    I usually get unclaimed funds when the sender is new or it is from credit card funds.

    If this is your first transaction, then you've to accept it manually.
    If you're using personal PayPal account, and getting the payment from credit card, then also you've to accept manually.

    Business and Premier account accepts credit card payments by auto.

    PS: There's no way to send funds as unclaimed. lol :)

    I get them when I accept a different monetary value other then usd. If he is trying to pay you this way it will stay unclaimed until you accept it. They then will ask you to make a new section with that monetary value or convert it. I always convert it.

    Was he sending money in the format of other currency? I mean Pounds, or anything else? If so, then I think you'll have to accept funds..
