Paypal Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • triplemeister Jay Hill Z (@triplemeister) reported from Downham Market, England

    @AskPayPal Why is your tracking system not working? I have sold something, it has been delivered, but your system will not update itself so my money cannot be released! Is it too hard for somebody to manually check? Your help system sucks, just copied/pasted help articles 🤬🤬🤬

  • splitzy89 the Judges chambers (@splitzy89) reported

    @stockx I have emailed and sent more then 1 tweet and not 1 person could get back to me about my payouts that have been held up all weekend. I just need to know if there is an issue with my PayPal account or something else. Please get back to me asap.

  • viccastillejos Victor Castillejos (@viccastillejos) reported

    it is incredible how @PayPal can freeze your account for no apparent reason and without any way to recover it. We have more than two weeks like this, terrible !!!

  • BadGuyLogic BadGuyLogic (@BadGuyLogic) reported

    Thousands of new tax agents, the left tells us its to crack down on loopholes for the rich, right? Yet they are deployed to track down all that tax money people are using paypal and venmo to "dodge." Making sure people pay their fair share starts with soccer mom tshirt money, eh?

  • SyloWolf Sylo (@SyloWolf) reported

    @EnlisEntity @SparkleThehedge Mhm pretty much him saying can you spend your money on me while I get something out of it and you get nothing. He said he couldn't use PayPal because there was an issue on his account. I use PayPal and I have never had any issues.

  • samihostcom SamiHost (@samihostcom) reported

    @dingtone payment with Google Play is pending. with paypal. your web ssl error

  • NoBuggerYouKnow NoBuggerYouKnow (@NoBuggerYouKnow) reported

    @GlynBailey @NachevSiana Do you have a login ? I give each month via a recurring payment from Paypal, but I still see the nag screens. It's the same with the guardian and they also take my money and nag me. I guess I'm just unlucky

  • AnnieWe94230567 Annie Weber (@AnnieWe94230567) reported

    @JoJoFromJerz It just shows what a POS he is look him up he had to pay a $20 million fine to the SEC and had to step down as CEO of Tesla look him up he was removed from the board of PayPal he's a POS

  • danbullock Dan B (@danbullock) reported

    @AskPayPal As said to @EmBearpark, they're not emails, they're literally in the Paypal account. This is only getting frustrating because CS aren't reading the issue correctly, time and again.

  • BadGuyLogic BadGuyLogic (@BadGuyLogic) reported

    Thousands of new tax agents, the left tells us its to crack down on loopholes for the rich, right? Yet they are deployed to track down on that tax money people are using paypal and venmo to "dodge." Once again, the left says one thing but does something else.

  • Di_McClean Di McClean (@Di_McClean) reported

    So, I think everyone is interested about commissions. They are still on pause, I haven't abandoned them. The problem is that I don't know a stable working payment method now, since paypal is no longer available to me.

  • ArtemisEmpress Mrs Money with the vibe 🇳🇬 (@ArtemisEmpress) reported

    @grooveeshakes Login to PayPal and click add money on there and you should be able to add your Monzo account

  • ryllen_art ryllen 🍌 goddamn finish the kofi already (@ryllen_art) reported

  • esullivan007 ES (she/her) 🌊🌊🌏 (@esullivan007) reported

    @sam_stephens1 @VaushV @TulsiGabbard You do know that in PayPal/Venmo, any transactions between family/friends is deductible right? The problem here is not the IRS but you who don’t want to take the time to understand how it works. Maybe should spend some time yo see how PayPal codes each payment for example.

  • 1Arty Art (@1Arty) reported

    PayPal awful to deal with if you are having problems call centre do not speak English very well

  • RealNewsTransl8 RealNewsTranslation (@RealNewsTransl8) reported

    @PayPal hates poor ppl. 1st they forced 2FA thru SMS meaning I either use someone else's phone or shut down my acct. Now, they are refusing to transfer money to PP from my own bank & gave me the 3rd degree asking why I was transferring money. It's ******* Christmas ********.

  • ezzarocks Ezza Manns (@ezzarocks) reported

    @rxsehathomir I have used PayPal for years never had a problem… they also have a mechanism to dispute a purchase and get your funds returned if the seller misrepresents the product or doesn’t send it to you etc.

  • TwitHead55 TwitHead (@TwitHead55) reported

    @ThetruthSharon @Liz_Wheeler Sorry, closed paypal down when they tried to slip in a $2500 fee for having an opinion they disagree with.

  • Alberto74912876 Alberto Candelaria (@Alberto74912876) reported

    @WhiteHouse Fact Check This and your paying for this by shoving down people throats a tax on $600 or more on PayPal ect Lier Lier pants on fire

  • devil_doorbell Dr. Devil's Doorbell (@devil_doorbell) reported

    @JillKoford @TulsiGabbard No, lil' sis. The fundamental issue is that all currency transactions are the business of the federal government and may be subject to taxation, whether you pay by check, Venmo, Paypal or trade your beaver pelts for tobacco leaves. So, please, learn the law, STFU.

  • munchingland Yami Munch (@munchingland) reported

    @iPerfect @HYDEOVER9000 I made it use paypal which didn't give me an issues. but that's a valid point to bring up.

  • JohnC811 John C (@JohnC811) reported

    @ThinkingSapien I think Twitter is now working on this problem with a monthly fee. They could however do it with an email address linked to a credit card. Try to register the same e-mail or credit card on paypal it won't let you. Could use a system like that

  • digitarum Milo (@digitarum) reported

    @Bahman65356833 @PayPal @adidas 100% agree. I can't believe this is one of the biggest payment gateways, for me it's been nothing but problems.

  • NewLooneyTune 🎄 The Infamous Looney Tune 🎄 (@NewLooneyTune) reported

    I have no problem paying for artwork for my fanfics, but most artists only have PayPal and I have cash app

  • MisWiredKE JGaspar/MisWiredKE (@MisWiredKE) reported

    @ThunesPayments hi, I've been getting a 403 Forbidden error on you Paypal-MPesa site for the past few days on multiple browsers. Is there something going on?

  • DebbieCroft Debbie Croft (@DebbieCroft) reported

    @musescore I’ve spent months trying to resolve a subscription issue and be refunded. Please don’t ask me to email support - you just keep passing me on to Apple and PayPal (who can’t help because it’s @musescore who needs to refund me). Please take some ownership and resolve this

  • MistressDolly1 Mistress Dolly AVN LV Jan 1-8 (@MistressDolly1) reported from Harrison Township, Pennsylvania

    I AM NO LONGER ACCEPTING BOOKINGS WITHOUT A DEPOSIT. If you cannot give one, that’s a you problem! Figure it out(cash drop, cashapp, Apple Pay, zelle, PayPal) or get a damn divorce if you can’t have a paper trail! Lol not a me problem! Stop making your personal issues, SW issues
