    i finally figured out the stupid issue with paypal! they have 2 different address sections. your address on your account is not the same as your addresses on the express checkout page when you're buying something. i finally deleted the "preferred" address with my name backwards..

    @WandererThunder I ran into the same problem with Pally. My PayPal got shut down early by one bad actor sending multiple small tips and refunding them all at once. Setting up a stripe business account seems safe (also easy!) and linking that to Ko-Fi was the best solution!

    Artificial Shitposting Intelligence (@shitpost9000) reported

    @levelsio I used to do this a lot. I got a Facebook ad saying they'll give me $50 PayPal for five stars. So I did it, and it yapped for 20 seconds with voice to text, and the money appeared a week later. So I did hundreds of them. I'd get flooded with ads and messenger requests. But I only really every used the agents who gave me the most. I think they were Pakistani college students with fake Facebook profiles of pretty girls. I was reliable so they would just send the raw google sheets showing the hundreds of businesses that want to pay for a review. Somehow PayPal never banned me despite tens of thousands of dollars of little payments from overseas friends and family. Mind you, I had a full-time job at a big tech company. But 5-starring was easy money. Never quite understood why my poorer friends struggled with it. As long as you stay compartmentalized the dollars per hour of actual work is pretty high. I guess yapping and waiting and staying organized is hard for some. I think Facebook cracked down on review fraud ads a few years ago because they dried up. Nobody I know trusts star reviews anymore tho, they're just like George probably wrote them

    @rakshit_yadav19 have you verified yourself via pan etc? open paypal in pc and see for the issues, beside that just open support and tell the bot that you want to talk to real person, the real person then will ask for some details or reason for the money, once done you will most likely get the money.

Itโ€™s trying to win on being unforgettable, and a meme that survives its own failed launch and still gets airdropped back to the exact people who believed in it the first time is hard to forget.

  • bullmetrics
    The Analyst X (@bullmetrics) reported

    PayPal is up nearly 50% in six months and still down 78% over five years. So the real question: is this the turnaround, or a bounce in a broken stock? Here's the actual setup: $PYPL sits in the middle of online payments. You check out, they move the money, they take a fee. PayPal and Venmo are both theirs. ๐ŸŸข What's driving it: - Buying from a shop you've never heard of? You don't type your card in, you hit the PayPal button โ€” if it goes wrong, they chase it, not you. That trust is the product. - Shops can't remove that button. It turns browsers into buyers, so taking it off costs them sales. - Apple has your wallet but not the shop's checkout. Stripe has the shop but not your wallet. PayPal has both. - They're buying back 10.21% of the company a year โ€” the fastest pace in their history. Fewer shares, bigger slice for investors. ๐Ÿ”ด Why it got this cheap: - On your phone, Apple Pay is already sitting there with your face. PayPal makes you log in. That one extra tap is the whole war. - They've always charged shops a premium for that button, and cheaper options now sit right next to it. - Revenue growth has slowed to low single digits and the profit engine has cooled. What do the pros think? Here it gets uncomfortable: ๐Ÿ”ดAvg target: $57.26 โ€” 7% below where it trades today ๐Ÿš€High: $85.68 โ€” +39% ๐Ÿ”ดLow: $36.36 โ€” โˆ’41% The verdict: you're not buying growth here, you're buying cash. At $61 you pay $11 for every $1 of profit โ€” Visa and Mastercard cost three times that. The model says $75.36, Wall Street says $57.26, and that gap is the whole trade. The risk is the fee. If Apple and Google keep owning the checkout button, the cash machine slips with it. That's why the Low target sits at $36.36. Bargain or value trap?

    @PayPal I just experienced the worst trauma. A freecreditscore just f'd me royally and managed to find a loop ๐Ÿ•ณ to win to ach withdrawal from my PayPal account. I love your platform great app. Though. In losing. I paid back the provisional credit. Meanwhile, I felt there was deception and theft by extortion on this online business part. Just like when I was tricked to thinking I won a McDonald's $100 gift card. To think now in retrospect, McDonald's the company responsible for destruction of our rainforest. Did you know trees the length of two football fields are chopped down every hour. That's here and there. Mainly you know who else is sleeping in bed with our government. Instead of not getting the gift certificate as advertised, I got signed up with Affordable Obama Care that I was unaware off. I found this out by accident through the IRS. Just like PayPal sided with this online businesses that go phishing. I take that back. Engineering at best. You put burden of proof on me. Apparently, the business that took my $32 provided a better rebuttal. I don't get to look at their discovery. In good conscience, I paid back to PayPal. The end. For your perusal. I have already requested to close my account. But here is a caption, at my expense and humility, of why I have come to conclusion... Thank you for listening. Now I shall clean up my browser. Have a nice day.

    @elleloveCHI @MattLubawski It wasnโ€™t a misdirected payment, it was an exchange rate correction. I originally sent someone in Norway $100. The PayPal exchange rate for the Norwegian Kroner was messed up that day. They charged my account $5,000 instead of $100. They corrected it 3 weeks later crediting my account and making me whole. Then two months later they corrected it again in error giving me $5,000 that wasnโ€™t mine.
