I have Paypal problems! Why is it taking so long for the money to transfer?

Question

I am trying to transfer money from my bank account to my Paypal account and its taking so long! I tried transferring a couple days ago, and now the wait is up to the 26th of August, and the one I did on the thirteenth says to wait until tomorrow! Isn't Paypal supposed to take 3-5 business days? Why is it taking so long????

Answer 1

It's tricky - it takes no time at all to transfer money from your Paypal to your bank account, but when it's the other way around it can take lots longer. It depends on your bank - some banks take longer to verify and confirm the transfer of funds, and sometimes that can be delayed - especially if you don't do it that often.

Did you make sure the routing info was correct, and your name etc on the account was verified? I know they can hold it up for simple clerical errors like that.
