    @catturd2 If you would all send me your Paypal account login information, I'd be happy to close your accounts for you.

  • viralchats I identify as a Menace. (@viralchats) reported

    @AskPayPal It's not an issue, its a feature that is not there - later that day the bank card was added to the Apple wallet - and it worked fine. So question: why could I add a card on the PP app [go through bank security] to find I cant pay with it 'contactless' like in apple wallet?

  • BlackJJosh joshua (@BlackJJosh) reported

    @stillgray I condemn PayPal, but I don’t think more regulation is the right solution. The bigger problem is not PayPal, it’s the upstream regulations that make it so difficult for anybody to compete with PayPal.

  • R_L_A_G Ms. Osaka (@R_L_A_G) reported

    In fact if you actually go through the #SuePayPal tag, It seems PayPal has already an extortion problem without changing their terms of service.

  • CurtMonash Curt Monash (@CurtMonash) reported

    @AskWorkspace 2/ The first is a meta issue. I was asked to pay for your service. I paid. Paypal tells me you accepted my money. Yet when I tried to get support through other means, I was told that I was a free customer who doesn't get supported.

    Just Shut Down My PayPal Account.....Go Woke Go Broke...

  • Tickets_sold Tickettothemoon (@Tickets_sold) reported

    @dave_r76 Recently... No. I speak more truth than most people can handle. Are you hoping a privately held company will coddle your belief system? The issue here is what PayPal can do. They are not a public good or govt sponsored. What's your argument here? 🤔

  • ElizabethInOhio Elizabeth Schmucker (@ElizabethInOhio) reported

    @ScottAdamsSays @chadfelixg Just paid off my PayPal credit card. Will be shutting down the PayPal account and PayPal credit card down with in the month. Faafo

    looking to buy NA valorant account must have illinois as an accessible server <3 willing to pay max $30 USD will only pay via PayPal G&S for buyer & seller protection.

  • astroolger L♡MyFreedom 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 (@astroolger) reported

    @stillgray So that's probably why they keep sending my messages to update my account. Lol! Nope. Stopped using PayPal 5 yrs ago when I stopped selling on ebay. Both are terrible.

  • oldturtle77 slowly we go (@oldturtle77) reported

    @ScottAdamsSays @8simon9 It’s part of the merchant’s agreement to allow transfers directly into and out of the account. I believe all the cleaning houses require it, to fix disputes. Best to only keep current transactions in the account. I’ve sold my PayPal stock and closed my personal account.

  • JoeSmithSDK Joe Smith SDK (@JoeSmithSDK) reported

    Paypal to Fine Users $2500 and even pull it from your bank account by force if you post none state sanctions information....this slow walk to fascism is getting kinda frightening.

  • AselinCorinne Corinne Aselin (@AselinCorinne) reported

    @AskAmex I’m having a major problem with receiving a credit that was issued to me through PayPal. I’ve been going back and forth with Ancestry, PayPal and AMEX. Nobody wants to take care of this and now AMEX has closed the dispute and PayPal claims they cannot give me the refun

  • BioHazMan Biohazardous 🇺🇸 (@BioHazMan) reported

    @ChuckCallesto I got a quick and easy fix for this. Ditch your PayPal account if you have one.

  • ShaneMe95815126 Sean Kane (@ShaneMe95815126) reported

    @Jules31415 Please provide link. I will stop using paypal, they have many issues with convenience, anyways.

  • spikestabber bren the autistic bear 4x💉rabies 🐻 (@spikestabber) reported

    @stillgray Paypal did everything they could to avoid ever being regulated like a bank, we all complained about it over a decade ago; but reap what never gets dealt with; the problem is multi-fold now.

  • ballpark_frank Francis Lalonde (@ballpark_frank) reported

    Easy fix: Don't promote misinformation. Side note: the (claimed) former PayPal users are attempting to find other avenues for conducting 'dark money' transactions ...

  • IronBandicoot 👈👆this is not a Bandicoot (@IronBandicoot) reported

    @TheFIREorg A business can refuse service in certain circumstances. But they can’t just take their money. That’s theft. Banking regulators need to come down hard on PayPal for this.

  • da_gandy GandyDaGrey (@da_gandy) reported

    @iamtrishacoy @PayPal Yes, paypal is the problem

  • Tenji95 The cutie Goat-Fox that says Mew! A lot. 🐐🦊✍🏼 (@Tenji95) reported

    If I setup a PayPal pool to crowdfund to pay off my medical debt, would y’all support it? I’d really appreciate the help! Please provide feedback down below!

  • Mumbojimbo J!m Keller (@Mumbojimbo) reported

    @KSCUBKEE I left @PayPal when a stranger sent me $ in error, and instead of PayPal leaving it up to that person to figure out, it was MY issue and *I* had to defend my case. The whole thing seemed like a scam, and thankfully I came out unscathed. But no interest in repeating.

  • KelpieJethro Alan Lindabery (@KelpieJethro) reported

    @stillgray IMO a massive $100 billion discrimination class action lawsuit from all PayPal users against PayPal should bring the hammer down on them. Each PayPal user can contribute one dollar to the fund to pay the lawyers and then we’ll split up the $100 billion dollars when they lose

  • Mark129988 Mark M (@Mark129988) reported

    @Joshuajammes I just went to my Paypal User Agreement and selected Acceptable Use and it came up blank. Maybe they realized a problem with this?
