Ducky (@insultduck) reported@wil_da_beast630 @FedEx Wil, you are big enough on here to get their attention, I'm, sure. But, I had a similar runaround situation with PayPal not too long ago involving someone fraudulently using my account to issue payouts. When their customer service was useless, I started finding people in their corporate structure on "Linked-In" and emailed them directly. In my case, it finally got the attention of someone in the executive office, who actually resolved the issue in ten minutes. So, if this doesn't get their attention, start privately contacting anyone you can identify at FedEx corporate. Skip the traditional customer service route. You've got to get a hold of an actual decision maker.

Trixie Baker (@TrixieBaker) reportedHey @PayPal is there any way to talk to a contact person from North America who can actually help with an issue that has been complicated and messed up beyond all belief by your company?? This is now becoming absolutely ridiculous - and your India call centre is zero help.

Wayne (@InWayneMode) reported@HieuHere349 I'm sorry I've never had this problem. I just filled out the information and I used paypal as a payout. My personal FB profile also matches my name too. I have heard people outside of the US having similar issues I think. PIB has a whatsapp group that may be useful for you. There is a group called "Facebook admin, payout, account issues". Others who have had similar issues may be able to help

KlutzyDraconequus🔞(Requests: Open) (@KlutyzDragon) reportedIt's weird that Paypal is going down the route of overt censorship when there's already a guideline in place in America to prevent this with a law coming up that will outright ban them from prevent people from buying stuff they want

Hervonia Baker Character Designer looking for work (@hervoniasketch) reportedHi, I hate to do this, but my cat is currently passing away. Because it’s memorial Day weekend, we can’t take him to be put down until Tuesday. Unfortunately, it’s not looking like he will make it by then. I run a small shop and I have a ko-fi. I also have a PayPal. Please share.

adelvafa (@iran0pessimist) reportedPayment processors are going after anything labeled as "art" or "commission", holding things up by like 3+ or more days. Kickstarter tried to crack down on legal NSFW art and revoked it, PayPal is doing it now but caught in the crossfire are literally any artists who label their invoices ANYTHING art-related. To get around this, you have to use "Request payment" and click "Friends & Family", and not goods and services. I'm not sure why this is happening, but I've heard on the rumor mill the usual suspects at OnlyFans and PHub have been pressuring payment processors to go after NSFW artists so they can get more people to join OF and PHub as creators, and in the crossfire, PayPal has gone ultra-mode and is icing anything art-related until they can research your portfolio/business to ensure it is up to par. In the case of fellow game creators, you must ensure your storefront content isn't too violent and doesn't have any suggestive themes, because these are being ham-fistedly categorized as "pornography" and this is what payment processors are looking at.
