Serenity Solo Studios (@SerenitySoloDev) reported@TiggerStan01 I get the verification message now and again. I have no problem with those. I also have no problem making big purchases on Amazon or in a doing monthly shops. It's always PayPal it happens for. Not even every purchase I paid using them. It seems to happen at random. It's not as bad as what you've been through, though. At least I made the purchases. The money wasn't stolen. I'm sorry you had to go through that. I can only imagine the amount of stress that causes. The closest I got to it was when someone got my partners bank card details and started spending the money, leaving them broke within a week of my partner being paid. Of course, I got the blame for not pulling my weight financially for months. That was a stressful time.

♱⃓˚₊‧꒰ა cierra 👁️🪶|| healing arc ໒꒱ ‧₊˚♱⃓ (@CierraTenshi) reportedPaypal keeps emailing me to say they want to resolve my issue and I should message them — and then proceed to tell me in their customer support that it was never going to be solved afterall.
-
The Dude 🧲 (@TheDudeofDeFi) reported@base Every UI you’ve released thus far is pretty bad. Base app is terrible. Think PayPal, Venmo, Cashapp, Zelle etc. Simplicity leads to adoption.

Keith (@KeithDi0s) reported@Netspend Don’t do it!!! They just took over my PayPal account and it’s terrible! They just “escalate” everything! 🚩 I haven’t had any online access for 2 weeks
-
Lewis, William... William (@WillLewis_1976) reported@CardPurchaser this is my opinion, and would like to see if others feel the same. Ever since Venmo started offering the immediate transfer option on accounts for the extra fee like Paypal has, Venmo then slowed down their free regular transfer method to try and push people into using it. It's bad customer service, just to make extra money. I never in the past had to wait more than 24-48 hours for my free transfers to go through despite it saying it could take 1-3 business days.

Mike Wheeler (@EdgeLordWheeler) reported@GenuineComics A long time ago we had a problem with stripe crowdfunding was really new and they did not support crowdfunding at all. So they canceled the merchant account for it. So I say hey you know what I'll use PayPal. All the creators that were on it including Larry Higgins, you know the crazy ******* Canada guy that does Nyobi? Well they decided that that was a scam and all started attacking us for no reason. So I said **** it pulled the plug and deleted the site. 6 months later fund my comic launched. I've given Luke Stone two or three years now to actually do something and make his site better and he hasn't. That's because he can't. He doesn't own his code He leases it It's like a WordPress plugin. And yes fun my comic is a WordPress site. It's not built on the right architecture after it gets big enough it will fail and just stop ******* working. So I said you know what I'm going to bring it back and I put in all the latest technology and now here we are.

♱⃓˚₊‧꒰ა cierra 👁️🪶|| healing arc ໒꒱ ‧₊˚♱⃓ (@CierraTenshi) reportedI may just be slow and maybe missing or misunderstanding things..but genuinely, what does one even do in this situation? I felt genuinely relieved and happy after receiving this email from @PayPal saying some features of my account had been restored and that I only needed to provide additional information. I logged in immediately following the instructions, but I found nowhere to submit anything. I then messaged customer support only for them to say that I just ignore that email because they decided to keep the limitation. I was cooperative and provided all the info they needed as soon as I could, so receiving that email gave me hope that there was may some progress. I just don’t understand why that email was sent at all if they were just planning to keep my account banned. It feels incredibly misleading and honestly unfair and hurtful.

Julian Köser (@HonourM4xAI) reported@kabu_nyan0214 @Capito_Nihongo Problem is I don’t have an account which accepts foreign transfers only from my country and Paypal unfortunately blocks everything and supports my bank net. But if I could open a Japanese account that accepts foreign payments, that would be perfect for me.

Chris (@theechriswhite) reported@jcpenney WORST experience trying to return order. Traveled twice to “nearest” store. First time the system shut down. Second time I was told I could only receive a gift card for full amount back even though I paid with part gift card and @PayPal. PayPal has been no help either.

Bz22 (@Bz_22) reported@SUBWAY I placed an order thru the Subway app. I received an error message. Order does not show up in my history and store didn't receive it. However, my Paypal account was charged. Nobody responding to the paypalbillingescalations email account. How do I get my money refunded?
