Grok (@grok) reported@noob_contrarian Hey, for your SBI virtual Visa card: It works on GPay/Stripe but fails on PayPal/Namecheap likely due to SBI's restrictions on debit/virtual cards for those platforms (common RBI/PayPal mismatch on OTP/3D Secure). Quick fixes: - Double-check intl transactions enabled in YONO app. - Contact SBI support (1800-11-2211 or YONO chat) to whitelist PayPal/Namecheap. - For Namecheap: Try adding card again in incognito, or preload account balance via UPI/Stripe. - PayPal: Most SBI debits don't work—use a credit card or linked bank acct instead. If still stuck, reply with exact error msg.

Valkyrie 🪽 (@valkyrieinpink) reportedIf there's any problems with orders you have placed PLEASE contact me on kofi first before filing claims it's easier for both of us rather than waiting on PayPal to side on something I could have given you the answer to in 20 minutes

Hugofrost (@H2gofrost) reportedI'm really sorry to say this but i need a time to chill My paypal just got perma banned, I can acccess all of donations I've recieved from viewers and some other irl issues are still ongoing and I have army reverse training for 4 days next week. I'm feeling very emotional now and maybe i will talk about this on video soon but at this point I don't think I can keep doing streaming as a full time if I make 0 on twitch from it

Dan Herbert (@RipnLips30) reported@PayPal being you have zero way to connect with a human how am I supposed to fix my account? I don't have my old phone number to receive a code therefore I can't do anything. Every time I try to use your assistant it freezes my app. Could someone get with me? Please.

Cristina Gennari (@Cri426) reported@helenaprestes @AskPayPal @PayPalFrance Helena Prestes’ PayPal is blocked. She has hers credentials, but she no longer has access to hers two-factor authentication number. Please contact her to resolve the issue. Customer service is not responding. Thank you
-
KateLate (@KateLate45) reported@PayPal I have some issues with your service it forces me unwillingly to use my full government name during transactions and I feel this is a breach of privacy if you do not handle this I will no longer use your services thank you
-
Anakhelon (@Anakhelon) reported@GamingWithNuke @KrestoTheArtist The problem isnt really ISPs, its payment processors. If they cant make money they won't do it. If Visa/Mastercard/PayPal etc all say no go to processing the "donation". then they cant make money off of it.

UnracedF1 - Thanks Peter Sauber🏁 (@UnracedF1) reportedWhy is it so hard to just simply login to Paypal... ******** place your USB key????

They provide financial infrastructure for B2B commerce: embedded payments, digital trade credit, and B2B BNPL. Core mechanic: Buyers get net terms up to 90 days. Sellers get paid immediately. No more cash flow drag. Targets B2B marketplaces, merchants, and enterprises in chemicals, steel, lumber, retail, food. Live with Alibaba, Instacart Business, Sony, Upwork, Fiverr, FashionGo, B-Stock. Surprising demand signal: Heavy pull from fragmented industries where net terms are a hard execution pain. #Startups

Marwane (@MarwaneResub) reported@AnthonyEclipse Exactly. And the chargeback problem goes deeper than just the supplier. Most stores hitting that wall are still processing everything through Stripe or PayPal — one flag and your getting shutdown.

THE SHADOW KNOWS (@brianvi03340131) reported@LynneBP_294 PayPal never had an problem ever

✨️🧚♀️✨️ (@ARandomPixie) reported@rebirthspiritXL I was having trouble with PayPal too, for some reason. I'm kinda worried about the address bc I was placing my order at the same time I was giving someone some legal advice and I wasn't paying attention to the page 😭

Leo (@neurolauncher) reported@maxkarpis Will do Max! Actually there's a really interesting dynamic in the Turkish market right now. For starters global payment systems like PayPal are banned here due to local data regulations. But here the crazy part even though Turkish banks are super modern and issue standard Visa and Mastercards locals still can't use Apple Pay. It’s mostly because of strict data localization laws by the local authorities and local banks not wanting to share commission fees with Apple. So instead of a simple NFC tap Turkish users are forced to unlock their phones, open a specific bank app and scan a QR code just to make a mobile payment. The irony is that as a foreigner I can easily use my overseas Revolut card with Apple Pay everywhere in Istanbul without any issues while my local friends are stuck scanning QR. If revolut can offer a smoother NFC experience or somehow navigate the Apple Pay hurdle tech savvy users will flock to them instantly. With the Lira's volatility giving locals a seamless way to hold exchange, and spend in multiple currencies without massive bank spreads is highly demanded. Actually @getmidas has also stocks and etc but they dont have banking systems. It is just for investors super app The important thing is ending money abroad from a Turkish bank account usually involves high SWIFT fees and terrible UX. Revolut's frictionless P2P and international transfers would solve a huge pain point. I'll definitely keep an eye out and share any updates!

Ndidi Isiah (@didiisiah) reported@UBACares please I need your assistance. Each time I trying paying with my UBA debit card, it declines. Now, I’m trying to link my card to PayPal account but it’s declining as well. What could be the issue?

Bwire♊ (@Bwire_254KE) reported@dexxe I'm getting a panic attack, my Mpesa App suddenly stalled not working anymore, uninstalled it so that I can install it afresh. Checked playstore and its not there, has been replaced by my oneAssApp which isn't compatible with my phone. Can't make a withdrawal from Paypal am stuck
-
m. (@adorekem) reportedPayPal need to fix their payment system, all this scheduled payment business is crap take my payment immediately!!!
-
Timmy Turner (@timmyturner1337) reported@EspurTrashDump @NotJoshart I’d be down if it’s like over PayPal or smth if it’s not too expensive. I’m buying that Tomodachi game so maybe like next week if it’s over 50 dollars

partyman (@p4rtyman) reported@H2gofrost Hugo, regarding your paypal issues. Have you looked into using kofi? Ive heard you can make it work with twitch. Im not sure how much they take from donations tho
-
Timothy (@TimothyBuffett) reported@davidsenra Snaps biggest problem is @evanspiegel ideaologies and woke culture. It is really obvious. He honestly needs to be fired to learn. He needs an Elon kicked out of PayPal or jobs kick out of apple or something so he can learn.
-
Marwane (@MarwaneResub) reported@ParetoMichael @harleyf @ShopifySupport This is exactly why you don't run a 7-figure ecom brand on a single processor. Shopify Payments, Stripe, PayPal — they can freeze you overnight with zero warning. Clean record doesn't matter. The brands that don't panic when this happens have high-risk merchant accounts running in parallel. DM me if you want to fix this properly.
