Ronnie Irby - Crazy Cajun (@RonnieIrby1951) reported@GretchenPSmith @PayPal @AskPayPal I hear You Ms. Gretchen, in 2008, PayPal employees in Accounting, stole my money, after I paid a $12.00 invoice for selling a car. They sold my info, and 2 places got all of my money out of my account. I luckily had a sister working for AT&T and I had references & Numbers on the transactions they used, and found them. I call FBI, but I was able to get every penny of my money back by 4:30 PM that day. FBI asked me how I did that, I refused to tell them, methods they can't legally use. But ever since I Refuse to Use PayPal! I was so mad at Mr. Elon for selling, I had no issues while he was there. I am praying for you & the Veterans to Get The Money You raised for them! That is Horrible!!!! GOD BLESS YOU & YOURS!!

MeridianAI (@MeridianSentry) reported@NoLimitGains PayPal’s stock is at the same price it was in 2016. Revenue is up 207%. Profit is up 271%. Everyone reads that and assumes the stock is cheap. The market is saying something different. A price that won’t move despite improving numbers usually means the market doesn’t believe the numbers are the point anymore. PayPal’s problem isn’t profitability — it’s that nobody thinks about PayPal when they pay for something. Apple Pay, Zelle, Venmo. The business got bigger while the brand got quieter. Strong fundamentals in a fading narrative is a different trade than it looks. #Stocks #Markets

Darijan Ducic (@darijan___) reportedI find the Elon hate so funny. People can’t compliment his work without the disclaimer “I don’t like him BUT…” Relax. The guy made $180M from PayPal and put THE WHOLE thing back into building the next thing. He made all of Tesla’s electric vehicle patents public allowing for competition. And his SpaceX IPO has made 4,400 employees millionaires who otherwise wouldn’t be. So if you’re angry about him becoming the world’s first trillionaire because ‘nobody should be that rich’ or you don’t like his opinions… Remember he’s probably working harder than most of us today not relaxing on a yacht somewhere. And if everyone shared the same opinions the world would be seriously dull. Let’s take the lessons and learn from his success instead of putting him down to make ourselves look good. You can learn from him without liking him or agreeing with him. I think it’s probably smart to do so.

Vermilion | VGen (@QAVermilion) reported@Colour_awr @_VGen_ @PayPal Wa. (File a counter issue, show all proof of delivery and that they use the VGen service. If they still side with the scammer, do check the law in your country and basically threaten them, they should revert back the funds to you.)

Theoderic (@PerseusAgathos) reportedThe difference between Elon Musk and many of his critics is that everything Elon Musk has was given voluntarily, while his critics rely on coercion to get what they want. People chose to place their wealth in Elon's ventures. They looked at what he did and contributed because it looked good. Then it turned out that the products worked very well. Most of the companies are also doing things that haven't been done before. They are expanding the possibilities for human life on Earth and beyond. They have been providing massive value to a wide range of people. For instance, Tesla is a win-win: an American company with American manufacturing jobs that makes highly-rated cars people love, while at the same time reducing reliance on fossil fuels. People will say that his companies have used government contracts, loans, and programs. Nobody should deny the importance of government. But nobody would be buying the products if they were bad. Musk never forced these programs that he benefitted from on anybody. They were available and he made the best possible use of them. He could have abandoned innovating after Paypal but instead he chose to put that money into further ventures. His net worth is derived from his own risk-taking and dreams that other people decided were worthwhile investments. His critics, on the other hand, would use the power of the state to force money to be taken and moved to other, much less productive purposes. In doing so, no value will be created and much will be lost. Even more importantly, the attacks reveal a staggering ingratitude and stupidity. Here's a guy we stumbled upon who created a bunch of companies that actually make real stuff,stuff that's never been made before so well and at this scale, and they do much of it in America. While I acknowledge that lawmakers might accidentally fund some future innovator like Musk with their schemes, what kind of message do they send to such people when they denigrate a man like Elon Musk? They are not simply arguing that we as a society should look at the issue of inequality. They are displaying a stunning lack of common sense and economic illiteracy in the assumption that the world is zero-sum, that the money should simply be "re-directed" to alleviate social problems. They send a very clear message that success on the level that Musk has achieved will not be tolerated. They want their goals exactly as they want them and without any dissenting views, as Musk is known for having.

KGB Komrad (@KGBKomrad) reported@COV_VP @codeofvets @stripe I did see this. After I raised the original issue. The new system is far better than PayPal. Just be aware that their system will try to add a company to your registration. They tried adding my Condo association to my registration because I pay dues online.

NotNicole💗 (@NotNicole90) reported@raxkadess Girls, don't trust him. He asks to pay through PayPal Goods and Services just to file for a refund later. Plus, he reports accounts. Save yourselves the trouble and don't sell to him #buyingcontent

Kayrab Thee Rabizm (@DreadLock_Gamer) reported@FedericoBa71889 @MarcoFoster_ @KyleKulinski So he didn't create it, he funded it with generational wealth earned from his parents who are in mining. But even then: Outside of America PayPal was never that popular. Tesla makes terrible vehicles and electric vehicles are worse for the environment currently.

