Re: Paypal withdrawal 72hrs later still not cleared
Figure it's a great time to withdraw as there will be so many now over the next day as people have to do it all over again that it means less chance your account gets checked.

No but I never ever do. Only get an email once the stated time period clears to the minute and that email tells me that my money will be in my bank within 2 hours and it always is!

PayPal have issued a hotfix for this problem and any affected withdrawals on the UK site have been cancelled and credited to your balance. This will now show as Refused and you must make the withdrawal again. You may need to wait another 24-72 hours, subject to status.

Your account doesn't get checked anyway before a withdrawal is completed. This "security" hold is nothing more than a timed diversion, to allow for any disputes; limitations or chargebacks to set in before they release your money to you. It is not a human review, hence why it is cleared exactly when they state it will.

I have had a pending withdrawal push through as completed on Christmas Day before, so I am confident weekends and public holidays are irrelevant.
It could be different in America, but that is how it is here, thanks to the Faster Payments system, which runs 24/7.
