    @AskPayPal Hello. I do not receive the SMS to sign into my account. It worked fine yesterday. Is there an issue on your side?

  • rizzn @rizzn@blockriot.com (@rizzn) reported

    So, PayPal errors out when I try to log in, so I go to support, and try to call them. The link on the "call us" page forces a log in, which I can't do. I click on the "reset password," and PayPal errors out. Literally clown shoes - how does this company still exist?

  • TheCrypticWolf1 🐺 TheCrypticWolf 🐺 (@TheCrypticWolf1) reported

    So I warn all of you, that if you're using a VPN @PayPal can just shut down your account for using one while logged into your account. Completely disappointed by the action of PayPal that has been taken against me.

  • GwentLevels Friends of the Gwent Levels (@GwentLevels) reported

    @CelticWildflow1 This looks great - but there seems to be a glitch on the paypal page that means you can't order more than one!

  • XONAwines XONA (@XONAwines) reported

    @Nuh_One Unfortunately, Our PayPal has been giving issues accepting local payments, we are currently working on an alternative. In the mean you can take the regular check out Option that allows you to pay with CASH on pickup or delivery.

  • Blzdnblonde Whatev △⃒⃘ 👽💜 (@Blzdnblonde) reported

    @AskPayPal I reached out via Twitter after telephoning and messages to the message center. I got kicked out of the message center multiple times and was told to “wait 24 hours and try again”. I have since resolved the issue myself by having the payee cancel their transaction and pay me a

    @gabsmashh "My paypal is gabsmashh. $5000. Once cleared, I'll provide my expert consultation on your issue."

  • mind_over_madi madi ❣️ (@mind_over_madi) reported

    @_Knabb_ @hungryroot Honestly you have to be a little rude after a while. PayPal gave me a huge run around after I was hacked and it took a little rudeness to have it suddenly resolved after they told me they couldn’t fix it. I hate being mean but nice wasn’t getting me anywhere.

  • Exclusive_Efect Exclusive Effect (@Exclusive_Efect) reported

    @1872blue @JohnnyB47967125 Hi Nige, we’ve taken the maximum amount of family and friends payments for the month, and would have to pay the PayPal fees. Unfortunately for the short term we’re only accepting bank transfer. If it’s a real problem for you I can offer my personal PayPal account if it helps?

  • itsyusei_ CG | Yusei //#BLACKLIVESMATTER (@itsyusei_) reported

    Then there’s the lack questioning the ages of Nairo and how he didn’t question Ally age (as in how old they are). There’s just.....something odd and it’s also weird people just attacked more about the PayPal and his past instead of the serious issue which is adults with minors.

    @AskPayPal are you down? I can't get into my Paypal account to send invoices.

  • yrchrisboy CM (@yrchrisboy) reported

    @Jack09450025 @AskPayPal Thanks I’ll check into this. I might have to go that route honestly. It’s not a password issue it’s the fact it will not log in whatsoever without a confirmation text being sent to my old phone number which is no longer active. Maybe they can hijack the number & intercept the txt

  • mirroredmoodz Meredith #SΣT (@mirroredmoodz) reported

    If you get a message saying “Payment Cancelled” but you still get charged to PayPal it’s okay! It’s some weird error and glitch. I’ve been reading up on some forms and the order is still there. Mwave immediately cancels all unpaid orders after an hour anyways
