Ways To Withdraw Funds From PayPal To India

Almost all of the Indian PayPal users are now aware of the PayPal fiasco in India. From the past few days there have been issues between PayPal and Indian users. The users who requested to withdraw the money from their PayPal accounts to bank accounts are now receiving the funds back in their PayPal accounts. Even the money that was deducted while withdrawing funds is also refunded back into the accounts. But it’s still not confirmed when this withdrawal problem will be fixed.

I contact the PayPal team to confirm when these issues will be fixed and got the following reply :

We are currently experiencing an issue processing bank transfers to India bank accounts. I sincerely regret the inconvenience it has caused you.  As a result there may be some delays in both withdrawals and random deposits.  We are doing everything we can to process your  withdrawal as soon a possible; however, we do not have a specific timeframe to share at this time.

I suggest not to withdraw money directly to your bank accounts until all these issues are fixed. However if you want to withdraw the money you can use the following two methods :

• Withdraw funds by requesting a check :
  1. Go to the PayPal website and log in to your account.
  2. Click “Withdraw.”
  3. Click the “Request a check from PayPal” link.
  4. Enter the required information.
  5. Click “Continue.”
• Withdraw funds to a credit card :
  1. Go to the PayPal website and log in to your account.
  2. Click “Withdraw.”
  3. Click the “Withdraw funds to your card” link.
  4. Enter the required information.
  5. Click “Continue.”
