bren (@brenontheroad) reported@juanfranciscosq @MarcoFoster_ @KyleKulinski So you're basically saying exactly what I said at the start. Once a company grows to $1B, the owner should be forced to sell it to someone else. Once Elon sold Paypal, he has to stop working. Not allowed to invent anything for the rest of his life. Once Bill Gates invented Windows 95, he has to sell Microsoft and has to stop working too. Once Steve Jobs built the Apple 3, he can't invent anymore and needs to sell. Most people don't have a billion dollars to buy their companies, so they'll need to be split. 100 people buy it for $10M each. And all the way down it goes until the companies all the dumbest people in society own 0.001% each. So what happens then? These people are supposed to invent the iPhone? lol

Jade the Protogen (@AmodeusthePure) reportedUhh, so I have a problem…I tried to set up a PayPal account for Ko-Fi, but PayPal immediately flagged my account with suspicious activity as soon as I made it. I don't have an ID. What ******** do I do???

Richard Moreland (@Regiemental) reported@codeofvets @PayPal @stripe You are most welcome. I am so sorry that Paypal has let you down so badly, but hopefully Stripe will be more than an adequate replacement; so that your work doesn’t get interrupted again. PayPal needs to review its policies and they should think first before doing things.

Darijan Ducic (@darijan___) reportedI find the Elon hate so funny. People can’t compliment his work without the disclaimer “I don’t like him BUT…” Relax. The guy made $180M from PayPal and put THE WHOLE thing back into building the next thing. He made all of Tesla’s electric vehicle patents public allowing for competition. And his SpaceX IPO has made 4,400 employees millionaires who otherwise wouldn’t be. So if you’re angry about him becoming the world’s first trillionaire because ‘nobody should be that rich’ or you don’t like his opinions… Remember he’s probably working harder than most of us today not relaxing on a yacht somewhere. And if everyone shared the same opinions the world would be seriously dull. Let’s take the lessons and learn from his success instead of putting him down to make ourselves look good. You can learn from him without liking him or agreeing with him. I think it’s probably smart to do so.

Sam Badawi (@Sam_Badawi) reportedThis is extremely bullish for $PYPL. In fact, it is screaming bullish. BUT (a big but), the only issue is the price. Both fundamentals and technicals need to align for the stock to truly recover. Today, the market would rather pay 156x forward earnings for $MRVL than 8x forward earnings and 1x sales for PayPal. I don't make the rules, I just play the game.

William Hyland 🇺🇲 (@TankaByBill) reported@codeofvets @PayPal @stripe I have to agree with you. I have had serious issues with PayPal and a far smaller account. At this point, I do not believe they can be trusted.

David Dawson (@TinyTalesX) reported@What_is_Praise @catturd2 It’s a terrible process. After I complained enough I got a letter from PayPal basically telling me to sue the buyer if I felt cheated.

Prometheus Unbound (@jimmcerlean2025) reported@GretchenPSmith @PayPal @AskPayPal They do this all the time . They locked my account when a client tried to send a down payment and said they were protecting him from s scam . They then reinstated my account 2 hours later . I got so pissed off I refused to do the job .

Creative Deduction (@CreativeDeduct) reportedNext time you think of giving up, remember this picture. The picture is Elon Musk staring at the wreckage of another exploded Falcon 1 rocket, the third to fail on launch. In 2008, Musk was borrowing money from friends to pay his rent, going through a divorce, SpaceX was running out of cash, and to add to the misery, Tesla was at risk of missing payroll and going bankrupt. Down to his last $40 million of the $180 million he reportedly made from selling PayPal, Musk decided on one last roll of the dice and poured his remaining capital into a fourth launch on September 28, 2008. This time it worked. The rocket successfully reached orbit. Weeks later, SpaceX was awarded a $1.6 billion contract from NASA. A few months later, Tesla secured crucial investment to commence production of the original Tesla Roadster. "I gave both SpaceX and Tesla a probability of less than 10% likely to succeed," Musk later said. Musk could have taken a salaried job and never pursued entrepreneurship. He could have pocketed his PayPal millions and sat on a beach for the rest of his life. Instead, he risked it all and it paid off in a spectacular way, not just for him. His groundbreaking companies have given consumers new and better products and created 1000s of well-paid jobs. SpaceX alone has made more than 4,000 former and current employees Dollar millionaires. It also made Musk the world’s first trillionaire. His detractors tell you his wealth is undeserved. The truth is that when exceptional individuals like Musk run risks that may seem unacceptable to most of us, society progresses and we all gain. Instead of chastising success, we should take inspiration from people like Elon Musk. He didn’t get rich by accident or by luck. He got rich through entrepreneurship and ingenuity, and by taking risks.

Mrs.Sunshine (@Sunshine1rdh) reported@libsoftiktok @PayPal They are terrible! They kick even regular businesses off for no good reason!

Vermilion | VGen (@QAVermilion) reported@Colour_awr @_VGen_ @PayPal Wa. (File a counter issue, show all proof of delivery and that they use the VGen service. If they still side with the scammer, do check the law in your country and basically threaten them, they should revert back the funds to you.)

Mason🛸PHM era (@ItsMaybeMason) reported@Pasta_Eclipse Hi!! If you got it through PayPal it'll say it charged the full amount but it only actually took the $3! If it's showing up in your bank that it took the full amount tho that sometimes happens as a glitch, and you should get a refund any minute, it's the same thing uber does 1/2

Neville Thumbcatch (@NThumbcatch) reportedSerious question... Has PayPal ALWAYS been this ******* ****? Locked out of my account for 24 hours. Rang the helpline - 'Sorry, there's nothing we can do, we're having issues with our system.' A score of 1.3 on Trustpilot seems generous.
-
Anglo (@AngloAlbion) reported@Colour_awr @_VGen_ @PayPal The fact people do this is terrible. I’m sorry I can’t help and that this has happened to you 😩 People are so scummy
-
KGB Komrad (@KGBKomrad) reported@COV_VP @codeofvets @stripe I did see this. After I raised the original issue. The new system is far better than PayPal. Just be aware that their system will try to add a company to your registration. They tried adding my Condo association to my registration because I pay dues online.

Rephormed Nationalist (@AntonTwerkovitz) reported@MatthewParrott JD Vance is a stand-in for Theil, Palantir, PayPal mafia, etc. He doesn't have sensible positions because he doesn't have any actual positions beyond what benefits the aforementioned parties and/or gets him elected. It comes down to how you feel about his backers, mentors, etc.

Matthew Rife (@RifeTechnology) reported@GretchenPSmith @PayPal What happened? I saw that they locked you down this morning, but then saw that you got access back. They got you again after that?
