Free Thinker Tori (@FreeThinkerTori) reported@SarahisCensored @JinxedRealityX She has a PayPal pool up now and PayPal won’t let me report it, and when I try and escalate their “Report Pool” button not working, their AI bot won’t let me go farther.

Evan Luthra (@EvanLuthra) reported🚨ELON MUSK'S BROTHER SOLD HIS COMPANY FOR $307 MILLION AT 26.. THEN GAVE UP TECH COMPLETELY TO COOK FOR FIREFIGHTERS IN THE RUBBLE OF 9/11.. THIS IS THE MUSK NOBODY TALKS ABOUT.. Most people only know Kimbal Musk as Elon's younger brother.. But his actual life path makes almost no sense on paper.. In 1989, at 17, he left South Africa for Canada with almost no money.. He paid his way through university running a house-painting franchise.. And won manager of the year doing it.. Then in 1995 he moved to Palo Alto with Elon and they started Zip2.. An online city guide and mapping company, years before Google Maps existed.. They were broke.. They slept on the office floor and showered at the local gym.. To impress investors, they built a giant fake casing around a normal PC to make it look like a supercomputer.. In 1999 Compaq bought Zip2 for $307 million.. Kimbal, at 26, walked away with around $22 million.. He could have done anything.. Retired.. Started another tech company.. Coasted on the PayPal and Tesla fortunes that were coming.. Instead he enrolled in culinary school in New York to become a chef.. His timing was brutal.. He graduated in 2001.. Right as 9/11 happened.. He lived steps from the World Trade Center.. So he grabbed his new skills and spent six weeks cooking for firefighters and rescue workers at Ground Zero.. 10 to 12 hour days in the wreckage.. Feeding the people pulling bodies from the rubble.. He said that experience changed everything.. Watching exhausted workers find comfort in a shared meal convinced him that food was his actual life's purpose.. He moved to Colorado and started building farm-to-table restaurants that sourced straight from local farmers.. Then in 2010 came the second turning point.. He broke his neck in a tubing accident and was temporarily paralyzed for three days.. He called it a near-death experience.. And it pushed him even harder into his mission.. He started a nonprofit that built outdoor learning gardens in hundreds of underserved schools.. Reaching hundreds of thousands of kids.. He co-founded an urban farming company growing food inside shipping containers in cities.. Each one producing the equivalent of two acres of farmland.. And then in 2022 he did the strangest pivot yet.. When Intel decided to shut down its light-drone division, Kimbal bought the whole thing.. 9,000 drones and the engineering team.. Now his company flies massive drone shows that act as pixels in the sky.. Including over 3,000 drones above St. Peter's Basilica at the Vatican.. Recreating Renaissance art in the night sky.. One brother is trying to colonize Mars and build humanoid robots.. The other made his fortune in the same rooms.. Then spent the next 25 years on something almost nobody expected.. Feeding people, teaching kids to grow food, and turning the sky into art.. Same beginning.. Completely different definition of what to do with a fortune.

LesbianWitchAcademia (@BnnuyLesbian) reported@vexmlk @PayPal have everyone who has ever given you money issue a chargeback to paypal. Tell them to say that their funds have been withheld and are being prevented from reaching their intended destination, and most banks/cards will allow it.

3ll3_Wood5 (@simbaha18) reported@ImBreckWorsham So true but I can one up you. I was trying to get a refund for a warranty issue on a keyboard I got my son. The only way they will send the refund is through PayPal. It’s like they are trapped in 2000 and can’t let it go.

Just Us (@just_us6973) reportedWhat is going on here @PayPal ? CodeOfVets has been doing great work for ages! What on earth is the problem here? Surely you can sort it out - if not, a lot of needy people will be impacted!!
-
~~ Lupie~~ 🦋🐺 💜💙🇬🇧✌️ (@IsItBacardiTime) reported@PayPal your managers are extremely rude, I have spent 4 hours over the last week trying to sort a problem, I asked to speak a manager as after 6 colleagues not understanding or answering me question. He was extremely f'ing rude and I am fuming.

Kurt (@BallKA1) reported@Gianl1974 One very rich person attacking another, even richer person. All the while, the ‘richest’ government in the world wastes more money allowing fraud & wasteful spending. She chooses to post about this vs fixing a broken govt. Elon builds cars, spaceships, neuro chips & PayPal?

.˚𓏲 𝔏𝔶𝔠𝔲𝔰'☥.| Vartist (@BatLycusx) reported@ZandoraVT It’s kinda not really their fault tho, it’s Paypal.. if the artist used vgen payment and faced this issue which it wouldn’t even happen bcz they can’t chargeback on a bank transfer or request refund without artist approval or vgen involvement I would definitely fault them

AMINE (@blackanime0r) reported@Colour_awr @_VGen_ @PayPal ya its a big problem

Brandon Scott Arbuthnot (@brando_sui) reported@aemondotsui @smileyJones0 Was -$0.97 balance in Paypal the other day, and it wouldnt let me sell from my crypto account to pay for it as a result (design error) Had to wait for support and endure a 25 minute phone call with "john"🇮🇳 to credit me $0.97 so I could even access my own crypto..

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.
-
Derek Trotter (@DelB0yTr0tter) reported@HoweyJohnn34169 Thank you for the feedback. I suggest considering the affiliate program which is the next release and will be launched imminently… three referrals brings the cost of membership down to zero and from there its 40% of every recurring monthly fee that Vivé receives from every referral paid directly via Payoneer (we chose them because PayPal is dying and doesn’t operate here but they offer exactly same services) and straight to your bank account from there… every referral can start referring as well (instantly) with a live membership All details are on the website and inside the platform under the Affiliates tab

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

Nyuyu ☁️🍭 VGen Artist 🌸 (@Nyuyu____) reported@Flip_Uni @xCookieHana Awww thank you!!! I alrdy played again with the thought even lowering them more but i wouldnt make much at the end due to vgen and paypal fees lol Full agree with you there, regardless of c○mms or the shop feature, when u use the pricing option it just feels like not working

MuadDib - Maybe it's time for a general strike (@Muaddibisme) reported@merrylynn06 Public servants becoming millionaires is a problem. However, your analysis of musk is **** He coded like 10% of a website for zip. Who was bought by PayPal , making musk rich. He bought the car company. The rocket is his only achievement and he's using it to scam you.

Artist in residence (@artyfarty75) reported@wariocolosseum Musk was born in 1971. He first appeared on the Forbes Billionaires List in 2012 (around age 41) with ~$2 billion net worth.  He made significant money earlier: ~$180 million from the PayPal sale in 2002 (age ~31), but it took further successes with Tesla and SpaceX for him to solidly reach billionaire status. The “40 years” rounds up from birth but overlooks that meaningful wealth accumulation accelerated in his 30s–40s through entrepreneurship, not a slow linear grind.  Now he is making $1 BILLION every 15 minutes from SpaceX stock moves alone.”Exaggerated but directionally illustrative of recent volatility. Musk’s net worth hit ~$1.3 trillion as of June 17, 2026. This is paper wealth tied to stock price fluctuations, not realized cash income. It can (and does) go down. This post reflects the polarised online discourse from people spreading misinformation or partial truths, exaggerated by the misinformed.
