    @Yumizu yeah I've had so many issues with PayPal this year and the service is so bad. I really wish there was another alternative to paypal but most of it aren't available in my region yet 😭😭 most sites use PayPal for payments as well, like kofi so it's hard to find an alternative

  • IridiumCs Iridium CS (@IridiumCs) reported

    Looking at a growing business and helping them with E-commerce issues. We don't think it's acceptable that @PayPal say "it can take up to 15 days to respond to a payment-related query, and up to 8 weeks ... for other complaints" What do they suppose businesses do in the meantime?

    Anyone else having a problem with the @EventbriteGB ticket purchase for @BsidesLivrpool failing to redirect form their cart to paypal ?

    @PayPal I used to use PayPal for personal transfer,but it is not possible now… I asked Japanese PayPal customer support and they cannot resolve that problem. Do you have any solutions?

  • vijaypraveen15 vijaypraveen15 (@vijaypraveen15) reported

    @AskPayPal If you can't support our enquiry over the phone then why do you have a helpline number? I've been trying to reach a person to explain my problem for the past week and couldn't get a single person online. What kind of pathetic customer care you have? Y'all even work?

  • ManishS32529735 Manish SHARMA (@ManishS32529735) reported

    @AskPayPal worst service I have ever got I never expected this from PayPal I have a small issue on my withdrawal & I am suffering since last 20 days this is really disappointing.

  • NICK4WA Nicolaus Sleister for U.S. Senate (D) (@NICK4WA) reported

    We have become aware of an issue using PayPal to donate and we have notified ActBlue. We will update you as soon as this is fixed. Using a credit or debit card is still an option to donate online. Thank you all for your support and dedication to fighting for equity!

    @walmarthelp @Kanekishand "Hello kenny we won't help you with your current problem but if you use our sh1tty walmart paypal rip off you can easily shop at our multi million dollar store"

  • Yumizu Yumizu 🌙 Vtuber (TBA) (@Yumizu) reported

    @kinomiiqu I read up your issue and for that exact same reason (and many more) I hate PayPal and I want to cancel it so badly. Sadly it’s probably the most common and popular paying method… I hope someone will invent an alternative soon. I’m sorry for you, don’t give up please!!!

  • 4armedCheese Vaskura Frostblood (@4armedCheese) reported

    Listen, I normally don't do this, but me and my family are stuck living in our car. The 4 of us barely have any money for food or gas or even a hotel room so we can shower. Any and all donations will help and would mean a lot. I'll leave a link to my PayPal account down below.
