  @Jayworkit If you're having trouble with GBP on Weverse, you might want to check out Ktown4u or Makestar next time! They usually handle different currencies like GBP much better and even accept PayPal. It’s always good to have a backup site just in case! 🥺

  @zachbussey Streamlabs doesn't have a safe payment for tipping. It's Paypal ONLY. And making a business paypal doesn't always work as over the 11 years I've streamed, every time I tried setting it up it still released your private information. Losing SEPay would be a MAJOR loss. I'm suspicious it's true they are going down because they have ignored 7 separate emails from shorting me on a sponsorship.

  @unblueable1 PayPal holding the money because of unusual activity? Been there... Had that issue because of many individuals donations coming in to PayPal, I'd have preferred to pool it and cash it out all at once like weekly, but here we are

  @PayPal , on top of being by far the most expensive payment provider (topped only by @Klarna), you also do not offer the option to withdraw foreign currencies in anything other than our local currency (EUR). If I do want to withdraw, you force a conversion in which for about 4.000 EUR you take 150 EUR fee. Your web app being completely broken and your support useless is then the final slap in the face. Shameful.

  @Spookidusk Ugh, this is terrible! If you sent payment through PayPal you could theoretically do a chargeback since it hasn't hit the 6 month mark- if you are comfortable w that and feel you have no other options. If you wanted, I'd be happy to draw something for you for funzies <3

  @SOU_BTC This is the shift from chat to execution. Claude for Small Business plugs directly into QuickBooks, PayPal, HubSpot, Google Workspace. Payroll. Invoicing. Monthly close. Ad creation. Automated. But the adoption question is harder than the technology question. A small business owner isn’t an IT department. Someone still has to connect the integrations, configure the workflows, and trust the output. And AI still makes mistakes on ambiguous tasks - a misread invoice or a wrongly categorized expense isn’t a minor bug when it’s your balance sheet. The enterprise layer solved this with dedicated implementation teams. The SMB layer doesn’t have that luxury. And there’s a harder constraint underneath the implementation problem. AI can prepare the payroll. It cannot certify it. AI can draft the invoice. It cannot legally sign it. In most jurisdictions, financial documents, tax filings, and audit reports require a certified human signature - a professional who engages their legal liability. Claude can do 80% of the work. The last 20% - the part that counts legally - still needs a human with credentials and accountability. Until AI has legal standing to certify, it’s a very powerful assistant. Not a replacement. How long before regulation catches up to the technology - and should it?

  Anyways! Half of my grocery order didn’t arrive, I ****** up PayPal and might’ve lost $ because I sent the wrong person the adopt money (got it the second time and now I gotta wait on PayPal to fix it) But more FFXIV tomorrow (Warrior yay!) *internal screaming*

  @ryancohen I just read that post and it resonated with me. I used to sell on eBay in the early 2000’s. I’ve completely stopped. I just logged in to my old account which is still active. The fact that I used to use it a ton, I even had an ebay store, and have not logged in for a decade is indicative of a problem with eBay. By the way I know it’s somewhat unrelated, but PayPal has brutal customer service. I just wasted an hour on the phone with them this evening.

  @AskPayPal PLEASE HAVE A HUMAN CONTACT ME ASAP! YOUR "customer support" is the biggest comedy of errors since the bard!

  EDIT: Due to a recent error with paypal, I will not be taking specifically invoices. You can however still use the paypal link I give you, or ko-fi. (I lost $40. It was not the commissioner's fault at all, this was entirely paypal being buggy)

  @exisbread I have the fees built into my prices because you are losing 10% with those fees. I always offer my friends either Vgen commissions or direct Paypal/Cashapp payment to save money. If they want the Vgen protection that is not a problem, but I am not losing money over it.

  @AskPayPal Hey Thieves! I am awaiting a large refund for you that was ALREADY REFUNDED by the seller. I gave you the refund code and you keep leading me in senseless circles saying that the case was closed and no error or refund made. You are better than this--or so I thought!

  PayPal just froze your funds for 180 days. Ads still running. Suppliers still want payment. This is what happens when your business runs on a personal PayPal tied to your real name. The fix isn't a stealth account. It's a proper HK company with a business PayPal. DM "HK"

  Hey @PayPal - you got a problem. Your sign in page is an ugly blank page with the text, "Please enable JS and disable any ad blocker." I'm not disabling my ad blocker (with @brave), and JS isn't disabled on my browser. Please fix.

  @ThatUnusMF @_ViviVovo_ I personally do not think it is worth it. I have one because I thought it would be a good business model but I have used it maybe once cuz I just thought it low key kinda sucked. I just use paypal and have never had an issue.
