New PayPal Withdrawal Window?
 

Havent seen this before, is this a keeper of a glitch?

New withdrawal system on PayPal says

0-3 days depending on your bank?

Is it a BACS glitch so they have turned to CHAPS or the way things will be?

Re: New PayPal Withdrawal Window?
 

I got that screen and message yesterday withdrawing but recieved the money immediately.

Re: New PayPal Withdrawal Window?
 

0-3 days depending on the bank is right

Nearly all banks are on the faster payment system but some are not. The 3 day part of this would only effect the banks not on the faster payment system (the post office is one example when I last checked 18 months ago)

Tar chuck, Ok, ill give it a withdraw - new things it seems....

Re: New PayPal Withdrawal Window?
 

Sure, but Ive always had the 2 hr window box forever, until today, hence my concerns :)

Re: New PayPal Withdrawal Window?
 

PayPal are just updating by the sounds of it

There was a large about 2 weeks ago as well

A lot of people used to see the 72 hours message when withdrawing, then click back and try again until they got 24 hour / 2 hour message. This would stop that (although its a total guess on my part that that has anything to do with it)

Re: New PayPal Withdrawal Window?
 

Yes this is completely different than the 72 hour window, new interface as well.

I remember the click back trick, thankfully Ive never had a 72 hour window since, however this one is different - have you withdrew from PayPal recently James - might be worth a look as its different that what you are talking about - thats old stuff! :)

Re: New PayPal Withdrawal Window?
 

I understand that bud.

I am saying that this new interface would stop people trying that trick since everyone is now getting the same 0-3 day message instead :)

Re: New PayPal Withdrawal Window?
 

Oh I get you now :)

PayPal going even more Stealth.

They seem to put this new system in when they have some problems, I had it last night also. It was around a few weeks ago also. It does revert back to the original system after a day or two though.

Re: New PayPal Withdrawal Window?
 

Thats what I was wondering - I remember the posts about it a few weeks ago. Should of waited to withdraw as it may of gone through as a BACS 3 day payment now, grrr. Always a lovely morning waking to see what they have thrown at us :)

The Post Office ( /Bank of Ireland)` is on the faster payments system but is a bit of a weird one, it is one of the accounts I withdrew to last night and this morning. They have almost a mixed system.

It isn't as instant as some banks, it takes 2 -4 hours to show in your account. The snag is though it will only show during working hours Mon-Fri 9-5. So if I withdrawal now from paypal it will be in my P.O saver between 2pm and 4pm. The payment I took out around midnight last night is only just in the saver now.

Likewise if I withdrawal from a P.O saver to my nominated account it has to be between Mon-Fri 9-5pm to be there for the next morning. If I was to withdrawal 7p.m on A Saturday night, it wouldn't get there until Tuesday morning.

Coventry is similar, withdrawals from Paypal take 2-4 hours to show BUT these show all around the clock. So a 11p.m Friday night withdrawal from paypal would show in the Coventry account around 1a.m-3a.m Saturday morning. Withdrawals from your nominated account can actually take longer than with the Post Office. If I was to withdrawal at 4p.m Monday it only actually gets released between 9-10a.m the Tuesday morning, so wouldn't clear until between 11.am and 2.pm the next day. The solution to this though is just open up the saver with the cash point card so you can enjoy instant inter-account transfers, and it lets you take out up to £500 a day from an atm.

You actually had the confirmation in the withdrawal email it is a 72hour job? Ouch. The email will tell you the time frame, mine last night said the 2 hours.:uk:

Re: New PayPal Withdrawal Window?
 

Some of the prepaid accounts that you can attach to PayPal are not instant, a couple are but some it's a 72 hour process.

Majority of the large UK banks are on FPS

Re: New PayPal Withdrawal Window?
 

Had this appear on a pp uk account of mine last night too - with all the glitches, I have ceased to worry

Re: New PayPal Withdrawal Window?
 

When everything starts to work without issue I will start to worry!

Not happened yet though :)

Re: New PayPal Withdrawal Window?
 

Just to show how bizarre and random paypal can be I have just withdrawn for first time ever on a stealth, old style window and 2 hr withdrawal. Yet this would be when I would most expect the 72hours.

Re: New PayPal Withdrawal Window?
 

Must be nice to get an instant deposit..

Always US deposits take 2-4 business days to settle. :/

Re: New PayPal Withdrawal Window?
 

Fastest is 1 day......with Chase for me.

Re: New PayPal Withdrawal Window?
 

Even my US accounts don't have instant deposit - wow
