I made a withdrawal from my paypal account last monday 31/7/ and the payment has not yet arrived in my bank account monday 7/8.
I have made withdrawals before but I have not known it take so long to reach my account as this.

Is it time to chase it up?

    There are some major glitches at paypal lately... could be delaying things. See the thread further down.

    I usually do mine on a Thursday, they show in my bank the following Wednesday. If I do it any other day it takes longer, I don't know why?

    Mine have always taken 5 working days, I normally withdraw on a sunday and have it in the bank on the friday. What time in the day did you make the transaction, as if it was late in the day it might be classed as being processed the following day.

    I did the transfer at 9.30pm on the 31st. I'll give it until Wednesday and then chase it up.
    thanks again for your help.
