  @AnnabethUnbound @calvinrobinson Oh sh!t you diss Fr Calvin for asking for donations and yet you do the same.. Why should I donate to you.. Fix your website first. You are grifting for a few quid on Paypal.

  @Mr_Derivatives SOFI's product and non-existent customer service is terrible. It makes me wonder how long they can sustain any growth with such a terrible product. I know Paypal manages it, but the provide a fairly unique service, where as SOFI has less services than a regular bank. There can only be so many new suckers.

  Which case do you want to know about first? 1. PayPal for public debanking and life destruction? 2. Ebby Halliday for 5 yr monetize defamation in DFW? 3. AUSA Scott Free Gmail Fabrication in DC? 4. Writ of Error in DC from J6? LMK.

  Ryan v. PayPal - This case is about PayPal shutting down Jenna Ryan’s account on January 21, 2021 after she shared a fundraiser link on Twitter and raised approximately $200. She had used her PayPal account for roughly fifteen years. Less than an hour after closing the account, PayPal’s Director of Reputation, Kim Eichorn, spoke to national media outlets, including CBS News, and stated that Jennifer had violated PayPal fundraising policies by raising money for purposes other than legal defense. Jennifer contends those statements were false because no such “legal-defense-only” restriction existed in the user agreement. #ryanvpaypal

  @Badie912 @fundstrat @BitMNR Paypal is a great business too but it doesn’t matter when nobody believes in it. For now, it only depends on the $ETH price. That’s the problem with $BMNR

  @ebittdah @Jclouie1Im But that’s why it’s so smart, the market will pay kings ransom for the growing but unprofitable business that is Venmo and put no value on the slow growing money printing machine that is PayPal. Huge value unlock. They can sell Venmo and still maintain buybacks/FCF

  @Evelyn_Evermore The problem is the barrier of entry for many creators. Paypal shows your name as a vtuber, Kofi is alright. But getting people to leave and go to a 3rd party site keeps more people from doing the thing then you would think. Though I agree donate to your creator rather then bits anyway.

  @PramilaJayapal How did immigration/immigrants happen, Paypal? On your big, fat scheming watch. This is on you, so do something to fix it. You opened the borders intentionally to do exactly what you are trying to do. Trying to flip the switch, are ya? Shocker. This is on you. ****** plan for votes. Mass immigration is warfare on the United States of America and you don't give a sh*t. Gross, manipulative, insulting boondoggle.

  @TimeWith99961 Got it—Twitch affiliate approval is based on the public metrics (50 followers, 8 hours/7 days streamed, 3 avg concurrent viewers in the 30-day window). Connecting PayPal or signing the affiliate agreement happens *after* you qualify for payouts, not as a shortcut to instant approval. No evidence they gate it that way or sell your info for spam. Landline calls are a widespread issue from many sources. Focus on pushing those viewer-hours up consistently.

  I'm having a similar issue. I got a new debit card, but PayPal gave me this notification. They did it because they found it suspicious. They ask me to confirm my card, but it's my old debit card that's blocked. I wanna remove the old card, but PayPal won't let me do it.

  Has anyone managed to connect PayPal Vault with guest checkout? It seems it's not working with guest checkout, even though I know it should be. For example, WooCommerce is using it that way, and I tried on my app, but I never received a vault token from PayPal. #paypal #question

  @Dr_Crossroads @KrisPatel99 I know you left PayPal but like for 10 billion more you get a company without debt issues generating 6 bil in fcf buying 15% of the market cap a year. Like I don't disagree that fisv is undervalued but when you have other fintechs like sofi pypl or even shiftfour why pick fisv

  @PVINTERACTIVE @isek554 @NewsWireLK I don't want to waste time with fools. But let me finish with last 3 remarks. 1. Paypal is objectively horrible and their service sucks. 2. Places like Wyoming, USA is far more easier to work with than broken systems like Sri Lanka. 3. It's your choice, so good luck!

  🇺🇸 Cloudflare shares collapsed by 24%. The company has been operating since 2009, but still has an operating margin of -10%. Fund managers use other people's money to buy its new shares, which Cloudflare issues every quarter. This is about 18% of its revenue, it doesn't even need a break-even point. Cloudflare carried out layoffs and, just like PayPal, will lay off 20% of all its employees.

  @msimoni Eeeh there is plenty of precedent of complexity: - Lookalike collisions and fakes ("paypal" with cyrillic letters) - Unicode normalization forms C vs D - Whitespace characters that are or aren't spaces themselves (like vertical tab but way worse) - Composite characters and emoji with zero-width joiners - Search and collation being locale dependent If you have e.g. string interpolation in a language you also need to handle that "properly" inline. Doing it well means being well versed in the Unicode spec. I think what most prefer to do instead is segregate all non-ascii characters from the syntax. That's a solution but it can cause issues in certain locales.

  @PayPal I need a customer agent in the executive offices to reach out to me in regards to a unresolved issue on a debit card fraud issue and replacement card! Your international customer service is a joke and I’ve wasted 8 hours dm me a phone number to the executive offices in US

  If an artist begins to raise red flags by ghosting you, issue a chargeback. It’s always remarkable how fast people reply when you do so!! Please don’t give people blind trust and wait several months for the PayPal time limit to run out!! 🫠 and then you’ll be left on the hook

  @cryptoID_info @AmandoBoncales Hello, I need to renew our blockchain explorer, but I’m having trouble with the payment. Neither credit card nor PayPal is going through successfully. I’d like to ask whether this might be an issue with your website’s payment system.
