  @sheppardpat47 @geneclez Also it doesn't matter who's right or wrong in this situation, getting someone's paypal taken down for this was such a scummy move lmfao, the artist got his main payment option taken down over this petty ****. Just ask for the ******* refund from the artist dude

  @Uniquecomics1 @LogWeaver Michael Burry shorted AI darlings like Nvidia & Palantir last year, then watched software stocks crash 20-30% on technical debt issues (not fundamentals). Now he's buying resilient names like PayPal, Adobe, Salesforce—self-funded companies trading at 2018-level valuations with rising earnings forecasts. Lesson: Top investors follow the data, not permanent narratives. Retail does the opposite.

  My PayPal banned. The account that I depend on promoting and sell my art got deactivated. My account have such low impression, maybe because my art sucks. I have 5 unfinished major works. And I have a major problem with my family relation. I'm going to kill myself.

  @geneclez You made this appeal to Paypal knowing they'd take his paypal account down over this dude being stingy about how many times you asked for changes. I don't even know what to say man, this is just pathetic behavior lmfao

  @GamingWithNuke @KrestoTheArtist The problem isnt really ISPs, its payment processors. If they cant make money they won't do it. If Visa/Mastercard/PayPal etc all say no go to processing the "donation". then they cant make money off of it.

  @VenmoSupport Venmo and PayPal are nothing but rip-offs fraudsters, and they need to be taken down. I don't give a **** Who does it? I hope a hacker does it. That would be so f****** awesome.

  @AskPayPal Hello, I encountered a technical issue with my account. It was permanently restricted the moment I uploaded my ID(CIN) for verification. I believe this was an automated mistake as the documents are 100% authentic. Could you please manually review my case? Thank you.

  🇺🇸BERNIE SANDERS SAYS YOU PAID MORE TAX THAN MAJOR CORPORATIONS “If you paid $1 in federal income taxes this year, you paid more than some of the biggest companies in America.” That’s what Bernie Sanders just claimed. According to him, corporations like Walt Disney Company, Citigroup, CVS Health, Kohl’s, Ticketmaster, Tesla, United Airlines, GoDaddy, PayPal, Palantir Technologies, Roku, HP Inc., 3M, PG&E, and Halliburton paid zero in federal income tax. The argument is simple. Regular people are paying into the system. Some of the largest corporations are not. Supporters say it exposes loopholes and broken tax policy. Critics argue it ignores how corporate taxes actually work, including losses, credits, and reinvestment. Either way, the message hits hard. The tax system looks very different depending on where you stand. Source: Public Statement by Bernie Sanders

  Someone should create a micro-blogging app where people can discuss news and trends in brevity. This time limit the text to 150 - 200 letters. This is why we signed up to X. But right now X is Instagram, YouTube plus PayPal. Microblogging is broken. We need a new outlet. Trust me. If it's simple and fun people will leave X to build somewhere new from scratch. We miss Twitter so much.

  $PYPL has quietly climbed back into the 50s, and the PayPal Beyond 2026 event last week in San Francisco is a big reason sentiment has stabilized. - Earlier this year, PayPal got hit hard: weak 2026 guide, CEO exit, and the previous 2027 growth targets (8–10% branded checkout TPV, 7–9% TM$) were scrapped after a sharp Q4 miss. At the lows around $40, the stock was pricing in something close to a broken business. - At Beyond 2026, new CEO Enrique Lores used his first big stage to reset the story: focus on operational efficiency, AI‑driven innovation, deeper partnerships, and doubling down on commerce infrastructure that keeps merchants in control while opening them up to the full PayPal + Venmo consumer base. - The recent product moves fit neatly into that narrative: - Canva integration – PayPal Payment Links embedded directly into Canva, plugging PayPal, Venmo and Pay Later into the fast‑growing social/creator commerce layer. - Venmo going global – Venmo users can now transact with PayPal accounts across 90 markets, with international fees waived for a launch period, plus more push on debit, checkout and rewards. My view: the move back into the 50s feels more like a rerating from “doomsday” levels than a reaction to some explosive new growth story. PayPal hasn’t shown anything at Beyond or in the recent news that would make me believe in a sudden growth acceleration – no new flashy multi‑year targets, just a more disciplined, execution‑focused message. At the same time, between Beyond 2026, the Canva partnership and the Venmo globalization, it’s increasingly clear that their core position is stable and they have real levers to pull beyond 2026 if Lores executes. So I read this as the market moving from “priced for disaster” to “priced for a solid, mature payments franchise with some optionality,” rather than the start of a new hyper‑growth chapter.

  @AdsterraNetwork Why are my PayPal (Hyperwallet) payments being returned every time with new reasons? First “invalid account”, now “compliance issue”. This looks unprofessional. I need a clear solution and my payment released now. #Adsterra #PaymentDelay

  @Cointelegraph Can MoonPay handle receiving payments from our clients? We’re freelancers based in Pakistan and currently facing issues with payment collection, especially since PayPal isn’t available here.
