i transferred cash from my paypal to my brother's account last week and it hasn't reflected yet. I did 2 transfers that day and the second one was already credited 2 days ago. i wrote the paypal support team and they reassured me that things are okay and that i should just wait. i am just so worried that the money is lost somewhere :( i really hope it gets through soon.

those kind of transfers can take 3-5 business days to complete, so i wouldn't worry too much until then. after that i would contact the bank and se what is happening on their end and then contact paypal again and let them know something went wrong!! good luck!!

In the "Recent Activity" of your paypal account, you could always find the status of the transaction. If the money isn't transfered from your paypal account to your bank yet, the status will show as "pending". In this case you do not want to worry, because paypal is responsible here and its the clear sign that paypal hasn't done their job yet. But in case, if you get the "COMPLETED" status in your "recent activity", it means that paypal has successfully transfered the money to your bank account and its the bank job to credit you with the money. In this case, you should contact the bank.
