    Thanks very much, I'm hoping it's automated but just know it's on the way makes me feel a lot better, I've kept my buyers informed and so hopefully the feedback and DSR's won't be as bad as they might...!

    Also had this back literally a few mins ago after contacting them through twitter:

    Dear XXXXXXXXXXXXX

    Thank you for contacting PayPal, my name is Michelle and I am with
    PayPal's Executive Escalations. I sincerely apologise for the
    frustration this matter has caused. I have reviewed your Account and
    would like to offer the following information in response to your
    enquiry.

    You attempted to withdraw XXXXX GBP via a Quick Withdrawal and paid a
    £5.00 GBP fee to withdraw the funds via that method. Due to an issue
    with this type of bank transfer this withdraw was pending from 30 March
    2010 to 2 April 2010.

    We deeply regret the obvious inconvenience this situation has created.
    We are crediting back the £5.00 GBP fee you paid for the withdrawal. You
    should see the funds in your bank account within the next one to two
    days.

    Again, I sincerely apologise for any inconvenience this situation has
    caused. Please feel free to contact me directly at [EMAIL="xxx@paypal.com"]xxx@paypal.com[/EMAIL] if
    you have any further questions or concerns.

    Sincerely,
    Michelle
    Executive Escalations
    PayPal, an eBay Company

    The 'issue' interests me, wonder what it is. Also it appears the higher you go the better the customer service is with Paypal.

    i had to read that twice then to make sure there wasnt something at the bottom from paypal saying they were gonna charge you another £5 to have your £5 creditied back in 1 - 2 days.
    :TIs thankful to those who have shared their :T
    :T fortune with those less fortunate :T
    :T than themselves - you know who you are!

    Finally arrived this morning. I woke up at 6 (or rather I was got up at 6 by the dog to let him out) and checked then and nothing - checked 5 mins ago and it's there! Posting here I come...! :)

    Thanks for all your help.


    [Should say, no sign of the fiver refund as yet]
