    @AskPayPal I need help with a closed case from an ongoing issue. I have timestamped proof of an on-time cancellation, but your resolution center closed it unfairly and charged me after all. It was a trial from Adobe and cancelled it right on time! You both ghosted me! @grok help

    @ZapotX @PayPal Maybe, maybe not, I have friends who do the same thing and haven't had any problems, and besides, paypal won't tell me why

    Of course I have no proof other than my guy lol PayPal is strict but ...Yes and no, the no isn't in the sense where they are doing something wrong. However, they only issue income tax papers IF they have a business number for her. They don't require this at least from Ontario Canadians BC there is an income earned threshold where we HAVE TO have a buness number. PayPal can and does ask but again it's not required until they ask for it. I've a business account for 2 decades. They asked me for a business number only 6-7 months ago.

    The Singapore concert, last minute had some Western Union issue with the TS account . I had already paid a small amount for my queue with no problem but while paying a bigger amount something went wrong. TS did not have PayPal. So I thought will try for WE FM in Taipei but again KKTIX platform my mobile could not be verified inspite of multiple mails coz for The top tier tickets it needed to be verified 😭😭😭. Here also I paid about 4USD to Queue :( My badluck. I'm just hoping my luck won't be the same for WE concert coz I really really need it for so many reasons will tell you when and if we meet 🥹

    @zetaxion @paga @oviosu Hi, I can confirm that this issue with your Paypal access via Paga has been resolved, and you are now able to log in. If you have other concerns, do let us know. Paga cares.

  • aliihsanozturkk

    @bksolomon That sounds like a payment/order synchronization issue not evidence that the wallet itself is unsafe. If PayPal shows the payment completed but no Tangem order was created, shoot me a DM so I can trace the payment & arrange a refund Do you have the PayPal transaction ID?

    at PayPal we had a rule: systems must fail safe, not fail open. when something breaks, it locks down, it doesn't fling the doors open. same rule for AI agents: when unsure, it should stop and ask, not confidently guess. design for the bad day.

    Bench shut down in December and customers lost access to their own books. Quillfox is the alternative: a 24/7 AI bookkeeping agent that watches bank, Stripe, and PayPal, chases invoices, flags duplicates, and closes a clean P&L each month. Live soon.

    My Glitch poster arrived and it says the Animegaz arrived too... but it didn't show up yet. I'm praying it's a mistake on how its typed out on PayPal tracking. I got the poster from the door the same minute the door rang so I don't think it could of been stolen like that, idk.

  • JaynenotJanie
    Jayne : stand your ground (@JaynenotJanie) reported

    @KissMyCarol Too much de-banking and platforms making decisions based on social credit. I know the D banking has greatly improved and is likely not going to come back in a big way. But I had a PayPal account and they had put out several years ago that if you made unacceptable statements on social media Facebook etc. that they would confiscate up to $2500 from your bank account And sequester that money for your PayPal purchases. So I eliminated my PayPal account and I refuse to work with any corporation that threatens me. I don't think that X will do anything like that but I don't know what will happen down the road and I just don't trust what already happened to me Also how's your first night of retirement?

    Ripple's CEO just explained why #XRP exists in under 2 minutes no jargon: Venmo can't send to PayPal, even though PayPal owns Venmo. That's how broken our payment networks are. Now scale that to sending money overseas: slow, expensive, and it can vanish for weeks. Ripple's fix: sell the tech to banks worldwide. 4 second settlement, fractions of a penny, anywhere on Earth. Customers don't care it runs on XRP. They just care that it works.
