So the process isn't quite complete yet, but after about a week of wrangling with online services and the call centre, the process of getting hold of my money seems finally to be working out

I tried transfering some of my money from Canada to the UK through PayPal and it got all confusing and locked up my PayPal accounts. Of course this happened while I was away so I had to wait to come home before I could start sorting it out.
It then took about a week of calling the helpline and explaining I wasn't in Canada at the moment and I wanted to get hold of my money without things freezing up.
Now I just have to wait about a week for the transer to go through and I'll be able to get at it finally. It was all very reasonable limitations really, but just very annoying and time consuming to unravel.
Wow it sounds like a nightmare! I had no idea that PayPal could be that complicated (but then I don't travel, so haven't had that kind of experience). I'm glad you're getting it sorted out :)
Thanks, and me too. I was hoping to have it sorted a lot sooner as the money would be quite useful, especially over xmas.
Still knowing it's all finally heading in the right direction is a relief. It would be nice if there was some kind of international paypal you could access no matter what country you were in.
