hold inquiry

[cat349]

If I receive cash deposited to my account (not sale related, just a transfer of funds), does paypal put a hold on those funds? If so how long before I can access my money?

Sent using friends/family?

Send using goods/services? 

Funds added by bank account?

Have you set up a balance account?

Have you set up the auto direct bank transfer?

If so the funds shouldn't go on hold but sometimes paypal may 'review' payments.
