ... View more

@aramz86    Truth is... Read the program terms. It's not a 100% guarantee, warranty, or insurance so there are some limitations. PayPal never claim it is 100% protection but there are some protections (ie. Item Not Received or Unauthorized Payment). Seem like the buyer knows more about PayPal seller protection that you do.   Sellers are particularly not protected from claims, disputes, and chargebacks where the reason is SNAD.   Best to work with the buyer to resolve SNADs or it will be taken out of your hands and cost you $20 more.   Don't make decisions based on emotions but on making sound business decision, meaning how much $ you will lose if you don't resolve vs resolving. ...

@WilmaSchmilmer    You're not entitled to return shipping costs in disputes because PayPal cannot refund more than what you paid to the seller. The seller can, although not obligated to, offer to send you the return cost money as a separate transaction but they can turn right around and dispute you back if they received the item "damaged" too. It could go on forever. However, you can take PayPal up on their Return Shipping Refund program, up to $30 USD. ... View more

@Twilight5145    If the guy received his item, he should repay you. Buyer telling PayPal that they received it won't make a difference to PayPal as they won't try to bill the buyer for the debt owed to you because they consider the matter closed. It would be different if you had tracking number showing "delivered" status but you don't. PayPal only collects debt that is owed to them. Perhaps try sending the buyer a PayPal invoice or money request. ... View more
