How long is transfer from Paypal to Bank

Hi I sold a couple of things on Ebay last week and was paid via my Paypal account, I requested the money last Thursday, the website says allow approx 5-7 days for money to reach my account, I just wondered if anybody has ever received it quicker than this or what is the average time span, i bank with Natwest.:huh:

    So last Tuesday's transfer arrived yesterday.

    Paypal used to have a little chart showing the day of withdrawal & the day it would arrive, although I cannot find it at the moment

    When it says 5 - 7 days I think they mean working days.

    It varies though I've noticed. Sometimes it has only been about 4 days for me and other times about 7.
    Comping again

    yes but it depends on the level that your paypal account is at.. if you have the £500 seller protection on the account and you have further verified (over the £5000 mark) it is a lot quicker to trasnfer the cash out into your bank.

    My transfers usually take around 5-6 working days.
