  • AncientBeast Ancient Beast (@AncientBeast) reported

    Online multiplayer feature (currently in beta) is back on, after being down for 8 days; Digital Ocean closed droplet as it didn't took money automatically from PayPal and Chrome confused me with the new CORS errors being displayed in the console. Damn tech stuff at times. *sigh*

  • erulez_23 Emitt Burris (@erulez_23) reported

    @froggieyoongi I got my confirmation email right when my purchase completed, but I didn’t use PayPal for my purchase, so that may be an issue with PayPal ?? I got error messages throughout but just kept spamming refresh until they went through, but I never got completely booted out the page

  • imcryinh m (@imcryinh) reported

  • SilkCharm Laurel Papworth (@SilkCharm) reported

    Trying to purchase apps worth $500+ USD on @AppSumo but the Paypal won't work. Dropped it down to $200 and it still doesnt work. Not sure what to do. Buy nothing? LOL.

  • BettGid54414795 Grace Wanjau (@BettGid54414795) reported

    @PayPal i am trying trying to withdraw money through thunes to my mpesa but it cannot go through, what could be the problem?

  • sally_cyber CYBER JELLY TOTS (@sally_cyber) reported

    @AskPayPal is your app down....cant log in ?

  • ShiggySeanOne Sean Da 6ft4 (@ShiggySeanOne) reported

    @Elaquent Then they state the only way to a receive payment is through PayPal, then ask if you received payment, then says there is an error, then ask you to look for a specific code you can't find so they offer to help... Which allows them access to your PayPal account, cc, bank info...

  • MaryNotFunny marmalade 🇦🇷 (@MaryNotFunny) reported

    If yall havin trouble on psn to purchase just use paypal

  • ellieq ELLIE (@ellieq) reported

    Omg first world problems but don’t make me use PayPal I beg

  • dave_daveglucas Dave Lucas (@dave_daveglucas) reported

    @_Jacob2001_ @AskeBay Ok, I didn’t know that. As mainly a buyer, I liked the added protection that PayPal gave, which I’ve had to ‘successfully’ use a couple of times. I think my problem was caused mainly by incompetence in their CS’s,fortunately we’ve got Amazon and other platforms so no worries👍🏻

  • David_Indeje Indeje 🇰🇪 (@David_Indeje) reported

    @potentash True, it has been made very easy. I only have a problem with the fees when it is from PayPal to M-Pesa, I find it still up.

  • TylerUjhazy Tyler Ujhazy (@TylerUjhazy) reported

    @AMCTheatres @CEOAdam Had my tickets in cart but it wouldn't allow me to pay w/ card in wallet, add new card or pay w/ PayPal or Google. Ultimately kicked to back of line. Had hopes of this going well but it seems many others having similar issues.

  • MostWantedC4t MostWantedCat (@MostWantedC4t) reported

    The issue here is, the payments that I have received are a total of 800 dollars in around 20 transactions. If I refund them, I will lose the transaction fee which is around 40 dollars or more. I don't want to pay and give paypal money when I am not at fault at all???

  • zTRG_ Aurora TRG (@zTRG_) reported

    @Margot_dN Problem is it's one of the most popular ones for it. And also, as shown by Rosie's issue with paypal, it's even worse to keep using due to how easily you can get robbed of said payment. Stripe is secure but it's more for businesses than something small scale.

  • 310hkc41b b14ckh013 (@310hkc41b) reported

    @banggood @PayPalSpain I will not debate this issue with you any further. You have wasted my time and money. Although I will say that your ethics leave much to be desired. Remember!!! 2 months, and in the end it was PayPal, not you, who made the decision.

  • moonbohwa 산's nana🦋✨ (@moonbohwa) reported

    It was like $10 cheaper on applemusic but there's smth weird with their website that won't let me open the windows to login and then to paypal so it was impossible🥲

  • sally_cyber CYBER JELLY TOTS (@sally_cyber) reported

    Is the paypal app not working just now or is my internet in a wee huff with me....any info would be great.

  • IconicRhaymond H.R.M 🕴️🇱🇷 (@IconicRhaymond) reported

    @accessbank_help I and my colleagues have this issue of getting a Paypal verification code from an access bank. Other banks send it with the debit alert but access do not How do I go about it It is frustrating

  • makeminemayday Kelly- Make Mine Mayday (@makeminemayday) reported

    @levidu99 I'm in payment processing hell so I'm a bit concerned my bank is going to flag it as an issue in a second if it's trying to run it and crashing. :( Why I tried to use Paypal but Paypal declined it due to the same thing. Uggo.

  • defrisselle Chris Fraser (@defrisselle) reported

    @loyalmoses @TwitchSupport @AskPayPal No, it said in the notice that it was for a 6 month sub That's the odd part, the pricing didn't make sense I just add it up to their big hack of all server data and code That they have yet to plug all the holes and people are using that to run around and cause mischief

  • ClawDraws 🌷 𝗰 𝗹 𝗮 𝘄 🌷 GI CARDIGANS POs (@ClawDraws) reported

    @kaexchurl The currency difference is not a problem 🥺 you can use PayPal too!

  • Margot_dN Shadow dN (@Margot_dN) reported

  • malithmichael Mazack (@malithmichael) reported

    @Safaricom_Care afternoon, I have been having issues with my Mpesa-PayPal transactions. I was using a certain old number on my PayPal for toptup but I'm no longer using it and want to change it. Kindly help.

  • Ioogithegoat christmas *** loog (@Ioogithegoat) reported
