5. Technical errors (i.e. Payment Gateway scheduled maintenance, technical error on payment gateway’s side which resulted in the inability to receive IPN corresponding with the order).

6. PayPal e-check: When the account has insufficient funds, PayPal will issue e-check. Usually, it will take up to 5 days for PayPal e-check clearance. PayPal e-check is defined as the following: Sending an e-check is just like writing a check, only you send it through your computer. It’s also called an electronic funds transfer, because you withdraw money directly from your bank account. When you send money with an e-check from a U.S. bank account, the transaction is held as pending for 3-4 business days, until the electronic funds transfer clears your bank. From a Canadian bank account, the transaction is held as pending for 7-8 business days.
