Mange Marrow (@mangemarrowad) reportedWith my birthday being next week, if anyone wants to send me anything, the best bet would just be cash. With me being out of work with my broken foot, I’ve been kinda ******. Obviously I don’t expect anything, but if you’re feeling generous, I have PayPal, Venmo, and CashApp. <3

Linda Khumbanyiwa (@LynneKayennestu) reportedHow did I send a PayPal payment to the wrong account? not like me at all, my spirit doesn’t allow me to make cowboy errors but I ignored my gut.I went against my intuition.This is a reminder that it’s not just about listening to your intuition but actually acting on it🙏🌸🌸

Kumukane (@innongwaru) reported@FlyAirZimbabwe Hi, I'm trying to book tickets from LGW to HRE but your website has several issues: • No Terms & Conditions • No baggage information • Missing payment options (Klarna, PayPal Pay Later etc.) • Site keeps freezing/crashing • No contact email Please help!

Merchant Risk Desk (@MerchantRiskDsk) reported@supawatkaewma One dispute triggering full account closure even with evidence submitted shows the real risk of routing everything through a single processor's Connect layer, they own that decision entirely. Moving to whop just shifts you to a different aggregator with a similar structural risk, payout holds tied to internal reviews, no real appeal path. The more durable fix is decoupling your payment acceptance from any single platform's risk call. PaymentKit lets you run Stripe, PayPal and others in parallel with your own token vault, so one processor's dispute policy cannot end your ability to pay clients.

David Bucio (@DinkinFlicka84) reported@preterniadotcom Picked these up for my little one. I used the PayPal option for payment though, does anyone know if that will be an issue with a GameStop preorder?
-
Kittyywarrior (@kittyywarrior) reported@TrippWahDog How did you pay them? If you paid through paypal, you can issue a chargeback.

Osya (@OsyaKDR) reported@AskPayPal I'm sorry, but the problem is that I can't log into my account to write to support and I can't call because I don't speak spoken English well.
-
KIRA (Field Mutt) (@KiraMuttaro) reported@RossoVermil No, Kodiak says he canceled payments, PayPal returned the money due to StarCat’s account issues, and he needed it after losing his job. Without actual donation logs or proof it was kept for profit, and Kiwi made the call not him it’s not the smoking gun you’re making it.

Blessings ᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠᅠ (@Superblessings1) reported@AskPayPal Hi, my PayPal account is registered in Malawi. I could receive payments in 2024, but now senders get the error: "The country you're trying to send a payment to cannot receive payments." Could you please check if this is an issue with my account or a restriction for Malawi?

🌙SOL🦈【Shiver】 (@SolAltairVT) reportedI don't think they use AI, a lot of their sketches look normal but I could be wrong. The main issue I see is their security. Anyone can see your full name, email, phone number, and PayPal email. Since I'm not a fan of my information being shared without my permission, I'll be taking my commissions off of CommissionsGG. I'll be remaining on VGen as always, but I don't trust the CommissionsGG website anymore. @commissions_gg , please be aware that your website has a huge security risk to your users!
-
Hanii || VGen Open (@thisainthani) reported@ru_sae Congrats! But, please don’t leave your money on PayPal. It’s too risky specially with the issues some users are currently experiencing rn. 🥲

Ahmad (@ARM_04) reported@AskPayPal Why have you stopped replying to messages on PayPal and only send an automated reply that doesn’t solve the problems?

Rudolfs (@ecomrudolfs) reportedIf you are doing above 500k a month with ecom Listen I have had houndreds of DMs from ecom guys just like you They thought they will be safe on Shopify payments But they were not Still ran into reserves, holds, shutdowns, etc. The usual case: - multiple 8 figs processed with shopify - CB % below 0.3 % - Local manufacturing - As white hat as ecom can get But they still got betrayed Lost all the subscription tokens (some recovered via auth net plugin) Almost killing their whole business over some new behavioural program VISA came out with Now mastercard is doing the same Once it goes live (on 24th of July) There will likely be the same wave of shut downs as there was when VAMP came out What does it mean for you? You could have 0 chargebacks or 0 refunds (which no one at that scale has) And still get shutdown They are basically trying to shut stores down before they can do any damage Issue here? Behaviour monitoring in ecom mixes up BH and WH stores Because on the front end it all looks the same - pre chceked boxes - claims on landers - before and afters - tampered testimonials The list goes on That is why there where so many wrongful shutdowns when VAMP came out What can you do? Switch away from SP before they shut you down Move to a CRM and Private processing (MIDs) You would own your subscription tokens Have the native shopify checkout Yes you can still have apple/google pay and paypal Also if you didn't know Shop pay was opened up recently and CRMs are working on implementing it in their system Meaning? Soon you will also be able to have Shop Pay wihtout shopify payments If you want guidance on how to set this all up and get the connections that you don't have (heads of the biggest CRMs, ISOs, fintech companies, etc.) Feel free to send me a DM ps. I don't charge anything for this

Sou Chi (@Sou__chi) reported@AskPayPal @AskPayPal @PayPal I need urgent help. A US-based company is trying to send me a payment, but it was blocked with Error Code 14764. My card is fully confirmed, but I am located in Algeria, which might be triggering this compliance block. I cannot DM you. Could you please help me

believebeliebers unnati (@FLAVOURSKITCHE2) reported[HIRING] I am looking for Indian video editing client hunters. I'll give 10% per project. Must use different payment methods like Paypal, Wise (most likely). Dm me or comment down if interested #hiring #HiringNow

지창민의 달 saw no more dream | jk follows tbz😛 (@changminsmooon) reported@7euphoriabts It’s your payment method. I used PayPal for my date for three different orders and it went through. Others had problems using things like Apple Pay. So hopefully you can try again unless it’s all sold out! I’d try PayPal next time!

-
TheMarketTell (@TheMarketTell) reported@NotA_Bull Wouldn’t necessarily say broken. $NKE is a turnaround story. $PYPL is an execution story. PayPal is still growing TPV double digits, buying back billions in stock, and generating massive FCF. The market just wants to see consistent growth reaccelerate.

Cody J. Swanson (@CodyJSwanson) reportedWhen I was ceo of Paypal, one thing I learned is the fraudsters always make the most noise about an issue.
