  • AstridMariaR J❣️M💕J: Pope Benedict XVI never abdicated. (@AstridMariaR) reported

    @RJMills_KC @B16Restore I also had trouble with that link. Maybe if you DM @B16Restore they'll tell you the email they use with paypal so you can use that from your paypal account page. God bless you. 🙏

  • itsBexli bexli.py (@itsBexli) reported

    PayPal won't let me login to my account (or recover my password) and I desperately need to place my MacBook tonight 😬 let's hope whatever it is resolves

  • dochall David Hall (@dochall) reported

    @theribman Put me down for one. DM your PayPal addy and I’ll send the money or trust me and I’ll pay & collect Sunday.

    @blymyer123 @dewangibson @bet365 What error does PayPal give you

  • 0xdface 0xdeadf4ce (@0xdface) reported

    @warsheep1982 You should be able to select a different currency at PayPal for a specific card. Some don't work with ARS for w/e reason unfortunately. Clicking on the edit button does no harm and shows available currencies. Might be that PayPal is working on a fix though IDK.

    And I made me extremely exhausted from the journey and that trip caused me to have spinal dislocations. My money is running out fast and problems with paypal and my country's policy prevent me from using paypal and I'm having a really hard time.

  • _aswesterman Ashley Westerman (Valdez) (@_aswesterman) reported

    .@gcashofficial yet again refuses YET again allow me link my PayPal acct saying the 2 accts don’t have the same name when they 100% do. This has been a yrs-long issue & I’ve NEVER been able to get a human on the 📞 to talk abt it. GCash, like Grab, desperately needs a competitor.

    @JB3RG_ @Tokenomics101 I bought my Sensecap on Ebay. I paid with Paypal. Reputable seller and buyer protection from Paypal if he tried to scam me. I had no problems. Check their ranking.

  • Imani_Barbarin Imani Barbarin, MAGC | Crutches&Spice ♿️ (@Imani_Barbarin) reported

    Is anyone having issues with PayPal not clearing payments despite having funds in account today?

  • MniSs3 _MniSs (@MniSs3) reported

    @AskPayPal I recently had an issue with my PayPal account. My account was limited shortly after I made my first sale through the Depop app. I had some issues with the shipping team and I refunded the buyer, but my account was still limited and it asked for a tracking number. Help

  • Breefcasejoeeee Wally (@Breefcasejoeeee) reported

    The only thing that saved me from spending $300 on vintage sopranos and Betty T’s was the fact that I don’t remember my PayPal Login.

  • NathalyE113 NatNat (@NathalyE113) reported

    @myronjclifton @AskPayPal I think it creates some type of an invoice when you click on the link and it somehow charges you/whatever account is linked to your PayPal. Ridiculous and idk what they are doing to address the issue.

  • rocks_jar Jar of Rocks (@rocks_jar) reported

    thread reader app won't stop taking money out of my paypal account. paypal has no record of the transaction. now i have to issue stop payment for paypal. nice scam, thread reader. thanks for ruining my account for me.

    I’m sorry for being mean to PayPal this past month.. it was the website’s problem not theirs 😔

  • jay4d3v4 जयदेव (@jay4d3v4) reported

    hey @PayPal @AskPayPal your customer service phone number is an entire mess that is completely unable to assist me with my problem. great investment!

  • unbulgnltqjhc preise (@unbulgnltqjhc) reported

    @jzj1990 @AskPayPal I guess you were also a victim as well. I had the same issue earlier this year but got them resolve and recovered through the help of a blockchain developer @Don_HelpDesk001 quickly text them for HELP on Twitter

  • DomineSama DomineSama (@DomineSama) reported

    @AnimsNerva1 I rate a financial institution based on how well they resolve my issues—especially refunding me when there's a dispute. Wells Fargo has always been great with this, but PayPal has been kinda hit-or-miss. BTW, forget dispute resolution with GooglePay. Effin' useless!

  • Shelby67GT Don Series X Yes we got games 💥 (@Shelby67GT) reported

    @JoeEvans1990 I trust CD keys. Never had a problem with them myself. Ran into a problem with another site, though. Paypal refunded it for me and never went back

  • unbulgnltqjhc preise (@unbulgnltqjhc) reported

    @SMO818 @AskPayPal The issue of support is that they don't reply they don't treat their client well, honestly I advise you send a message to @Don_HelpDesk001 he will surely help you solve your issues he was able to solve mine and people Who got referred never regret

  • AndreiHeeler Andrei Heeler (@AndreiHeeler) reported

  • melanieluvdm Melanie (@melanieluvdm) reported

    @stripe is a terrible payment service. Sadly worse than PayPal if you can believe that. Totally screwing me with my Distro lately and their answer is “just wait for us to reconcile our systems” what kind of answer is that? #stripe #stripepayment

    paypal and our bank, so we need to get that sorted before I get a new tablet. (I say "we" because my roomie is having the same problem, pain) I will still be active on here, just all art projects and art doodles are delayed until new tablet comes in, sorry guys 😭

  • baby_at_ease baby.at.ease (@baby_at_ease) reported

    @PayPal a glitch in your system causing my funds from my POS system to be held an additional thirty days! How does that happen. I am livid! They already held it for ninety days , supposed to be disbursed to me in two days now I cannot get it for another 90 days!!

  • elainelav Elaine Laverty (@elainelav) reported

  • adamwelch1105 temir vanhorn (@adamwelch1105) reported

    @PayPal @Hacker0x01 well found another way to log in. I even bypassed the password this time.. all it took was account name. Whos nephew got paid to make your web site? I assume the one with the drug problem. Good hire...lmao

  • VraskaTheNoodle Vraska~ (@VraskaTheNoodle) reported

    @RylieRingtail It worked before though. I sent $100 it let me do that. But I still have $285 to send and it just won't let me. Everytime I click PayPal to try that it just says error.

  • OddLeafNSFW OddLeaf🔞✏ (Slots Open! 2/7) (@OddLeafNSFW) reported

    The only issue is that PayPal shaves off about 9% of my profits whenever I get an invoice paid...but it's worth it, really.
