Paypal - Payment Pending ?

[mokeybear70]

Hi Forum,

Just needing some advice, I brought an item today and paid by paypal, usually it comes straight up as paid but this time it said payment pending, I checked and the money had come out of my account, I messaged the seller and told her what had happened and could she check her side, she hasnt received any money yet, I just checked my paypal account and it says seller is unregistered, do I need to ask her to do something, excuse all my ignorance, I just buy normally and dont delve into much so I have no idea how paypal works :8} but would like to pay my seller 🙂

tarsh556, you have dragged up a 13 month old thread.

Somehow I don't think the OP will be back to see your answer.

It is my opinion Paypal is holding the money to make interest on our money before paying sellers. this way they double dip. they charge the seller a fee and earn interest on the millions they transact through their systems for buyers.

I'm even more sure if the OP didn't come back after 13 months, they won't be back after another 18.

This thread is now over 2 1/2 YEARS old.

I have made payment for a order and keep getting that payment is pending I have money on my card I have made payment for the order a number of times saying that payment is needed also no response from the seller as I have made contact with a number of times as for previous orders I have never had any trouble

Payment pending usually means that the payment was funded from a bank account which takes a few days to clear.

Please tell me you have not paid again???
