    @Austen I feel like we are at the stage before people trusted paypal where "there's no way i'd trust the internet with my bank account information". Slow and steady, then all at once.

    @The_Franchisee_ @MrMckenith ER619 is horrible. He once asked for my PayPal login information and two “proof of life” photos to buy a mod.

    @janninereid1 if i refuse to pay taxes for even one tax year, or if I refuse to report income over $600 on paypal, then all hell rains down on me, but a 3d world peasant with nine kids can invade and eat the taxes that the regime has stolen from me. No, I don't care about his sad story.

    @PayPal Small business owner here my PayPal was deactivated with no explanation no disputes no refunds everything legit so what’s the issue just be clear instead of hiding behind vague policies

    @7hachikyuu The only issue with that is that they require payment be sent through a specific site (like I saw PayPay for one) and if they request PayPal I just can't do that because my account has been completely shut down and I have no way to fix it 💔

    @ContrarianCurse i cant believe you are drawing a comparison to Paypal, with very specific problems, to the entire software sector. useless

    Luxray(by a single artist mind you!), Arcanine with various standing issues upon closer inspection, and the "legendary discount" Absol that once existed. So I don't know what to say other than I am still fighting this, even if PayPal has passed it off as logically accurate or-

    @Rach_Spongebob Used USD, I always use Paypal pay in 4 as it causes less issues since paypal pays it themselves even if the card wouldn't go through due to international. Last time I couldn't get the Midzy 4th as it didn't have an option like it.

    @john322226 PayPal blocked Nigeria years ago due to high fraud rates and regulatory issues. But there's more: PayPal also fears Nigeria's forex controls and chargeback abuse. Meanwhile, crypto and fintech apps are filling the gap. Adapt or cry. 💸

    @kentakeuchi2003 David sacks works in the White house, the whole Paypal group are doing very well. the problem is the builders od silicon vally have decided it was time to leave. one of the reasons they are leaving is due to high taxes and regulations.

    @JuriJin_vt @Vixsial The other crazy thing I remember was him needing to use multiple PayPal accounts cause he would have “issues”. He even used his cousin’s account and apparently she wasn’t aware of what it was for. Then she was scared cause she was getting threats on his behalf, so the admin

    Running an online business and dealing with international payments? Here's what nobody tells you: Wire transfers: 3-5 days, 0-50 fees, bank hours only PayPal cross-border: 4.4% + currency conversion markup Stripe international: 1.5% extra + FX fees Bitcoin: Minutes. Any amount. Any country. Any time. The "complexity" of Bitcoin is a rounding error compared to the complexity of the legacy payment stack. #Bitcoin #Payments

    @howdydegen @Venmo @PayPal Are you using the app? I had the same issue but when I login to actually website it allowed me to send it. If that doesn’t work, you could chat customer service and they lift the freeze

    @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.

    These people want to try me. Signed up for one free trial like that. Now now now they were deducting money from my PayPal when it’s not even 30 days. The email I sent to them, they knew I was ready to bring down fire and brimstone on their head this evening! They had to refund!

    @oooo23 @foxenflask My concern, everyone would jump to X Money, slowly scaling down from PayPal.

    @shimipan Ahh that sucks, Paypal and many payment processors have become really overly sensitive to things and it's a big problem. I hope you can find an alternative soon
