    @HarrowKrodarius @Emanuel66201297 @PlayStation I opened a complaint with PayPal. Hopefully, they'll fix it. It's not the 9 bucks (because I kept it monthly) that bother me. It's that, neither me or my brother are using the service anymore, why should I give my money for something we don't use now? It's a matter of principle

    Hey everyone, do you have trouble using certain apps like Venmo, PayPal, LibertyX, Green Dot, or RockItCoin? Do they work for you? Please let me know, because I'm going crazy here nothing seems to work. I'm actually going to start writing reviews for them. MY LOVERS respond me

    Yeah this IcyPryncess thing is weird. I just watched Jay3 video and listened to the memos. Why did you move the PayPal money to your bank account? That's where the whole issue begins. Forget the cash app non sense, the issue starts from PayPal

    @ballaakeeeee @SkyAsassino the unfortunate thing is that they taught kids in the discord server how to make money on cashapp and paypal to convert to crypto in order to buy. this site is actually where the entire issue i mentioned is isolated its not a widespread thing but they absolutely sell to kids...

    @RobInBaltimore @TheTNHoller what did elmo muskovite "invent" exactly? he was late to the game with tesla, nothing more than an injection of VC. his first business netted $22 mil total and was bought by a computer company that very quickly shut down. paypal was garbage until thiel's VC got involved.

    @AhIn_Tenshi104 It's probably a PayPal issue... I'd recommend reaching out to support and asking what's going on. The last time my account got limited, I assumed it was because I uploaded the wrong verification documents, but the email actually said it was due to high transaction volume

    @RaltsAuthor You should. You don't know me except here and our occasional communication on YouTube, but I had a friend, a dear, wonderful friend whom I miss every day. His name was Eric and he was one of the programmers of Mechwarrior 2 from Activision back in the 1990s. Before GoFundMe, before anything much other than PayPal was a going concern, when I heard about his health problems - before I even really got to know him - I wanted to help. Because I'd gotten tons of fun out of MW2, and he seemed like a decent guy. He was working on a 3d terrain generator, procedural that is, that was based on what he'd done with 3d graphics in MW2 and at that time you had to sell something to get money on PayPal so we set up a donationware download point and put a PayPal button on it. It helped he and his wife get through a drought until SSDI kicked in. Open the GoFundMe. It's not begging; there's people who care about you, bet.

    @chesscomsupport I'm trying to buy a Friends & Family subscription, but the payment page is buggy and rejects every single payment method. I have tried entering credit card details directly, using Apple Pay, using Google Pay, and PayPal. Most of them fail after I try to pay, showing "Your transaction failed. Please check your card details and try again.” Looking at the browser developer tools shows an HTTP 422 error. PayPal fails before it even starts with an "Error: Expected an subscription id to be passed to createSubscription" in the developer console. Since the Friends and Family subscription has a separate payment page, I suspect only that page is broken. I had no problem signing up for a free trial through Apple on my phone but I know that the Friends & Family subscription has to be purchased from the website.

    I think people are giving Phoebe Gates far less grace than they'd give almost any other first-time founder. Remember this is the same industry which is known for these dark patterns, like honey and no one here shamed the honey founders when they did it. Only a lawsuit was filed against PayPal which is the natural progression of things. Not to mention the whistleblower here was a direct competitor, Capital One so it's actually a big company bringing down a startup. Generally in such scenarios people support the startup but here it's the reverse. Its essentially that her last name has made this a much bigger story than it would have been for most founders. If Phia had been started by two unknown twenty-somethings, the conversation would probably be about a browser extension that crossed a line. Because one of the founders is Phoebe Gates, it quickly became a debate about her character. It's also easy to forget that she didn't simply inherit a company. Bill Gates didn't fund Phia. She and Sophia Kianni raised outside capital, built a team, launched a product, and convinced people to use it. Having famous parents can open doors, but it also means every mistake gets judged more harshly and every headline carries extra weight.

    I started this donation drive 10 days ago, and we have already reached more than 117,000 PHP. 🥹 Despite the PayPal issues and all the stress that came with it, the truth is that I have never regretted starting this donation drive. Story time: As some of you may know, there have been people spreading rumors and false accusations about me, including calling me a scammer. This has been happening for months. I tried my best to ignore it, but I won’t lie, it affected me, especially because I am also part of another fandom aside from being a Yobie. When the ticket sales started, I actually had no plans of creating a donation drive. I simply sponsored one ticket myself because I wanted to help in a small way. I also encouraged others to sponsor, and I was able to connect someone who wanted to help with someone who needed a ticket. At that point, I was just acting as a bridge between fans who wanted to give support and fans who needed assistance. Then someone messaged me wanting to donate, and I thought, why not? Why should I let other people stop me from helping Yoko? If I stopped supporting her because of rumors and accusations, even when I know I did nothing wrong, then that would mean they succeeded in stopping me from doing something good. So I decided to start this donation drive. Honestly, I never expected that so many people would support it, especially with everything that has been said about me. That is why I want to say thank you from the bottom of my heart. Thank you not only to everyone who donated, but also to those who continue sharing my posts, spreading the word, and showing your trust and support. You have no idea how much it means to me. Thank you for believing in me and for allowing me to continue doing something I genuinely want to do: supporting Yoko. 🫶🏼

    If you are doing above 500k a month with ecom Listen I have had houndreds of DMs from ecom guys just like you They thought they will be safe on Shopify payments But they were not Still ran into reserves, holds, shutdowns, etc. The usual case: - multiple 8 figs processed with shopify - CB % below 0.3 % - Local manufacturing - As white hat as ecom can get But they still got betrayed Lost all the subscription tokens (some recovered via auth net plugin) Almost killing their whole business over some new behavioural program VISA came out with Now mastercard is doing the same Once it goes live (on 24th of July) There will likely be the same wave of shut downs as there was when VAMP came out What does it mean for you? You could have 0 chargebacks or 0 refunds (which no one at that scale has) And still get shutdown They are basically trying to shut stores down before they can do any damage Issue here? Behaviour monitoring in ecom mixes up BH and WH stores Because on the front end it all looks the same - pre chceked boxes - claims on landers - before and afters - tampered testimonials The list goes on That is why there where so many wrongful shutdowns when VAMP came out What can you do? Switch away from SP before they shut you down Move to a CRM and Private processing (MIDs) You would own your subscription tokens Have the native shopify checkout Yes you can still have apple/google pay and paypal Also if you didn't know Shop pay was opened up recently and CRMs are working on implementing it in their system Meaning? Soon you will also be able to have Shop Pay wihtout shopify payments If you want guidance on how to set this all up and get the connections that you don't have (heads of the biggest CRMs, ISOs, fintech companies, etc.) Feel free to send me a DM ps. I don't charge anything for this
