Problems Getting email Payment Confirmations from PayPal?

So far this morning I am missing three email payment confirmations from PayPal.

 

I got the eBay transactions confirmations OK

 

The payments show "paid" in both eBay and PayPal

 

But... no email yet from PayPal.

 

I suggest you check your PayPal account if you are expecting payments this morning from your buyers and rely on those email confirmations to arrange invoicing and shipment.

I too  got PayPal emails for my transactions today, in a timely fashion.

 

But, I would suggest that all is not well in "paradise" (pun intended, qa. -eh!).

 

I had a good day of sales, thanks to one buyer who purchased 8 items, but all of my sales were to the Mountain and Pacific time zones. Unusual!

Of late, I have been an International sales fool (excludes CDN & US). None the last 3 days. 

 

Plus, the fee section of My Account is incredibly slow. 

 

Some transactions taking hours to show up. 

 

Also, I put-up 10 items in the auction format, at around 7 PM MDT and as of 10:30, only six have showed at all, and only 2 of the 10 are completed. I personally can't remember the last time I didn't get charged until hours later.

 

Very disconcerting!

 

All appears to not be well in the land of the cyber giant!

 

I hope this gets sorted out soon.

Eventually received the email from paypal - 8 1/2 hours after the payment.

"Eventually received the email from paypal "

 

Same for me.  Had four payment confirmations from PayPal in my mailbox this morning.  All should have been sent and received yesterday afternoon when buyers made their payment.

 

This "delay in confirming payment" problem has affected ALL payments recently, regardless where they come from (Canada, USA, overseas) or what site the item was sold (eBay.ca, eBay.com) or what currency was used for the payment (US$, Cdn$).

Any one else still noticing long delays in getting Paypal receipts for payments made and payments received.

 

I am sometimes not getting them until the next day.

The PayPal payment confirmation delay started again yesterday and this morning.  It is annoying.

Anyone else getting this message now when trying to log into Paypal as well.

When you pay, it is also leaving you logged in for sometime after the payment is made instead of logging you out automatically.

Have the same problem here. Not able to print the shipping labels, because I can't log in.  Used different browsers.

Just got a confirmation from the 10th. At first I thought I had mailed something without payment, then I remembered, another one of those pesky delays.

Still none from this morning. Sure wish they would get their together and fix this issue. I guess they have taken too many lessons from Ebay.

 

Don't fix what is broke, just keep on trucking with more changes and let the users pay and suffer.
