  • Briars_Plastic Briar 🐀 (@Briars_Plastic) reported

    Think I'm going to go into town tomorrow to buy some stuff for my printer. Trying to figure out where I can buy some isopropyl alcohol here in the uk as I'd rather not order it online. Might end up having to, which is a problem as my paypal is a bit dry.

  • BatPonyEcho Echo 🔞 🦇 🥭 (@BatPonyEcho) reported

    @BatArtOfficcial To fix that, you use Paypal and send invoices so they can't say it's for nsfw art. Paypal sucks for sure - I'm with you on that....but that is a hugeeeeee customer base you will be losing out on otherwise :3

  • ccgcastle Richard Castle 🏴‍☠️👾 (@ccgcastle) reported

  • JRW_SocialMedia Jen (she/her) 🐧 (@JRW_SocialMedia) reported

    @kranzie85 @kennedymcmann @luckypullover Raffles can be problematic if not done properly. In many areas, raffles are considered gambling and are regulated. The charity I run almost had our PayPal shut down years ago when we learned this the hard way. Make sure you do your research first.

    @BenediktHolm @AskPayPal Hit up Allenfixx on instagram instead of wasting your time here support won’t help I’ve had this issue before he helped me out

  • cng388 cn (@cng388) reported

    @AskPayPal I’m having trouble redeeming my honey points to PayPal. I’ve tried contacting their designated customer service and it’s been over 3 weeks… no one’s responding. Can you help?

  • tapati grandmatapati on t*mblr 🇺🇦 (@tapati) reported

    Got TWO phishing attempts via text to convince me that my paypal account was in jeopardy and I should click on a link to deal with the issue. SMH...logged into paypal independently to send someone money and of course it was just fine as I knew it would be.

  • LadyYStories Faye Fatale (@LadyYStories) reported

    @OakyFlavours @CubsVgl his terrible business decisions. Instead he got lucky and had his failing company bought out by PayPal and he has used that capital to constantly fail upward by profiting off the labor of actual smart people. 2/

  • breasharronfit Brea Sharron Estep (@breasharronfit) reported

    Anyone else have @PayPal @AskPayPal problems? Fraud charges on my biz account, been on hold for 2+ hours, help chat just restated my question… is there even a call center or am I just wasting my time on hold?

  • dsabar Devan Sabaratnam (@dsabar) reported

    In the past, we've seen this with the likes of Google, Paypal etc., but lately, companies like Basecamp, Stripe, Shopify, Gumroad etc. seem to be going down that familiar road. As an avoidance tactic for my own startup, I'd like to learn about when the rot seems to set in.

    @Match No answer to me having a major problem, and 1st alerting privately by email, then PUBLICLY shaming... 1hr reply is expected for a GLOBAL 24/7 company.. You can take money 24/7, you can talk to customers 24/7! We'll can through PayPal now, as claim filed.

  • AlluneArt Allune✨Comms Open 𐐪𐑂 Emote Artist (@AlluneArt) reported

    @ymuwii The problem is PayPal takes a fee when I convert from usd to nzd. But if people pay directly into nzd then I don't think I lose any money.

  • pryceisrightx Maya Pryce (@pryceisrightx) reported

    @j_prxo try his number on paypal and/or cashapp. try searching his first and last name too. i’m crazy. i’ll give u all the advice on how to track a dude down

  • Vats_The_Fool vats3 (@Vats_The_Fool) reported

    @PufferJiggly @JejeNazariel That really is what it comes down to honestly, alot of other sites just feel so shady while paypal kinda sell you on a certain level of realiability

  • xmorera Xavier Morera (@xmorera) reported

    @matthlerner Too bad you are ex @PayPal because IMHO one of their customer-killer problems is how much it sucks to use their recurring invoices panel. It would be so nice to have a better search and an easier way to identify what each invoice is about. @AskPayPal

  • BenediktHolm Benedikt (@BenediktHolm) reported

    @AskPayPal Hi, you seem to have permanently suspended my account without reason. Where can I resolve this issue aside from through your legal department?

  • NEO_NoiseBomb NEO_NoiseBomb (@NEO_NoiseBomb) reported

    @FckedLynx The price was around $60. The background affects the price as well. Do keep in mind that he doesn't use Paypal, he uses a different app called Payoneer. If there is trouble sending him the payment I can help out in that situation.

    @aTinyDom @discord And not to sound hyperbolic but he has all my passwords stored on my Google account. Every login for every site I've ever stored. My card details. My PayPal details. I'm a victim of fraud here and I can't even get a response from discord
