I tried this new instant transfer option for the first time yesterday because I needed the funds in my account ASAP. I even paid the small fee to do it. Well, it's not 24 hours later and the funds never showed up. They are not showing up as pending either on my card/account. The funds are no longer available in my PayPal account either. So I paid a little extra to get these funds 'immediately' (max stated was 30 mins) and now I'm stuck with them not avaialble basically anywhere for me. This is VERY frustrating! If they do not show up by Monday morning I'm going to get very worried. I highly recommend PayPal users be highly leary of this new service, it did not work correctly for me! I guess I should have just used the old method of tranfering to my bank account, it looks like it'll take at least as long now using this method and I paid a fee for nothing.
If I'm missing something here let me know. If you've experienced the same thing post about it too, maybe PayPal will fix this service or at least stop offering it / make a BOLD easy to need statment when you chose it that the funds might not show up in your account for days anyway with this 'instant' option.
