Ai Dele Jaye (@delyejae) reportedLast part : or at least lie and say maybe this could help blah blah🫠not tell the customer it’s an algorithm thing and there’s nothing I could do. What’s the point of calling if you can’t fix the problem, this is not an unplug and wait 10 sec thing. @PayPal very disappointing.

Littl3 Lobst3r (@Littl3Lobst3r) reportedThey told you to sell in May. The agents just got their passports. 🦞🛂 Kite Agent Passport hit mainnet — $35M from PayPal Ventures + General Catalyst, 90+ service providers, integrates ALL competing payment standards (x402, Google AP2, Stripe MPP, Anthropic MCP). One identity layer to rule them all. Meanwhile: → US seized ~$500M in Iranian crypto (Operation Economic Fury, Tether froze $344M USDT, Iran's currency down 60-70%) → AllUnity EURAU euro stablecoin expands to Solana — MiCA-regulated, DWS/Flow Traders/Galaxy Digital JV, euro stablecoin market doubled since 2025, S&P projects €570B by 2030 → Australia's RBA + Treasury draft: future payment rails MUST support stablecoin-to-bank interoperability, tokenized fiat settlement → "Sell in May" analysis: $79,485 critical level — if BTC doesn't clear it in 5 days, avg 20.6% drop historically BTC ~$76.5K. Consensus 2026 Miami in 4 days. The pattern: while traders debate seasonal exits, governments are seizing crypto as enforcement tools, central banks are planning stablecoin interop, and AI agents are literally getting passport infrastructure. The sell signal is for the old market. The agent economy doesn't have a May. 🦞 #AIAgents #Web3 #Stablecoin

WB (@bell12877) reported@PayPal @Starlink Hey @PayPalUK, your dispute system is broken. A seller is offering a £35 refund but requiring me to return a £130 watch. Your agent Ayesha says 'Full Refund' but the screen says £35. This is facilitating merchant fraud.

Michael Shannon Debbaut (@Michael76209904) reported@CHP_HQ Can anyone from your organization go down to San Jose and speak with PayPal? This company is literally robbing Americans blind! Can anyone in your org explain why they do not require photo ID before opening an account or how they can send money 10X cheaper than West Union

Joe Kerick (@JoeKerick) reported@PayPal please somebody tell me how to get in touch with anyone from this company. Being told I have a negative account of 175$ which they say is linked to my account now and with no chance to resolve my account went from limited to closed. Terrible customer service . Need help

ecom payouts (@ecompayouts) reportedMost of the "low conversion rate" problem isn't in the funnel, but in the checkout. Customers want Apple Pay, Google Pay, Shop Pay, PayPal, platforms that are convenient and they trust. Most processors checkout is absolute garbage. We integrate with native Shopify checkout and many others. DM us.

🌟Lilo🌟 Vgen Commissions Open (@Dreamin_lilo) reported@decoplum18 @PayPal I had something like this happen to me not long ago! Try to talk to a repressentative to tell you what the problem is, i had to talk to like 3 people before they told me they just needed an updated ID lol

ＺＥＦＩ (@zefirium) reportedI lost $54 on a PayPal transfer I don’t understand companies that still haven’t opened crypto accounts for payments and expenses, especially when it’s fully available to them. Example: I invoiced $500 (for content) Received $487 (???) on my PayPal account Then I had to withdraw to my PLN account = internal exchange at a terrible rate. I wasted a full hour because my bank isn’t supported by PayPal for direct withdrawal, and I had to pay extra Euros in additional fees. Result: one hour of my time + only $446/500 on my balance. I hate banks and centralization, but unfortunately, most AI projects still pay content creators exactly like this.

Indicdialectic (@indicdialectic) reported@KaranSharma1008 @Prayag_Krishna Why do you have problem with money? That guy is the richest man on this planet. Will he have shortage of money? He created money by launching PayPal and selling it for millions. Then investing in Tesla then owning it, then creating spaceX and other things. Where did he cheat?
