Paypal reversing many payments
 

Ok what the funk is going on, I have had around 5 transactions reversed today on paypal.

It is very strange as the sale does not even show up on ebay, and on paypal I can see the money went in then reversed. A lot of customers are complaining saying they genuinely wanted to buy the item. If it was 1 or 2 I would think fraud but this happened 5 times today and am only 30% through my accounts.

Re: Paypal reversing many payments
 

if you check the buyers feedback history, did they buy items from other users this month?

I had this happen on a transaction but the buyer had not bought for over 6 months on ebay

I hope you didn't get linked..

some of the payments are going through but some are not, its especially bad in last hour, I think since separation of two companies someone majorly screwed up the system, is anyone else having the issue.

It so weird, even on ebay I can see on my listing lets say 1 item sold but when I click on the 1 item sold it doesnt show buyer id or anything.

In the past 1 hour, had 2 people buy same item, one payment went through all fine and showed the sale on ebay, the other didnt get email from ebay only from paypal about the sale and then payment reversed, what the funk

Re: Paypal reversing many payments
 

Nothing alike here. I suggest you say to the buyers that there is some kind of a temporary system glitch, and they should try again tomorrow.

Re: Paypal reversing many payments
 

Same thing happen to some of my accounts today... items sold and i received paypal confirmation of payment but not ebay confirmation. the ones that i never received the ebay item sold confirmation all got reversed payments.

Yes exactly same as me bro, the problem still seems to persist, dunno wtf to do, maybe end listing and relist. So annoying I had my best selling day in a white but half the payments got reversed am pissed

read this just now

"Paypal told me it was a problem at paypal's end.
They had the IT guys working on a number of issues that occurred when paypal split from ebay."

seems I was right someone majorlyyy screwed up and will NOT be working at paypal anymore. This idiot cost paypal millions if not billions.

Re: Paypal reversing many payments
 

This happened only on newish pp accounts that didnt have EU receiving limit fully lifted for me. How about you Bunneh? did it happen on aged accounts?

Re: Paypal reversing many payments
 

These accounts were created in feb :pout:

Re: Paypal reversing many payments
 

but did they have Eu limits lifted?

Re: Paypal reversing many payments
 

1 yes & 2 no.

Re: Paypal reversing many payments
 

bloody hell ebay seems to be pushing through the sales now, maybe even manually, I keep on getting ebay SOLD emails without the paypal emails.

Problem is some customers made same purchase 3 times, this is freaking so anoyying am fuming right about now. To make it worse the sales they pushing through are inconsistent with big gaps, I am sure this is going to make my listing go way downnn in the ranking when I was topppp of so many searches grrrrr

Re: Paypal reversing many payments
 

oh FFS please dont say thats happening now... i dont need this on top of it to..

Especially since i have invoiced buyers to via paypal to pay again.. now if i have to manually refund double payments im gonna be even more pissed off if i get defects!

Re: Paypal reversing many payments
 

This just happened to one of my buyers. She said that she called Paypal and they said "they are aware of the problem and it was a computer glitch they were trying to resolve".

Re: Paypal reversing many payments
 

computer glitch? haha that sounds so funny, they make it sound like their windows 8 froze up on loading when in reality its some dumb mothatucker messed up and cost millions of dollars to both ebay / paypal and sellers, not to mention the ruined reputation... if that was even possible haaa
