should we be scared
 

2 withdrawals from PP to 2 dfferent bank (both halifax easy cash accounts) were returned

with the following message

Status:
Reversed

The withdrawal to your bank account could not be completed because of a technical problem. The money has been returned to your PayPal account.

Subject:

Bank Account
Transfer to:
Halifax (Unconfirmed) x-xxxx

slightly concerned as EC are rock solid usually

have done them again so will see

fingers crossed

I have been having same issue with Halifax saver accounts and one with easy cash account
I had to change it to natwest.

not good news at all

keep us posted micky

will do scarlet

This was always going to be a potential problem once the Lloyds takeover was completed.

Were these the first withdrawals to these accounts or were they all ready up and running?

We shall have to wait and see.

Watching this thread with interest - please keep us informed:spy:

Also avidly watching this thread as just been the (formerly) happy new owner of two new easycash accounts and cards. Looks ominous....finger and legs crossed

i have hsbc and coop accounts and not had a prob so far, must be just halifax, but keep us updated

these accounts were not the first withdrawal.

I have been using these for years. Had no problems before until now.

PayPal is catching up to our tactics:help:

Well let's wait for some clarity on this i guess - I went into halifax the other day when i opened these accounts and did get confirmation that they can recieve credits in another persons name....now granted there are a load of muppets working there but the person seemed to know what they were talking about....famous last words though, granted.

waiting for clarity on this/if anyone else has had this?

This would not be p/p's doing but the bank rejecting the deposits.

As I said the takeover of Halifax by Lloyds was always going to create the potential for this to happen as they do not allow mismatch name deposits as we all know. So it may well be that Lloyds are now imposing their systems on Halifax.

NoneOther, you have a good foresight on this. I find you are usually very accurate & very reliable with your comments & insight.

You know your stuff.

noneother

the account has been running for a long long time

the withdrawals i did yesterday HAVENT bounced back yet but still showing as pending

will keep you posted

hoping it is as the email said

The withdrawal to your bank account could not be completed because of a "technical problem"

someone at halifax might not have turned the "accept paypal transfers machine" on that morning:smash:

I dont know if noneother remmebers but i have had the same problem you are having OP with the Halifax Easy Cash accounts a month or so ago :smash:

Lloyds take over was several months ago now and new systems being implemented take time to roll out, often with a few trials before the main event.

I currently use several EC accounts without issue but interested to see how this is developing.

It would be very unusual, in fact unheard of for any banking group not to employ the same procedures and policies across the whole of the group.

Stay tuned

Have you enabled these savers accounts for DIRECT DEPOSIT? Some by default will not allow it.

Very worrying, very worrying indeed

Not a happy bunny - holding off downloading until more info becomes available

Stiff drinks all round me thinks

:violin:

weird because ive got an already existing halifax account and withdrawed fine :s but ive been withdrawing from it for some time..it is very slow though (takes like 6 days to recieve funds it should only take 3)

They are not saver accounts but basic bank accounts that are fully DD capable.

As I said previously I have had no issues to date with any of them, all deposits going through ok but others appear to be having problems.

May be just a glitch but we shall see in time

I have made withdrawals earlier today to both a BOS and Halifax easy cash account. Funds should be there on Thursday. I'll post back on this thread what happens.

Withdrawals went through without issue on both accounts.

Nicely done hunny bun!!:thumb:

Downloads R Us today!!:clap:

:dance:

just to add none of my withdrawals from the 10th have gone through (though not reversed)

withdrawals from 11th and 12th still pending

Check at the bank.

More likely an internal glitch to worry you :smash:

halifax say there are no problems

no record of any reversals of payments at their end

3 more reversed tooday/yesterday

time to call PP

Looks suspect - this appears as if PP are looking at you more closely for some reason allying their suspicions/doubts as to you at some level ??? :shocked:

Watching this unfold with interest.

:juggle:

SUVE shush :boink:

just got off the phone with PP and they tell me they have had technical problems and thats the reason for my reversals


so we can all breathe again

also just to let you guys know

halifax have had technical problems themselves on saturday/sunday with faster payments

happy days

Wont PP now have your correct bank name now due to the reversal

aww, you poor thing worrying there for the past week, you had everyone worried there for a minute as well, I mean look how many replied to this thread lol !! :p

Good times continue...

:thumb:

EDITS: clapclap - that crossed my mind as well....

it would seem not

Yes I had a payment go through on a savers account today no probs. Had me worried guys
