Paypal Balance NOT Correct
 

Ran into an issue with my balance showing incorrectly. Have called multiple times about it and have received no answer as to what is going on or why I have a discrepancy in my balance.

I have about 20 transactions that are held/pending (typical 21 day holds). My available balance shows a certain amount of money, and then I also show a certain amount in my pending/withheld balance. When I look over all of my transactions and add up the total of all pending transactions (minus fee), I come up with a number that's about $30 higher than what the Paypal pending balance is showing.

Just an example:
-Available balance showing: 500
-Pending balance showing: 500
-ME ADDING pending transactions: 530

I cannot find where this missing $30 is. I've called Paypal multiple times and they have no answer for me and say they come up with a different number completely than what I have come up with. They also say I only have 15 pending transactions, when in fact there are about 20. Even going through and adding all of my payments received, and payments "sent" (shipping labels), then subtracting the two, I still get completely different numbers.

Has anyone encountered this??

Re: Paypal Balance NOT Correct
 

Every so often I ran into this and it's a delay. IE: I sold an item today, got paid today.
But PP didn't email me about the payment until 2-3 days later and it's nowhere to be found.

This happened for 1 of 2 reasons. First is they are still approving the payment from the source. Or their system is glitching out thus the delay.
