Withdraw Additional Funds During Escalated Claim.. ?
An international buyer opened a case against me (I've learned my lesson not to get involved with any further international transactions from now on). I rarely get any type of disputes or cases (the case amount was for around $800). My Paypal balance was negative for a short while, but I've covered the negative amount with payments I've received for other items over the past few days. Now I have around $700 in the account on top of that which is NOT being used to cover the claim and I don't want Paypal to keep it's greedy paws on it. It is available for withdrawl, but the question is should I withdraw it? I am nervous to transfer this to my bank account when the "Not As Described" claim is still open because I might be limited. I basically need clarification on this as I would like to clear funds as soon as possible (person left negative feedback as well which will most likely be removed, still at 99% though; currently covering it up with positives from other methods but we all know how things can have a domino effect).
I'm currently waiting for the item to be sent back (I am in the item return stage). I am not concerned about the return of the item (I have since cancelled it due to the customer being a bad apple), I'm moreso concerned about withdrawl. Would it be safe to extract these funds now, or wait until the case / claim is over, or will I be screwed either way.. ? The account is a matured stealth account and probably about over or around 3 years old with a registered and legitimate business. There is no EIN or TAX ID on file though; I've been holding off on handing that over until it is absolutely required. Quote:
Complaints - Any complaint is not good news. If you have any outstanding complaints on your account, be sure to resolve them within due course. If you have several outstanding complaints, and you try to make a withdrawal - it's likely you will get a limitation. For all paypal know, you could need to refund £400 worth of payments, and you try to withdraw, and bugger off with the funds. It's not going to happen. Clearly not getting any complaints in the first place will be the easiest thing, but if you do, resolve them as quickly as possible.
| I have seen the advice above on another board referring to "Complaints," however it mentions multiple complaints. I only have one dispute case open on my Paypal end, so I'm not sure if this still applies.
I will thoroughly inspect each response here before taking any action..
Thank you.
