Got an email from Paypal.....

 

Dear Tony Bradley,

 

Jap Parts (car_parts@btinternet.com) has issued you a full or partial refund for your payment.

 

Temporary Hold Information: A temporary hold has been placed on funds that were returned to your account because you used Instant Bank Transfer to fund the original payment. The funds from this payment cannot be released until they have arrived from your bank account, which usually takes three to four working days.

 

 

Message from merchant: Hi Tony

 

We have to refund your payment for this item as we have none in stock, we were expecting them in an order today but they did not turn up, we will have them in again and if you still require it we will give you free postage.

 

Regards

Now PayPal want to charge £0.25 for refunding the money to my bank

 

So I don't get the goods, the money has been out of my account for nearly two weeks and I get charged 25p for having sent back !

 

Crap service

from some of the paypal horror stories iv heard and experienced... id say your lucky!

 

25p down and the prospect of free postage on the item you tried to buy... things could be worse! :D

Oh noes not 25p!

should count youself lucky lol my mate bought a nokia n95 8GB paid £280 received a fake chinese copy and didnt get a penny back after complaining to ebay and paypal.

Hmmm, 25p for a transfer out of your account, having the money held for 2 weeks, then placed back into your account and you have the hump why exactly???

 

You do know paypal are a business that run to make money dont you?

 

If you asked abank to handle that transaction for you you'll be charged £25 quid at least. Think you should be well happy with 25p mate.

Rubbish! I've never paid to transfer money unless is was by CHAPS or international - and now it's FPS, it's an instant transaction with no fee! The point is the seller should pay the fees as it's his fault.

lol

 

ok then, go ask your bank to arraing for money to come out your account then two weeks later ask them to put it back in and do it for free, see what they say ;)

PayPal charge everyone to have money paid to them, They dont charge anyone to pay money out just to have money paid in. I have had this happen to me on a few occasions and IMO its a small price to pay for the service. Nothing is free :)
