  • JustAnthrArtist JustAnotherArtist (@JustAnthrArtist) reported

    @Funimation It's not working for me, it says can't be used if using Paypal, but I was using credit card at checkout.

  • Larenlondon LaRen👑 (@Larenlondon) reported

    @liyaahluv Well atleast not to my knowledge. Anytime I want to transfer from PayPal to my CIBC account I could never do it through the app. I always sign in from a browser or use my laptop

  • AlidoBitLazy sarcasmrox3 (@AlidoBitLazy) reported

    @retired_hagg @PayPal I get it. And I every situation is different but I have had money crunches and paypal issues and **** of that kind. It ******* sucks. BUT this speed bump shouldn't make you do anything irrational. You'll get through it. More often than not, lean logically over emotionally.

  • sidpixstudio ( ꈍᴗꈍ) (@sidpixstudio) reported

    @shell_beloved idk what your specific case is about, but I had problems with paypal and they weren't helping so I filed a BBB complaint and they fixed it ✨

  • NjalTjorkilsson Jeff Preston (@NjalTjorkilsson) reported

    @tfbretz I'm terrible at the invoicing and following up on it part of freelancing. I can't tell you how many times I get payment wayyyy later via paypal. It's like Christmas, or getting a package from wish.

    @iB_glacierhoppi Feel free to update your default payout method to a bank account, PayPal, or a Venmo account to avoid paying any fees down the line.

  • coffeeanybody captain chaos (@coffeeanybody) reported

    @Johncurtis1889 @networldsports @AskPayPal Terrible. Don’t know why companies have to be like this. I ordered two pairs of Dumbbells. Got one pair I ordered but sent me a pair which isn’t the ones I ordered. Having a nightmare getting somebody to actually reply to my email. Will not be buying off them again.

  • iam_PatoK Pato Kelesitse (@iam_PatoK) reported

    @AskPayPal is your website down?

  • JasonLMPhoto Jason Morgan (@JasonLMPhoto) reported

    @AskPayPal I saw. Didn't really explain why there are dozens of active automatic transactions in my payments page for things like when I used my PayPal to buy a single game from EA. Kinda freaky how exposed I apparently could be to an error on their end recharging me, eh?

  • JaeDee_CDN JaeDee (@JaeDee_CDN) reported

    @PrairieCelt @DianeMariePosts I pay mine with PayPal, never had a problem with that

  • strinzy Strinzy (@strinzy) reported

    @PayPal I have been unable to make payment to @Vappingo for the past one hour. I have done it many times in the past but it’s suddenly not working for me. Can you please tell me what’s the issue?

  • AMCF_22 Anastasia (@AMCF_22) reported

    This piece of **** company I ordered from has taken 6 months of chasing to sort my order, only at the end of the PayPal dispute have they decided to actually refund me… But after them taking 9 weeks to ship the BROKEN item to me, I have 7 days to get it back to the US at my cost

  • SnakeBlk Don Drako (@SnakeBlk) reported

    **** PayPal for holding my money because ONE customer had an issue. That’s dumb af

  • BluntlyBarbie BlahbieTheBlahbarian (@BluntlyBarbie) reported

    my last +Walmart subscription monthly payment was denied due to nsf I'm trying to fix it & pay it & make an order but it's saying I can't pay with Chime/PayPal/CashApp anymore anyone else too poor to shop at Walmart online? #Walmart #TooPoor

  • HamzaRa80177653 Hamza Raja (@HamzaRa80177653) reported

    @BuildingWaves @DominicZijlstra @shl I hope you're not implying this as a failure on Gumroad's part. That would be like blaming PayPal for the number of unsuccessful sellers. The problem with easily accessible platforms like Gumroad is a lot of clueless beginners looking for quick bucks join them. Obv most fail.

  • anabelseries94 anabel (@anabelseries94) reported

    @DreamitCon omg! please if it's Luke can buy via paypal? my credit card is down 😭

  • chrystlejoy chrystlejoy (@chrystlejoy) reported

    @PayPal i’m having problems with pay in 4 and the seller never received my payment.

  • RPartytime Partytime⁷: GET IT LET IT ROLL🧈 (@RPartytime) reported

    @EAHelp, one of your advisors said that I had a duplicate charge on Paypal (one pending) due to an issue on the server and the advisor I spoke to today was incredibly rude and dismissive. I'm not satisfied with his response and want to fully get to the bottom of this.

  • MaShalaKian Lovely & Beautiful Sunflower (@MaShalaKian) reported

    C - $kianmasha V - kianmasha PayPal is not working in my favor right now. Please help if you’re able!

  • realPaulSantos Paul Santos (@realPaulSantos) reported

    @ItsCaptainModz @coinbase @CoinbaseSupport Browsing through the Coinbase subreddit, there appears to be a lot of people trying PayPal withdrawals that share the same issue.

    Title: PayPal Shuts Down Long-Time Tor Supporter with No Recourse 💬: Paypal seems to have been working hard to prevent abuse of TOR users.

  • capital_frozen Frozen Orange Juice Capital (@capital_frozen) reported

    @TravisTParker @ObsoleteDogma Or you could just send it through your bank or paypal, come on stop inventing problems that are not there. Nobody in Serbia needs this and nobody besides people invested in crypto is asking for it.

  • Mason134211f Heather Mason (@Mason134211f) reported

    GoFundMe took down my fundraiser. I will be putting up another one. You can also use Paypal or Etransfer if you want. Thank you to everyone who donated. A few of you will be getting your money back. Luckily I withdrew the money already, knowing this would happen.

  • Crypto_B3asT 💥 Mike Hanley 💥 (@Crypto_B3asT) reported

    Sold BTC on coinbase at the weekend to be sent to my PayPal. Turns out the PayPal service was down, but there was no notification on the website. They emailed me saying they cancelled the transaction - but where is my dam money???? @coinbase @CoinbaseSupport

  • SaberaMesia Sabera (@SaberaMesia) reported

    @x_christine @LilySimpson1312 PayPal demanded multiple documents from me in excess of what was required to change my name legally, and then refused to accept those documents when I submitted them, adding additional required documents. It's not very helpful to interject "I had no problems"

  • fagget47 Sugar_fagget47 (@fagget47) reported

    @069katr Slow drain via PayPal Miss Miss?
