  @davidsenra Snaps biggest problem is @evanspiegel ideaologies and woke culture. It is really obvious. He honestly needs to be fired to learn. He needs an Elon kicked out of PayPal or jobs kick out of apple or something so he can learn.

  @maxrushden A gasp of 'Oh No' going into the break there. Have the authorities already clamped down on your paypal ruse chaps?!

  @AskPayPal I cannot access my account because the verification code is sent to my old phone number. I don’t have access to it anymore. I also cannot contact support because it requires login. Please help me recover my account.

  @richtosho @esther_irene_ That’s the real issue. With Cash app and PayPal not accessible in Nigeria, people are forced to look for other options to receive international payments this just shows how big the gap still is. That’s why personally I use @Vbanapp , it just makes things a lot easier.

  @its_The_Dr It’s a civil problem though… case in point if I had a disagreement with a neighbor over money like this, for example: I bought something from him and accidentally PayPal him 10 grand instead of a 100 and he refused to return it, if I called the cops they’d tell me that it’s a civil matter and to take him to court so why is this any different?

  @anna_gcrf Yeah there's an interest free thing on PayPal atm so i'll probably get that, the issue is I get disqualified for a lot of things because I can technically stand and get to the bathroom even though I functionally can't do anything else. Which is really frustrating.

  @helenaprestes @AskPayPal @PayPalFrance Helena Prestes’ PayPal is blocked. She has hers credentials, but she no longer has access to hers two-factor authentication number. Please contact her to resolve the issue. Customer service is not responding. Thank you

  Every single day there's a new tweet: "Shopify Payments just disabled my account, $40k stuck" "Stripe froze us at $250k/mo, no warning" "PayPal locked our balance for 180 days, what do I do?" It's nonstop. And it's only getting worse. The honest truth: Shopify isn't the problem. Stripe isn't the problem. Their setup is. → Personal-name LLC → One processor, one bank, one entity → Wrong jurisdiction for their address → Zero backup rails when something flags I put together a free PDF on the exact structure 7- and 8-figure operators use so they NEVER get knocked offline - 9 steps, 2 jurisdictions, multiple processors, zero single points of failure. If you want it: Comment "SETUP" + RT

  @PayPalUK Small business owner here my PayPal was deactivated with no explanation no disputes no refunds everything legit so what’s the issue just be clear instead of hiding behind vague policies

  @ApzApuru That's odd,it says permanent so i really hope you can transfer all the money you have to another PayPal account,this is just terrible and scumbag behavior to pull on someone whos TOS is clearly stated for commissions

  1. Is paypal ever available as a payment option? 2. Can we use maldivian cards without issues (with foreign transaction limits)? 3. has anyone had trouble receiving the otp when signing up? (i’m not getting mine 😭)

  hialex (@hialex_sol) reported 35 minutes ago

  Today a designer in Buenos Aires getting paid by a US client has 3 bad options: • Wire → 3–5 days + $25–50 fees • PayPal → 8%+ taken • Crypto → confusing, needs SOL/ETH for gas, public addresses leak income None of these feel like a normal wallet. We fix that.

  @idcboutusers0 @midnight_b65055 pakistan has huge potential to deliver if the current elitist mindset is broken apart unfortunately thats never happening so might as well flee from this hellhole. india is still passing on some benefit to citizens. I'd kill for amazon, PayPal, good healthcare, products e.t.c

  @ProofOfCash @lightning This is where the problem is. The gigantic gap between what a Dev and a normie think is so simple and easy. Do you agree lightning is almost exclusive used with PayPal clones?

  十べえ (@shimipan) reported 38 minutes ago

  @Ottery_FP I never want to use PayPal again. By what right do they steal other people's assets? The fact that no one from headquarters is responding, and the customer support staff are just trying to brush me off over the phone, is absolutely terrible.🥲🥲

  @H2gofrost @AskPayPal No problem man I went through the same thing.. You can keep trying, I've heard that sometimes it can get lifted. But generally the most they usually do is screw us over and say "It's not a mistake." They don't like to admit they're wrong.

  dude this little arc from me getting hacked is getting so annoying, im considering just wiping myself off the internet. they got into my paypal and tried to buy 120 dollars worth of console gift cards, and it backfired only because i didn't have the money to pay for it i've once again locked down another account and added 2fa, and did it to a couple of others for good measure. im hoping this is the last of it im quite tired.

  I APOLOGIZE TO EVERYONE WHO MADE A PURCHASE AND HAS NOT YET RECEIVED ACCESS TO THE DOWNLOAD. THIS ISSUE IS RELATED TO MY "ITCH IO" ACCOUNT LINKED WITH "PAYPAL", WHICH IS CURRENTLY UNDER A REVIEW PERIOD. I EXPECT EVERYTHING TO BE WORKING PROPERLY BY TOMORROW.

  @TIF_Productions CashApp and Venmo for regions that allow it. Make sure that they are careful on their notes. For those that don't have access to the aforementioned two, Throne. Create a subtle cash gift. I refuse to use PayPal and Zelle for privacy/protection issues.

  @BradWardFight @BERSERKER_THiiS Do you force peeps to use PayPal? That sorted my issues completely. Peeps can’t **** around. At least here

  FDC INC (@fdcincshop) reported 52 minutes ago

  That 8 is the byte size of the response your server sent back to PayPal (likely the word "Verified"). PayPal sees that 200 OK, and it stops trying to send you that specific notification. You’re being a "good citizen" in the PayPal ecosystem!

  Someone should create a micro-blogging app where people can discuss news and trends in brevity. This time limit the text to 150 - 200 letters. This is why we signed up to X. But right now X is Instagram, YouTube plus PayPal. Microblogging is broken. We need a new outlet. Trust me. If it's simple and fun people will leave X to build somewhere new from scratch. We miss Twitter so much.
