When did you do the credit process to Paypal? It can take from a few hours to more than two weeks. Check the Process Credit History page to see if it has actually been processed and if so when it was processed. If it shows that it has been processed and Paypal has not received it you will need to contact LL billing.

I believe that there is a few days of latency until the money really shows up in the Paypal account.

This thread ... /327/42/205834/1.html ... seems to corroborate this.

So I'd recommend to be patient and stay put for a few more days.

Weeks? Please tell me you're not serious. That would have to be about the most ridiculous thing I've heard.

The only time I did it, it took 2 weeks for the US$ to hit Paypal, then another 7 days to reach my bank account.

I'm in the UK, and we have an interbank clearing operation here that magically takes money from your account the day you hit the enter key... yet it takes up to 4 days to end up in the receiving account. Go figure....

You've obviously not heard very many ridiculous things:

I've never seen it get sent in the same day of processing. If you put in your request today, I'd think Wednesday, but because of the US holiday on Monday it might even be a day later.

I always try to put in the request on Monday/Tuesday to get it by Friday.

That's my usual wait time.

LL will take your money instantly when you buys lindens for real money, yet when you do the reverse it takes days or weeks. Strange about that.

Let's not forget to mention..

Your stipends may be a day or two late.. but they are NEVER late on taking your tiers!...lol

That's pretty good thinking there. I never thought of that. If a 3rd parties systems is quicker and more efficient, why not?

Thanks Mimi!

They charged mine a day late in September. My bill date was even reset from the 3rd to the 4th of every month because of it.

I am bumping you to an 8.5 on the Official Trout Measuring Instrument of Sluttiness. You are an enigma - on the one hand a sweet, gentle, intelligent woman who we would like to wrap up in our arms and protect, and on the other, a temptress to whom we would like to do all sorts of unmentionable things.

Congratulations and shame on you! You are a bit of a slut.

Also check to make sure paypal email was correct. One mistype and it can stay in limbo for a month or more unless you contact LL to find out.

On your account page, under "Linden Dollar" (on the right), there's a link "Process Credit History". If you click it, you can see if your request is still processing.

If it is, you'll have to wait a little longer. (0-5 business days, holidays affect processing, and lately this number is correct in my experience)

If the request shows as 'processed', and you have not received anything on paypal. Check the email in the 'details'. If it's wrong, then the money went elsewhere, and you can try contacting paypal.
If it's correct, put in a support ticket to LL billing.
