Paypal Held Funds
 

Hi I have funds held by paypal for 21days. When I check the date when it will be available it says 1st January 1970?
Should I ship the item or is paypal planning to never give me the money?
Any one else had this happen

This is really strange, where did you see this date?
Could you post a screenshot?

Where it says when funds are available in PayPal the date is 1970.

What should i do

upload tracking and see if the date updates?

Lots of glitches like thous are in PP.

Beside that one you can also get one "pending untill undefined", "Try later", some insane date like yours (got 2022 years once..), "unavailable" or else.

Just if it is funds from ebay- just go to ebay and mark the package as shipped. In a minute averything will be fixed and you will see a normal 21 day period date in your paypal. If it is PP->PP transfer, mark it as "processing" in PP. Thats it.

And this is not the worst glitches you can image :D

This is a glitch that normally goes away after submitting tracking information or marking the item as dispatched.

If you are still wary, mark it as dispatched wait for a minute and refresh the page, you should now see a date (just make sure you send it the same day and upload tracking).

PP is full of these glitches - like Bunneh stated, upload the tracking info
