  • kimmixdd 🌸 Kimmi 🌸 (@kimmixdd) reported

    I'm sick of paypal's bs, first completely suspended my account, THEN this issue arises. Seriously their help support is so incredibly disappointing. And we have to bow down to them & have no say whatsoever in ANYTHING at all.

  • SugaarCone S.C. (@SugaarCone) reported

    @paywithmoon Can you please fix the issue with paypal? Card is declining whenever I try to add it with paypal.

  • xwatergaming 🌊xwater (@xwatergaming) reported

    Hey @AskPayPal - I am trying to get a hold of the support line and have been consistently hung up on. I have no way of getting in contact with anyone regarding my issue - any insight?

  • MerryCrims vay (@MerryCrims) reported

    @AskPayPal Hey paypal, I tried transfering money earlier to the linked bank and it said "there's a problem with your account", but then every other time after that there was no warning and it transferred fine. Is this something I need to worry about?

  • bulls_tech BullsTech (@bulls_tech) reported

    @AskPayPal looks like you don't respond to messages sent directly through accounts. Last message I sent was never responded - and it EXPIRED. And for 2nd one, its been 2 days already. Terrible experience @PayPal #PaypalSucks

  • TalathieI Talathiel (@TalathieI) reported

    @JackaryDraws @GameStop Yeah, based on what I found looking around, some people who used external payments (like Paypal and Apple Pay) had their payment not go through on Gamestop's end, and as such they didn't get shipped out on time and are now stuck with this issue.

    YagherFitness: @resergent @PayPal @coinbase I got the same thing to my PayPal when I closed down my Coinbase account.

    Well comment here bc my DMs are weird, PayPal had issues refunded your money @timfrick

  • KyleOrkmansen Big and Precious Carl (@KyleOrkmansen) reported

    Spent 2 hours setting up a watchlist, "if Paypal goes through tomorrow and the account is frozen, how am I notified" and 20 minutes later still waiting. Not agent's fault it's just a terrible policy that clearly is made to benefit the institution 100% and me not at all

  • DashutoTheRaven Dashuto The Raven (@DashutoTheRaven) reported

    @spofiee I am unfortunately undergoing a similar issue right now. Paid them in August, and have had maybe 3 of 4 responses since then from them in total, then nothing... Waiting to see what PayPal says currently... Wish you the best on yours!

    Remember I had an issue with paypal where they took cash from me and held it without giving me a reason? well, today I got a surprise refund from them, surprise surprise, they didn't even return the full amount but I don't care anymore honestly, not using their service ever again

  • arcturian1111 Lubna Kamal Suboh (@arcturian1111) reported

    @paypal resolved my issues within ONE DAY. at first they said it would take 45 days; I said whatever they needed. Then they said, but since you’ve been such a valued customer with us, we are going to rush this and rush the companies so it will be taken care of within 10 business

  • emilyrosemcg Rose | 🌹🐰| ⛩🅱️NGL (@emilyrosemcg) reported

    @camolNFT @imswaciey It’s b/c anyone can send you an invoice via PayPal. It’s not the EMAIL that was the scam, it was the invoice itself. I can log into PP and send you an invoice for $10,000 right now and put down a phone number for you to call, etc. and it’d be a total scam. Glad you stayed safe!

  • LightNGames1 Light N Games (Korean Indie Board Games) (@LightNGames1) reported

    @dnlnwmn I still have an old PayPal account with a few cents in it due to this kind of issue. They can send something to the address associated with the account, but I haven't had that address in years.