Big Brain AI (@realBigBrainAI) reportedOracle Co-Founder and Chairman Larry Ellison on why AI is fundamentally different from every tech bubble that came before it: He starts with the internet bubble — not to warn us, but to make a distinction most people are missing. "When people talk about bubbles, what is a bubble? People get exuberant. But the internet was an incredible new technology. It remains the foundation of computing, and we couldn't have AI without the internet." The technology was never the problem. The confusion was. "People started confusing internet companies like PayPal, or even worse internet search, with pets/com." He breaks it down simply: "The fact that I can sell pet food on an e-commerce site doesn't suddenly mean I'm an internet company. Not really." PayPal used the web to build something genuinely new. Pets/com just moved an existing business online and called it innovation. Same label. Completely different substance. He sees the pattern repeating today: "Yes, there'll be people spending money on AI because almost every tech company these days calls themselves an AI company. But they're not. A lot of them are not." But here is where Ellison draws the line between then and now. The internet was foundational. But AI is something else entirely: "AI in terms of its value, this is the highest value technology we have ever seen. By far."

zaezae66* (@lynnarmitage7) reported@livysmith99 @JamesMc89631483 liv just done it, paid by paypal, put the extra 87p so they'd be no processing fee's, but no problems at all.

Anna Goshorn (@GoshornAnna) reported@libsoftiktok @PayPal I got rid of paypal a long time ago. They are terrible!!

Nathan 👨🍳 (@OriodofeNathan) reported@madamayo_ The PayPal part is my issue
-
None of These Candidates (@noneofthesecand) reported@libsoftiktok @PayPal They're garbage. I have a few bucks sitting there that can't be moved unless I give them time of KYC. I told them ***. This is why people need NON-CUSTODIAL crypto and wallets. CakeWallet and Monero fix this. BTC has claims but it's a fully traceable NFT.

G (@NewMusic) reported@Brownmoose Nope it can easily turn into PayPal or Adobe. If I had to buy anything that’s been beaten down it’ll be Microsoft.

Glenn 🇺🇲⚓️ (@gcanderson57) reported@OldGloryBank @johnrich Is there any sort of service you guys have or can create to help her. She's always used PayPal in the past, however I suspect like everything else now days her problem is being caused by an AI.

large egg (@LargestofEggs) reported@l0serbitchgirl Chargebacks are a bad issue on Paypal so I wouldn't bother Premiumchat seems pretty fun and easy

さとう/Skeb.VGen (@sdus1017) reportedCurrently, to prevent problems, we are only accepting requests via X DM from individuals whose online activity on platforms such as streaming and video can be verified, and only with a "full prepayment via PayPal/no illustration revisions" system.

Game-****-strong (@Game_cockstrong) reported@Saladinbraham Ppl said the same thing with PayPal... Very similar story tbh. Not working out so well for them
-
Prometheus Unbound (@jimmcerlean2025) reported@GretchenPSmith @PayPal @AskPayPal They do this all the time . They locked my account when a client tried to send a down payment and said they were protecting him from s scam . They then reinstated my account 2 hours later . I got so pissed off I refused to do the job .

Your Highness (@QueenLiaRegina) reportedIt’s interesting that fintech didn’t start out tight at women receiving money for nothing and calling it **********. Some of the established women still have no issue using Paypal or Stripe… but 0th3r$
-
Santino the Archangel (@Santino_1964) reported.@PayPal why would you do this? Terrible terrible look and business practice.
-
Neville Thumbcatch (@NThumbcatch) reportedSerious question... Has PayPal ALWAYS been this ******* ****? Locked out of my account for 24 hours. Rang the helpline - 'Sorry, there's nothing we can do, we're having issues with our system.' A score of 1.3 on Trustpilot seems generous.
-
🟩 Silver Fang ⬛️ (@ThatStripedFox) reportedOkay so honest question for those following me, this artist owes me like $310 in coms and I havent gotten a single one for a LONG time, way past the time PayPal could issue refund so what do I do? This is honestly a new experience for me :/ I feel the money is just gone.

SaveAmerica 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 (@Bessadeline21) reported@codeofvets @PayPal @PayPal isn't worth the trouble. IF you are successful in using them again, you will never be able to trust they won't do it again. There are so many other safe options. Count it as a blessing, and never think of them again.

Matthew Rife (@RifeTechnology) reported@GretchenPSmith @PayPal What happened? I saw that they locked you down this morning, but then saw that you got access back. They got you again after that?
-
William Hyland 🇺🇲 (@TankaByBill) reported@codeofvets @PayPal @stripe I have to agree with you. I have had serious issues with PayPal and a far smaller account. At this point, I do not believe they can be trusted.

Alexis (@CANDYGRAM30) reported@codeofvets @PayPal @AskPayPal 1. For Financial and Payment DisputesIf you are having an issue with unauthorized transactions, billing, or locked accounts, file a complaint with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. You can report them here Google with more info.
