I agree with both of you, Peter. I find that when I pay my Wal Mart bill ahead of time on line that Wal Mart holds the payment until the due date.....no matter how early I pay. That way, of course, they get to stretch the interest added on. In my situation only Wal Mart (of course!) does this. Joe B in NOLA

A friend of mine in Europe snet me a payment of several hundred euros. The PayPal system shows that the funds were in the process of being transferred to my bank account, and that the transfer is PENDING. This makes no sense at all. The payment was made by my friend while I was asleep, and I never requested the transfer to my bank account. Another payment was just made by an ebay customer, and it is showing as COMPLETED FUNDS NOT AVAILABLE. Another ebay customer bought from me two days ago and his payment also shows up as COMPLETED FUNDS NOT YET AVAILABLE. i am aware that, from time to time, PayPal holds up a transaction for a day, but this is nothing like that. EIther there is some kind of terrible glitch in the system, or else evil ebay has come up with a new way to screw sellers by holding their money a few extra days. When I try to contact paypal, I get a meaningless automatic message in their so called help chat system. Has any other seller had problems with PayPal this week? And is there any way to actually telephone this company and speak to an actual person who can help with this mess?
