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.

J. Penrose-Drain (@WynDuffy) reported@janninereid1 if i refuse to pay taxes for even one tax year, or if I refuse to report income over $600 on paypal, then all hell rains down on me, but a 3d world peasant with nine kids can invade and eat the taxes that the regime has stolen from me. No, I don't care about his sad story.

Maisie ✨🐉 (@maisiemomo_) reportedArtist out there that use Paypal. Do you use a personal or business account?? I am having a never ending problem with paypal and just want some insight on what others use and do.

Shae🍪 (@UbaeShae) reported@JuriJin_vt @Vixsial The other crazy thing I remember was him needing to use multiple PayPal accounts cause he would have “issues”. He even used his cousin’s account and apparently she wasn’t aware of what it was for. Then she was scared cause she was getting threats on his behalf, so the admin

Ben II #JoinAkyatbahayYouth (@BenAndBensali) reported@AskPayPal @PayPal I have been a compliant PayPal user since 2020 and today you have decided to permanently ban my account (reference number PP-L-774851620444) after I sent some documents to confirm a transaction. I need the funds ASAP and this error is costing me

SGT SHTF (@Sucio03110331) reported@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?

crack syringe (@alantwts) reportedI hate @PayPal with everything I have in me, what a terrible company
-
Andregynous | Moved (@CoffiHedgeheg) reported@shu_bing2464 @zuanshihuaduo1 I can't because I never received one. I used the option where it said pay with paypal and it didn't require me to sign in or register with an email.

Neha (@Neha00227734) reported@PayPal Need Urgent Support I'm facing problem in logging in my account. Every time I try to login, it gives me Error 1015: You are being rate limited. I'm unable to raise customer support ticket as well since I'm not able to login. Can you please help to resolve this?

Ayere Daniel🇳🇬🇬🇭🇰🇪 (@drey_dr7) reported@20DollarChicken @Maryine_34 Begging for YOUR own money is crazy 😭 PayPal did same to me. Fix: Tell clients "bank transfer only" now. Cash out via Bybit P2P → instant. No begging. Never again: [check my pinned]

Miss Sweet (@MissSweetDallas) reported@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.

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

Xurran - Dragon of the Forgotten Vault (@Xurran) reportedLuxray(by a single artist mind you!), Arcanine with various standing issues upon closer inspection, and the "legendary discount" Absol that once existed. So I don't know what to say other than I am still fighting this, even if PayPal has passed it off as logically accurate or-

Abdul wasay (@Abdulwasay0090) reported@PayPal 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

CHANELLE GLOBAL BACKUP (@GLOBALCHANELLE) reportedWe are still trying to fix the issue of the PayPal, however our Ko-Fi should still be accessible. If you cannot access neither to Ko-Fi nor the PayPal, we are making note of everyone who has DMed or emailed us!
-
RickxLoveLia 💞 (@RickxLiaChoi) reported@Rach_Spongebob Used USD, I always use Paypal pay in 4 as it causes less issues since paypal pays it themselves even if the card wouldn't go through due to international. Last time I couldn't get the Midzy 4th as it didn't have an option like it.

Ndidi Isiah (@didiisiah) reported@UBACares please I need your assistance. Each time I trying paying with my UBA debit card, it declines. Now, I’m trying to link my card to PayPal account but it’s declining as well. What could be the issue?
-
Marwane (@MarwaneResub) reported@AnthonyEclipse Exactly. And the chargeback problem goes deeper than just the supplier. Most stores hitting that wall are still processing everything through Stripe or PayPal — one flag and your getting shutdown.

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.
-
villin 🇨🇦 (@villined) reported@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.
-
Ayere Daniel🇳🇬🇬🇭🇰🇪 (@drey_dr7) reported@Amentis1 @TrageKeinBh Exactly. Online banking + Bybit P2P = you keep 100%. PayPal + Africa = you lose 8-10%. Broke it down here:

Rob Fo (@RobFo1) reportedOkay, didn't know it was such an issue for some folks. Typically all my subs are through Apple pay or Paypal. If not possible I don't bother. Easy to cancel.

Leo (@neurolauncher) reported@maxkarpis Will do Max! Actually there's a really interesting dynamic in the Turkish market right now. For starters global payment systems like PayPal are banned here due to local data regulations. But here the crazy part even though Turkish banks are super modern and issue standard Visa and Mastercards locals still can't use Apple Pay. It’s mostly because of strict data localization laws by the local authorities and local banks not wanting to share commission fees with Apple. So instead of a simple NFC tap Turkish users are forced to unlock their phones, open a specific bank app and scan a QR code just to make a mobile payment. The irony is that as a foreigner I can easily use my overseas Revolut card with Apple Pay everywhere in Istanbul without any issues while my local friends are stuck scanning QR. If revolut can offer a smoother NFC experience or somehow navigate the Apple Pay hurdle tech savvy users will flock to them instantly. With the Lira's volatility giving locals a seamless way to hold exchange, and spend in multiple currencies without massive bank spreads is highly demanded. Actually @getmidas has also stocks and etc but they dont have banking systems. It is just for investors super app The important thing is ending money abroad from a Turkish bank account usually involves high SWIFT fees and terrible UX. Revolut's frictionless P2P and international transfers would solve a huge pain point. I'll definitely keep an eye out and share any updates!
