🇺🇸 End H1B F1 OPT TN E3 O1 L1 I1 H4 all NIV 🇺🇸 (@slmimorgan) reported@drjoshcsimmons PayPal has always been a crap product with egregious security risks. Unclear how it launched anyone's career. There is something very shady going down with Tech. H-1Bs are unconstitutional/illegal. Hence, some very, very powerful people are not American citizens at all.

Forgettable Beth (@ForgettableBeth) reportedI’m sick of it I’m tired I’m wore down I’m stressed and overwhelmed. For no reason someone went after my kofi which all of my art and writings I created.

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.

Fadehanmi Timilehin (@Timilehnsamson) reported@mypagacare I would like to kindly request a change of my registered phone number on my account. I need to update my old phone number so that I can link the new number to my PayPal account and access its functionality without issues.

Michael Shannon Debbaut (@Michael76209904) reported@MSPA Why is your organization endorsing PayPal? Mystery shopping companies should issue checks. I know employees who get paid cash but that it is all with local employers not out of state! Advocate the federal reserve system the degree of probity is much higher!

Ben Valentin (@TheBenValentin) reportedAnthropic just went after 30 million small businesses. Claude for Small Business dropped this week. 15 pre-built workflows. Connectors to QuickBooks, PayPal, HubSpot, Docusign, Google Workspace. Invoice chasing, payroll planning, lead triage, contract review, cash-flow monitoring. All baked in. No extra charge beyond the Claude license. Here's what most people will miss about this: The biggest AI lab on the planet just told small business owners they're worth building for. Not enterprise. Not Fortune 500. The 10-person company that's been duct-taping tools together for years. That's a market signal. When Anthropic, OpenAI, and Google all start shipping SMB-first products in the same quarter, it means the enterprise-only era of AI is over. But pre-built workflows are the floor, not the ceiling. They solve the generic problems every business has. The real unlock is when a business deploys an agent trained on their specific operations, their specific data, their specific customer patterns. That's where the ROI compounds. Generic workflows get you started. Custom agents get you ahead. 10-city live tour starting yesterday. Free half-day workshops for small business owners. Anthropic is doing field sales now. Let that sink in. What's the first workflow you'd hand off to an agent tomorrow morning?

philip Ron (@phil_ron) reported@AskPayPal "Hello, I am a new freelancer in Kenya. I tried to reactivate my years-old dormant account by uploading my National ID for verification. The system instantly deactivated me. I have zero history of disputes or issues. Can a human agent please review my ID and restore my account?"

erika rodriguez (@erikarodrigue53) reported@BlizzardCS Got a email about our subscription for wow with a payment issue. I switched it to go though PayPal. It has for years. This morning says update payment method put our account inactive. I look on my card to see what’s going on. 4 pending transactions. $15.87 I switched it again.

Nick A (@mobynick303) reported@52Vinyl I'd let him make a claim on PayPal for not as decribed- youve been upfront on the condition and just how warped would make it unplayable? Most small kinks should play without much of an issue I would have thought?
-
Feat-feet (@DargonPhil) reported@SamuelVieiraMe1 Mmm, I' not sure, what's the issue? Is Paypal the problem?

Termites (@TermitesRGood) reported@N1HawkLive @zachbussey So let me get this straight people that have their checking account attached to Twitch. It’s $100 now. But PayPal who charges 3% fee is 50. If that’s the case, a lot of streamers will never get paid maybe two or three months down the road People just don’t support small streamers every time you get ahead I used to be 30 average now it’s 5 avg and every time it seems like you’re getting head twitch turns around and screws you

Ann O'Neill (@Ann_ONeill) reportedI just discovered I am being charged by @Cerebrum_lQ for a service they are not providing. When I tried to cancel I was told I have no active account yet a charge went through @PayPal today. I expect an immediate refund. Sad that X has become a watchdog for these issues.
