  • Capt_Preston Captain Preston - BLM (@Capt_Preston) reported

    Hey @PayPal you need to fix your interface, it's convoluted and I've been trying to submit a payment (to me) for a week now. It would help if your system didn't crash when i hit submit for the confirmation of services rendered so I can get paid. Your support is a joke, btw..

  • MaesterDD DDSWorld (@MaesterDD) reported

    @Xoom @PayPal Sent money 7 days ago. Still stuck due to “technical issues”. I am being told no policy to return the money back in a set time and same for transaction to be successful. So just keep waiting. I am super worried and now losing trust in the company..

    @Retro_Fusion If you could find the time to dispatch the £40 worth of back issues I ordered weeks ago I'd be happy instead of having to wait for you to reply to PayPal. Ta

    @OleksandrVelyk1 @AskPayPal I'm very clueless right now. What should we do? I even called the Paypal support number of my country and they didn't pick up. I have more than a thousand euro's on my account and I've literally been locked out of it and no Paypal support number can help me with my problem!!

  • hey_marketer Hey_Marketer (@hey_marketer) reported

    @PayPal You have the absolute worst case resolution process that timed out several times and would load an error message. It wouldn't even allow me to report a issue for certain reasons.

  • IdahoLark Nancy D. (@IdahoLark) reported

    @A_Research_Guru @PayPal Eff that. They are famous for locking down people’s accounts.

  • UndyingFindom The undying one. (@UndyingFindom) reported

    Was excited about the possibility of an RT game from someone but because i acted too nice to them, they’re no longer interested in an RT game. Its only 4:30 in the morning and im pissed. Someone fix that with $20+ in my cashapp/paypal.

  • Rbjacobs RbJacobs (@Rbjacobs) reported

    @xplawbug I'm sorry to hear of the hassles. Should the issue persist please get in touch with our PayPal team over the phone on 087 572 9725 for the team to assist with linking it. RB

    @leewilsontalks Dear Coach Lee, is there another way to pay for your emergency breakup kit? I've been having trouble using my paypal account (long story) and couldn't make the payment. Do you have a direct card payment link for that?

  • denise_reay Denise Reay (@denise_reay) reported

    @IcelandFoods Are you having problems with credit cards on your system? I had to go through PayPal to pay as it didn't recognise my card and now I can't add it back in. PS I've used it before on your site

  • AcidBurn_TD Talar (@AcidBurn_TD) reported

    hey @AskPayPal I can't log into an account I have, as I don't have access to that phone number anymore. How can I login? (I just wanted to delete the account as I don't use it anymore, and have a different paypal account set up)

  • Srdinek JustFallenOfficial (@Srdinek) reported

    @ericz71chevy @RSPrerogative yeah i spend 70% of it and now im just waiting for my new income in PayPal ...thats the only one problem xD

  • deejayiconiqq Deejay Iconiqq (@deejayiconiqq) reported

    @AskPayPal @essyreina I have the same issue. You've exceeded a regulatory limit on payments you can send in a year. To comply with regulations, we need to confirm your identity as the account owner. This will help you avoid account limitations. Please help.

  • qlex_0_ 🖤Alex🥛🎗 📌 (@qlex_0_) reported

    @PlanetDuckk The problem is, I don't think I've received a confirmation email but I do have a charge on paypal

  • andrewcurrie12 andrew currie (@andrewcurrie12) reported

    @PayPalUK can’t get into my old PayPal account coz it wants a second authorisation but the numbers wrong so I can’t sign in ???

  • MatheMattical Matt L (@MatheMattical) reported

    @rmondello Oh, is there a testing suite that is run against popular websites to ensure they’re providing a good 2FA experience? Or, for example, did you encounter this issue with PayPal when doing a personal transaction?

  • emmylou302 Emma Johnston (@emmylou302) reported

    @JetBlue Hi guys, I’ve a simple question about online payment options when in the UK. I’ve tried diff cards and PayPal but nothing works. Spoke with my bank who confirmed this is a Jet issue, not a card issue. Have been on hold for an hour + and would just like to book, thank you

    @daanivfx @bennetfx Yh just like how I made 50k but yk I cant show cause paypal stole my login info 🤨

  • GlimmerGuts Schrödinger's Gender (@GlimmerGuts) reported

    @doodlemancy platforms with enough weight can strike deals with payment processors, those without have to submit to their whims until they do. it boils down to if kofi cares enough to fight for nsfw creators or if they'll just be a doormat for paypal

  • Blutgang_3 Blutgang (@Blutgang_3) reported

    @Ghost_of_Mo I have a question: what if the winner doesn't have PayPal? I know a few of us in the server that don't

    There are days where PayPal is such a pain in the ***, but today man PayPal was so helpful. They saved me a lot of trouble @PayPal

  • radelster Joseph Elster (@radelster) reported

    @AskPayPal detects login from other than home. forces password change. If I HAD hacked someone's account, logged in from MY home... @PayPal would force ME to change someone ELSE'S password... thereby giving away access to their funds! #theft
