    @annunakkki I'll pay you £50 if you set up a alternative crowdfunding account. I have an old PayPal account that won't let me sign in because I've changed my phone number since creating the account and the only way to update my phone number is by signing into my PayPal account which I can't

    @Yakamaru89 @HMBohemond Unfortunately they intentionally drug it out longer than 180 days so PayPal won't issue a refund. Im basically ****** over for lack of better terms.

    @PayPal and @SafaricomPLC, I am seeking urgent resolution of a transaction issue. In November 2025, a withdrawal from my PayPal account to M-Pesa failed (via mpesa app) , but the funds were deducted from my PayPal account and have never been credited to my M-Pesa account.(1/2)

    @Shrty7081 when I cash out, it takes about 8 days to go into my paypal account! I have noticed a glitch, for example, if you have $50 processing & if I cash out again before the $50 pays out, I will get everything at once & don't hv to wait 8 days for the 2nd payment

    Every time I try to buy a flight with my VACU account it thinks it’s fraud🙄 every single time…..and then when you clear it, still doesn’t work. Terrible customer experience. It didn’t even want to do it through PayPal which usually works. They lucky I got options🫩

  • WEfootsteps

    This is for everyone’s awareness. I allowed one person to borrow my PayPal account strictly for paying PerthSanta photocard transactions, under a clear agreement that it would only be used for that purpose. However, I later discovered that my PayPal account was used for personal transactions without my knowledge or permission. On top of that, this person received money through my account without informing me. Because the funds were placed on hold, I only received ₱18,000 and immediately refunded it. She then claimed that the ₱18,000 should be transferred to GCash account which I did, and since my PayPal account was on hold, the remaining amount of ₱33,718.14 automatically released and sent back to the sender. Despite this, the sender still reported my PayPal account and falsely accused me of being a scammer in relation to concert ticket payments. I had absolutely no involvement in any of these transactions, as my account was used entirely without my consent. The sender also harassed me and threatened to sue me for crimes I did not know about and did not commit. This situation has caused me extreme stress and sleepless nights. As a result, I am now dealing with the consequences, handling refund disputes, and my PayPal account has been permanently shut down due to actions I did not commit. Let this serve as a serious warning: never allow anyone access to your financial accounts, even if you fully trust them. One wrong decision can lead to severe consequences, false accusations, and irreversible damage to your account and reputation.

    @Yukime_VT Isn't it a scam if I pay the down payment with PayPal but can't use PayPal for the remaining balance? Normally, you can use the same payment method, right? Is Germany unusual?

  • djk_downunder

    Merchants hate payment fees. Stripe: 2.9% PayPal: 3.5% $XEC eCash: 0.0001% That's not a rounding error. That's a paradigm shift. When @Coinbase Commerce supports $XEC, this becomes real for millions of merchants overnight. #XEC #eCash #CoinbaseListXEC

    @bitchuneedsoap If Venmo is being used to finance these riots why hasn't the CEO of Venmo, Alex Criss which is owned by PayPal, shut down these accounts, they are just as guilty of all the destruction.

    @alluringmedia Just spent 30 minutes on PayPal arguing with their AI agent before finally finding their phone number online to talk to a real person. I am certainly not the only customer to do this so how is this cheaper than a roster of educated humans to fix those unruly details of commerce.

    Dronestahl (@dronestahl) reported

    @sleptonmypencil Yeah, this was a major bummer. I don't understand how PayPal is okay with just dismantling someone's account like that. It's like if you get paid for too many comms, they close you down, which is insane. I'm sorry this happened, bud.

    @EvaliaVae They had no issue giving me the refund- and I'm currently waiting for paypal to clear the payment; but Its just insane that after they told me they're going to die, its crazy
