I want to add money to my PayPal account balance. In order to transfer money from my bank account to my PayPal i have to do it manually and send the money through a transaction using the bank website, PayPal gives you the specific information you need to put in on the transaction information and they say the name of the PayPal account and the name of the bank account have to be the same so that the transaction works and i recieve the money. My problem is that i didn't put my name on the transaction *sender name tab* because i thought they would be able to see my name regardless. I still don't know if they can or cannot see the name. My other problem is that my name on my bank account is written in greek and on my PayPal account it's writen in english. PayPal says that you can change your account name on their website to match your bank account name and i did it, but it still hasn't changed after a day or two. I'm affraid that because of all this i might lose my money and i don't even know who to contact to get help. I thought i might wait a few days since PayPal says that the transaction might take 3 to 5 business days. On my bank account website i see that the money has been transfered and that i also payed 1 euro fee, so the transaction was successful. If nothing happens in the next few days does that mean that i lost that money forever? Can i ask for a refund? How does this even work? I'm very stressed out because the amount of money was 185 euroes and it will be very bad if i lose it. (To be clear, i read the instructions on the PayPal website very carefully and i knew what i was supposed to do. My mistake was that i had to change my paypal name to match my bank account name beforehand, and that i didn't put my name in the *sender name tab* because i assumed that when they recieved the payment they would be able to see it).
