    @De3Wlfy Isn't cashapp only for a select few countries? And people have had a lot of problems with Paypal.

    **** @paypal and their broken-*** captcha keeping me from accessing my account.

    You think Bitcoin is slow. Wait until you try to process payments with PayPal and they hold your money for 180 days because of “suspicious activity”.

    Only problem is we both live in different time zone and sometimes it feels like a big effort but it's definitely worth it. I usually call her roommate to order and i paypal her the money and she does the same. She texts her friend in India to order from Zomato or swiggy.

    I have a problem and wondering some insight. How do I put “I just want knacks” on my dating profile, but in a holy way? I want to try “SWIPE LEFT if you’re looking for a paypal”

    @AskPayPal fix your ish please, I can’t even log in because your “security challenge” doesn’t even want to work

    DJ CUTE (@DJCUTE__) reported

    Is there anyone who can fix my old account FOR FREE?! Even Paypal or Ko-Fi still not accepting that are age 17 and below. Pretty useless! (My account will be sold if I don't act quickly!)

    @WholeMarsBlog It's never getting back to $414 that's for sure. $TSLA will go down as the Intel of this bubble. Elon knew this, cashed out at the top, bought his next toy for an inflated price with his inflated stock and life moves on. Tesla = his PayPal 2.0

    Jasmine Morris (@jasminejmorris) reported

    @PayPal @PayPal4Business has the worst customer service and is probably one of the worst payment processors out there. That's why I use Stripe, but today I needed PayPal for an issue and their customer service is 100% the worst I've ever experienced.

  • SamTeichman
    Sam Teichman (@SamTeichman) reported

    So I have to file a dispute with my credit card to get back the rest of the money - which they told me I should do - because their "policies" don't allow for them to logically or morally make the obvious fix. Good job being awful, @PayPal/@AskPayPal. Real solid business approach.

  • pralinepower

    @Ghost_Walker_X You were having trouble with paying people with PayPal too? I had to link my actual bank account to it cause it wouldn’t accept my credit card.

  • filexkirimi
    Felix Mutwiri Kirimi (@filexkirimi) reported

    @KeEquityBank I visited the equity Embu branch to fix the online banking access and PayPal withdrawal which was a success. However, I can't log in with the equity mobile app or the web log in two days after.

    Help… What to do when a lit mag makes you “subscribe” via a PayPal link and an annual auto-renew charge? No details or more info re: what exactly you’re getting with subscription, beyond an annual summer print issue, which you never even receive? 1/2

    @TheWerelizard Is that a PayPal issue, or Steam issue?

  • ScatCassie
    CassieScat | Owner of FemScat.com (@ScatCassie) reported

    @8Lilbaby3 @yamthoughts1 @FemScatSocial that is odd. i hope its legit and they are sending to bank accounts again. using paypal for adult stuff is a terrible idea and crypto has insane fees and is kinda sketch so i hated that those were the options they gave me.

    @ArnalMariana @studio_pav There was also a paypal glitch where people got holds on their account for the amounts but no tickets so a lot of people missed the top tier tickets because of that

    ザコ🇭🇰 StarlightBerserker 🇭🇰ザコ (@M4ST3RSP4RK) reported

    @Simpsonill Sorry man, you need to set up the ability to receive STRIPE payments so I can pay without Paypal. Very sorry for the extra trouble.

    2. While PayPal issues a chargeback fee of $20. Stripe issues $15. 3. To set up your business as more established with fully customised options for customers shopping cart check out process & hundreds of integration options for you to decide the best for your brand, use Stripe

  • Pankaj_Gupta81
    PG (@Pankaj_Gupta81) reported

    @AskPayPal Not that you care, but letting you know that DMs and PayPal tickets have been useless. I will dispute the transaction with my credit card company and also report to CFPB. I think PayPal will be willing to investigate & resolve the issue if approached by Credit card company & CFPB

    Is it me or does @PayPal have the slowest ******* platform ever? Just login in fails half the time and the other times, I can head out to the store and come back and it’s still processing. #throwbacktodialupdays

    @hodgetwins Funny PayPal shut my account down for nothing this year weird once I started speaking out against the irish government @PayPal criminals 🙏

    Wulfy 🔞 (@De3Wlfy) reported

    When I was thinking of making commissions, my first thought was doing PayPal, but I need some time to understand the ins and outs. During that, a friend suggested Cash App and told how it works and she had little to no problem and the app’s pretty interesting from the looks of it

    @Arina_BunnyMoto @clubhouse_girls Sweetest woman that I have ever met. That’s Arina Bright Eyes. Honey I was worried PayPal might not be working so I sent a test to my most favorite person. If it didn’t work, let me know and I’ll have them fix it
