𝓛𝓸𝓻𝓭 𝓓𝓻𝓮𝔂 👑 (@lorddrey) reportedSomeone should create a micro-blogging app where people can discuss news and trends in brevity. This time limit the text to 150 - 200 letters. This is why we signed up to X. But right now X is Instagram, YouTube plus PayPal. Microblogging is broken. We need a new outlet. Trust me. If it's simple and fun people will leave X to build somewhere new from scratch. We miss Twitter so much.

The Craft District (@CraftK163t) reported@Safaricom_Care check dm I'm having issues withdrawing from PayPal.

david (@drfsrom) reported@oooo23 @foxenflask My concern, everyone would jump to X Money, slowly scaling down from PayPal.

Christina (@forestofcake) reported@anna_gcrf Yeah there's an interest free thing on PayPal atm so i'll probably get that, the issue is I get disqualified for a lot of things because I can technically stand and get to the bathroom even though I functionally can't do anything else. Which is really frustrating.

the MIGHTY Chels (@CFC_Batch) reported@Safaricom_Care @GacoyaKori Hello, is there a problem with PayPal to Mpesa transactions?

m. (@zL19uMsnpSU) reportedReal issue though I see is there are many freelancers/companies (incl. me) selling digital products in global market. However, we're forced to use third party gateways and losing potential customers because our policy isn't ready for Stripe, Paypal, Google merchant account etc.

Roberto Savanelli (@RobertoSava87) reported@AskPayPal I cannot access my account because the verification code is sent to my old phone number. I don’t have access to it anymore. I also cannot contact support because it requires login. Please help me recover my account.

Ayere Daniel🇳🇬🇬🇭🇰🇪 (@drey_dr7) reported@ruaidhriart PayPal blocked my art commissions too. Fix: Get US bank via Grey/Cleva → Bybit P2P → your local bank. No middleman needed. No 3 week delays. Steps: [check my bio]

Habib Saba (@HabibSaba4) reported@AskPayPal Hello, I'm having trouble logging into my account because I no longer have access to the registered phone number. I can access my email, but I'm stuck at the 2FA step. Calling support is too expensive for me. Can you please help me verify my identity through other means?Thank you

Rajith Attapattu (@rajith_a) reported@ashoKumar89 I don't get the kubernetes hate. The decision to use k8s has nothing to do with the number of users, traffic or complexity of your application architecture. YouTube ran fine on VMs, so did PayPal, Google and other planet scale apps. Kubernetes evolve to solve the complexity of managing a pool of VMs and the associated operational overhead and it solves that problem elegantly.

Leo (@neurolauncher) reported@maxkarpis Will do Max! Actually there's a really interesting dynamic in the Turkish market right now. For starters global payment systems like PayPal are banned here due to local data regulations. But here the crazy part even though Turkish banks are super modern and issue standard Visa and Mastercards locals still can't use Apple Pay. It’s mostly because of strict data localization laws by the local authorities and local banks not wanting to share commission fees with Apple. So instead of a simple NFC tap Turkish users are forced to unlock their phones, open a specific bank app and scan a QR code just to make a mobile payment. The irony is that as a foreigner I can easily use my overseas Revolut card with Apple Pay everywhere in Istanbul without any issues while my local friends are stuck scanning QR. If revolut can offer a smoother NFC experience or somehow navigate the Apple Pay hurdle tech savvy users will flock to them instantly. With the Lira's volatility giving locals a seamless way to hold exchange, and spend in multiple currencies without massive bank spreads is highly demanded. Actually @getmidas has also stocks and etc but they dont have banking systems. It is just for investors super app The important thing is ending money abroad from a Turkish bank account usually involves high SWIFT fees and terrible UX. Revolut's frictionless P2P and international transfers would solve a huge pain point. I'll definitely keep an eye out and share any updates!

Miss Sweet (@MissSweetDallas) reported@TIF_Productions CashApp and Venmo for regions that allow it. Make sure that they are careful on their notes. For those that don't have access to the aforementioned two, Throne. Create a subtle cash gift. I refuse to use PayPal and Zelle for privacy/protection issues.

Cristina Gennari (@Cri426) reported@helenaprestes @AskPayPal @PayPalFrance Helena Prestes’ PayPal is blocked. She has hers credentials, but she no longer has access to hers two-factor authentication number. Please contact her to resolve the issue. Customer service is not responding. Thank you

Hugofrost (@H2gofrost) reported@AskPayPal My paypal has been permanently deactivated after sending some extra information about me (because they told me to do) It's been only 2 weeks since I started using it. I really don't know what to do for this, I'm actually really sad right now. Is there any way I can resolve the issue? (The cause of this might be VPN; I think I was using vpn when I was using paypal one time before because of Twitch shutdown in Korea)

youssfi abdessamad (@lemeanter) reported@AskPayPal Hello, I encountered a technical issue with my account. It was permanently restricted the moment I uploaded my ID(CIN) for verification. I believe this was an automated mistake as the documents are 100% authentic. Could you please manually review my case? Thank you.

DirtandDissent (@hwoodhmstd) reported@PayPal are you trying to make it so hard for ppp to pay their bills online therefore we rack up late fees? Whats up with your terrible web design that seems to be intentionally obscuring the bill pay mechanism? Which even after calling yall, I have not located.

Victim Tee (@HomeInvasionCop) reported@AnthonySabatini I'm liking Mr Donald's less and less but he is allowed to trade stock and basically legally insider-trade being immune from insider trading laws as a US Member of Congress? What rule is he broken by trading PayPal stock and disclosing it?
