  I am not pleased with you, @PayPal. I'm in the middle of a move. Merchant only takes PayPal. Addresses in flux and your algorithms choke and I cannot pay them. And your customer service is powerless to fix it. I expect better from you.

  @KamuixMetatron or they will not and keep doubling down and then rumble will grow more... even tho a lot of things there sucks, the upload system of theirs is terrible and paypal payment is crap, the experience to viewer isnt good as well, the player is terrible there. Kick is growing very well and actually became an alterntive to twitch because of twitch doubling down for so long, i think the same will happen with youtube given enough time doubling down and damaging huge creators

  When Musk has 200 billion, he doesn't consume it-he allocates it. SpaceX/Starlink/Neuralink/xAI. Every dollar is bet on the future. He has a track record PayPal/Tesla/SpaceX. He knows how to spot massive problems and allocate resources to them with spectacular returns

  @DorLinder @MAC_ARMY1 I got a letter from PayPal saying the investigation of my account was complete and they found that I owe them money. Problem is I don't have a PayPal account. I deleted it.

  to note, you should only do this once problems arise, like the artist is being incredibly unresponsive, consistently missing deadlines, or trying to push you back past the 180 paypal days. all my artists have been incredibly lovely to work w/ and i haven’t had to do this!

  @acce @noyesclt @sytaylor I have followed your work at PayPal very closely, and in my opinion, you have done a terrible job. It would not be human nature for you to admit your own mistakes, execution has only been empty words interpreted professionally!

  Unbelievable. Now @coursera is closing my new support tickets without even replying, despite their own policy and 'Cora' confirming my refund eligibility earlier. I’ve officially opened a dispute with PayPal to get my €42 back. Fix your support system. #coursera

  @withoutname820 I truly understand how frustrating this situation is, and I’m sorry you’re dealing with this. I know you need to receive the payment on that specific email and that creating a new PayPal account or using a different payment gateway isn’t an option for you. Unfortunately, issues related to receiving payments on a specific email or account restrictions can only be reviewed and resolved by PayPal Customer Support, as they are the only ones with access to account-level details and verification tools.

  If you're receiving money as a freelancer or agency owner or any service based businesses in India, you should be using @Infinityapp_in This is why I genuinely love it. Lets break down this $1400 of inbound payment. > If received via Paypal, I would have lost at least $120 (11300 inr) in fees and conversion. > If received via Wise, again $14-20 (1500 inr) in fees, and client needs to be on Wise. > If received via Dodopay, around $80 (7500 inr) goes to fees, also client needs to pay extra in VAT. ✅ Received via InfinityApp, can't believe that I paid only 659 inr in fees. Insane. Unreal.

  @AskPayPal I am writing to formally escalate my issue regarding the limitation placed on my account and the inability to access my funds. I would like to clearly state that I have not engaged in any activity that violates PayPal’s policies.

  xpaml (@jstalloser) reported 46 minutes ago

  @AskPayPal The issue with my account name occurred unintentionally, as it was automatically filled based on my email address during registration. Despite this, I have fully cooperated with your support team and submitted all requested official documents to verify my identity. Unfortunately

  @MKaze_Sp Bro, I'm having issues with my cards to pay on PixIv, is there any issue if I directly pay you through PayPal for this one?

  Nkozi Knight (@NkoziKnight) reported 47 minutes ago

  The U.S. government is now accepting DONATIONS to help pay down a $39 trillion debt. You can literally send money through PayPal or Venmo. That alone should tell you something. This isn’t about a donation program, it’s about scale. At $1 million a day, it would take 106,849 years to pay it off. Human civilization has only been around about 5,000 years. Now layer in what’s actually happening underneath. Interest on the debt is approaching and exceeding $1 trillion per year, meaning we’re borrowing just to pay interest. The Federal Reserve spent years flooding the system with liquidity, and even after tightening, the system is still dependent on that support. At the same time, a massive portion of American wealth, especially for baby boomers, is ******* in home equity. Tens of trillions sitting in one asset class that depends on stable prices and favorable rates. So here’s the reality. If rates stay high, the cost of servicing debt keeps climbing. If rates fall, it’s likely because something in the economy already broke. If housing weakens, a huge portion of perceived wealth disappears. That’s not one isolated issue. That’s a system where everything is connected and leaning on the same pressure points. Call it what you want, correction, recession, reset. But this idea that everything is fine while the government is asking the public for donations doesn’t match the math.

  @PayPal @EnriqueJLores Today, thousands of customers R sharing complaints on X every day,a clear sign that the support system needs improvement. The message to corporate CEO @EnriqueJLores :Treat customer issues as a responsibility,not a case number. Fast & honest resolution builds trust #CustomerFirst

  i quickly realized stripe and paypal simply cannot work for payments on opendojo due to regulations, fees, and processing times that's why i chose the stablecoin USDC as the default payment method, which seems retarded and prohibitive to user onboarding, but actually here is what i discovered: - crypto is borderless, naturally increasing dataset diversity, scale, and simplifying legal - crypto is somewhat anonymous, preserving the anonymity of AI labs who don't want to reveal their next moves - crypto is faster and cheaper than any bank, meaning more money goes directly to the people so far i've processed 1000s of dollars without any issues, and i'm really looking forward to seeing how the system performs with scale

  @RogonUsaryis @PayPal They would only indefinitely fill up server space with junk, as whatever database is being written to, to store account data and logins would just be growing bigger and bigger with dead accounts and junk.

  @PayPal fix your damn process to report fraudulent transactions. I've been given nothing but errors for days now.
