I don't really use PayPal much due to fees etc and prefer to use bank transfers where possible.
I have supposedly been sent a payment via PayPal for some items I am selling, the payment was sent around 1900hrs last last night but nothing has shown I'm my account.
Is this normal? I have asked for a transaction reference or screen shot for my piece of mind but just wondered if anyone who uses PayPal more often could advise?
Thanks  |

| It should appear pretty much instantaneously. Ask the person to check what email they have sent it to as 9 times out of 10 it will be a mistake with that. The sender can cancel the payment and resend at any time. |

Thanks Andy, will ask them to double check the address,
The sender has said it can take 2-3 days to show up but I can't see why from reading the PayPal page |

| No reason for that whatsoever. The whole point of PayPal is that it's instant payments... |

| Should add there is the echeque method which does take time to clear but you would still be notified immediately if this method has been used. Just like a normal cheque it takes 3-4 days for the funds to clear but they would still show in your PayPal account as uncleared. |

Its possible that the funds weren't available to be drawn, if that's the case the sender could assume it has gone through, but may have received an email from a different paypal address which gets dumped into his junk file.
If the transaction is successful they would've received a mail saying payment sent which they can always forward to you. |
