Haven't checked that. I should call my bank and ask them did you refuse a payment from paypal?

this is how it is.

1) i previously had "this" paypal account.

2) it got limited more than 180 days ago.

3) i received an e-mail from paypal a few days ago saying "i am now entitled to withdraw my funds".

4) i had no accounts spare, so i made one with natwest online "first reserve"

5) added that info into paypal.

6) tuesday i get an e-mail saying it was unsuccessful due to my bank, there could be many reasons, blah blah blah...

7) i have now added my friends natwest "current" account to see if that will work, as well as requesting for the verification deposits to be sent to the "current" account for it to also be confirmed...

i dont know then, if all you want is to take remaining funds from account why cant you use the original bank account that you confirmed the paypal account with. Likesay in the UK as far as I know savings accounts arent compatible with Paypal which could be the problem, different rules apply in other countries so ChristianM could be wrong.

when i logged into the account a few days ago, the acccount "which was confirmed beforehand" was not there/it was not listed... that is why i made a new account and added it to paypal to withdraw the funds.

Why didnt you just add the same bank account that you'd previously? Did they say that account was invalid or something? If you are going to lose this paypal account anyway it seems pointless wasting new bank accounts just to withdraw whatever funds you have left in the paypal account.

Last time i was limited for 180 days i did not bother confirming the account, i just added another account and withdrew.

Do you have to confirm that account now, dont see the point if it your farewell withdrawel


Did you ring the bank and ask them if it was them that refunsed the money and why ?

If it was the bank due to name difference i would have just tried again with the same account, it usually works.

Also cristianM has writen another option for you.

i have just logged into my paypal account, and I can see that my money has been reversed back (AGAIN) to my paypal account... (even though i sent it to a current account).

I will now go ahead and try christianm's theory to see if the 2-3 day withdraw works...

There are no issues withdrawing to an unconfirmed NW 1st Res account, I use one and have had no problems.

MaKE 100% SURE that the attached bank account can accept ACH Transfers

Exactly as Slapped said - make sure direct deposit option (or equivalent) is doable.

but was your account limited? and did you do the 2-3 day withdrawal?

I will give you guys an update friday/saturday & very latest it should be in there by next monday!

Yes it was and I used the normal withdrawal not the faster service.

ok, thanks for that.

and how many days did it take you to receive it?

it only took 2 days

I did the normal 2-3 days withdrawal on wednesday 25th January.

As of now, I am still waiting for the money to be credited to my account...

edit,

just checked my account and it has finally arrived.

it took (excluding the weekend 4 DAYS... in total 6 days...)

pleased you got it.

I had similar problem with my genuine business account, fast withdrawal would never work my bank and PP did not know why but the slow boat withdrawal could sometimes take 7 days to arrive.
