  @AskPayPal I cannot login to my account. Very poor performance, particularly on the day after Thanksgiving. Makes me want to consider NOT USING THE SERVICE anymore.

  @askpaypal @paypaluk so it appears your 2FA notifications are down right now, and I cannot contact you by phone or message to report my login issue …because that requires me to login using 2FA! What the **** PayPal !?! #PayPal #fail

  @AskPayPal: I’ve been trying to call to get help with my account (I seem to be locked out) but the automated message says to login to the help center to get help as no one can take my call. Who can I call?

  @antonlinecom Why does the website not except major credit cards. Had the Ps5 in my cart and tried with 2 different credits, website kept saying declined. After I lost the ps5, I tried to make a 60 dollar purchase and it still go through. Could you please fix or can we only pay with PayPal?

  My verification code keeps expiring before I can enter it on @PayPal so we play the game of is it a PayPal issue or because I hardly get signal with @O2 (my money is on it being O2 that is the problem but my money is IN PayPal and I like need access to it please)

  Heads up, #PayPal users: their two-factor identification seems to be down. Lots of peeps (including me) report inability to get security codes to log in. (Not that I was gonna spend any money on #BlackFriday - just checking mine for an u related purpose).
