⛩🦊 (@ShrineFoxMods) reported@gy_sup @kianamosser Yeah I think so too, personally I haven’t had any issue using a PayPal business account as an individual for earning like $100 here and there. But it seems like a lot of the people getting their accounts shut down are making a lot more and it gets flagged as “suspicious” 😔

Ryzm (@Goeun_6121) reportedX Money pays 6% APY on deposits. The US average deposit rate is 0.38%. Call it 15.8 times. Ally and SoFi, the strongest online banks, top out at 4 to 4.21%. X pays more than that too. X isn't a bank and doesn't want to be. Deposits sit at Cross River Bank, a partner. KCIF writes plainly that the structure exists to avoid bank capital and liquidity requirements. The one paying 15 times the average is the one not carrying bank capital rules. Cross River is a New Jersey chartered bank with $8.7bn in total assets, specialised in renting account, payment and lending infrastructure to other platforms. The rate is probably promotional. Ken Tumin points to Chime and SoFi, where these numbers drifted back to competitor levels over time. There are gaps on the map. X holds money transmitter licences in 41 states and DC, but not New York or Massachusetts, where state legislators leaned on the regulators. Deposit protection runs to $250,000 per person, or up to $10m for larger balances through an IntraFi sweep. PayPal and Venmo carry none at all. The next question is stablecoins. If X issues its own, money parked in it may sit outside protection no matter what backs the reserves.

Fraser ******* (@Fraser_Cumming) reported@ScotRail Hi Chloe, thanks for replying quickly. I've came out the app, closed it fully and gone back in and it's now showing Google Pay and PayPal. I realise now it was missing the ticket delivery option too so I think that was the main cause of the problem.

Michael Diaz (@MichaelDiazer) reported@Natsuken425 @ABrinstar @hafuma Yes? Every payment goes through paypal, the thing we're talking about. Aka every payment through paypal gets taxed. What do you think they go through? Your mother? Jeetskin, you're retarded as ****, settle down, drink your cow piss, eat your curry and follow the train.

Mike Bergmann (@mrbergmann) reported$PYPL Conference Call Wrapup: PayPal beat and raised the full year, and the story still has a problem: EPS still fell 1% to $1.38, and next quarter they guide it DOWN double digits. Revenue +5%, but the earnings line is going backward while the guide goes up. Read past the raise.

Mommi/commission open🔆✨ (@Mother_snake09) reportedInitially, she sent me the painting and agreed to pay a deposit. She then transferred 100% of the money even though I had only asked for 50%.She suggested using PayPal, but I didn't have it and only had Wise. She agreed, but then said Wise was having problems.

Felix 🫀 Fanfaron - Adam Raki Plush Coming Soon! (@FelixFanfaron) reported@beanyzilla @ACGGoods Weirdly mine also showed me being charged (or 'payment pending') the full amount at the time of the preorder, but now since the apparent PayPal refund it only shows the down payment in my bank account, so it may be worth double checking for any and all transactions with ACGGoods

ZoneCrypto (@_ZoneCrypto_) reported✦ PayPal enhances its focus on stablecoins while reporting Q2 results: In its second-quarter report, PayPal showcased the rising significance of stablecoins and AI-powered payment solutions, revealing a revenue of $8.68 billion and an $81 million adjustment linked to crypto assets. The company posted earnings of $1.26 per share, slightly down from $1.30 year-over-year, and below the $1.28 expected by analysts. Revenue increased from $8.29 billion last year, surpassing the $8.47 billion consensus. PayPal's $81 million adjustment excluded from non-GAAP results reflects its strategy regarding crypto and investments.

Vinod Bhardwaj (@VinodBhardwajUS) reportedI am tired of modern life for another reason. Every product needs a PhD just to be able to use it. It is impossible to turn on the TV at a friend's place. On a Tesla, you don't know how to open the glove compartment or turn on the wipers, or blow the air in your face. Netflix keeps telling me that this device - my TV- is not authorized. I have to go through hoops to get it reinstalled. One time I had to call customer support. Fortunately Netflix still has real human beings who are helpful. There is no way to reach a real person on X. I have wasted several thousand dollars to boost my posts but it just ate my money. The XAI that monitors my posts found something wrong with my post, I don't know what. When I sent a DM to Ad services, it never responds. I have sent the complain a dozen times. The XAI reads not only the posts but also the DMs. When XAI doesn't understand a post, it simply ignores it. There is no way on X to reach a real human being. If XAI is cheating me, it is the cost of living with modern AI technology. The ring in my wife's phone becomes almost inaudible. She sets it up to full volume but it keeps coming back to lowest volume. So, she asked me to find out the problem. I haven't been able to solve the problem. I tried to de-install an App, and it would keep on reinstalling it. On PayPal, I cannot turn off notifications of parcels from USPS. In an Airbnb I could not turn on the A/C. It had so many things in the menu. It would keep going back and forth in the menu but not show me the temperature controls. Even powering on and off did not work. In another Airbnb in New Zealand, I could not use the oven because I could not set the temperature. It kept turning off. In a hotel I could not set the time on the alarm clock. The list is limitless. And I am not a computer illeraterate person. You might think I am a dumb person. I am the inventor of Ethernet switch which is widely used in AI data centers, My company I founded turned an investment of $25 million into $10 billion. I have a dozen patents. If I am having so much problem with modern technology, I can imagine how much problem others might be facing.

favored, vindicated millionaire (@SosoTheWanderer) reportedSince the start of this month, PayPal always conveniently glitches when I try to finish an order. I’ll be thinking the payment didn’t go through and click confirm again, only to find out later that I was double and triple charged. Then they’ll take FOREVER to fix it. @AskPayPal

shepherd (@xshephrd) reportedi did a paid collab with this brand, when it was payment time them: "pls create a paypal invoice including estimated fees so our finance team can pay you" me: **creates invoice, adds $10 with notes 'this is for the fees but if seems too much pls tell me + what you think i should add as fees' them: didn't complain, "hey can you create a new invoice? it seems there's an error with the first one as it's not working" me: ** tries to create a new invoice, noticed first payment actually came through. decides to tell them "hello, the first payment came through, check your activity to confirm so you don't end up paying me double" + added a screenshot for more transparency apparently paypal only charged $3 for the fees which means there's an extra $7 them: "hey we noticed there's an extra $7 after charges, can we send you something to post for us since we paid you more than the agreed amount" idek what to say next.
