Here in the US, it has taken up to 5 days, but I normally get the money in 2-3 days.

What paypal says is pretty accurate, which is 3-5 days.

2-3 business days if you do it before 4pm us eastern standard time.

Depends on different factors which include country, day of the week, time of day....

I get transfers from USA paypal to Australian bank within 72 hours.
USA to UK bank about the same.

Australian paypal to Australian bank 4 days. etc etc.

Colt, pending to complete is also related to risk.

If for example you sell £400 worth of goods and try to withdraw it immediately, you pending status can be extended.

I know that once a buyer is happy with the item and leaves a good feedback the funds can go from pending to complete within 2 minutes (I have seen this myself) and then take only 2 days to hit the bank account.

Mine go from pending to complete in around 5 mins on paypal's website. The actual funds go in to my account in 2 working days (3 on my Santander account).
