Paypal Nightmare!!
For some reason my PayPal account is not letting me send or receive money!
Had a guy send me a £100 deposit for my Leon and nothings coming up on my recent activity or on payments received but I've received emails saying he's sent the money 
Also I sent someone £25 for a mesh grill last night and that's not on my recent activity or payments sent and he's saying he hasn't got the money let 
I've brought quite a lot of things through the same account and never had any problems, brought my fcs ticket last month and that worked fine but the deposit is the first time I've been sent money. Could that be the reason its fuckin up??

Is your bank account all set-up correctly on your account? If yes, I'd contact PayPal.

log into your paypal account and check your associated email addresses. Double check your emails.
Check your email address on the account you had money sent to...as in check the recipient on the email is your address. Take note of .com or .co.uk or any mispelling.
Then check your paypal address log in details and associated addresses.
Also double check the email address you sent the £25 to, and of the one he told you to send it to as well as the address he emailed you off, check its correct.

Thanks I know the deposit email is right as I've received emails from PayPal about it (just nothing on my account :s) and I'll ask the guy that I sent the £25 to check his emails to see if anything but I should be right as I copy and pasted the email address he gave me!

Very good point, they can look very convincing as well, the best way to tell is to look at the header of the email and it will display an email address like 35g453jg534hjb@paypal.com which is a spoofed address.

PayPal suck at the moment, after 7+ years of having an account with regular activity they now start holding my money for between 7-21 days!

It's weird as hell, it used to go in instant and I could immediately transfer it to my bank. Now I have £300 sitting in my account that I cannot use!!

My cards are all in date and active.
Emailed PayPal earlier and a nice man called Marvin released my money was surprised how quick PayPal responded and how fast they processed it.
