  • Karen_J_McLean Karen J McLean (@Karen_J_McLean) reported from Saint John West, New Brunswick/Nouveau-Brunswick

    When I wrote you back and explain the problem with screenshots as proof of purchase, I got a mild lecture about not sending certain information (info that you could probably see via PayPal, but fair enough) and instructions on where to find a certain transaction code. (3/ )

  • Garsid20Garside Stephen Ted Garside 🇬🇧 (@Garsid20Garside) reported

    @mattletiss7 @LeeHurstComic @PayPal I closed mine 2 days ago. All my friends are doing the same.. Getting too big for the boots these organisations and they need taking down a peg and this is the best way to do it.. #PayPal

  • parkwonchaee sam (@parkwonchaee) reported

    I’ve been coughing blood lately, having trouble breathing, and my chest feels heavy. I’d appreciate it very much, you can donate through gcash or paypal

  • blondiesaint Jane (@blondiesaint) reported

    @THEJamesWhale Never had problems with them at all. In fact because I paid for something through PayPal and it turned out to not be as advertised I told company I would use Paypal Resolution Centre to get monies back and they quickly paid up,

  • hippyjon hippyjon (@hippyjon) reported

    @MickeyMarxClub To be fair, PayPal is terrible

  • quantick David Quantick (@quantick) reported

    Baldy and the Nutters have been shut down by the PayPal Nuncio. #satire

  • Branchaleenie 🇻🇨 Worrier Princess ✨ (@Branchaleenie) reported

    That man can't even fix a pothole in his constituency (that he undoubtedly driving over daily) but can fix the PayPal issue? Lol k

  • easycouncil Alison Black (@easycouncil) reported

    @LozzaFox It is over, you'll be losing subs that will never return. You'll have to go back to 'acting'. The government has enough on their plate without you cry babies wanting your (self created) problems solved. Nice one Paypal 🦾

  • safcpete67 safcpete 🇬🇧 (@safcpete67) reported

    Anyone who thinks a cashless society will be great need to look at PayPal currently shutting down accounts whose values they don’t agree with. Then think about what that might mean to all of us if we go totally electronic. Canada already did this to the truckers. Lebanon also.

    Close down your PayPal accounts people, absolutely disgusting platform

  • daddygooner83 Jöe the gooner (@daddygooner83) reported

    @TabsViv @mattletiss7 @PayPal Why is everyone closing their accounts? I only use it for ebay and never had a problem.

  • KenTheroux Ken Theroux 🛎 (@KenTheroux) reported

    PayPal has been shutting down “problematic” accounts for (at least) 6-8 years now. After the outrage fades, people will get distracted by another Martha’s Vineyard-y sideshow, and then get outraged again after they shut down more accounts. No direction + distraction + reaction

  • CapersDaquan Chuck_Eazy (@CapersDaquan) reported

    @AskPayPal this service is terrible . Don’t use @PayPal

  • stef_benson Benson (@stef_benson) reported

    @localzuk @mattfreshfield @TheRealJackDee Paypal and twitter arent the same thing. Paypal provides financial services, its not a message board that needs to be policed from harmful content. Would you be happy with your bank closing down your account if it didnt agree with your views?

  • JackieBear1872 Jackie #WomanWontWheesht (@JackieBear1872) reported

    @thecoastguy I did but cancelled it after they started banning accounts. My sons got hacked and PayPal were terrible dealing with it. Best advice is don't have one or close it if you do.

  • stef_benson Benson (@stef_benson) reported

    @DaveFernig @mattfreshfield @TheRealJackDee I agree global warming is one of the biggest threats in the world right now. Its not the point, the specific issue is irrelevant If Paypal get bought out by OPEC would you be ok with them deplatforming anti-global warming campaigners?

  • SteveSaint76 The Saint (@SteveSaint76) reported

    Can someone explain to me in layman’s terms (I.e. idiot language) what the issue with PayPal is? I feel I’ve missed something? 🤔

  • stef_benson Benson (@stef_benson) reported

    @WobblyOSausage @mattfreshfield @TheRealJackDee And you're confusing Paypal with Twitter. If you dont see the problem with financial service providers shutting down the accounts of people who've broken no laws, just because they disagree with them, then theres little I can say to you

  • bloomingwriter Jodi DeLong 🌻🪴🌼 (@bloomingwriter) reported

    @Karen_J_McLean You're talking to yourself here, not to @canva . Real easy solution. Put in a complaint to PayPal, and share your issues far and wide (no one needs mansplainers or shoddy apps).

  • 0T70RPERISH niha⁷|| ia || RUSH HOUR IS YTC 😌 (@0T70RPERISH) reported

    Is anyone facing an issue with Weverse Paypal payment ???

  • bobby_jags Robert John (@bobby_jags) reported

    @BTNStu @TheRealJackDee Stu I have been a victim of this. PayPal have refused to pay me contributions from people who have contributed to my writing, returning funds, other people have been closed down too. This whole area is something which needs better regulation but corporate gatekeepers is not good.

  • CapersDaquan Chuck_Eazy (@CapersDaquan) reported

    @PayPal is terrible don’t use that service

    @AskPayPal I can’t believe that there’s people trying to get a job and you keep using the AI to solve your customers problems. It sucks badly put some human behind the phones. It is much better.

  • grumpyoldhector Ленні 🇺🇦 🌻 🇪🇺 🌹 ϟ ® (@grumpyoldhector) reported

    @TheRealJackDee Didn't have you down as a PayPal kind of *** So gather you are taking the slash

  • stef_benson Benson (@stef_benson) reported

    @DaveFernig @mattfreshfield @TheRealJackDee Agreed. But youre confusing twitter and paypal, paypal arent publishers, they provide financial services, including credit. Would you be happy for your bank to shut down your account because the people who run the bank have different views to you?

  • LauralWilson2 Football Mom (@LauralWilson2) reported

    @UsforThemUK @PayPalUK PayPal shut our 40th High School Reunion Account down and retained the funds too - such garbage - we had a website and there was nothing fraudulent about it - said they would refund money in 180 days - what a joke - they still have it - THIEVES

  • ChildersConst Childers Construction Company (@ChildersConst) reported

    @UsforThemUK @PayPalUK PayPal are THIEVES - they shut our high school reunion account down and retained the money - saying it would be refunded in 180 days - well its been over 180 days and crickets - they absolutely SUCK -
