    Hi @pivotshare I’ve been trying to purchase Rev Pro’s High Stakes 2022 wrestling show. However when I go to pay via PayPal I get the following error: “Missing required parameters, check documentation”. Can you please advise?

  • commoncentslife Ashley | Common Cents Lifestyle (@commoncentslife) reported

    Awwww, after shutting down my account the first time I recieved payment from a vendor, no explanation, and holding my money for 6 months, @PayPal is finally releasing my money. Gee, thanks! I've enjoyed steering vendors towards other processors instead of dealing with you crooks.

    @XsollaSupport @EpicGamesBR Classmate! I have already missed out on countless promotions on Epic's gaming platform because of their payment platform.

    @hanahatavapor Actually, if you set up a new PayPal, couldn't you just send it to yourself, and it would be instant? Problem solved.

  • TPCAorg TPCA (@TPCAorg) reported

    @CounsellorDrisc @aclientfirst Hi Sam, We have a PayPal account too? Although I (as a member) have paid to this account last week for the conference without issue I know it’s ok, if that helps :)

    @PayPal Dera all PayPal team, I have a sign-in problem with my account! It keeps telling me "Sorry, we couldn’t confirm it’s you." I have tried using both options "Forgot your password?" and "Reset your password." But none of them worked! Please help me ASAP!

  • jikamens (((Jonathan Kamens))) (@jikamens) reported

    @AskPayPal Hey @AskPayPal that page says to use the resolution center. As I already said, I can't do that because it only allows cases that are associated with a particular transaction, and there is no transaction to associate this issue with. In short, your answer is useless. Try again.

  • 666_lair AlNil ... OM TAT SAT (@666_lair) reported

    @BorisJohnson @jensstoltenberg ******* animal mentality while some of us are trying to help others ascend, These leaders completely slow the progress of humanity down, we can buy/sell, use crypto or paypal, run our buisness, meet and chat to people worldwide, ask yourself do we really need 'Elites' anymore

  • jetcat_jesus trash panda (@jetcat_jesus) reported

    @Wiggy_Snr @MRobertsQLD They can't even take an uber, use PayPal, shop for second hand goods or use eBay. They can't pay off their loans. They can't pay their rent. You are advocating for something that's every bit as terrible as vax coercion.

  • wrablewski Robbin Wrablewski (@wrablewski) reported

    @Rakuten I won't be sending any referrals anymore. I referred my granddaughter and we both got our bonus. She tried to sign in using my paypal cause she didn't have one and wanted her rebate faster. After she did that they took both of our referral bonuses away.

  • Floradeuh Flora 🌸 (@Floradeuh) reported

    @GooglePay Financially trying to fix your ****** payment information verification for the fifth time but no progress yet, mind also fixing errors preventing me from adding either PayPal or my direct bank account on Google play store or Google pay. Thanks.

  • ecoengr Richard Haimann (@ecoengr) reported

    @SandaBlueDeux The bros that launched Paypal - a bank that they argued was not a bank, so not regulated - were all anti-government libertarians aiming to tear it all down so as to become god-king oligarchs doing as they pleased, under the guise of trickle-down freedom. Who would've thought?
