    @Jesus56287485 @AskPayPal It was only a dollar calm down !!

  • starweiser Dani | OCs, fandom stuff (@starweiser) reported

    @not_asha_ I don't know if I got it right, but I connected PayPal to ko-fi and I had no problem 🤔

  • TheRubenSaurus RubenSaurus (@TheRubenSaurus) reported

    @AbroadKew @discord I have noticed a lot of issues with PayPal issues in the last two weeks for subscribtions on different services. It forced me to get a prepaid CC. Only reason I can think of is the new changes in percentages they take from transactions.

  • Majii_ch Majii ❤️‍🩹 (@Majii_ch) reported

    @wakiobake i hope i dont get caught but-- if your documents has a different name that is not registered to the paypal account, you may have to edit the document (via photoshop) to match the name. (this may not be connected to your issue but my point is you might need to trick their system)

  • sama_sandwich SandwichSama🍓 (@sama_sandwich) reported

    Hi @eneba_games ! I opened a support ticket for a not working key a couple of days ago. Since I haven't heard from you, I'm about to open a Paypal ticket, because they take it way more effectively than you do.

  • ahmadabolfotouh Ahmad AbolFotouh (@ahmadabolfotouh) reported

    @PayPal I have a problem and I've sent you an email and no reply! I need anyone from customer service to contact me.. thank you!

  • ingeniouscat Catherine Griffin (@ingeniouscat) reported

    After years of meditation, all the mysteries of #space and time were revealed to me. It's really quite simple, and I'd tell you, only there's not enough room in this tweet. Please send $5 by PayPal for the PDF (no refunds; your lack of enlightment isn't my problem) #vss365

    @bubsfaa I know the fees are annoying but honestly I don’t know what I’d do without PayPal lol it just made whaling very easy (terrible, I know ><)

  • JonRussett Jon Russett (@JonRussett) reported

    @Steve_Laws_ Just get a bigger ladder and move a little to the left. 👌No injunctions broken or use a monopod to get the elevation you need for getting the shots elsewhere ? As usual much thanks for doing this. btw Have you got a PayPal donation address ?

  • pattytweetsve patty (@pattytweetsve) reported

    @AskPayPal I sent my identity documents 2 days ago, and still have limitations on my ppal account. I tried to contact you by phone call and the operator doesn't recognize the code generated by the account. PLEASE I need your help with this issue asap!

  • bryanwb74 Bryan Bidewell (@bryanwb74) reported

    @Ask_DP I am having issue with my login & order, apparently my login is incorrect, which it isn't also I placed an order on Monday & have received no confirmation email other than confirmation from paypal referencing the Invoice ID, can you assist?

  • casualst0ner420 Casual_St0ner420 (@casualst0ner420) reported

    @LegendOfKass Ot wasnt even only fans that was the main problem.. Its mastercard and paypal that are making the fuss about onlyfans and adult content

  • craftybeardguy CraftyBeardGuy - Ash 🖌️ (@craftybeardguy) reported

    @LibrarianNima @HeresyJunkie @mikes40k I did it via that and used PayPal to pay to upgrade from my app subscription - no issues with it going through

  • SmartMar603 SmartMars603YT (@SmartMar603) reported

    @dont_jinxit I always have issues with PayPal.

  • craftybeardguy CraftyBeardGuy - Ash 🖌️ (@craftybeardguy) reported

    This was on my android phone btw and I paid for the year with PayPal, no issues whatsoever

  • kapimartin kapi (@kapimartin) reported

    @Gerald23N @mofpedU I also do use a Kenyan bank account for my PayPal transactions. But it’s still costly in terms of transactional fees and foreign exchange rates. I really do think that a policy change needs to be effected by @mofpedU to sort this issue out.

  • ultramar10 Craig W (@ultramar10) reported

    @Daemon_Hammer @BearsAroundHere @mikes40k Yep about 20 mins ago. Site was a little slow to load at first then no problems (used PayPal as option)

  • atiluix Fernando Hessling (@atiluix) reported

    @NebraLtd @helium I ordered 12.april - If it doesnt arrive untill 11.Oktober - i will AGAIN Charge My Money Back through PayPal !!! Im ok with waiting a little until Oktober - but hell If it doesnt arrive Here since then Nebra will BE in Big Trouble ! My lawyers are ready to Rock'n'Roll

  • Danmotorfinger Obi-Dan Gillespie (@Danmotorfinger) reported

    @philhester I’m not arguing with you, I just genuinely don’t see the problem with being paid via PayPal?

  • wlyapollo Apollo (@wlyapollo) reported

    @Gmannlol Bro I shouldn’t have to play u we already beat u and him for 5. So send the $5 to my PayPal and I’ll play u tomorrow back for it down?

  • TheshoeguyOc TheShoeGuyOC (@TheshoeguyOc) reported

    @kimmacking @snkr_twitr I tried checking out with PayPal for faster processing but still got an error and then sold out. Good job!

  • b2bsdr cold (@b2bsdr) reported

    @dwilliamriggs Payment processing thst just flat-out works 100% globally. Stripe & PayPal are highly problematic & exclude some huge markets. This is an actual problem causing major pain

  • evilkipper Evil Kipper Hobby - Rob (@evilkipper) reported

    @Steed_85 Only anecdotal, but I’m hearing a fair few people having issues. If they use PayPal it seems to be working fine but straight card or bank setups seem to be crashing quite a lot for some. Fairly normal release day stuff, sadly.

  • hornedushio ˗ˏˋʚ ushio ɞ´ˎ˗ (@hornedushio) reported

    @Effigyvee my problem is cashapp doesn't work in my country so i have no options but paypal...

  • coboney Don Parsons (@coboney) reported

    @TehMadness From what I gather, the impetuous behind the change was payment processors cracking down. They might have been able to push back with the support there and show it to Mastercard/Visa/Paypal oligarchy. Its... an unenviable spot they are in right now

  • RyokoShadow Ryoko Shadow (@RyokoShadow) reported

    So I just noticed when I get donations from @streamlabs tips to @PayPal I don’t get it at all which is unfair to the person that wants to donate. So people that follow me on twitch please stick to bits and sub for now until I get the issue figured out.

  • Nick_Unwin Nick Unwin (@Nick_Unwin) reported

    @JosephGlass Done. Was going to do this days ago when The Pride was still in stock, but had weird PayPal problems. You still have any copies of the hardcover edition?

  • thedirthvader dirthvader (@thedirthvader) reported

    @AskPayPal you instruct me to create a MTS ticket yet the system is down... fix the ERRORCODE-53002

  • LibrarianNima Nima 🏳️‍🌈 (@LibrarianNima) reported

    @ScapegoatSte @mikes40k If you can pay with PayPal it should work. Well, if you try to pay with card, it has some problems with nasty nurglings.

  • GrarkMooneye Grark Mooneye (@GrarkMooneye) reported

    @instanceofjamie @Daemon_Hammer I’m not upgrading but tried to subscribe to Warhammer+. Using a debit card I just got a blank popup - no subscription. I tried paypal - got ‘payment set up successfully’ but app thinks I’m not subscribed. I rang GW about unrelated digital purchase problem… 1/2
