    .@AllRounderCrick your customer service is appalling - placed a teamwear order 14/05 didn’t appear on website as issue with paying via PayPal. Promised on 17/05 would be passed through to Teamwear. Still hasn’t appeared on “my orders” on website. 1/2

  • j4ddie James Dartnell (@j4ddie) reported

    @AskPayPal I retract my previous mention of PayPal being at issue, it now turns out it was caused by PayPal's use of the CDN Fastly :)

  • Pika_Gamy 🏹 ⚡ Pika_Gamy ✨ ⭐ (@Pika_Gamy) reported

    @Samura1man Yes but not all, example Amazon, Reddit, PayPal and more are down. But now are okay again.

  • FleischerHorst Holly (@FleischerHorst) reported

    I have problems logging into my paypal account. The reason is that the phone number I have linked is no longer valid and I am currently outside of the US and can not enter a phone number other than an US. I tried several times to get in contact with paypal but can't get through.

  • Agent_Mab ☀ Agent Mabeobja ⭕ (@Agent_Mab) reported

    @aimperial Yes, it's fascinating to see how fragile all of this really is. I only noticed because Reddit wasn't responding and with the weird emoji display thing, but some people have had trouble using PayPal... That really sucks. 😐

  • Alu_cm The Alu ☕️🥯 (@Alu_cm) reported

    @FireMoonXD Oh *** I'm so sorry! I hope Paypal can fix that. It won't be fair that you lose all that job!! D:

    @lordvictor If the furry art economy crashed down, Paypal would go bankrupt in a week

  • sdsassygirl Sandy Guzman (@sdsassygirl) reported

    Interesting I didn't find cloud outage trending this morning that caused major systems to go down. I was worried it was just my Samartsheet platform but I guess it impacted Amazon, CNN, Paypal and so many other sites & networks. I've turned into a systems geek & I love it!

  • lefrancine Hannah (@lefrancine) reported

    Is anyone experiencing an error when transferring money from paypal to @gcashofficial????

  • aelmaiTV Lea (@aelmaiTV) reported

    @chroniciconicc Oh apparently amazon, paypal, twitch and some other sites were down or something?

  • IncreXible IncreXible (@IncreXible) reported

    @AskeBay Already done, thanks. I've had so many issues with the new seller platform. Higher fees, charging my PayPal when set to payouts, purchasing this label without confirming when I hit to change it to Payouts again.

  • Kirkrider1 Kirk rider (@Kirkrider1) reported

    @Adr3y_ Hey Babe, having bank issues this morning.. Can i pay you direct thru paypal? Or something else?

  • ambiguousFruits 🍊 Tangerine H. Sanitizer 🐄🍫🫐 (@ambiguousFruits) reported

    @u_suspend oo but i heard there's some money cap on paypal when you don't give your real info.. or at least there can be legal problems if someone notices your paypal info doesn't match with your bank info

  • BITZIEGIRL Rose (@BITZIEGIRL) reported

    I won`t have any money until next month.😢 Accidently push a button (my hands shake) on a game & PAYPAL took $53.11 out of my bank. Didn`t mean to sign in to the game. NOT asking any one for $. just wanted to complain. It`s not PayPal`s fault that my shaking hand hit the button😢

  • thatzolfguy zolf (@thatzolfguy) reported

    @hannahomge no give me your paypal login information

    @niklasdesigns @wavyfuh @plyniusinc You are the one who should STFU. If you are impatient that’s your ******* issue, not them. This is hard proof they are still working to resolve Paypal by going through Wavy after everything you said. Fking prick.

  • Q30067754 Pat Riot (@Q30067754) reported

    @WidowKhal What sort of problems? Worst comes to worst, someone might be able to paypal some money to sort it out if need be? We don't have air con over here, but it's bearable... at the moment 😣

    On the day the internet broke, with many major websites including HMRC, Amazon, Paypal & Twitch not working - don't worry we're still are! #alwaysworking #hereforyou #cyber

  • WeHummingbird We are Hummingbird - Mental Health (@WeHummingbird) reported

    Shame on you @AskPayPal @PayPalUK. A substantial donation through our GivingFund has ‘Gone Missing’ and you won’t tell us where it has gone to. Instead, we have to get the donor to raise a dispute at their end when it is CLEARLY an issue with your platform.

  • TechMahour Jitu Mahour (@TechMahour) reported

    Many websites down including Amazon, Twitter, the company fixed the problem There were also complaints about other websites and apps including Stack Overflow, Shopify, PayPal and Vimeo.

  • Pastor_Jill Jill Doesn't Back Down Joiner #BLM (@Pastor_Jill) reported

    @candidcorinth and @homegypsy some of you transactions were pending so I told paypal it was a virtual product so if you get weird emails that is why. I have heard about this issue with paypal before

  • AbdulAz08892749 Abdul Aziz (@AbdulAz08892749) reported

    @ImranKhanPTI Dear Prime Minister, I urge you that all freelancers are needed (PayPal). Freelancers make money online but the problem is for freelancers. PayPal is not available in our country and freelancers make money from abroad.

  • englishhaze englishhaze (@englishhaze) reported

    @substandardnerd I think this screwed with PayPal earlier too. I couldn't get a payment authorised. Constant 503 errors.
