Title: Paypal in "held" funds status... how long till i get my funds? Post by: Xenland on July 06, 2012, 07:00:48 PM Okay so I made and order that is less than $200 from spend bitcoins to paypal and paypal is investaging money sent to me..... and it says the money is held and under the status says "Pending review from paypal"
Is this common/expect? Title: Re: Paypal in "held" funds status... how long till i get my funds? Post by: cncguru on July 06, 2012, 08:25:54 PM I've had a few payments from buyers end up in that same review and they have all cleared within 24hrs(so far) Why exactly or what they are "reviewing" I have no idea.

I believe that can happen if the buyer is using a PayPal account where there is no bank account linked to it. There are some trades I've done where I was informed in advance by the (trusted) buyer that this would happen -- and sure enough it did get placed "under review" and then in under 24 hours after the transaction the funds were released. I know that SpendBitcoins had the problem recently where they had to re-verify identity, so perhaps PayPal treated it similarly as not having a linked account.
