  • Paul84456893 PauloNoutiniho (@Paul84456893) reported

    @sturmovikdragon @jmvasquez1974 His current problem is that PayPal have locked his PayPal account, it’s not a currency problem it’s a PayPal problem

  • RedGump_01 RG (@RedGump_01) reported

    @jmvasquez1974 Crypto offers one solution to your problem with PayPal James. Big respect for what you and the other volunteers are doing, but think you’re wrong here

  • pythaes Pythaes From the Onion patch (@pythaes) reported

    @AskPayPal @jmvasquez1974 Hey paypal - I am also in Ukraine and I know several volunteer groups that have had trouble with you. Dare I say this is deliberate on the part of your staff? Sounds like the type of thing that would really be unfortunate to be associated with. Fix your ****

  • dogefort Shiba Inu (@dogefort) reported

    @LondonB72290231 @jmvasquez1974 Ask around, find someone local interested in doing exchange for local currency, or run an exchange of the same funds back home and do an international bank transfer within the hour if you absolutely have to go slow&simple. ANYTHING is better than Paypal, even if it's news to some

  • CherokeeL0st L0stCherokee (@CherokeeL0st) reported

    @jmvasquez1974 @RipRawlings @PayPal #Paypal needs to be closed down. Use a different funding source. This is such Bullshit. Hope you get it figured out.

  • deandunham Lawyer Dean Dunham (@deandunham) reported

    When you pay by credit card via a third party (such as PayPal), the chain of causation is broken (as payment is not made directly from consumer to trader) and you are therefore unable to initiate a S.75 claim. PayPal does however have its own resolution centre

  • coan_henry Henry Coan (@coan_henry) reported

    @gnarlypineapple Idk, I think it’s like PayPal (I’m prob going down there)

  • StandardDAO StandardDAO (@StandardDAO) reported

    Fixing these issues is even more important outside the U.S. The Fed is planning to launch an instant payment service in 2023, A kind of Federal PayPal.

  • shi_vii Vicky🌿🌸 (@shi_vii) reported

    This is temporarily closed until I can fix the issues with PayPal

  • seohamatic 티아♡종현 (@seohamatic) reported

    has anyone else had issues with paypal because i haven’t been able to log in for the last week but there hasn’t been any activity on my account and i am mildly (very) concerned 🥹

  • ashe__chr Ashe | COMMISSIONS OPEN (@ashe__chr) reported

    While it's all under my name and paypal, donations will go towards helping us pay for Glitch's website fees (or if you just want to support us that's cool too).

  • leifactual 🌻🇺🇦 Javelins Cure Tanks 🇺🇦🌻 (@leifactual) reported

    Ah, I see that Very Online Foreign Fighter dude in Ukraine got his PayPal shut down for grifting. Funny how there’s never any footage of him participating in any actual combat, yet he spends essentially all of his time begging people for money for accessories and kit.

  • Steviepunk StevenW (@Steviepunk) reported

    @cineworld I'm trying to book tickets and I'm getting a "Payment authorization failed." error - I've tried with both credit card and Paypal. Having issues with payments just now?

  • BubblegumScout Galactic Snackin' Lena (@BubblegumScout) reported

    uhhh what else, paypal only, I'll send you an invoice that's due upon receipt unless it's over $50, I don't do porn and I reserve the right to turn down commissions for any reason. Aside from that I don't really have any set in stone rules, just like. be cool yanno?

  • MightyJack1356 MightyJack (@MightyJack1356) reported

  • AlicemartinJm Jan Martin (@AlicemartinJm) reported

    @jmvasquez1974 @Paul84456893 You need to get your problem with PayPal out to the media. Can some journalists get on their back and get it public?

    @PulsarGears what is going on with V2 orders? I ordered a red with FedEx express shipping on March 28th... Still Nothing. Also ordered a black later. You ignore my support tickets, and my tweets. I guess I will just open a PayPal claim next week. Terrible service.

  • lilykoa7 lk_17 (@lilykoa7) reported

    @jmvasquez1974 What about Venmo? Or is it going to be the same issue as with PayPal?

  • Amazon_HelpDesk Skinny Durable Chair (@Amazon_HelpDesk) reported

    @pinkyyyxo Okay, my PayPal’s had some issues in that it sends an e check. Don’t know why but it would be up in the air as to when it clears. Last time it took from Friday to Friday. Is that alright? Otherwise I can keep tinkering unless you know of any fixes for it?
