Have sent an e-mail to PayPal, but don't expect a quick reply.
Paid out about 30 small PayPal friends and family payments last night, prizes from my Cyclocross race. All are marked sent in the app, but haven't gone from my Monzo account which should show them instantly. Monzo said they aren't showing in their systems either. Paid direct from the bank account rather than the debit card. Anyone have an insight?
Are you sure you didn't have a positive balance in Paypal, eg, from having sold something?
I’m not sure it always comes straight out - maybe a long term user?
I had one the other week, £1600 went abroad and it was out of my PayPal and into their bank 3 days before it appeared on my statement.
Definitely no balance in there! 🤣 I've never known money get to the recipient before leaving my account before, always the other way round so they have the benefit of it for a couple of days. Someone is loosing out at the moment.
I'll ring them on Friday if it's not straightened itself out. Cheers.
It might be pending internal fraud check especially if you are not in the habit of making 30 separate payments. I bet its easier to sort out some internal balance figures than refund a fraudulent transaction to your bank.
I bought a bike using F&F last week, took days to show in my bank account. I wouldn't be too concerned
Good point Spooky. The PayPal website kept popping up a robot check tool, and even had me verify my identity with a text message pin number at one point.
It has always taken a few days for PayPal payments to show up in my bank account, PayPal doesn't show up in my pending transactions in my online banking app either.
Aye it would flag up as anomalous activity for sure so it's likely some fraud checks. Sit tight for a while and maybe get hold of a friendly recipient to see if they've received such that you can reset expectation with other recipients of necessary.
PayPal replied!
Apparently they pay immediately and the banking process takes a few working days to settle. I just know I'm going to get 30 notifications binging though at 1 minute past midnight in the next day or so, and it'll wake me up like an alarm. 🙂
