Javier Writes (@javier_otieno1) reported@Soroosh_Tajdar Services like Stripe or PayPal can freeze funds, hold disputes, or shut down accounts based on automated risks, threatening your cash flow without warning.

The TRUTH sets you free (@DrTruth305) reported@PayPal I need a customer agent in the executive offices to reach out to me in regards to a unresolved issue on a debit card fraud issue and replacement card! Your international customer service is a joke and I’ve wasted 8 hours dm me a phone number to the executive offices in US

Believer (@GinaP1forChrist) reported@Venmo Your app is not allowing me to put in my deposits to verify my bank account, not allowing me to add a new debit card! Customer service is poor and could not help at all! Terrible! @paypal @venmo

TheRealHarleyXO (@RealHarleyBby_x) reported“Pending..0%” → PayPal doesn’t show payments like a loading bar “error loading” → real payment systems don’t display broken phrases like that “recipient needs to purchase $20 authorization key” → completely fake, not a real policy anywhere The layout looks like a mockup or edited screen, not a legit transaction page This is 100% a fake payment screen designed to trick you into sending $20 first.

Tony Franklin (@GamblingHurts) reported@EnriqueJLores @PayPal PayPal has become inefficient and difficult to use in my opinion. I have had issues for 2 months now that despite hours trying to resolve, remain unresolved. At scale, no wonder PayPal needs a turn around. Good luck

Plane biker (@urbanavgeek) reported@BennyFrank1783 @unusual_whales I guess since "good businesses" are moving out, bad businesses move in. Like JP Morgan (3-4 billion office building). Amex 10,000 jobs announced in Feb. Google, Amazon, PayPal, OpenAI. All terrible companies that are expanding in NYC. Blatantly apparent you know fuckall.

Kai - Briefing Block (@briefing_block_) reported$PYPL - PayPal’s problem is not growth. It’s what that growth is worth. PayPal just printed $8.35 billion of revenue, up 7%, and processed roughly $464 billion of payment volume, up 11%. On the surface, that is not a broken business. The issue is that the earnings bridge still looks too thin. Net profit fell to $1.11 billion from $1.29 billion, while transaction margin dollars rose only 3% to $3.8 billion. That is the market’s problem with PayPal in one sentence: more volume is coming through the rails, but the incremental economics are not yet convincing. Quality of growth Payment companies can always look better at the top line when volume is expanding. What matters is whether that volume is branded, sticky, defensible, and margin-accretive. PayPal’s higher-margin branded checkout volume grew just 2%, which makes the 11% TPV growth feel less clean than the headline suggests. Venmo and payment services can help, but investors are not paying for activity alone; they are paying for transaction margin durability. Management knows the gap. That is why the new plan is built around AI, simplification, and at least $1.5 billion of gross run-rate savings over the next two to three years. But cost cutting is not the same as operating leverage. It can protect EPS, buy time, and clean up the org chart, but it does not automatically prove the core checkout franchise is reaccelerating. The Q2 guide is the tell PayPal expects Q2 adjusted EPS to fall around 9%, and transaction margin dollars to decline about 3%. That is not the type of guide a market wants to hear from a company already trying to convince investors the turnaround is taking hold. To me, the stock debate is no longer “can PayPal grow?” It clearly can. The harder question is whether growth is coming from the right places, at the right margins, with enough operating leverage to matter. Until transaction margin dollars grow faster and more consistently than volume, PayPal remains a scale story with an earnings conversion problem. Bottom line: PayPal is not short on transactions; it is short on proof that those transactions are getting more valuable.

🌷 (@cellofdreams) reporteddifficult to figure out for some people since banks often mark it as fraud & it doesn't accept paypal however I use an iphone so I can use Apple Pay and have had no issues so far with it!!

Frank Waterbury (@Sparky6566) reported@PayPal My account is restricted and I cannot access my funds due to a technical error preventing verification. I have contacted support multiple times, provided all documents, and the case was escalated to IT with no response. I have now filed a complaint with the CSSF.

RunekeeperTV ✨ Astral Demigod ✨ (@RunekeeperTV) reported@Evelyn_Evermore The problem is the barrier of entry for many creators. Paypal shows your name as a vtuber, Kofi is alright. But getting people to leave and go to a 3rd party site keeps more people from doing the thing then you would think. Though I agree donate to your creator rather then bits anyway.

Dr. Sserunjogi Emma (@DrSerunjogiEmma) reportedActually I find PayPal good just make sure you follow it's TOS. Been using it for years and have no issues. 1. Do not keep sending/recieving money as family and friends. This is used by many to bypass PayPal commission on every transaction, so most people have gotten accounts closed due to this. 2. Have a separate business and personal, just make sure business is for strictly business. 3. Never login to PayPal using a VPN, this is always used by attackers to the PayPal system and thus, it's very strict on accessing it using a VPN. 4. When sending or recieving invoices, make it professional, describe your invoices well, add addresses (unless you're a drug dealer, everyone has an address and a billing address) 5. Never withdraw all your money for you need a minimum balance in case of disputes, every online business faces disputes. 6. Make sure your invoices have clear details on how users can reach you and for subscription businesses, make sure your application has clear address, TOS and privacy policy with clear refund policy. 7. Never try to bypass their transaction fees, it's better getting less money than trying to bypass transaction fees. 8. Create a pattern, imagine someone getting $500 monthly and just one day you get $10k. 9. When clients send you money, don't rush to withdraw, it's a bad signal. 10. And much more.
