Hi there,

While buying bitcoins, I used to have 21 days pending when someone sends me the funds to my PayPal account, and now they got increased to 30 pending days.

Those funds stay in my pending balance (I won't be able to withdraw them or send them to someone else) unless the 30 days time pass which makes it very insecure for me since I'm trading Bitcoin (irreversible).

Till now, no one chargebacked, and I didn't get any issues but having the funds in pending makes me worried for a whole month...

I want to know your experiences with this Pending crap (that I never had before) and how I can remove it? I searched little bit and found that I should sell in eBay or shit ?? which doesn't make much sense since AFAIK ... PayPal and eBay are not related anymore.


Your account has been verified? perhaps the send of money has yet to confirm the transaction so it will never be complete, try to contact the person who sent the money and ask to checking email.
His account is presumably not verified since they said that they don't have a bank account.

Not long ago I tried working as a transcriber online and noticed all the companies that offered me work were paying with paypal, and since my country is not paypal supported, I stopped looking along that angle.

Most online companies use paypal not skrill, so I don't really need skrill even though it supports my country.

Why don't you use Skrill because fees are almost the same and they don't leave any funds pending as long as you have done all of the verification they request. When I sell coins now in exchanges I always opt out to receive money in Skrill as I can withdraw them as soon as they hit me there. Its much better than Paypal but now they have implement a new law in which if you don't use your account for 6 months you pay 16 EURO penalty but I think this is something that can be avoided easily. Just do a 5 USD or 5 Eur transaction every month. Skrill is truly much better than Paypal.

I was never able to verify my Skrill account and there isn't enough information's about the process in the web unlike PayPal otherwise I would've use it.

I don't know what country you are from but for me in Italy they only asked to verify my credit cards as I use 2 of them and everything is OK . I receive payments instantly now on Skrill which is great. Once I receive I can withdraw. You just have to give back to Skrill the code from your bank statement which verify the card you are holding. Ask the bank after 2-3 days after you do the transaction and the code should have already showed up. Its easy.

I have an account and I'm from Algeria but I'm not sure how I should verify it exactly ?
I'm only able to make 2500$ transactions in total unless I'm verify the account , there is a Verify button near my phone number too , but I don't receive SMS at all so not sure how I should rise the limits .

It'll be more a case of the sender of the funds being under suspicion than the receiver. If Paypal suspect that the funds were sent from a stolen card or a hacked account or something, if they make them pending, you can't then use them to buy goods/services etc. so if it turns out they were from a fraudulent source, they only need to reverse one transaction... which unfortunately, is the one into your account. It keeps things nice and simple.

Imagine if person A received $1000 from a stolen credit card payment... then they bough 5 things from 5 different people... and they then spent the money on 2 things each... and one of those people spent the money on something... it would be a total mess to try and "fix" if Paypal discovered that this $1000 was stolen and got charged back.

So they leave it "pending" for 30 days, to see if any complaints are made before releasing the funds... the simple solution is only deal with trustworthy people who aren't running scams or stealing money etc Tongue
That is why I said it is usually the sender that is question because you as the receiver knows if your funds and transactions are legitimate and since you are using a verified account then you have nothing to worry about when your account has funds with held. You don't know where those funds that were sent to you originated from. ISIS or Nigerian Prince  Huh You don't know. To be safe next time only accept payments from verified paypal accounts. But sometimes they even take money from accounts that are not verified and that money is sent to you so they will investigate whom they sent the money out too. To fund terrorist organizations is one thing that they are looking out for instance. Undecided

Those funds stay in my pending balance (I won't be able to withdraw them or send them to someone else) unless the 30 days time pass which makes it very insecure for me since I'm trading Bitcoin (irreversible).

Till now, no one chargebacked, and I didn't get any issues but having the funds in pending makes me worried for a whole month...

I want to know your experiences with this Pending crap (that I never had before) and how I can remove it? I searched little bit and found that I should sell in eBay or shit ?? which doesn't make much sense since AFAIK ... PayPal and eBay are not related anymore.



they do it for security purposes. in my country was always instant. I believe that after 30 days you will be able to use your money.
Just have patience

I guess you guys didn't understand me , my account is not limited or locked or anything, only transactions (that I receive) gets to Pending for 30 days then I'm able to use them. that's what I'm asking , there is no"restoring account" or anything else.
I just want to know If it's possible to take this 30 days pending off ? by doing many transactions or something like that ?
well mate this is really usual thing in paypal,your balance is pending because it's looks suspicious for them, I guess it's before you're making transaction that is related to cryptocurrency and it's bitcoin,sometimes they're doing this shit and it's pointless,there's so damn many the same cases out there

It's Verified with both Neteller (MasterCard) and E-coin (Visa card) so It should be verified and working just fine , I asked the sender and he said he don't have anything.



Usually when this happens it is not the receiver who is in question but the sender who paypal is investigating. This is from my experience.
If your paypal is clean and has not been involved with any strange activity then you have nothing to worry about and just wait out the 30 days.  Embarrassed


I'm pretty sure It has something to do with me and not the sender , why would they investigate my money If it's the sender is under investigation ...
It happens often (It's not only with one sender but severals ones) , so there is no way to remove it ? (from your experience )

I think your problem is too much because you make a transaction in a short time. so it is indeed paypal gives sufficient security tight for each account. Maybe you can complain to the CS Paypal. Because that's all you can do if you want to quickly restore your account

I also think that the problem is in too many transactions in too short time. I didn't have problem with pending transactions but PayPal once blocked my account and I couldn't make the payment because the transaction was much bigger then my usual once so that was suspicious to them. Such things angry us and seems to be annoying but they are actually good for the security. And when I contacted them and explained the situation they unblocked my account so maybe is solution to contact the Paypal support.

Why dont you try to contact the support so that you can know about the problem and they know that you are not other people are your account is not hack.. just let them know about your issue.. they can explain it well. honestly never had this issue.. but i hope it will not happen to me.

Pending balance is just like balance for paypal to use in between those lock down periods and their fee structure really sucks normal users and merchants. And how they froze account for more than 6 month in name of investigation is really a shit. Bitcoin is far more better than paypal by all means.

i never got any pending, and i am using paypal for a long time.  if you are afraid of scams, better sell these bitcoins via your bank account or credit card, so you will avoid pending

I don't have a Bank account and credit cards like Payoneer can be chargebacked (not sure about Neteller though).

You can ask the sender of the funds that he goes to his PayPal account and clicks/confirm that he got the items and it will be released in a couple of minutes, this is how I do it on eBay I sell edu mails there and have still this 21 days hold, I tell the buyers to confirm they got it, and my money is not on hold anymore after a few moments. the next alternative is that you call PayPal and explain to them the money was for a virtual service or digital goods and they may release them, this trick worked many times in my case

I already thought of that , and asked the sender to do that but he said there is no such a button . Besides,  sometimes the process is automatic instead of manual trading & speaking to the buyers.
