    @AskPayPal Hello, I took time to present details of an issue (error on your side) in the 'SMS' box of your support pages, and then this got closed due to lack of (your) activity. That's really poor, do you have a support email address please?

  • CharlesWert7 Charles Wert (@CharlesWert7) reported

    If #Bitcoin is down approximately 50% over it’s high. Can we expect other growth stocks (high risk assists) to have similar results? Early indications suggest yes with the recent moves of #Facebook and #paypal

    @i_am_shankar We had to remove PayPal for India because of an increasing number of failed payments to India. We were unable to figure it out with PayPal and therefore had to close it down, because it caused a lot of work and costs on our side.

    Thank you for the support! All is well for now. Artist took the post down cause it was boosted and descriptions can't be edited. The tattoo-ee was incredibly apologetic + generous and tipped me through PayPal. Mistakes happen and I'm just glad they were both receptive! 🙏

  • Zhenelov Zelimir Zhenelov (@Zhenelov) reported

    For my Patreon, it will continue to open as usual. No problem because it can use Payoneer instead Paypal. As for Gumroad, I'll have to wait and see there fix to has another way to get money. If that doesn't fix it I might have to close it and find another way.

    PayPal stocks crashed 25% after their Q4 earnings disclosed that 4.5mn accounts were illegitimate and have been shut down Is there no bottom to US Fintech stocks 😥 @jasuja @gilhotravanshi

  • opticalparallax Vin (@opticalparallax) reported

    @cryptomanran Funny you ignore a vast majority of large markets that still use it. Facebook market place is an absolute god send for me and a lot of others. The stock dropping is nothing but a knee jerk reaction. PayPal is down Snap is down Twitter is down why ignore those and attack Meta?

  • virality_ro Virality (@virality_ro) reported

    @RevolutApp Hello guys., I did a paypal transfer to my revolut card which the money didnt arrive, so far it seems the system is experiencing some problems, will my paypal balance be credited to my card after the services goes back online or these money are lost?

  • PlsMiko Miko Pls (@PlsMiko) reported

    @AskPayPal Paypal... When are you going to stop blocking me from sending payments or doing purchases online? Why do I keep getting the message that I need to add a card when one is added? Fix this issue ASAP. Its been going on for way too long.

  • JuneGlambrose UnapologeticallyGlam (@JuneGlambrose) reported

    I’ve been going back and forth with @ChickfilA for going on three 3days to release funds they took out of my account in error. They claim they didn’t do it but @Paypal says otherwise. Now I need contact my bank to report fraud charges.

  • MartinL97545295 Martin Lane (@MartinL97545295) reported

  • vincentraos Vincentrao™⚡️ (@vincentraos) reported

    PayPal is down -20% within 24h, but #Bitcoin is volatile? Why does media cover only BTC corrections but not stock related corrections? #PayPal

    @AskPayPal Actually the problem is you are not replying properly and u taking like 20 hours in replying.

  • angionata emmanuele (@angionata) reported

    PayPal stock is 50% down y/y. [God forbid] If they cut jobs in IE, time to expose their incompetent executives. @realBobbyHealy @ChasTaylor : I’ll start a crusade on this.

  • YoungMoneyCap Young Money Capital (@YoungMoneyCap) reported

    @SrenRas86108024 I heard PayPal also blamed macro issues (didn’t listen to call). Google conveniently didn’t offer guidance. I would guess a lot of companies are dealing with the same issues as $FB.

  • AIJermain Jermain (@AIJermain) reported
