  • j_nause j nause (@j_nause) reported

    I clicked an email saying my paypal primary email was changed- which I did not do- and now I cannot login - because hackers- but no reps are available via phone, and it requires I login to an account I no longer have access to in order to file a claim. Cool, @PayPal @AskPayPal 🙄

  • CDiamondis4ever 🔞 Josubae's general Jojo account🔞 (@CDiamondis4ever) reported

    @mochichan @carlikun It's not just Genshin, it's just services like this. I know Genshin won't 2 auth so it's also a bigger problem, but this has been a problem since Ultima time. Someone I knew bought gold in WOW and then they managed to break into his WOW account and his paypal. Gotta be vigilant.

  • ajb_neuk AJ (@ajb_neuk) reported

    Error is on PayPal side and customer service is incompetent if anybody else has this issue. Told to wait 48 hours so tough luck.

  • TMLfanatic Tony Toope (@TMLfanatic) reported

    @ComplexCollecto @Hobby_Connect @CardPurchaser There is one big issue: I live in Canada and I don't have PayPal. To my knowledge, I cannot use apps like Venmo here either. If I use e-transfer, I may lose the only income I have. My only option is a bank issued money order. DM me please

  • imsleek_ Sleek (@imsleek_) reported

    @riotizmz The problem for me is I can’t dowloand the app because it’s not avaible and I don’t have PayPal

  • GPUsAreMagic Nemez (@GPUsAreMagic) reported

    @upsjCC @PayPal Sounds about right... I still have an angry "verify your card" notification stuck there even though I re-added and re-verified the card in question twice now... Just wish I didn't have to use PayPal, but I guess convenience outweighs the issues it has still... 🙄

  • HallidayMJ Mike H (@HallidayMJ) reported

    @iamtimcorey Hi, I'm having trouble with your training site. I have previously bought courses and enrolled in another today. I paid by paypal and was told I'd have access in 15 mins. That was an hour ago. Can you assist?

  • SanjayKumaarr Sanjay Kumar, SelectorsHub Creator (@SanjayKumaarr) reported

    @AskPayPal Hi Team, issue still exist. It is causing me huge loss as I am not able to receive payment. Please help on this asap. Thank you.

  • freya_woolrich Woirlich (@freya_woolrich) reported

    @AskPayPal hi .I m appealing the outcome of a case with @ tonybet.i wrote in the box.clicked ' submit' & it took me back to the login page so I logged in again & it did it again so I don't think it submitted.

  • Bilyola Bilyola (@Bilyola) reported

    @tarrikittyartt I wanted to buy some things off your Amazon wishlist but there were some issues on my end, is it okay with you if I just paypal you the money?

  • paanyokoizumi Lnmaq (@paanyokoizumi) reported

    @AskPayPal the problem still persists, i even added a new card. The seller only accepts paypal as a payment method so i can't just ask him to change it.

  • ThatsForTheBird ThatsForTheBirds (@ThatsForTheBird) reported

    @Justin69672063 @BOOSTLINKS how? I had em added to cart and checked out with paypal and confirmed after paypal login then bad gateway....

  • MarkDDennisPR Mark Dennis - PR (@MarkDDennisPR) reported

    @AskPayPal hi there. I have a buyer who has said for three days straight he’s having problems paying with PayPal/Visa. It’s a high value item and I’m keen to resolve ASAP. It was sold on 20th. Any advice appreciated. Thanks

  • _crypto_irving Irving (@_crypto_irving) reported

    @BOBCATiot @fatherofbeagle @helium And how do you accelerate the USDT orders? By pushing customers who used PayPal and ordered first back down the line? Fulfill your existing order book, honour those customers who have ALREADY paid you. It’s not their fault they paid via PayPal, that’s how you asked to be paid!

  • upsjCC Tobias | BLM (@upsjCC) reported

    @GPUsAreMagic @PayPal I've given up on PayPal after they 1. didn't allow me to add a new bank account even after repeated contact with customer support, then I discovered that 2. their API leaked stack traces on error and 3. their customer support seems to have their hands tied most of the times.

  • YawningJorin jorin 💤 💜 (@YawningJorin) reported

    @_Wathgwen Could you please file a PayPal dispute? That's gonna be the way to shut them down.

  • Boba_Tett Tet (@Boba_Tett) reported

    @LumLotus paypal won't, because they want me to remove a bank account before they do, and it errors when they try to remove it. It's all so broken and janky af.
