-
Aaron (@crazycave) reportedBeen experiencing an issue with my PayPal account regarding the payment method that I'm using
-
J Dawg Esq. (@J_Kane) reported@tunahorse21 Someone successfully got my Paypal account last week. Fortunately I got it shut down before any funds were touched.

Rajith Attapattu (@rajith_a) reported@ashoKumar89 I don't get the kubernetes hate. The decision to use k8s has nothing to do with the number of users, traffic or complexity of your application architecture. YouTube ran fine on VMs, so did PayPal, Google and other planet scale apps. Kubernetes evolve to solve the complexity of managing a pool of VMs and the associated operational overhead and it solves that problem elegantly.

Christina (@forestofcake) reported@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.

Lily White Cracker (@LilyWCracker) reported@Abby_Sariah Call them. But if it’s like PayPal, they just keep telling you to login to your account that you can’t get into. Ugh. Sorry.
-
Ayere Daniel🇳🇬🇬🇭🇰🇪 (@drey_dr7) reported@ruaidhriart PayPal blocked my art commissions too. Fix: Get US bank via Grey/Cleva → Bybit P2P → your local bank. No middleman needed. No 3 week delays. Steps: [check my bio]

惜缘际渊 (@xiyuanjiyuan) reportedDue to my misunderstanding of PayPal policies, I’ve run into some issues and decided to step away from Twitter and close my account. Thank you to everyone who supported me—if you’d like to stay in touch, please contact me via email.
-
karanchauhan.eth (@0xkaranchauhan) reported@sandeepnailwal Can relate! We’re from a village near Bagwan, Uttarakhand — my grandfather faced similar issues. Been sending money to a friend’s wife back home in Peru 🇵🇪 for months now. Her husband was fed up with hefty fees on PayPal etc. On-chain is way cheaper and faster.

Grok (@grok) reported@noob_contrarian Hey, for your SBI virtual Visa card: It works on GPay/Stripe but fails on PayPal/Namecheap likely due to SBI's restrictions on debit/virtual cards for those platforms (common RBI/PayPal mismatch on OTP/3D Secure). Quick fixes: - Double-check intl transactions enabled in YONO app. - Contact SBI support (1800-11-2211 or YONO chat) to whitelist PayPal/Namecheap. - For Namecheap: Try adding card again in incognito, or preload account balance via UPI/Stripe. - PayPal: Most SBI debits don't work—use a credit card or linked bank acct instead. If still stuck, reply with exact error msg.

StreamVOD (@stream_vod1) reported@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.

Sean Gonzalez (@SeanGon08951848) reported@LynneBP_294 I never had any real bad issues with PayPal and been using them for over 20yrs.
-
DirtandDissent (@hwoodhmstd) reported@PayPal are you trying to make it so hard for ppp to pay their bills online therefore we rack up late fees? Whats up with your terrible web design that seems to be intentionally obscuring the bill pay mechanism? Which even after calling yall, I have not located.
-
Cristina Gennari (@Cri426) reported@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
-
FDC INC (@fdcincshop) reportedThat 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!
-
David Solheim (@davidtsolheim) reported@Austen I feel like we are at the stage before people trusted paypal where "there's no way i'd trust the internet with my bank account information". Slow and steady, then all at once.

Quantumaniacal (@oxcvyqwsdfgytx) reportedMy PayPal banned. The account that I depend on promoting and sell my art got deactivated. My account have such low impression, maybe because my art sucks. I have 5 unfinished major works. And I have a major problem with my family relation. I'm going to kill myself.
-
✨️🧚♀️✨️ (@ARandomPixie) reported@rebirthspiritXL I was having trouble with PayPal too, for some reason. I'm kinda worried about the address bc I was placing my order at the same time I was giving someone some legal advice and I wasn't paying attention to the page 😭
-
m. (@zL19uMsnpSU) reportedReal issue though I see is there are many freelancers/companies (incl. me) selling digital products in global market. However, we're forced to use third party gateways and losing potential customers because our policy isn't ready for Stripe, Paypal, Google merchant account etc.
-
Layal 🌙🖤 (@layalafterdark) reported@santhemu_ @iamjoseh_ I have this, but the problem is that it's not linked to paypal withdrawals, the other one ndio iko na hiyo feature. I don't understand how they separate these things.
-
root1 (@Jones_308) reported@amazon why have I had to return packages marked deceased receiver if I’ve called you and said shut it down 🤬🤬🤬you and @Verizon and @PayPal are predatory scumbags I will never do business with EVER !!!! I’m old school I don’t need your crap
-
Tyrsenus (@Tyrsenus) reported@ShadirHS @Maalcrom @Wowhead But like I said, Blizzard can impede them in other ways. They may have already sent a C&D to Paypal, explaining why the donation page is down.
-
Hugofrost (@H2gofrost) reportedI'm really sorry to say this but i need a time to chill My paypal just got perma banned, I can acccess all of donations I've recieved from viewers and some other irl issues are still ongoing and I have army reverse training for 4 days next week. I'm feeling very emotional now and maybe i will talk about this on video soon but at this point I don't think I can keep doing streaming as a full time if I make 0 on twitch from it
-
Laille (@lailleorm) reported@xHeraKita @AskPayPal Why would anyone use your service if you lock accounts without any legitimate reason? Fix your ****.
-
StreamVOD (@stream_vod1) reported@Abusadeeq1968 @john322226 Honestly, this just explains why the same issues keep repeating, freelancers are the ones always stuck in the middle of all these restrictions and policies. At this point it’s really about adapting. I just use Vban on my end to avoid all this paypal stress.

bad robot (@foxenflask) reported@papi_kubosh He has been involved with PayPal indirectly since eBay acquired it in 2002, and directly as a PayPal board member from the 2015 spin‑off until he stepped down in 2017
