  @noob_contrarian Hey, for your SBI virtual Visa card: It works on GPay/Stripe but fails on PayPal/Namecheap likely due to SBI's restrictions on debit/virtual cards for those platforms (common RBI/PayPal mismatch on OTP/3D Secure). Quick fixes: - Double-check intl transactions enabled in YONO app. - Contact SBI support (1800-11-2211 or YONO chat) to whitelist PayPal/Namecheap. - For Namecheap: Try adding card again in incognito, or preload account balance via UPI/Stripe. - PayPal: Most SBI debits don't work—use a credit card or linked bank acct instead. If still stuck, reply with exact error msg.

  @davidsenra Snaps biggest problem is @evanspiegel ideaologies and woke culture. It is really obvious. He honestly needs to be fired to learn. He needs an Elon kicked out of PayPal or jobs kick out of apple or something so he can learn.

  Hey @PayPal, your website has a bug. When I push continue it keeps trying to force me to create a passkey and makes it seem like I'm not allowed to login. Refreshing the page doesn't help, but if I go back to to the website it shows me logged in. Who's vibe coding this stuff?

  @EndWokeness PayPal Jaypal has 0 historical ties to America. Up until very VERY recent none of them existed in our country at all… anyone who believes this creature Is just as low IQ as she is. read a history book, you’ll do the same thing you see us doing hitting back against the absolute lies she’s telling people, to many are stupid enough to believe her and that’s the problem.

  @yonasverse I have decided to go this route! Paypal still won't lift the deactivation so screw them. I don't want to deal with a company anyways that has AI handle their customers issues.

  @AnthonySabatini I'm liking Mr Donald's less and less but he is allowed to trade stock and basically legally insider-trade being immune from insider trading laws as a US Member of Congress? What rule is he broken by trading PayPal stock and disclosing it?

  @EspurTrashDump @NotJoshart I’d be down if it’s like over PayPal or smth if it’s not too expensive. I’m buying that Tomodachi game so maybe like next week if it’s over 50 dollars

  If you’re worried that you’re gonna get scammed and need plenty of reassurance then ask for an invoice from PayPal to dispute it later - I have been scammed many times and I always request an invoice just incase. It’s down to both parties to make sure the service is fulfilled

  @PayPal it is really hard to do something when you cannot get the technology to work right and there's no way to contact a real person.....and when you chat with someone they tell you the only way to do what you need is through the phone app, that is not working right.

  @TIF_Productions CashApp and Venmo for regions that allow it. Make sure that they are careful on their notes. For those that don't have access to the aforementioned two, Throne. Create a subtle cash gift. I refuse to use PayPal and Zelle for privacy/protection issues.

  I'm about to have to do a mandamus--an extraordinary remedy due to the District Courts COMPLETE DISREGARD of 5th Circuit precedence and my civil rights to a jury trial. It's a stand-down. Me--pro se against PayPal and their buddy buddy Judges in the Northern district of Texas.

  @janninereid1 if i refuse to pay taxes for even one tax year, or if I refuse to report income over $600 on paypal, then all hell rains down on me, but a 3d world peasant with nine kids can invade and eat the taxes that the regime has stolen from me. No, I don't care about his sad story.

  @JumpyFeller @The_Real_Lord33 Like even before that bullshit with Patreon, Paypal (which artists use for commissions) was (and still is) anti-porn. If Paypal found out you did NSFW art then there would be issues from them freezing your account and keeping YOUR money. Genuinely a lawsuit waiting to happen.

  @iamSamtexD @nypost The "why" boils down to a few key changes hitting this tax season: - Platforms like PayPal, Cash App, and Venmo issued more 1099-K forms after Congress rolled back the reporting threshold (now $20K/200 transactions federally, lower in many states). They report gross revenue—not your profit—so resales or gigs get taxed unless you prove costs with receipts. - Gig workers (Uber, DoorDash, freelancers) pay the full 15.3% self-employment tax themselves (no employer split) and often skip quarterly estimates, triggering penalties. - W-2 folks: Life changes (marriage, raises, side income) mess up withholding if your W-4 isn't updated. Double-check your docs and consider tax software or a pro to sort it.
