Paypal Help!!

[vvblazers777 10+ year member]

Alright guys, so I did something really stupid. I wasn't thinking and sold something on here. Well it turns out, I typed in the wrong addy for my paypal to him. He sent it, and it said they wasn't registered yet, but went through I think. Is there anyway to cancel that payment?

I have done this too, He should be able to cancel it, without calling, i just cant remember how to do it..

The person he sent it to has to accept the payment I thought. He should be able to retreive the payment if it has not been completed. If is has gone through, contact PayPal and explain.

This is what i found on paypal:

Question :

I sent money to the wrong email address, but the payment is completed. What do I do?

Answer :

A PayPal cannot reverse payments that have been claimed. We recommend that you contact your recipient directly and make arrangements to have the money refunded to you via PayPal or another method of your choosing.

If its gone through you have to contact the people how got it. Maybe the guy who sent can make a claim.

If not claimed :

Question :

Can I cancel a payment that I've already sent?

Answer :

A You can cancel only unclaimed payments. If your payment is complete, please contact the recipient of the payment to request a refund.

Unclaimed payments can be canceled for the following reasons:

* A payment sent to an email address is not associated with a PayPal account. Once the email address is added to a PayPal account, the payment is automatically credited to the balance of that account.

* A payment is sent to a recipient with an unconfirmed email address. For security reasons, PayPal can only credit payments sent to a confirmed email address.

If you cancel an eCheck payment or Instant Transfer, PayPal cannot cancel the withdrawal from your bank account. The amount will be credited to your PayPal account balance.

Well the payment was sent to a non-registered email, so I'm guessing it hasn't been accepted yet?

Here's How:

1. Click theMy Account tab.

2. Click the History subtab.

3. Click Cancel in the Action column of the transaction in question.

4. Click Cancel Payment.

5. You have successfully canceled the payment.
