To be fair it is your second day of using it so I guess they are just being cautious with you. Give it a while and build some trust with them and I imagine things will speed up. No point cutting off your nose to spite your face. Try and see it as a positive, if they are treating you, an honest new user with caution then they will be doing the same with the fraudsters out there.   They seem to of sorted the issues now so this is all I can imagine it it, think yourself lucky you werent using it when withdrawls took a week ...

OP has probably sussed this but i'm sure many others will be looking in here.   This might answer your question.     "Your withdrawal request status Your withdrawal request has been submitted to your bank and is now being processed. Your funds can take up to 2 hours to appear in your bank account."     Seems that instant withdrawls are being rolled out slowly and these are not the £5 12 hour withdrawls, these are free and in my case immediate, there was no 30 minutre pending period it just switched to completed after about 20 seconds. Rang my bank straight away and the funds were there. Amazing step forward and something that will surely attract people to use Paypal. ... View more
