Geez Designz (@Geezdznz) reportedReally disappointed with @PayPal @AskPayPal They marked my transfer from PayPal to my bank account as “completed,” but I still haven’t received the money. What makes this worse is that this has happened before — and I ended up losing the money entirely. Their support system is honestly pathetic. Calls never get picked up, there’s barely any proper way to explain the issue to a real person, and the automated support never even addresses the actual problem. This is people’s hard-earned money. Completely unacceptable experience for freelancers and creators depending on timely payments.

MayumiBeans 🔞 | Furry Artist (@MayumiBeans) reported@FlorinaSimp When you deal with paypal in any situation it does not matter if the client doesnt want it at all. Paypal saw it as buyers remorse. Because of this i HAD to get the piece done whether i liked it or not. The only reason i ended up losing the case was because he had deleted the images of his character to confirm of his own character. Which is bad faith of any buyer when it comes to goods and services. I did not tell him i wasnt going to do the work, he twisted my words and continued to instead speak about it behind my back and block me without consulting with me to begin with. That is not my fault for him not wanting to even discuss with me. He did not have to “pay for another commission” if he didnt want to. I have others waiting as well. And i myself am struggling financially. That has nothing to do with the buyers feelings especially when i have never had this issue with a poor client like him who ended up slandering and insulting me after everything. Everything about this issue erupted because he misconstrued what i was saying and instead of trying to level with me, he ended up falsely accusing me of things he thought i said without discussing because he twisted everything after i told him what i was going through. As a friend i tried to tell him. And instead he used it against me. Dont believe every false thing or accusation when it comes from someone who doesnt even understand the full picture. Or who has multiple people and other artists who came to me and told me about their personal issues with this client ozox. Because there is more than 3 artists ive spoken with who have had similar issues with them personally and instead of talking they ghosted them and blocked them and cut ties. Then slandered them. The piece i did was from the demand of paypal. How he feels about it doesnt matter. Paypal is the one who cares about the delivery.

Infold's Clown (@QuietRants_) reported@valebxiaa I'm so sorry this has happened to you, its a really ****** thing to have happen. Can i ask, because i saw this paypal issue lately, were there any descriptions/words said to indicate nsfw in your invoices? I dont use paypal, but i heard that thats where they check

Ducky (@insultduck) reported@wil_da_beast630 @FedEx Wil, you are big enough on here to get their attention, I'm, sure. But, I had a similar runaround situation with PayPal not too long ago involving someone fraudulently using my account to issue payouts. When their customer service was useless, I started finding people in their corporate structure on "Linked-In" and emailed them directly. In my case, it finally got the attention of someone in the executive office, who actually resolved the issue in ten minutes. So, if this doesn't get their attention, start privately contacting anyone you can identify at FedEx corporate. Skip the traditional customer service route. You've got to get a hold of an actual decision maker.

Ortis (@I_am_Ortis) reportedI wonder whether this means that the credit cartel, @Visa @Mastercard @PayPal , could no longer claim that people purchasing legal products might "damage their brand." That's the excuse they've been using to close people's businesses and shut down payment processing.

azu ⋆˙⟡ ᴠᴀʀᴛɪꜱᴛ (@azusai_) reportedHow to avoid this issue!! 1. Do not ever disclose that you do nsfw or lewd art. Nsfw is against PayPal tos. Ask your client not to too. (Seems bad but we have no choice) 2. Do not deliver the files through paypal if it’s nsfw. 3. You do need some details on invoices. Make it as generic as possible. Eg. “full body art commission on xyz, to be delivered on xyz”. Keep your NSFW details away from PayPal!!
