I just really need my money desperately to pay my school fees and ps: it says in my paypal account the the transaction is already completed. what does it mean? hope you can help me regarding this issue,

Hi peachyglaze1993,
Welcome to our community page.
I understand this situation can be annoying. Funds will return to your PayPal balance if you entered wrong bank account details.
I hope this info helps.

Hi peachyglaze1993,
Yes, I would wait a little bit longer. 30 days is the longest timeframe for funds to be returned back to your PayPal balance if they are rejected by your bank.
Please let us know after this timeframe if you are still not seeing the funds returning and we will be happy to run a trace.

Hi rhazoriente,
Thank you for posting and welcome to the Community Forum!
I’m very sorry to hear about the situation.
As you can read in Siobhan’s answer, the funds will come back to your card, however it may take even 30 days. I’m very sorry for any inconvenience caused. For the future I would recommend you to add the bank account before you are about to initiate a withdrawal. Here is how to add a bank account: http://ow.ly/TQF6I and withdraw funds: http://ow.ly/TQFue.
Hope it helps.

Hello Good day!!,
We have the same case with peachyglaze1993, I entered my car number instead my account number, it says 16 digits, and my account number is only 10 digits, so I entered my card number coz its 16 digits. In that case I haven;t recieve any money on my bank account, what will I do to get back or transfer it to my account number. Its 5 days now and I need it for my school bills this week. Please help me to figure it out.
Thanks a lot!
