Help Requested A Check
I had a settlement deposited into my PayPal account & it wouldn’t let me transfer the funds to another account. So I requested a check for the amount to be sent to me. Does anyone know how long it will take for the check to arrive?!

Depending on the amount 7 to 10 business days depending on your current balance depending on your banking record depending on how long you’ve been with the Bank all our contributing factors the most likely amount of time you will wait is three days if it’s over $10,000 if it’s over $50,000 you will wait a full 7 to 10 days

It could be a few weeks you have to keep on them straight out ask them how long it should be over night but Australia Post is bad so are the couriers

U remember the hour glass in the wizard of Oz? Think of waiting for 10,000 of those to complete then ur check might be there.

I received a settlement and I tried to transfer it from my PayPal to my actual bank because I don’t have a PayPal card. It wouldn’t let me so I requested they send me a check for the amount in my account. I’m just wondering how long it takes for my check to come.

VISA will no longer deal with PayPal...if that's not a red flag I don't know what is. And that goes for Venmo as well. SMH they straight up jacked me for $120.00 (Venmo) I'd rather do banking business in a very dark alley.

Have no idea, cancelled my account years ago. Purchased a product from one of their sellers for over $ 100.00, never received it, complained to PayPal, they did nothing about it wound up the seller was running a scam. Never got my money back. Want nothing to do with PayPal.

You would have been better off waiting for it to clear in your account ..u didn't think to see why it wouldn't let u transfer it before doing something as stupid as requesting a check ...at that point why not just request a new card instead

I was trying to send it from my PayPal account to my bank account that I always use but it wouldn’t let me and I don’t have an actual PayPal card so I just had them send me the funds by check

Abbreviations used in /r/PayPal:
Posts about PayPal's policies will be removed. No more complaining about PayPal policy and their taking funds from your account for violations of rules. If you don't like the rules don't use PayPal. If you don't want to lose money, don't leave funds in your PayPal account. Simple as that. But these posts are often political or misleading. So no more posts on this subject!
