help paypal payment to wrong email address - Urgent

nicky7200

hi, i made a mistake when listing and I typed in the wrong address for paypal payment to be sent to, and they have paid to that. The address though hasnt been set up so I dont think anyone has actuaaly received it.
Is there anything I can do, or can the seller cancel that payment and then resend it?
am worried as I dont want to loose my feedback on this.
thanks nicky

yep just get the sender to cancel the payment and resend it - it will be showing as unclaimed in their paypal account.
You can also add extra email addresses to your paypal account I believe you can have up to 5.
So you could set up the new email address (I take it that it's one from your ISP) and then just claim the payment.

thankyou so much greeneye, I had no idea you could do that, I have asked them to cancel it and resend it, i had no idea you could have more than one address to paypal.
you've been a great help

What greenyeye said! LOL! It happened to my Mum and she got into a panic but the buyer was absolutely fine about it.
