    Hi Guys would love some help on this

    Right opened a account had 2 Sums of £50 paid into my account

    I spent £95 on a item

    10 min later had a phone call asked for my partner i asked who it was and they wouldnt tell me as she was on the loo i said she was on the loo ok they said they would contact us again

    Checked are paypal and they had limited our account and were holding the £95 payment i had just made,because i needed the item i collected it and paid cash for it as the seller would not release the item without the cleared paypal funds wich i understand

    Now for a week i have been trying to get paypal to refund me the £95 back into my paypal account so i can offer refunds to the buyers

    After numerous phone calls from me and the seller i still cannot get the money back into my account

    Because i have not refunded the buyers for there £50 they are threating me with the police

    My problem is why should i refund out of my pocket or send the goods out if i cant get the money from paypal, all i want to do is offer a refund to these poor people but i cant

    The way i look at it is i havent recieved the money for the items paypal have and should be accountable for the money not me

    Should i let the buyers take it up with the police and paypal?


    Thxs

    Just to add that paypal have told my seller and my buyers to contact the police as they have not had any contact from me but i have a statement from my phone company with numerous phone calls to paypal on
    Excuse me sounding a bit pedantic..but if you had written a little more slowly,using correct English,and at least a couple of commas here and there,people would be able to help more. :confused:
    Its so hard to figure out what you are actually trying to say. I get it now, but agree with former comment, you have 2 issues here, the first is your buyers should have had thier items sent immediately, then you would get your PP money and you would be able to spend it on the bike. What was it that you sold? anything high risk? When they receive the item and leave + fb you will get your money.
    If it is your partners account, she should be calling up and sorting it,to confirm who she is.
    TO FINISH LAST, FIRST YOU HAVE TO FINISH....
  • That first post makes for confusing reading!! Doesn't make much sense & you managed to confuse everyone.
    I still don't get why you haven't sent/delivered the Freeads stuff to the 2 x £50 people, they've paid you & you've gone & spent it on a bike?!! Not their problem!!
