    @elonmusk HELY ELON. Im trying to fix some of your old Paypal/Ebay code! HELP ME!!!!!

  • JohnMorton215 John Morton (@JohnMorton215) reported

    @HardinCards Dang. Never seen that before. Not the problem I was thinking it was. Yeah unfortunately I think you’ll be best to file a claim. In the specific transaction in PayPal, at the very bottom there should be a “report a problem” function you can click and go through the process.

  • mishiikenhkwe art by mishiikenh kwe (@mishiikenhkwe) reported

    @bi_rogues That’s super annoying, I’m sorry. I’ve had issues linking my bank to my PayPal in the past. Sometimes it’s an issue on the bank’s end, have you tried calling RBC?

  • xyzaesthetic Shadow (@xyzaesthetic) reported

    I think this may be because I use Varo. Ever since linking Varo, that’s when problems with PayPal started but like I said thankfully it’s fixed atm.

  • pixelshopped pixelshopped (@pixelshopped) reported

    Some people have asked about the veeps account rule. It just means you have to have a veeps account so I can sign in and buy your ticket. That’s all. If you’re uncomfortable with that, I can send the money but only through PayPal.

  • fullenglishpint FullEnglishPint Esq. (@fullenglishpint) reported

    @wappingraces I would like to buy 'The wanking ploughman' but have an issue with my paypal. Send me £100 friends and family and I will ping you back £105 as that's the only way it seems to work. Cheers.

    What is the probablity of you pay someone in Bitcoin to preserve your and the artist privacity and avoid problems with PayPal?

  • SpicyPurritos Ar!elle (@SpicyPurritos) reported

    @Cyanytlas i was leery of using ebay again cause i had a big issue w/them years ago where someone was trying to scam me&initially they shut down my paypal account. i eventually got it settled & got my money but can’t make paypal accounts anymore. 😒 but i did join a lawsuit against them lol

  • sexushouldtryit ʏᴏᴜʀ ᴅᴀᴅᴅʏ. 𝙻𝙰𝚂 𝚅𝙴𝙶𝙰𝚂 𝙾𝙲𝚃 𝟹-𝟷𝟷 (@sexushouldtryit) reported

    someone really asked if i had a more discrete paypal email 💀 i dont care to be discrete with my online payment method names. if your wife or whoever finds out youre sending money to a hot brat online, that sounds like a you problem & maybe personal choices should be re-evaluated

  • SteinTempus Stein Tempus (@SteinTempus) reported

    @icelectricspyro They heard of someone who paid themselves by error to get a commission on PayPal Yup, happened to me once. Instead of getting the artist's email I placed mine, so I just paid myself XD

  • smartelephant3 Elephants Are Smarter Than People (@smartelephant3) reported

    @mikkimommy @FPWellman Paypal will shut it down. Even Paypal has fraud standards.

  • chrmorri6 Chris Morrison (@chrmorri6) reported

    @AskPlayStation All I get is "There was an error. Please try again" when trying to add funds to my wallet. No matter what I do. Country is correct, card info is correct, everything is correct. I even have my PayPal account attached and get the same message when trying to add funds using my Pal

  • ArtfulEcho_ Echo (they/them) (@ArtfulEcho_) reported

    @ranboovinyl No problem! I’m always here to help. I wish I could donate but I don’t have a PayPal unfortunately

  • AnnCarters Ann | september 10 💔 (@AnnCarters) reported

    @British_Airways I keep getting kicked out whenever I try to book. This is ridiculous. I get to paypal and then suddenly “There was an issue, start over”. SERIOUSLY?!

  • lucytobin Lucy Tobin (@lucytobin) reported

    Is there a good alternative to Paypal Pools because I LOVED it for street collections, school class collections etc - so annoying they’re closing it down.

  • DistrokidR Royalties via Distrokid (we are not @distrokid) (@DistrokidR) reported

    @facemasktimeeee @Jose37818470 This may well be the issue. If PayPal or Distrokid got enough pressure from governments regarding artists failing to pay income tax (hiding income in Paypal), maybe they simply stopped. With no official response, we can only guess. For all we know, they may forgot their password.

  • Cjayy14 Hello! 😷 (@Cjayy14) reported

    @BeepBoopAmBot Hi, faceless person named "Bot". It sucks your Paypal is broken! Contact your local representatives ASAP. Get food from a local food bank. Where exactly are you located so we can make helpful suggestions?

  • Ninja50Fan GoldenNinja50 (@Ninja50Fan) reported

    Youtubers, if you get donations from a  Noah Trumbull. Do not accept them. This person seems to have stolen his parents credit card and makes big donations on streams causing big problems with PayPal.

    @mmoises1213 @chartdata PayPal is strong to fix your face but can’t fix inside you

  • kit_maker Kit Maker (@kit_maker) reported

    @gumroad For days, our customers tell us they can’t pay via PayPal. Gumroad support said we had two PayPal emails on our backend somehow, but we stopped hearing back. We want to keep the gmail PayPal email. Please fix ASAP thanks kitmaker.gumroad

  • AdamGar03168187 Adam Gardner (@AdamGar03168187) reported

    @MacroScope17 I know a few rich people who only buy GBTC because @coinbase doesn’t have live customer service. They are older and want to know they can speak with someone if there is an issue. I told them use PayPal if they are worried but it does only have 4 coins

  • shdiskndjxnxnd Shdiskndjxnxnd (@shdiskndjxnxnd) reported

    @claires is terrible do not shop here!! Refused to refund money back to my card because I used PayPal only offered store credit even though I had receipt. They stole my money and are not willing to refund !!!

  • bkbutterfly18 Betty K (@bkbutterfly18) reported

    @AskPayPal @PayPal I called and spoke with someone yesterday but he could not fix the problem so I was told that my friend had to call herself and she called too but got no help either… I just want to get my money in USD and not in CAD because I don’t want unnecessary currency conversion
