    @splinterlands what is going on with the PayPal portion of the game, y’all need to figure that out. Some use that because it’s easier to grab potions instead of spending DEC. how long will it be down?

    @RahzKat bad, are they dont think ive ever gone thru a paypal problem you have to ask the seller

  • DarkWolf80s 𝗗𝗮𝗿𝗸𝗪𝗼𝗹𝗳𝟴𝟬𝘀 (@DarkWolf80s) reported

    @MrsRetrotink @retrotink2 I appreciate that but I have specifically made mention of the address correction and issues with using the one based from my PayPal. Which is why I have made personal note and emailed to Mike about the correct address. Kindly have a look at that chat log.

    @kaerumy @sinarproject Question remains: its hard to setup a non-profit, but if you can setup whatever to get a bank account in malaysia, are you saying you can't setup paypal/stripe/e-wallet/crypto without issue? no one is asking for tax deductibles here... just methods of payment

  • hortense_bront Hortense Brontlesworth (@hortense_bront) reported

    @DoorDash_Help Since you have no reasonable means to report a site problem: your paypal integration (on the web site) is currently busted. Existing saved payments are gone and attempting to re-add it succeeds on the paypal side but your site fails to handle it.

  • yummeiko Remi | commissions open (@yummeiko) reported

    Paypal has been giving me trouble when it comes to non Americans so I apologize for delays and potentially having to send you back your money. I wanted to make a public statement as this has happened multiple times now.

  • beauxbeautyblog Beaux Beauty (Renee) (@beauxbeautyblog) reported

    @shotheekwe Will have to be a court issue. PayPal is guaranteed is only valid if it's not friends/family. If you used a bank account, debit card, or credit card as opposed to PayPal balance, you may be able to file a fraud claim with your bank/credit card company. So sorry this happened 😢

  • AllinTheEye Foolish (@AllinTheEye) reported

    @AmazonHelp Theyre responses are not making sense but then you cant speak to them. This is what happened to paypal before too. They started off great then became too big and started being terrible

  • aalydian Alydian (@aalydian) reported

    @nvctve it was still available but literally after i pressed pay in paypal it yeeted an error message at me that L isn't available anymore. probably someone else got the hoodie exactly a few seconds before me. :(

  • Zyme_1 Zyme, BSN, RN (@Zyme_1) reported

    @AshNicholsArt @Linkara19 Always go directly to paypal and independently login. Never click on links, these are classic phishing links.

  • LuciLou45504108 Luci Lou (@LuciLou45504108) reported

    @isawitfirst_CS PayPal have now raised a dispute for my refund. You should be ashamed and embarrassed!! Your Customer Service is appalling! 4 days to respond is not acceptable. So many other customers having problems getting their refunds - what on EARTH is going on Company needs investigation

    @AskPlayStation help please. can't add paypal account, my card not working either.

  • HinesLauri Lauri Hines (@HinesLauri) reported

    @AskPayPal @Dan_Schulman WTH PayPal? I have been a customer since 2000, no issues. PayPal just froze my accounts saying too much money was going through. No one bothered to see that the payments were from Airbnb and not a Colombian cartel (1)

  • hatscarforabadg Hat scarf or a badge (@hatscarforabadg) reported

    Sorted the problem with PayPal so if you ordered yesterday you would have got a rejection email for payment not received,so if you order again it should be fine thanks 👍🏼

  • AdeldMeyer Adel (@AdeldMeyer) reported

    @Nicjournalist Hi Nick I suggest you start finding an alternative way to get your support because PayPal shuts down accounts like yours instantly for 'you know what' reasons...

  • Ashraf39166786 Ashraf (@Ashraf39166786) reported

    Buyer also claimed that password is not working i asked him to go and reset password as gamil belongs to him and only he can reset password but he denied and only asked money. @PayPal @AskPayPal Add my these tweets to my dispute case and resolve this as soon as possible. Thanks

  • ErikaJGilbert Erika Gilbert (@ErikaJGilbert) reported
