-
Make your Own Website (@Krishna93444872) reportedThe problem Paying global teams today is broken: • 2–7 day delays • High fees (Stripe, PayPal) • Currency issues • Limited access in many countries This slows down global hiring
-
Laura🌸 (@dateppe) reported@soobyuyu @yuyuspirate There were issues with the recurring payment over the past two years or so. Mostly Paypal and people who had changed their credit cards in the meantime. They want to simplify that, so now everyone has to "manually" pay again, means you can update your payment method if needed
-
Bitcitizen (@xbitcitizen) reportedRunning an online business and dealing with international payments? Here's what nobody tells you: Wire transfers: 3-5 days, 0-50 fees, bank hours only PayPal cross-border: 4.4% + currency conversion markup Stripe international: 1.5% extra + FX fees Bitcoin: Minutes. Any amount. Any country. Any time. The "complexity" of Bitcoin is a rounding error compared to the complexity of the legacy payment stack. #Bitcoin #Payments

Andregynous | Moved (@CoffiHedgeheg) reported@shu_bing2464 @zuanshihuaduo1 I can't because I never received one. I used the option where it said pay with paypal and it didn't require me to sign in or register with an email.
-
🫐 Allie !! (@ruii__10) reportedFor my fellow artists who don’t like paypal, i’ve switched to stripe like 3 years ago and never gone back, haven’t had any issues so far. I’d recommend you to look into it qwq
-
Kevin Waldvogel (@waldvogelk) reported@PayPal having issues getting a refund. Seller is refusing to take a return for an item that didn’t fit it was at least 3 inches too wide. I filed with PayPal saying that and was denied. Idk how to explain it better that it doesn’t fit
-
Lily White Cracker (@LilyWCracker) reported@Abby_Sariah Call them. But if it’s like PayPal, they just keep telling you to login to your account that you can’t get into. Ugh. Sorry.
-
Hanz (^•w•^) (@HanzyM45) reported@rhwtac Oh really? Cool, uh only problem is I don’t have PayPal. So I’m gonna have to figure that out and set an account up. I’ll DM or comment again about it if or when I get everything set up.

-
Xtreme2zero (@xtreme29x) reported@AskPayPal hi, I have an error, please send dm.
-
m. (@zL19uMsnpSU) reportedReal issue though I see is there are many freelancers/companies (incl. me) selling digital products in global market. However, we're forced to use third party gateways and losing potential customers because our policy isn't ready for Stripe, Paypal, Google merchant account etc.
-
m. (@adorekem) reportedPayPal need to fix their payment system, all this scheduled payment business is crap take my payment immediately!!!
-
RickxLoveLia 💞 (@RickxLiaChoi) reported@Rach_Spongebob Used USD, I always use Paypal pay in 4 as it causes less issues since paypal pays it themselves even if the card wouldn't go through due to international. Last time I couldn't get the Midzy 4th as it didn't have an option like it.
-
十べえ (@shimipan) reported@Ottery_FP I never want to use PayPal again. By what right do they steal other people's assets? The fact that no one from headquarters is responding, and the customer support staff are just trying to brush me off over the phone, is absolutely terrible.🥲🥲
-
CHANELLE GLOBAL BACKUP (@GLOBALCHANELLE) reportedWe are still trying to fix the issue of the PayPal, however our Ko-Fi should still be accessible. If you cannot access neither to Ko-Fi nor the PayPal, we are making note of everyone who has DMed or emailed us!
-
Ivan Stoev (@ivanzstoev10) reported@sergeynazarovx How long a withdrawal takes is a bank issue not a paypal issue - it’s instant in the UK, pretty sure Germany had instant transfers too but there might be an additional fee
-
hialex (@hialex_sol) reportedToday a designer in Buenos Aires getting paid by a US client has 3 bad options: • Wire → 3–5 days + $25–50 fees • PayPal → 8%+ taken • Crypto → confusing, needs SOL/ETH for gas, public addresses leak income None of these feel like a normal wallet. We fix that.
-
Zoran Dj. Stanić (@Zoran_33) reported@PayPal I have now great problem with PayPal in Belgrade (Serbia)! It was working great for some time, but now it is refusing to to finish my paying (I have some money on PayPal account), and always says aa the reason "WE CAN NOT CONFIRM THAT IT IS YOU"!!! Can you help please?
-
David Solheim (@davidtsolheim) reported@Austen I feel like we are at the stage before people trusted paypal where "there's no way i'd trust the internet with my bank account information". Slow and steady, then all at once.
-
Thatoneguy42069 (@Thatoneguy42089) reportedI will never ever use @PayPal or @Venmo again, time and time again I get hit with fraud by other people on my accounts. Yes I have everything locked down
-
RT PINNED 12 HOURS LEFT (@Irisposting) reported@TobuFox OH LET ME ASK MY FRIEND (they're taking care of the paypal stuff bc paypal started demanding ID from me and shut down my account)
-
Victim Tee (@HomeInvasionCop) reported@AnthonySabatini I'm liking Mr Donald's less and less but he is allowed to trade stock and basically legally insider-trade being immune from insider trading laws as a US Member of Congress? What rule is he broken by trading PayPal stock and disclosing it?
-
SAY HI😁 (@ChuchuAgazie) reported@Anyika0 @bashorunedward Sharp Well me at the moment I'm just verifying my PayPal when I'm done I would start up because my account is having issues I have to buy a dollar card or something I don't know
-
Larry (@JustLarry_Me) reported@jimcramer Cool- the federal gov accepts donations...I hear they even take paypal or venmo. Nothing stopping you from making a 12.4% donation of your pay above the current cutoff...problem solved.
-
Amu Aigou 📚🪽 愛合あむ (@AigouAmu) reported@7hachikyuu The only issue with that is that they require payment be sent through a specific site (like I saw PayPay for one) and if they request PayPal I just can't do that because my account has been completely shut down and I have no way to fix it 💔
-
Unknown Traveler 🇺🇸 (@nothanksfrankie) reported@JosephSomsel Oh no. We use PayPal to buy Robux and I've not had any problems. My youngest is pretty popular on the site, so we're finding an alternate way to access it. She's been on it for years and we have a sizable investment in her gaming/influencer so I'm not throwing all that away over allegations DICT has never even bothered to demonstrate are even credible. I just don't buy into government telling me how to parent or what me or my kids can access online
-
AdaptiveAlph 郝名阿 (@AdaptiveAlph) reported@_whitneywebb @markgoodw_in It is true PayPal tried to do centralized Bitcoin The problem is natural law is decentralized by nature. There is no singularities in nature. No black hole collapsing into a single point. Real world ain’t Fiat.

Bible Verse Memo (@BibleVerseMemo) reported@d4rsh_tw No I need the PayPal unlimited money glitch APK
