  **MOLD SAGA UPDATE** Waiting on tools to be dropped off and parts to be delivered so I can fix this pulley and belt and coil packs. Could REALLY use $50 for gas, I’ve only got a half a tank and I need to get to Atlanta and drive around a little bit before I’ll make any money so if anyone wanted to throw me even a couple bucks it would help tremendously.

  Vgen does a lot on their part and are typically pretty responsive when it comes to issues like these,,, Its 100% on paypal. For the others out there, It might be best to set up vgen payments as any chargebacks that may occur will have to go through them and its easier to dispute with a team that understands artists

  I can’t get the straykids beyondlive tickets for some reason. It won’t work on mobile, iPad, pc - nothing. PayPal won’t process and keeps either refreshing itself or saying I need to contact my cards issuer and when I do, nothing is actually wrong. Wtf I’ve never had this issue!?

  @LadyBelvoir every time I do this paypal eventually shuts down my account because I'm not using my real name. Even if it's a business account.

  A shopping plugin quietly rewrites who gets paid at checkout. The retailer pays a commission it didn't owe. The creator who drove the sale gets nothing. That's the kind of thing my guest this week on Won't Fix, @bgedelman, finds and exposes. He read the code for Phia, who called it a recent bug; he collaborated with MegaLag on the Honey/PayPal plugin scandal. Ben has been doing this kind of research since 2001. We talked about a bunch of topics, including the story he thinks is being ignored: AppLovin. He decompiled ~600,000 lines of obfuscated code and has some questions for carriers and AppLovin about their consent/installation practices. AppLovin has said that every install has explicit user consent.

  Hey @PayPal I have an issue with a business account and want to shut it down. I’ve never used it and apparently there’s an issue that needs my attention, but my problem is I can’t find what the issue is or out to contact someone about it.

  I hate this tactic for promoting merch. I can't be the only one that's like fuckfuckfuck gotta get it now or it'll be gone. Plus isn't it convenient that suddenly you have issues with your Internet or PayPal at checkout and by the time you figure it out the item is gone.

  @DonalTDeLay Pay pal is a pain in the ***. I haven’t had nearly the problem with Venmo that I have with PayPal. And only have that account because of customers

  Well KoFi site is back up, but it looks like I can’t reconnect my PayPal at the moment. They seem to have a temporary platform-side outage. Because I have no issues when I select the Stripe option.

  I’ve held for some time that PayPal is an ideally situated asset for a number of payments and fintech companies interested in adding to their portfolio. The Stripe/Advent offer substantiated this but at far too low a price. The board should reject and offer below $80 a share for PayPal. Unique stablecoin asset in a market growing at >60% p.a, huge network of users and growing payments, solid financials and no balance sheet problems to take on. My bet is that Stripe is not the last bidder in the next few months.
