Paypal withdrawal 3-4 working days

mjt530 · #1 02-19-2016

Hi

Paypal withdrawal was instant now saying 3-4 days.

I know theres an old thread on this but just wondered if anyone had encountered this in the last few days. This account is doing really well, limts lifted, instant withdrawals etc..

Many thanks

It just happens sometimes. When you say 3/4 days, are you getting the 72 hour message? generally this happens if you have made a few large withdrawals recently or any other out of the ordinary pattern on your account

Usually it drops back down to instant after a few weeks

Hi James

Nothing out of the ordinary at all. I always withdraw frequently and never take out a large amount really. The account is very busy but has been this past few months. No big jump in income in income recently. Its been steady for about 3 months.

Give it a few weeks

Let any withdraws clear before requesting a new one

Chances are it should reduce again overtime

Its strange as its not the usual 3-5 working days message as it states 3-4 working days.

Thanks for your replies.

I withdrew the other day and it quoted 72 hours, but it was in my account in 24 hours.
Then the next withdrawal after that was 2 hours again.

Just got this email:

You asked us to transfer 50.00 GBP from your PayPal balance to your bank account, and we're processing it now. It usually takes 2-3 working days for transfers like this to be processed, so you should see the money in your bank account by 24 Feb 2016. Please refer to the PayPal User Agreement (accessible via the Legal link in the footer on most pages on www.paypal.co.uk) for further information.

Never had this before.

Thanks for your help!

I'm getting this too. On 2 different stealth accounts. They've changed/updated their withdrawal page with the new look. I'm a bit confused but am glad to see I'm not the only one as I thought I messed up somewhere

Hopefully we'll get our funds sooner!

Its not that normal message...... its a different one.

I got it on an old account I not logged into for a couple of months and went to withdraw only 15 squid.

Personally, I not had that message on any other accounts, so I am wondering if it is something new as it is not that normal message when it says 24 hrs pending / 72 hours pending etc.

Last time this happened there was a problem with the faster payments system and after a few days it went back to normal, i had the same thing today also..

Also, WTF is this supposed to mean...?

"Before you withdraw, check out the benefits of keeping a PayPal balance."

It doesn't actually list any benefits, and besides, **** you Paypal.

Are Paypal having some financial troubles as this just seems strange.

Don't worry about instant withdrawal - if it comes in a few days, just be happy to receive the money

I think this is a new withdraw setup on PP, ive never seen this before. even on my aged accounts etc its all new not the same withdraw pages as usual

batts09 · #14 02-20-2016

Definitely new... It defaults to "bank transfers take 3-4 working days depending on your bank" BEFORE even selecting an amount.

It looks like trying different withdraw amounts to dictate the withdrawal time workaround maybe up :(

mirza93 · #15 02-20-2016

It says completed now but I haven't received the funds in my bank account :(
Normally it shows up instantly

Happened to me before into my tesco account said completed, but can take up to 2 hours - when in actual fact it took another 24 hours. Ill tell you it was squeeky bum time lol

I would think PP will back-off long holds after the big lawsuit and all. they might be more apt to stay course.

I tried earlier this evening and transferred some money and it is back to normal now and was in my account straight away.

if you withdraw often ( more than once in a week) the withdrawal times can change.
