  @fandom_david I am tired of modern life for another reason. Every product needs a PhD just to be able to use it. It is impossible to turn on the TV at a friend's place. On a Tesla, you don't know how to open the glove compartment or turn on the wipers, or blow the air in your face. Netflix keeps telling me that this device - my TV- is not authorized. I have to go through hoops to get it reinstalled. One time I had to call customer support. Fortunately Netflix still has real human beings who are helpful. There is no way to reach a real person on X. I have wasted several thousand dollars to boost my posts but it just ate my money. The XAI that monitors my posts found something wrong with my post, I don't know what. When I sent a DM to Ad services, it never responds. I have sent the complain a dozen times. The XAI reads not only the posts but also the DMs. When XAI doesn't understand a post, it simply ignores it. There is no way on X to reach a real human being. If XAI is cheating me, it is the cost of living with modern AI technology. The ring in my wife's phone becomes almost inaudible. She sets it up to full volume but it keeps coming back to lowest volume. So, she asked me to find out the problem. I haven't been able to solve the problem. I tried to de-install an App, and it would keep on reinstalling it. On PayPal, I cannot turn off notifications of parcels from USPS. In an Airbnb I could not turn on the A/C. It had so many things in the menu. It would keep going back and forth in the menu but not show me the temperature controls. Even powering on and off did not work. In another Airbnb in New Zealand, I could not use the oven because I could not set the temperature. It kept turning off. In a hotel I could not set the time on the alarm clock. The list is limitless. And I am not a computer illeraterate person. You might think I am a dumb person. I am the inventor of Ethernet switch which is widely used in AI data centers, My company I founded turned an investment of $25 million into $10 billion. I have a dozen patents. If I am having so much problem with modern technology, I can imagine how much problem others might be facing.

  @ThompsonJo85119 @weary_centurion And I'm just giving my opinion, pointing out his arrogance. He insults NBIS retail investors for no reason just cause the stock is down (yet still up 80%+ YTD) Meanwhile he's the same guy who bought PayPal before it crashed and kept buying...he's also a "naive retail investor"

  Before I respond to any DM I just want to let my commission clients know my PayPal account just got permanently deactivated for reasons I still don't know. I will try to fix this asap but I will probably not be able to receive payments anytime soon 💔

  $PYPL Conference Call Wrapup: PayPal beat and raised the full year, and the story still has a problem: EPS still fell 1% to $1.38, and next quarter they guide it DOWN double digits. Revenue +5%, but the earnings line is going backward while the guide goes up. Read past the raise.

  @AskPayPal I created an account using an email & mobile number and I forgot the password. Now when I reset the password it's calling my mobile number for verification but calling isn't working. And I don't have any option to change the mobile number or just continue with email for verification. How do I login?

  Hi @AskPayPal , I can't reset my password. After selecting SMS verification, I get "We're having trouble confirming it's you." I still have access to my email and phone. My account is from Indonesia. Please help me recover my account. Thank you.

  @zombaebby I've been using PayPal for years, at first I was just a private user until I was earning more and more than just a small side hassle. (Think like more than €2000pm) and then just swapped to a buisness account. Not had any issues since. I dont know where people have these issues.

  @AskPayPal I received a payment from a buyer, but I noticed a possible issue with the shipping address. The buyer contacted me through Facebook and told me that the item should be shipped to his friend in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. However, the PayPal transaction shows a shipping address

  I'm not gonna lie...there is something that just doesn't seem right. Everyone is out here complaining about PayPal suspending them, banning them, etc. A lot of the time due to poor tax practices or just frustrating customer service... But no one is talking about how many Twitch streamers have lost their paychecks due to Twitch not fixing or updating the community about a hacker bypassing their OWN 2FA to change your payout details with no email (meanwhile when I change it I get an email...) And Twitch won't refund because you agree each time you use Twitch to an AS IS policy that means you are agreeing that you take responsibility and will not hold Twitch liable for failed security measures...because you are agree to their security AS IS...even if this has been happening since January to many creators... Don't worry...Twitch still gets their 50/40/30% no issue 👍🏻

  After PayPal, Elon Musk could have started another internet company. He says it would have been easy. The internet already had plenty of talented founders and plenty of capital. In his view, one more internet company would not make him especially useful. So he moved toward the two problems he thought could have a bigger effect on the world: sustainable energy and space exploration. It is a brutal filter for choosing what to work on. Forget which market looks easiest. Ask where your effort could make a difference that would otherwise be missing.

  📄 $PYPL · EARNINGS HIGHLIGHTS - PayPal Holdings, Inc. PayPal repurchased $1.51B in stock during Q2, shrinking diluted share count by 9.7% YoY to 882M shares. 📊 Rev $8.682B (+4.8%) · GAAP EPS $1.25 · NI $1.104B · Op margin 16.4% 🟢 Beat Estimates · EPS $1.38 vs $1.28 est 🔷 Q2 revenue $8.68B, +4.8% YoY, driven by 10% TPV growth 🔷 Net income $1.104B, down 12% YoY from $1.261B 🔷 Operating margin compressed to 16.4% from 18% a year ago 🔷 Transaction expense surged to $4.39B from $3.97B, up 10.5% YoY 🟡 Market reaction: PYPL closed the regular session at $58.32, up 4.01% on the day. The after-hours session is underway but no extended-hours trade is captured here. The -0.36% move since filing time suggests the market had already priced in the results. 👀 Watch: Q3 FY2026 operating margin trajectory, Q2 margin compressed to 16.4% from 18% a year ago.

  @ScotRail Hi Chloe, thanks for replying quickly. I've came out the app, closed it fully and gone back in and it's now showing Google Pay and PayPal. I realise now it was missing the ticket delivery option too so I think that was the main cause of the problem.

  @Moty_201 @Twitch Yes! They told me they could not refund the payout nor and the only advice they had is contact Paypal if I was having issues with my Paypal account. I told them…you do realize it is NOT my paypal and it was some hacker who got past your 2FA who changed it? Their response was “we are investigating”.

  📄 $PYPL · EARNINGS HIGHLIGHTS - PayPal Holdings, Inc. PayPal raised FY2026 non-GAAP EPS guidance to ~$5.38 from "low-single digit decline to slightly positive" while Q2 non-GAAP EPS fell 1% YoY to $1.38. 📊 Rev $8.7B (+5%) · Adj. EPS $1.38 (-1% (non-GAAP)) · NI $1.1B · Op margin 16.4% (GAAP) 🟢 Beat Estimates · EPS $1.38 vs $1.28 est 🔷 Revenue $8.7B (+5% YoY), TPV $486.4B (+10% YoY) 🔷 Non-GAAP operating margin contracted 248 bps to 17.4% 🔷 GAAP operating income fell 5% to $1.4B; non-GAAP operating income fell 8% 🔷 FY2026 non-GAAP EPS guidance raised to ~$5.38 from prior low-single digit decline to slightly positive 🟡 Market reaction: Extended-hours trading shows PYPL at $55.30, down 1.37% vs the regular close of $56.07. The guidance raise is being overshadowed by margin compression, non-GAAP operating margin fell 248 bps, and the Q3 outlook for low-single digit EPS declines. 👀 Watch: Q3 2026 guidance calls for low-single digit decline in both GAAP and non-GAAP EPS, watch whether transformation costs compress margins further.

  Midge Purce’s early goal was the difference, but Gotham FC’s defense was the story. The Bats shut down Bay FC for a 1-0 victory at PayPal Park, extending their unbeaten run to five matches while recording their league-leading 10th clean sheet of the season.
