    It's better to contact your bank to make sure the information (i.e. rounting #, account #) are accurate. However it might take them a few days to clear the transaction (i.e. check, wiring, etc).

    Did you just add the bank account? At least back then, Paypal will do a "test run" by depositing 2 very small amount of $$$ into the account, and you need to confirm the amount in order to fully active your bank account. Did you complete that yet?

    I have a paypal account and it took the maximum length of time to transfer my money to my account. Wait a few more days then if not, contact paypal.

    I added my bank account last week, and then transferred my paypal money to the bank account 2 days ago, they said the process would take 3-4 days but I saw it say "completed" that's why.. =/

    Completed could mean that the transfer is underway or something of the sort, just wait till the 4th day then you can start complaining to the people about it then.

    that's because we're canadian and paypal is from USA. and somehow they don't like us :D. because we have a better banking system than they do.
