    @KrzaQ2 @andreasklinger I know Deutsche Bahn had fraud issues with people misusing IBANs. So it is somehow possible if the company does not check properly, like example PayPal does.

    @JenMsft PayPal only ever sends emails for this. They make you login to see the details. They usually want tax documents or it’s permanent with no option to appeal the decision. They don’t send you SMS text messages, unless it’s either a 2FA code or to tell you to use debit card chip+pin

    Curious: what have others’ experiences been like using PayPal? Any issues?

    @Zorukia No the comm was only in the sketch phase. They message me wanting a refund because they were having personal financial issues. I highlighted it and showed it to PayPal, it had nothing to do with my services but only through their own personal issues that I have no control over 💀

    Also John Blow was right, the mass layoffs at MS, Google and Paypal, MS mission statement openly saying they won't care about safety issues, hiring randos in Africa to sanitize outputs. Note the deal with OpenAI, it just sounds like Stadia, did they move too slow?

    @bbyybratt Venmo/paypal really cracks down on it is prob why.

    @animebarbies Oh, well at least you didn't complete it and only got to sketch! I could understand personal issues tbh ? Idk, I've been there. Hope you're not in too much trouble with Paypal!

    @WingIessSpits @ultracauaHD It’s also worth noting that you need a credit card to use onlyfans. Online payment services like PayPal or Venmo don’t work, so it’s a huge barrier for minors to even get on there. I don’t think it’s an issue.

    @chYnaRIP @tipico I withdrew from Tipico and used PayPal. Had no issues and it was processed in 24 hours. But I withdrew because the app is trash. It kept crashing and I could barely place a bet

    @Tapebbeats @reesehauber9 I mean it's really on Paypal for having a slow and inconsistent site, not you at all. Paypal's been that way for years, but they don't really seem to care to fix it

    @AmazonHelp There is a software problem; to "confirm" identity, PayPal wants to "text" or "call". We have a "Magic Jack", which does not take "text", and never a "Pavlovian" response from us. In 2013, Verizon rolled-over it's data-base to the NSA. There hasn't been a phone in-house, since.

    Finally, we got a hold of paypal's customer service, but after clearly explaining our issue and the concept of presale, we were getting largely the same response of "fill out these forms with information you don't have and paypal will lift the hold"

    Anyone ever managed to get in contact with @PEGmgmt for a problem with one of their orders?I tried to email them and contact them directly through their website with no success yet. I will contact them via paypal for a refund if nothing else work but I would prefer not needing it

    Or this is my fault, or this is PayPal fault. I cannot use my specially prepared, secondary connected e-mail to my PayPal account, but my primary private e-mail to receieve payments... Someone got such problem last time?

    @FlixBus it has been a YEAR that I have a #BT04 (paypal) and #AD06 (debit card) error while trying to purchase a ticket on ALL your website. Your support is absolutely disgusting. Please fix your back end

    as a team, we made the decision to not fully explain what the issue we were having with paypal was until we either solved it or had to resort to a mass refund.
