the status will not ever change…once you are refunded for fees (or fees cancelled) then you can either hide the transaction permanently or don’t worry about it

You need to get the transaction # from paypal for the refund.

Then you need to go to “your store” then go down to “fee’s” look for the statement the item is on, probably the most recent, look on the statement, on the bottom it will say “request a refund for a transaction on this bill”

it will give you some options, find the correct ones, then put in the transaction # from paypal for the refund and hit submit.
