i dont think its anything to do with the banks, banks have had the faster transfer going for a while.

I think its more to do with pp delaying he payments in the first place , once you have so many transaction, how you treat your balance , little disputes and so , then they see you as less of a threat.

hmmmmm online saver withdrawals arriving instantly form new accounts

but not on the older ones

bizzare

I wonder, will the verification deposits start to be sent via faster payments, or do you think they'll keep it the same?

i would think they would also be faster

I've just added by bank account to one of my accounts, will see how long the deposits takes....

I done verification deposits on monday they took 4 days, thats with a Barclays account

Not mine yet unfortunately on all the 6 accounts :-(

i posted after that

Confirmed: I got this message on a withdrawal i made 1 hour ago, and now it is my account

(RBS Bank)

No chance of this hitting North America right...?
Kinda makes me wish I was living in Europe. Makes life soooo much simpler lol.

pros & cons on both sides of the atlantic bud

is everyone now getting this ?

no only on a handful of accounts

even PP accounts with the same (type of) bank account are differing

Happens on my contemporary accounts not on my established ones

I went to withdraw funds and it still says 2-3 working days

same here. RBS

Something has defo changed even for those of us not getting faster withdrawals.
All my accounts are new, so have holds and take 5 days withdrawals. BUT - Funds were released for an item I sold to the US last thursday after I provided a tracking number. I didn't withdraw straight away, but when I did (at midnight) literally four hours later the buyer claimed non receipt. Before, that would have resulted in a massive reversal of the bank transfer, but nope, my paypal account is negative and the money hit my Halifax saver a day later.

I investigated and found item had not been delivered yet, so have emailed paypal and the buyer to explain that the tracking (airsure) on USPS.com shows item is in the right state an out for delivery, so hopefully all will right itself shortly re: my negative balance, but.. yay for no massive claw backs from withdrawals anymore! :D

fantastic news, stealth accounts here we go :)

Dont be so naive.:deadhorse:

If this deal goes sour, paypal will suck the funds from your bank account.

You may find yourself in deep doo-doo if you do not monitor your account carefully. :nono:

been getting the 24 hr review message on nearly all withdrawals for 2 weeks now, inc, one I cannot withdraw from as bounced back several times, so much for 2 hrs.......

Same here Oompah - every draw down goes into 'review' for 24 hours

what banks this where its bounced back, roughly how olds the account ?

will not say on open forum which bank, cos bank + bounce = oomp
it bounced and I decided to spend it instead of another try, til this all blows over...it is a 3 year old acc.

2 other withdrawals were ok after the 24 hrs

none large amounts, all under £300

only have 1 account with the faster transfers went to withdraw for the 1st time on friday and got the security message its still sitting pending now is this the norm at the minute?

It should go through tomorrow - next working day.

hope so thanks for your quick reply

I got it on two accounts but this time it did not go through straight away... transfer was requested on Friday and went through exactly 24 hours later on Saturday.

For some reason, the email informing me of the withdrawal request says "up to 24 hours", not 21. And this is exactly how long it took.

the email i have says For security reasons, we are reviewing your withdrawal request, which could take up to 72 hours. After our review is complete, PayPal will release your funds. It can take up to an additional 2 hours for those funds to be deposited into your bank account

I just transferred 545.00 USd at 945 am and received it in my bank at 1042 am.. less then an hour

Since mine took the full 24 hours stated in the email and not the 21 hours originally stated, I assume that yours is going to take the full 72 hours.

Hmm - I get the same as Elijah on every withdrawal now - I've not yet had the 72 hours though

:ranger:

I've had a bit of both - some 21 hour reviews, some 24.

Looks like pp are experimenting at the moment. Hopefully it will settle down soon as Im not liking this withdrawal lottery!

latest one got the 24 message, but it actually went in within 2 hrs....and did not get a second email.

just had that account limited there just before the 72 hours is up there asking for id,proof of address and business info do you think its worth doing or is the account gone?

Always worth giving them what they want.

The main question is do you know WHY it has been limited.

What amount were you looking to with withdraw?

no dont have no why its been limited. tried to withdraw £100

Did you sell a "high risk" item?

i sell clothing elijah

If it's branded then you know the answer, lol. And if this is the case then that will be why you got the information request when you attempted to withdraw. If you left the cash in there forever, they wouldn't have done anything to your account... since the limitation is triggered by attempting to withdraw/spend funds associated with a "high risk" sale. PayPal is strange.

So if you sold something high-risk, that would be the cause of this, and yes it would be worth fighting for the account in this instance.

yeah that could the case then thanks for your help
