  • DivingRhino DivingRhino @ Vault 17 (@DivingRhino) reported

    @TessFowler Just read the whole thread-I can pay by other means too. PayPal has always sounded like a pain for businesses. Sometimes though, I go to buy something and if it's a new platform, I don't purchase. I'm pretty slow to adopt new financial apps/services as I want to limit my exposure

    @DragonGirlGoth I really don't know. I locked my bank account down, changed everything on my Paypal, and he's still making payments of boosts and nitro through my accounts. ANd still phishing. I'm devastated at this point.

  • textfiles Jason Scott (@textfiles) reported

    I just figured out Paypal switched my paypal account from a personal/business account to a pure business account for reasons I get to track down. But it does mean people who send me support funds that way get pulled into massive fees. My venmo: @textfiles

    @britishneens @amycrane_x You'll have to go into the transaction on PayPal, select report a problem. And then select the options in the resolution centre which apply to the company cancelling the service.

  • bear_risa Moira (@bear_risa) reported

    @RipRawlings Also, some of us have problems using things like Paypal but can shop. Always have a wish list running at online retailers so we can drop in and buy things -- for example, someone had up a list for noise canceling earmuffs for arty.

    Just to be complete on this issue, Twitch partnered with PayPal's charity service so Twitch can't add or remove anything on their own without just throwing away everything. Honestly I'd rather they just cancel this partnership entirely if the alternative is including AS

  • aschedjidoi The Divine Irregular (@aschedjidoi) reported

    Unsure why I can't upload a new photo to paypal. It doesn't react to anything to do with uploading an image. I was able to remove the old one, though. But I can't upload a new one. Anyone know how to fix this?
