5. Submit your claim to PayPal.
PayPal will email you to let you know they received your claim and they will continue to email you with updates as well as to inform you of any action or information required from you. Be sure to check your "Spam" folder for any correspondence from PayPal to ensure it is promptly addressed.
Important: you must respond promptly to PayPal's requests for documentation, otherwise your claim will be refused. PayPal usually decides cases in 30 days or less, but it may take longer in some cases. You can always check the status of your claim by visiting the Resolution Center.
While you wait for more instructions from PayPal, here are some additional tips to keep in mind:
- After submitting your claim, you will be able to communicate with your seller through this form so that PayPal can review the conversation details. The seller will be able to view and respond to these messages directly on their end.
- Never close a dispute or claim if you have not received your item or your refund. If the seller agrees to a refund, they should complete the process through the PayPal claim.
If you are unable to work out a resolution with the seller, or if the seller is unresponsive, please escalate the claim for PayPal’s review as soon as possible. You can escalate to a claim within 20 calendar days from the date the dispute was opened.
The Resolution Center will provide you with the date when PayPal will allow you to escalate the claim. Please note that a dispute will automatically close if it isn’t escalated to a claim within 20 days. Closed disputes cannot be reopened or escalated to a claim. Please check the Resolution Center to see any messages that are part of your dispute. Claim timeframes may vary depending on the nature of the case.
