Default paypal question ?

Hi,

I transfered some money from my paypal account into my bank account yesterday but today it still says its 'pending'. When ever I have done this in the past it will always say 'completed' the next time I login Could this be because the payer hasnt enough money on there card or something ?

cheers, Duncan

Don't think it's anything to do with lack of funds from the payer

It usually takes about 5-7 business days to go through the electronic clearing process, depending on your bank
Some of my switch card transactions still haven't gone through from before Christmas, due to Christmas being on a weekend and the following bank holidays

so do you think its ok to send the goods even though the transaction is still pending ? I need to be sure really because all my other transactions say completed but this one hasnt changed yet, the goods are quite expensive as well.

cheers, Duncan

is the transaction pending in your activity? or the transfer of funds to your bank account pending?
As the one in your activity should say completed???

I would say that's ok, as you usually get an email from paypal after requesting the transfer stating it takes 5 to 7 days to clear. Basically, you are waiting on funds to be transferred from Paypals account to yours now,
but if you wanted you could hold on to the goods till it clears to be sure
