Hi. I would like to know how long it will take for my money to be in my actual bank account? I know this has been asked many times but here is what I dont understand so you lease read on. To confirm my account they debited 1 pence instantly and this verified the account as legit. SO IF THEY CAN DO THAT INSTANTLY THEN WHY CANT THEY GIVE ME MY MONEY INSTANTLY THROUGH THE SAME METHOD? The money is in paypal pending payment into my account for who knows how long, but they can instantly, within minutes make the account verification transaction. whats the difference? It could be done instantly but they take days. so my question in basic terms is, why can they debit money for verification instantaneously but not when paying out? its 30 pound I want its hardly gonna case a multi million doller company much to give me my 30 poxy quid.

I have noticed you have answered this question with this wrong answer on a few threads. please can you just answer questions that you know are correct and not just anwering with random numbers.

Normally 2-24 hours in the UK unless you have an email stating you have a 72 hour random security hold when it may take up to the 3 days.

 

But that is not the norm.

 

If its longer than there may be ongoing paypal issues that i can't possibly be aware of.

I give advice only and you can take it or leave it.

 

Maybe you will believe a mod??

Hi rosie12,

 

Thank you for posting and welcome to the Community Forum!

 

Please don't worry.

 

When you make a withdrawal, the longest time frame will be displayed, however usually the transactions are processed much faster (2 hours). It may happen that a withdrawal is held for a security review for maximum 72 hours, however this is very rare and you would be notified about this via email.   

 

Once you can see that the withdrawal status shows as 'Completed', it indicated the funds were sent to your bank.

 

Hope it helps.

Anna
