it takes time for it to go through

they may be doing fraud detection, or a red flag may have come up

Of course it hasn't been sent yet as it was Sunday yesterday, which is not a business day.

When processing electronic debit /credit payments it takes 3-7 business days.

It would have only been instant on paypal if it was from an existing balance or if it was withdrawn directly from a bank account.

rly cause i've used a debit card multiple times to pay people, not a company, and it went through within 24 hours.

I've also been payed by a debit card and received it within 24 hours.

not really trying to go in-depth, but more-so give a reasonable time line since he obviously didn't get it within 24hours.  It also depends bank to bank.  My bank usually does it instantly or within days, but a lot banks and credit unions follow the 3-7 business day rule as well as some savings accounts, credit lines, and so forth.    ::)

95% of payments are instant, the only 5% include: random fraud checks(Whenever the sender verifies their paypal account is legit), e-checks(7 days to process), or they sent it from once of those card you can buy at walmart to refill(takes few days probly)
