I'm new to PayPal. Not a buyer or seller. My friend lives/works in Saudi Arabia and sent me just over £200. Because I needed access to this money today I was advised to use PayPal. So I setup my account and the transfer was successful from his PayPal to mine. Then when I transferred it to my bank account it's in "pending" status. I'm dissatisfied and feel betrayed by PayPal because before doing so they advertise immediately to 2 hours. After having transferred funds to my bank it says 1-3 days. Now I'm reading about people waiting 3 weeks? This money was to help me out of an emergency. Please advise. When I tried calling them no answer. Got a message asking me to call back later.
