PayPal: Delayed availability - this option is available

You want to have a PayPal payment debited from your account or make a payment, but it is not possible? Then it is because this amount is protected by delayed availability. We will show you your options.

This is what you need to know about PayPal's delayed availability

PayPal uses this option to protect you and other customers. This is to fix problems faster. There are several reasons that can lead to delayed availability. These include:

• Many complaints or credit card chargebacks in the past
• Negative reviews of transactions on Ebay
• A higher than average shipping time for items
• Too many cancelled payments
• The type of product sold
• Your number of transactions has increased significantly in a short period of time
• You have only just set up your account - PayPal cannot yet judge your behavior as a customer
• Instructions from the company involved: This can happen if you have a complicated business relationship with the company in question.
• The T&Cs of a platform, for example Ebay or Amazon Marketplace, prescribe this procedure.

How long does this condition last?

PayPal gives you after 21 days to access your money back. However, it can last longer if you have received many buyer complaints. Then often the money can only be accessed after the return period has expired. You can speed up the process if you forward the tracking ID to PayPal for shipping.
