SL (@SDL_921) reported@libsoftiktok Is the same type of “Settlement” begun under Obama that has PayPal “donating” to Left-wing NGOs instead of to the Treasury specifically to pay down our debt??

Kevin (@onep7466) reportedWhy is @PayPal asking for father's documents? Just because Adhaar address includes "S/O [Father's Name]" as per their gov ID format? This is a huge privacy overreach and a failure to understand local document formatting. Fix this. @AskPayPal #DigitalIndia #PayPal

. (@0mwh0t) reported@AskPayPal Hi, I’m having the same problem and this didn’t work for me. I can’t access the chat without logging in. What can i do? I’ve tried calling but they said this phone isn’t registered to their system. Idk what else to do

♱⃓˚₊‧꒰ა cierra 👁️🪶|| healing arc ໒꒱ ‧₊˚♱⃓ (@CierraTenshi) reportedI may just be slow and maybe missing or misunderstanding things..but genuinely, what does one even do in this situation? I felt genuinely relieved and happy after receiving this email from @PayPal saying some features of my account had been restored and that I only needed to provide additional information. I logged in immediately following the instructions, but I found nowhere to submit anything. I then messaged customer support only for them to say that I just ignore that email because they decided to keep the limitation. I was cooperative and provided all the info they needed as soon as I could, so receiving that email gave me hope that there was may some progress. I just don’t understand why that email was sent at all if they were just planning to keep my account banned. It feels incredibly misleading and honestly unfair and hurtful.

Kirsty (@FoxesLikeToast) reported@cineworld I’ve had payment taken by PayPal but an error page saying there’s a problem with the payment? How do I know if the order is confirmed?

Chiyoka|VGen comms open (@ch1y0ka) reported@MotchiVT currently having an issue with Paypal where they restricted my account- now i'm scared this problem gonna happen to me as well- i really hope Paypal fix the issue for you as soon as possible 😭
-
Daedalus (@Haydendeathera2) reported@Dylanxjl14 @SkaavArt It's most likely due to payment processors (mastercard/VISA). It's been a recurring problem with EVERYTHING recently. Subscribestar, steam, PayPal, etc. So so so many platforms are changing up their rules regarding NSFW content because of pressure from payment processors.
-
LokiAMouse (@Nightnight60) reportedThank you @PayPal for deactivating my account for zero reason. No warnings nothing just an email saying you deactivated it. I've had that account for years with no issue. I refunded the person, but my account got deactivated -_-
-
Rhyme 🐩💜 (COMM 3/5 SLOTS) (@TheNewRhyme) reportedKOFI IS GIVING ME SO MANY ISSUES ALL MY PAGES IMPOSSIBLE TO DONATE TO, Please help me through paypal if anyone could. i'm so stressed if anyone can help i would insanely appreciate it 😭😭
-
Conte Risto (@accualyisyou) reported@AskPayPal When trying to cancel an order, I am forced into a login loop where I can't do anything within the app. The option doesn't exist on browser after I uninstalled the app, and my phone refuses to continue with it. I have been scammed out of £200 and can't do anything.

ecr.socialmedia (@ecr_socialmedia) reported@AAGDhillon @CivilRights @TheJusticeDept PayPal and Venmo should be shut down.

Jim Osman (@EdgeCGroup) reportedPayPal is down roughly 25% since I wrote this. The market is up more than 30%. That is not just underperformance. That is the market telling you something. In payments, scale used to be the moat. Now distribution, ecosystem control and consumer habit may matter more. Apple is not just competing with PayPal. It is changing the rules PayPal used to win under. $PYPL

vivi 🍒 (@hottdoggu) reported@KiraVampwyr I’ve only ever used PayPal and never had any issues
-
Wave's AD (@WaveADAcc) reportedConstantly said they would send a wip that same day, and never did, 4 times it happened, stating it was finished. I got tired of it and sent a report through PayPal, luckily I was able to get a refund. I'm saddened to hear it wasn't just me having issues with this artist.

♱⃓˚₊‧꒰ა cierra 👁️🪶|| healing arc ໒꒱ ‧₊˚♱⃓ (@CierraTenshi) reported@sawy0s @PayPal There were times that they were but this time, I was just getting shut down everytime💔
-
Kalan Miizure // VArtist (@KalanMiizure) reported@exisbread I have the fees built into my prices because you are losing 10% with those fees. I always offer my friends either Vgen commissions or direct Paypal/Cashapp payment to save money. If they want the Vgen protection that is not a problem, but I am not losing money over it.
-
Shari 🌸 (@sharduncan5050) reported@CarolineDPham @moonpay I’m having lots of trouble with MoonPay! I have a balance that I’m trying to Withdraw. The app only gives me two options, my bank account or my PayPal. I’ve tried both, repeatedly, and MoonPay will not finish the transaction. So frustrating!

Half of my grocery order didn’t arrive, I ****** up PayPal and might’ve lost $ because I sent the wrong person the adopt money (got it the second time and now I gotta wait on PayPal to fix it) But more FFXIV tomorrow (Warrior yay!) *internal screaming*

RubiSapa / ルビサパ (@RubiSapa79) reportedCurrently, my PayPal account has been permanently suspended, making it difficult for me to accept commissions at the moment. I will do my best to resolve this issue as soon as possible! I’m very sorry for the inconvenience.

Mr. Pounce 🖋️📚 Loremaster Vtuber (@MrPounceTV) reported@rhiow I stopped doing direct tips. Too many stories about PayPal tip chargebacks, or getting an unusually large tip that is flagged as suspicious and freezes the account. I've personally never had an issue, but I know it does happen. I use bits for 'direct' monetary now.
-
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
