Weird paypal refund glitch?

[FandangoKango]

So somebody paid me today via paypal and the money was on held funds, but I refunded because of a problem thats what the buyer wanted so I refunded and I didn't pay attention to where the funds will be drawn out of because usually when i refund it takes it out of the held payment section, but when I look at my paypal the holds were released on that payment and it says refunded on the paypal transaction page, but on the transaction page it says money funds will be transffered in 3-5 days. I didn't get any emails. So what digs? On ebay it doesnt show yet like refunded...

Could be that it just needs a little time to update itself before it shows

Like a 5 y.o. kid posting - heh FandangoKango you made me laugh good stuff =)

Never really noticed something like although eb has taken time to show an update on a refund. Don't think much to be learned from this. All the best.

It did that to me yesterday too. The funds for the transaction were held anyway. However, when I refunded, instead of just returning the funds that were being held, they withdrew it from my bank account. And it's AMAZING how fast they withdraw from your bank account. I did this yesterday late evening, and this morning, the money has already been taken. Wonder why they can't DEPOSIT that fast.

A glitch no paypal will refund them from other soucres and keep the payment held as long as they can. Thats how these crooks work. and you ever notice when u buy something use your bank or creditcard that when its charged they take it out instantly but if u was issue a refund to the card it takes 7 days to post back on the card or 1-3 days for a depoist to post. Some how these banks and stuff is benfenting from it by holding peoples money for so long this is why they do this.
