jemini×2 💾 (@jeminix2) reportedReason why I would advise putting that specifically in there is in case of charge backs and scammers- if you out nothing and they decided to charge you back, PayPal will look at your invoice and see that there was no good or service written down and you'll have a harder time getting your $ back!

C11R (@_unknown_trader) reported@PolyluminaMed @GagolaValue Nice try, The PayPal comparison doesn’t hold because the conditions that made it a “circular drain” don’t apply here. If you knew anything about $NOW you’d know this. PayPal’s problem wasn’t buybacks, it was that despite deploying massive FCF into repurchases, the share count barely moved because they were constantly issuing new shares through comp packages. Buybacks were treading water against dilution, not outpacing it. Add in a collapsing growth narrative and multiple compression, and the buybacks just gave sellers a bid on the way down. NOW’s setup is structurally different. Dilution is running under 2% annually, FCF is growing, and the buyback program is explicitly sized to more than offset new issuance, management has said so directly. That’s not a drain, that’s net retirement. The “circular drain” as you say label only sticks when three things align, SBC outpaces buybacks, FCF is flat or shrinking, and the stock is richly priced so buybacks destroy capital. Right now, none of those three are true for $NOW . Applying a PayPal frame to a company with the opposite financial dynamics is the comparison that doesn’t shout out, I know what I’m talking about. No offence.

noze ౨ৎ (@nozency) reportedI mean, if the case was the artist you've been waiting for them to open commission, would it turn u down if they only accept payment beside paypal?

wiper (@andersonthecat) reportedi’ve been trying to withdraw $PYUSD since last friday, keep getting an error message. talked with cs for an hour today, they know i can’t withdraw and can’t tell me when i’ll be able to. @PayPal how can a major online bank have withdrawals shut down for an extended period?

SubStarter (@SubStarteroff) reportedRight now, most creators use: 📲 Telegram 📲 WhatsApp 💳 random Stripe links 💸 PayPal or platforms like Whop and WINIBLE The problem? 👇 These platforms are: 🚫 too restrictive 🚫 not professional enough 🚫 overloaded with fees 🚫 bad for long-term branding Meaning creators lose money AND control. 💀

Bachilles (@Bachillez) reported@JohnNumbers I also just suggest with very valuable items to find someone you can sell to privately or someone you can trust, eBay and PayPal always has the potential for issues for sellers if you sell to the wrong person

Milli (@mllsos7) reported@AhmadMatar00 Sir...I have a problem. I cannot give to overseas charity with my card. I can only give to Go Fund Me or maybe PayPal. I am so sorry.

Karl (@Maxxl94) reported@Retailer1041 @TechEquityEng @amitisinvesting Paypal is profitable but stock is going down. Same logic could be applied to reddit (at least for the next two quarters). Fyi: I'm a shareholder in reddit but small position. Will add if it goes to 100 or at the end of the year due to new licensing deals

Leo (@ProfessioanlC) reported@TiredFizz the incident that started this whole issue was an artist who hadn’t even used their PayPal account, getting limited.

Maricarmen (@flaiss87) reported@PayPal Because of all the trouble I had due to the unauthorized use of my account—someone advertising that I was selling something without my permission—I have to close it because of you. It was undoubtedly an employee of PayPal Mexico, since they are the only ones who can access my 👇🏽

wiper (@andersonthecat) reported@j3w7a @comms2point0 i actually did get someone in support chat, they escalated and supposedly are getting back to me. i don’t think i need blockchain forensics, it’s just the paypal stable coin. i need paypal to fix their withdrawal glitch…

Roderick (@KyaloIntel) reportedHawa vijana mnaita smart boys ndio wameharibu market. The guys wenye huibia wazungu pesa halafu wanatumia PayPal and Binance. Now those people think that all of us Africans tuko na hiyo tabia. These boys calling themselves forex traders wameharibu sana. Wanaiba from foreign bank accounts and wire the money through PayPal and Binance. Those platforms saa hii hazipendi nywele ngumu. The moment they see you receiving alot of money, they limit your account and later ban it completely even if it's genuine. Some of us started using PayPal 18 years ago ,it didn't have any issues until around 2022 when the so called forex traders started coming out. Then PayPal started closing accounts for everyone.

adelvafa (@iran0pessimist) reportedSo it seems the issue is that PayPal likes to hold onto payments to collect interest; this is a very ****** practice but payment processors can do whatever ******** they like if there are only like five big ones and they elbow everyone else out. This reminds me of the time my old city pension in New York held onto money/wouldn't let me roll over for the same reasons.
