Where'd did all of my money go?

1 replies
I just lost 660$. And its elance's fault. I hired a worker on elance and funded the money for the job, but then the bastar*d adjusted the terms, so he can get paid upfront. I was supposed to be refunded 330$. So I revised his terms and put up another 330$. The contractor cancels the job and the second 330$ that I put up was suppose to be refunded again. But neither payment got refunded into my account.

SO I wrote elance and they say that they have proof and are sure that they refunded the money, and basically blame paypal.

When I checked my paypal, there is no transactions posted between me and elance. So I can't file a dispute. Atleast not until the morning. I'm going to have to give them a call. Which is going to be a little annoying because my phone is off.

    Hi,

    Sorry about your mishaps. If this has just happened, give it 24hrs. I had a similar incident with paypal the money appeared 24hrs later, thou it was a fraction of yours.

    Also try paying contractors per hour and monitor the hours, be safe. Hope it all gets sorted out.
