Raza Dotani (@rdotani) reported@AliAhmadAwan_ PayPal, Stripe, Apple Pay and others you mentioned aren not the problem. They would come if your state policies allowed. Do some research, you will find why they can’t operate in Pakistan.

Barry Glen (@milon0171) reported@Bobmarg2828 Sorry to hear that, Bob. Sounds stressful. Are there any specific dates or amounts related to the Amazon/PayPal and direct debit issues? FOS decisions can be appealed if you feel they got the evidence wrong. Also worth logging with the FCA.

Diane Bernaerts 🇧🇪🇺🇦 🇵🇸 🌊🌊🌊 (@DianeBernaerts) reported@freecashcom I tried to book my first earnings to my bank account, but the green withdrawal button turned dark and then nothing.... Then i tried it with PayPal: same problems. Clicking on "Premium Support" does nothing, there's no way I can contact a help center. Is this a big scam?
-
Andregynous | Moved (@CoffiHedgeheg) reported@shu_bing2464 @zuanshihuaduo1 I can't because I never received one. I used the option where it said pay with paypal and it didn't require me to sign in or register with an email.

Xweave (@Xweave_io) reported@prozactivity @AlexLWitt @VerdaVentures Totally valid concern .low social presence is a fair red flag in this space. We’re early and heads-down building, but we’re very real. $3M seed backed by Jungle Ventures, Menyala (Temasek), Lightshift & Verda Ventures. Team ex-Visa, Meta, PayPal. Just dropped our intro thread

reanna (@x0reanna_) reported@1874dan the paypal situation is so sudden. they literally had zero problems a couple of days back and now they’re gone.

Laura🌸 (@dateppe) reported@soobyuyu @yuyuspirate There were issues with the recurring payment over the past two years or so. Mostly Paypal and people who had changed their credit cards in the meantime. They want to simplify that, so now everyone has to "manually" pay again, means you can update your payment method if needed
-
Yogeshwar Kumar (@inyogeshwar) reportedHi @AskPayPal, my account (Ref: PP-L-774805371850) has been permanently deactivated. I believe this happened because I mistakenly uploaded my Driving License when the system asked for a Passport during KYC. This was a genuine human error. I have my original Passport ready now.

Uncle_Jeff (@jeffsparo_01) reported@john322226 PayPal didn’t wake up one day and randomly decide to restrict Nigerians. Over time, the volume of fraud, chargebacks, and account abuse coming out of the region built a reputation that made them tighten controls. When a system is built on trust, once that trust is repeatedly broken, restrictions follow. The uncomfortable truth is that a relatively small percentage of people involved in scams ended up defining the global perception of everyone else. And companies like PayPal don’t operate on emotions or fairness, they operate on risk models. If the risk is high, access gets limited. Nigerians didn’t just get locked out… we priced ourselves out of trust. Until there’s consistent accountability, stronger enforcement, and a cultural shift away from glorifying “smart moves” that are actually fraud, platforms will keep treating the whole market as high risk...
