I did something very stupid and need help!
 

My account got limited, I had 160$ in it just now. I figured I could still refund payments that were sent to me to see if I can get back that money.

I ended up attempting to send back a payment of 329$ (more than I had) and I could do it and proceeded to click send. It refreshed my browser and I say ''blabla bank transfer from [cardnumber]) my heart dropped. Pending payment.

I didn't want to do the refund via a bank transfer! I'm not even eighteen and my family doesn't know I make money online.

My debit doesn't have 300$ in it and I am scared Paypal will proceed to do the payment and somehow **** my bank.

CAN ANYONE BE AT HELP! PLEASE!

Can I call Paypal customer service to stop the pending bank transfer? I cannot do it, wont let me. :help::help::help::help:


Edit:
So, I called Paypal with the problem and I asked them if stopping the transaction was possible. It was not, so I asked them what would happen. What they will do is they will try to get the money from my bank. Obviously this will fail as I do not have the funds there. So they will put my Paypal in minus, I can just fill the account up and it'll all be good. No messages to my bank, no fees no nothing! So anyone with this problem and you are underage, just don't worry about it if you don't have enough funds! :)

Unfortunately I don't think bank transfers can not be cancelled once initiated.

It will bounce if you don't have enough credit in your bank account. And if your bank has charges for going over any overdraft limits they will be charging you bank fees.

Giving them a call to find out if it's possible is a good idea. Also give your bank a call and tell them to reject the transfer ... again IF possible.

Not a concern if under 18 like the OP is.

OP, it may take several days but this transfer will fail if you don't have enough money in your account. You have nothing to worry about.

Welcome to the forum - all the best as you master stealth :thumb:

james_ is right - you can't much now except call your bank and/or wait it out.

If they money isnt in the account it will just fail.

Are you sure? I'll call them tomorrow. I've been googling straight for 3 hours.

I kinda make it worse and worse for myself by getting more anxious as I search and search.

I feel like ****ing crying, I swear. All of this for a silly 300$.

Thanks, dude! Will call Paypal, all of the replies made me feel a lot more calm. God mental issues are insanity. :cheer:
