    @UMG @ArianaGrande Your merch process is truly terrible. #ARIANA351343 was paid in full $579.30 on 10/31/2020. Did not receive the merch by Dec. and disputed the charges. Either refund PAYPAL or send the merch. WORST CUST SERV EXPERIENCE EVER!!! Artists can do so much better.

    @PayPal how do we close an account if we cannot login and the phone number is wrong to reset password? Tried calling you but you make it impossible to talk.

    @AskPlayStation Yes I tried visa, MasterCard, debit and even PayPal and got the same error message. We are in Canada and I checked and everything I have set up on the PlayStation is in Canada as well. I cannot add my child to the account therefore I cannot control the time he plays etc...

    Paypal allowing trading of 4 coins literally feels like a deep rooted scam to freeze billions in cash. Holds sell for 3 days and majority of the time shows error when you wanna sell. #paypal #PayPalChristmas #Paypalslave

  • stephen9626 Stephen (@stephen9626) reported

    @AskeBay I rec an email saying that $ was being withdrawn from my acct for $ owed! The reason for this was I didn’t have enough available $ to pay what was owed for prev transactions! Problem is I had over $300 in PayPal account! You took $ from last sell to cover EBay charges.

  • MrsWillis20 Mrs Willis (@MrsWillis20) reported

    last night I got into a stupid fight with my sister in which she outed me to my parents about being trans. I’m kind of at my brink of what I can handle living here so I’m gonna post my PayPal, Venmo, kofi, and Patreon down below cause I want to get out. #signalboost

    @Daytobehappy I used to sell on ebay used PayPal money was easy to get had no problems

  • MarkCrypto8 Crypto Mark Ⓥ (@MarkCrypto8) reported

    @Rawcliffe419 @coinbase @PayPal I think this is probably cause you are using the mobile app. If you actually login to coinbase via the website on a browser from a PC/tablet, there a few questions you need to answer and then your account restrictions will probably be removed.

  • EnderEnby Hopkinz (@EnderEnby) reported

    @TheRetroSpecter Ask them their age at the top and if it's under 15 or something you know what it *could* be Genuinely unsure how to fix that though, unless it's a form through paypal or something which I don't think is possible

  • JakubTesarek Jakub Tesárek 🥊 (@JakubTesarek) reported

    @JonoCodes @PayPal I opened the issue myself from paypal site that I cant close my account. Suupprt responded that they will not allow it unless I provide my statement or a copy of lease and a adress. All within the website, cert seems legit

  • timchap Tim Chapman (@timchap) reported

    payment will be expected through paypal. every tiny painting comes with a tiny freebie (stickers or cute accessories, possibly even tiny bags of sweets if you as for that) the price cannot go down. there's no such a thing as friends/family discount, they pay the same amount
