Had anyone else had awful experience with Paypal ? I called to confirm my transaction will be in my account today ( transfer from bank to Paypal by mistake) it’s been a week and my account was updated and stated my money will be in my balance 9th Feb. So I called to just confirm. As it still wasn’t. To be told there is no funds and a error with my bank. I spent nearly an hr on the phone with my bank to be told no error funds has 100% been taken by Paypal and 100% has cleared its there issue. Upon calling back I had issue after issue with poor service. I then demanded a manager and a supervisor came who too was poor with customer service and admitted to me the advisor earlier should of never told me to contact my bank. ( so admitted I wasted 2hrs in total with Paypal and my back in calls) I then told her I want to make a complaint she told me to do it online. I said no I want to speak to someone. She refused. So I demanded a manager she refused I told me she is the last point I can give my complaint to her. But my complaint involved her due to how I was spoken to like I’m retarded. She continued to refuse any managers spoke down to me. And I got nowhere. I got sooo distressed from the issue when I only called to confirm and left with panic my money was lost.

Transfers from banks to paypal take 5-7 working days in the UK.
The date they give you is an estimate as different banks have different processing times.

Kudos / Solution appreciated.

As i said the dates given are an estimate and 5-7 working days = 7-9 calender days.
You just have to wait it out, keep phoning them doesn't make any difference as they can't hurry it up.
Paypal are not holding on to it, they use the cheapest transfer method which after leaving your bank account goes via the ACH before it hits paypal.
