When you pay a company then it is often pending or awaiting authorisation until that company processes your order and captures the pending payment.
If they don't process the order and capture that payment then the pending status times out at 30 days post-payment and returns back to your funding source.

Kudos / Solution appreciated.

Hey @DmitrijKir,
Welcome to our community help forum!
Thanks for the help @kernowlass! As you mentioned that the authorization has disappeared from your PayPal Activity, this would mean that the authorization has expired, and the merchant did not accept it. Therefore, you will not be charged for this order. As this is just a temporary charge, it means you won't see a refund in your bank account. The charge will simply be removed from your bank, and the funds would be returned to your available balance. This should reflect on your bank balance within 72 hours.
I hope this information helps,
Bindu

I ordered this event on 6th of may and money in the bank are still pending and its 12th today.
Basically what happened
I logged in to my paypal. All good
My bank is linked with it. All good
I ordered an event. All good
Transaction gone through. All good
Money gone from my bank account. All good
Showed in Notification bar - its pending. All good
3 days later, disappeared in notification bar that the money are pending. Hmm..OK.
Another 3 days of waiting, logging in to bank acc, still no money back, no event ticket either and nothing on paypal app.
When I used to buy something on paypal, its showed me at least that I have it, like a receipt or something but this time nothing.
I just want that event ticket :))
