  • kelsed2020 Not a cat (@kelsed2020) reported

    I do a lot if business with #PayPal. I have no issue with their policies. I don't spread disinformation. It's not that hard. #SaturdayMorning

  • DeeDeeBlvd DeeDee 🌺 (@DeeDeeBlvd) reported

    @applypressure27 @stillgray You are dim if you think PayPal has any authority to arbitrarily fine people on some biased code of ethics conduct. If they have an issue they can delete/ban the account but, forcing a $2500 fine per infraction sounds very much like fraud & theft.

  • VacaWithMully Mully (@VacaWithMully) reported

    @stilup1 @Sirjinx5 @PayPal I just closed my credit account, took me about 5min. I didn't have a balance so that's probably why. If you have a balance then it has to be paid down which could take a couple of days to process. Now I have to wait 24-hours to close the PayPal account itself.

  • mrpeculiart Mr Pecu 🔜 MFF (@mrpeculiart) reported

    I don't know how easy it is to make Peer-to-peer transactions as no one uses Payoneer, but overall I have not had any issues getting my money from Itch to my bank through this platform. And for gods sake don't leave your money in Paypal anyway. Flush that **** to your bank ASAP

  • IbrahimReyesEsq Ibrahim Reyes (@IbrahimReyesEsq) reported

    @PamelaHensley22 I canceled #PayPal Problem solved.

  • voter_new ConcernedGrandma (@voter_new) reported

    @AmericanREI5 Problem is PayPal is allowed to put its own definition to the alleged infractions. Yes, if you align with PayPal beliefs, no problem. If you lean outside is beliefs, boom. I know several ppl who had their accts closed over raffles! Took months to get money back.

  • Denise23198195 Denise (@Denise23198195) reported

    @ScotchNot @PayPal The problem is, and I’m about to delete it, is they still have our bank information. Google search appeared to show that you can’t retract that info when you close.

  • TylerHyliard Tyler Hyliard (@TylerHyliard) reported

    @kfarrellauthor Personally, I disagree. I have heard too many horror stories about PayPal having an issue with someone's account and attempting to freezing the account permanently. PayPal having this policy could be another method for them to profit from accounts unfairly.

  • Mac_Cassity MacCassity (@Mac_Cassity) reported

    @stillgray They are trying to prevent people from utilizing PayPal for business transactions that are connected to these issues. Not some random comment on FB or Twitter that is on your personal account.

  • Lnanna7 Leanna (@Lnanna7) reported

    @LastNormal99 Yeah I haven't used PayPal for 10 years over a customer service issue. But this is much worse than why I quit them.

  • JordanMCarson Jordan Carson (@JordanMCarson) reported

    @benminer2 @PeterSweden7 All I do is buy **** with PayPal. You spreading misinformation is not my problem.

  • wiredfire Wiredfire (@wiredfire) reported

    @Beetlejayart I expect you’re right. Issue is it’s ambiguous. It’s entirely at PayPal’s discretion as to what qualifies as “objectionable”. I’m not ok with having no idea if I inadvertently trip their sensitivities & they grab money out of my account.

  • Hippiec48233066 Hippiechick (@Hippiec48233066) reported

    @catturd2 Simple fix, don’t use PayPal.

  • EternalTower_ Eternal Tower (@EternalTower_) reported

    @SiPapiLoSiento @1970Brat @JackPosobiec That’s the only way I use PayPal as well. It has been a convenient platform for me, but I am considering shutting down the account altogether now. This is some gross authoritarian ****** BS.

  • kevingubbels3 Monsieur Kevin (@kevingubbels3) reported

    @WWENetwork impossible to pay with paypal, please you can fix this problem

  • cheryllet Cheryl Timmons (@cheryllet) reported

    @RyanAFournier @PayPal The problem is all the hate is over on the left but the right is being accused.

  • SirChucklesbury SirChucklesbury (@SirChucklesbury) reported

    @ChrisLoesch @PayPal When your wife’s whole occupation is disseminating misinformation, that just might pose a problem.

  • Never12Waver 🇺🇸🫡 (@Never12Waver) reported

    @RobertS41531370 @ChuckCallesto If you’ve never used PayPal, what’s the problem?

  • Ratsolo Brett 🍁 (@Ratsolo) reported

    @DavidAnber @PayPal @AskPayPal I got one, am not closing my account. If I am foolish enough to believe in magic beans then I'm also responsible enough to take what I get. Problem in society today is that we pander to victims so much that one has no reason to learn from their or others mistakes.

  • James87492709 James (@James87492709) reported

    @P0ESCR0WS @Magician247 @ScottAdamsSays This is clearly deceptive. It says PayPal is the sole determiner, so if you say anything or have said anything in the past they disagree with, it is by definition misinformation to them and they just take your money. Maybe they’re having a bad quarter? No problem!

  • nans_long Sharon Long (@nans_long) reported

    @bennyjohnson Taking down my PayPal! Wow! America LAST!

  • chasehealy Chase (@chasehealy) reported

    @officialtripoli Maybe I don’t understand PayPal’s full potential , but who keeps money in their pay pal account. I get sent money and that **** immediately goes into my bank account. Unless the issue is they will freeze that money.

  • TheCurmudgeon_ The Curmudgeon (@TheCurmudgeon_) reported

    @stillgray You have to actually be using the service to promote the objectionable material. Sell coffee mugs on eBay that they don’t like: problem. Shitpost on social media unrelated to any PayPal use: not a problem. Note: I disagree with censorship by payment processors of all kinds.

  • Sorcerers89 Sorceress (@Sorcerers89) reported

    If @PayPal steal money from you because you like to tell the truth then take you money and your pos needs somewhere else we not condoning to that Asian bull. F the social credit system. They been down with government control since Eric Snowden, they need to be shut down

  • BrokenDoll47 SeekingSalvation (@BrokenDoll47) reported

    @ChuckCallesto Looks like I'll be shutting down my @PayPal account asap.

  • Phantammeron Phantammeron (@Phantammeron) reported

    @PeterSweden7 Misinformation/disinformation is a problem….but who decides whats ‘bad knowledge’ or immoral, some random millennial sitting in a cubicle at PayPal? Even a minister, priest, or rabbi doesnt have that power!

  • tonychin0 Tony Chin🍥 (@tonychin0) reported

    @TimKennedyMMA Paypal sucks anyways, they shut down my account with $22k on it and refused to give it back (paypal for business). Waiting now almost 11 months and don't see the end.

    @ThatDangDavie @JonathanPieNews @PayPal Oh please stop with the guilt by association. We all get that Ian is terrible. Time to be an adult about it

  • CaseyMattox_ Casey Mattox (@CaseyMattox_) reported

    @KaelanDC And Colorado says he's a discriminator. This is exactly the problem. Which side of that definitional question do you think PayPal would be on? Which side would it be on if there were a twitter-driven mob against every faith-based organization you can think of? Are you sure?
