Yo start off I am a student and I use online earning sites to make some side money , like so I got payment from different site except for a particular site, they say payment is completed but my balance was updated yet. "I thought it may be some server issue why not wait 1 day" but now it has been 2 days this is my 3rd day still no updation of my balance. According to my knowledge I think the site is an European establishment, so any one kindly help me to get my payment. And it is huge amount to. (4000$) . My hard earned 5 months result is that amount please any one.

Huge amounts can trigger all sorts of unexpected consequences but I don't think the lack of a transction is one of them.   The lack of a transaction means there is none.  I think there is a problem with the initiation of the transaction, whoever did it.

If there were an issue about the amount you would see the transaction with restrictions.

Large amounts can trigger an investigation into your your own account and limit your account when PayPal asks for documentation about the reason for the large transfer.  There can be holds before money is released.  Your PayPal activities can be investigated to make sure your ID is accurate.   Limitations would prevent withdrawal of funds.

Never heard of that site, but the explanation just doesn't seem like a real business.  What did yo actually do to merit any compensation?  My guess is the problem is with the web site.  If they are a legitimat business make a phone call to find out what is going on.
