This happened to Me and another person i was sending money to as well.

I had deposited a set amount of money in a check in my checking account, generally checks will go in immediately the following morning, but the ATM will automatically tell me that 100.00 is available for withdrawal immediately.

I sent the 100.00 through paypal, which takes another two days to go through and also post to my account. Plenty of time for a payroll check to go through and post as well.

Something happened and, im still not quite clear on what exactly went down for that, but that they tried taking the money BACK from the other person's account when it was not theirs to take.

*sigh* paypal sucks, but... its there and works ( for the most part)

if something better came along, that was just as easy to use id be all over it!
