    Weibo Cheng (@weibocheng) reported from Santa Clara, California

    @AskPayPal PayPal has no customer service to solve urgent account issue, our biz need the money, I am so surprised that PayPal has such a poor customer service team!

  • ms_madvinyl
    suemax (@ms_madvinyl) reported from Atlanta, Georgia

    @blueravensong I usually buy only from record stores. And use PayPal so I have a recourse if there is an issue. This seller was very communicative once I got a reply.

  • FalcosDeejay

    @AskPayPal please hire more people on the support team. My company’s account is limited and I can’t pay my artists and resources to keep my business running. We are in 2020, issues like that need get fixed within a day. Thanks

    @PayPal It’s inexcusable why you continue to take our money but fail to provide ANY customer support for fraudulent activity. If you can’t operate properly, shut it down. #criminal #paypal @bbb_us

  • tysonjfisher
    Tyson (@tysonjfisher) reported from Gainesville, Florida

    I said it going into last week, if PayPal is <120 before earnings I’m calling, >125 I’m shorting. Weaker than expected earnings (which I expected because production down in China hurts PayPal)

  • NAUTILUSTEARS1
    NAUTILUSTEARS (@NAUTILUSTEARS1) reported from Stockbridge, Georgia

    So when he said he got the $299 that he needed another $299 because of the state I live in. He had my Cash app info and my PayPal information. But couldn’t send the money until I paid the fees. I broke down and cried because I didn’t have the money.

    @thetymonbay @PayPal @PayPalIN @AskPayPal This is pathetic and also surprising as in my case they have been pretty smooth always. I hope they fix it soon.

    @Sturrmm @EddiePenceFans I think some people had some issues. I believe the work around is to use PayPal. Sorry for the issues.

    @sadlysparkling I always pay using PayPal to be safe because if there is an issue, a dispute can be opened, but have had no issues yet tbh

    Tae’lur Alexis🦄🔮 (@TaelurAlexis) reported from Kingsland, Georgia

    @crowder @jcrichman I tried to contact each person so they can verify but some say they did and nothing’s happened. I guess I’ll wait it out a week. And it doesn’t help that PayPal said their customer service is down a bit because of covid rofl

  • scumbagshorty
    a.jean (@scumbagshorty) reported from Los Angeles, California

    @PayPal i can’t access my account, the phone number for 1 time password is not valid anymore. Please DM me and help so I can update my account. All your support requires a login, I cannot do that.

    @AskPayPal your site is letting people gamble with money they don't have in their accounts. This issue needs urgent attention. If you could look into this issue. @carolynharris24 @mgaskell12

    @holwbu @AidEvans95 Try and contact PayPal I know they have a way to dispute transactions considering they knew there would be issues Ryanair have 25 million refund claims and said it could take up to 6 months which is unacceptable
