    @jimcramer are you saying that I should sell my PayPal? It has done well since you recommended it. I hate it is down.

  • chessflunk chessflunk (@chessflunk) reported

    Imagine if this @PayPal payment plan **** glitched for someone who absolutely could not afford for it to happen. -It said I didn't have auto pay on -Said I never made payment one -Stated an incorrect total amount due -took all four correct payments when I tried to "fix it"

  • shawnistlotp cheyauna (@shawnistlotp) reported

    is anyone else’s paypal giving them issues?

  • bigdumbhawgle Nox The Hawgle 🏳️‍⚧️ 🔜 VancouFur 2022 (@bigdumbhawgle) reported

    I have no issue paying for subs but I forgot that as soon as you add money to your PayPal it favours the over your bank account and takes that. It’s very annoying. I don’t have anywhere’s safe to keep my savings atm, so I left it in my PayPal so I didn’t accidentally use it 😕

  • cnewvine Colleen Newvine Tebeau (@cnewvine) reported

    @AskPayPal I made two purchases this morning and clicked to pay by credit card, but both show they are being paid from my PayPal balance. I looked in the help center for guidance on how to change it and find nothing. I clicked resolution center ... but I can't report a problem.

  • JeffSherbekow Jeff Sherbekow (@JeffSherbekow) reported

    @jimcramer Sure about that? Just a few days ago Affirmed was down $10, and PayPal was still down that day as well.

  • glamfae mt (@glamfae) reported

    @chxrredoll @alexa_legacy I understand. I did have to issue a refund but I did it through Paypal because that is how I paid. It was supposed to be here yesterday and the seller is not responding to my messages.

  • jim_wise Jim Wise (@jim_wise) reported

    @HappyIsAWarmBun @jimcramer Guess I saw today's message as Jim saying don't buy Paypal - "People always ask "why didn't i buy that company's stock when it was down." the answer is that the sellers make it too frightening." But he told Investment Club to buy. Hence the confusion.

  • podia Podia (@podia) reported

    @karldrinkwater Hi Karl, Sorry for the issues with the chat link. We only connect with Stripe and PayPal (for now!), and don't support direct bank transfers.

  • kokallJ Shem Joseph (@kokallJ) reported

    @AskPayPal I can't still send or withdraw money even after the limitations in my account were removed. What could be the problem?

  • CardsCams Cams Cards (@CardsCams) reported

    @HuckCollex @oEnriqueA02 @Byron21067030 But why pay GS on a bet, it sets you up to be able to claim no shipment and get refunded for something that is not tangible and screw him down the line? What are you trying to be protected from by PayPal? This would yell sketch to me if I’m accepting betting money

  • MarcDomville MarcDomville (@MarcDomville) reported

    @JavyCoffee I used the same card to order Javy before, wasnt an issue. The bank says theres no issue, there’s no way I’m corresponding with your rude representatives via email any longer. If you need a paypal to order your product, you’re not going to do very well.

  • emcro Emmanuel Crouvisier (@emcro) reported

    @AskPayPal Hi, I already have, which I was told yesterday the lock was a “system error” and my account was unlocked, but it was *still* locked and 2 more users overnight told me that they received an error that the merchant isn’t able to accept payment at this time. Still very locked.

  • theshadow235 Chris (@theshadow235) reported

    @SeanRossSapp @PatreonSupport Yeah I had issues when I got a new card, had to switch to using PayPal to get it to work.

  • erveki erveki | commissions open (@erveki) reported

    does anybody knows how to fix "funds on hold" in paypal? tbh that's not the main issue but now my whole account savings are frozen because of this so if anybody knows how to fix it dm me please because I almost entirely live off my freelance

  • blpBangtan B☆⁷ (@blpBangtan) reported

    Between @BmtxInc @PayPal & @weverseshop I have now lost $132 because no one knows where it went. Paypal says it's not on their system, weverse says there was no 3rd order, and BMVibe won't do anything until the merchant issues a redund, but merchant already said there's no order

  • PixelClaire1995 PixelClaire1995 (@PixelClaire1995) reported

    I think all is well with me and my friend about the issue with accidentally exposing his identity with Paypal payments. Sadly we decided not to continue supporting people with any forms of payment transactions that would cause any further risk to his identity. I do apologize.

  • RobinVtheDrusky Drösk (@RobinVtheDrusky) reported

    And god, I'm an idiot and forgot to mention it, but if you choose to send me some money -please- poke me directly! I'd love to thank you personally but Paypal names differ to screen names, so it's hard to know who sent what ;; (Re-posting because hurr spelling error)

  • bonez9oh5 Bonez9oh5 | Off Doing Pirate **** (@bonez9oh5) reported

    So far, the team hasn't done anything to fix the hack, but over the last 48hrs the hacker has: -booted mods from my servers -charged over $100 to my PayPal in discord purchases (nitro, etc) -posed as me to try and scam others in my work, school, and Twitch servers -probably more

  • marluv_21 Maria Luz O.Bation (@marluv_21) reported

    @mikelmats @PayPalSpain I couldn’t log in to my account, I have changed my mobile phone number when I try to log in to the app with my old registered phone number with my original passcode I get an error message. Till I reached out to Unitech_Support on Insta and they assisted me in getting my account.

  • Bunny20bun BunfoxX20StudiosVT (@Bunny20bun) reported

    @Writer1Romance I literally hate PayPal I stopped using it ages ago because of there stupid problems and drama

  • itsShyft Shyft (@itsShyft) reported

    @xarnexx It’s basically just PayPal, it’s probably 18+ or 16 or whatever the age is for you but a parent could technically just make an account and give you the login and it’d be fine

  • markhendy Mark Hendy (@markhendy) reported

    @cineworld Trying to book tickets and your app is broken. The card details screen won't load and the pay by paypal button won't function. It's not possible to give you my money!

  • erveki erveki | commissions open (@erveki) reported

    IM STRESSED but like now my whole acc is frozen and I can't use my entire savings to live with now. The only way to fix it is fix this situation i'm guessing because I've sent to paypal all the personal documents already ?_?

  • TimBrig47048844 Tim Bright (@TimBrig47048844) reported

    @jim_wise @HappyIsAWarmBun @jimcramer Hes saying that people will look back and ask themselves "why didnt I buy paypal when it was down?" and that all of the selling is whats making people scared.. He told his investment club to buy the fear.

  • RoseOfLavender Rosy Destiny🌹⚰️🦇 (Alucard's Rose) (@RoseOfLavender) reported

    Because quite frankly I don't think I can buy groceries at the corner store with PayPal, and getting a job is still a task in itself I just need something simple and easy to understand so I can take commissions and crowd fund emergency cash, at least to fix the car and buy

  • mulberryfn mulberry (@mulberryfn) reported

    Is paypal down rn??

  • gomarlins_2000 🙄 (@gomarlins_2000) reported

    @jimcramer Paypal closing in on an almost 100 point decline from its high. People always ask "why didn't i buy that company's stock when it was down." the answer is that the sellers make it too frightening. Your job as a portfolio manager is to separate fact from fear . Investment club

  • EricGamliel1 The Groove Master (@EricGamliel1) reported

    $PYPL Paypal stock is down 25% from Feb peak. I like this co. I use it all the time. I their future. But even w/ this move, I find it too expensive. It's great deal, or no deal.

  • REALUSA2U Rare Bank Notes,Coins (@REALUSA2U) reported

    @oldpapermoney @eBay I got same problem with PayPal and lost 10k. They always favor the Scammers
