12 days and still zero funds in my Paypal account!

I made a bank funds transfer into my Paypal account to pay a seller and it still isn't processed 12 days later!!! Has anyone else been having this delay problem? I called Paypal 5 days ago and they're blaming the delay on the holidays...But come on already! I have never made a payment later than 12 hours after winning with my bid. Grrrrr!

You don't have to transfer money from your bank account into your paypal account to pay your sellers.

 

Paypal does it automatically for you when you pay.

Don't get all huffy about this suggestion, but why not attach a credit card to your PP account and pay from there?

Your payments will be truly instant, with no delay for either transfers like the one you are doing nor clearing two banking systems.

You can pay at your leisure, or immediately if you don't want to pay interest.

You have a second line of appeal should a transaction go pear-shaped. Your cc has a Chargeback policy protecting you. Paying from a bank balance or from a PP balance offers no such protection.

(The last reason is why PP doesn't push using a credit card very hard. They may decide in favour of the seller, and then have the money taken from them by the cc company. PP then has to chase the seller for reimbursement. )
