Default Paypal is soooooooooo annoying!

Had enough of these clowns!

I sent a E-cheque last week and then had the reciever cancell it almost instantly as it didnt suit them. ( the cancelled transaction appears on my account)

A week later paypal take the amount of the E cheque from my account anyway

I called some forgien call centre to have someone that can barley speak english state that after I sent the E cheque it has to go thru and it cant be stopped

SO paypal have 110 pounds of my cash for no reason!

They say that it takes 5-7 working days to transfer back into my bank account as UK bank accounts cant do instant transfers.

The 7th working day is toady so checked my bank account online and the cash still isnt back in

I wnet back into my pal pal account to get the phone number to complain again and Im 110 quid in credit!!!!! WTF!

I now have to transfer this back into my bank and it takes ANOTHER 5-7 working days!

pissed off!

Someone sent me an eCheque a few weeks ago and it took 2 weeks for it to clear! PayPal can't/won't tell me why it took so long when they say "up to 5 to 7 working days" for it to clear.

you only get an E-cheque when your card details are out of date all you got to do is up date them then it will not happen.

Sure, I dont know the ins n outs but if he listed paypal as a payment I cant see you have done wrong.
You paid or atleast tried to pay via paypal?
If he then didnt want your pending paypal payment that then is a diffo thing.
