    RANT Why must PayPal hate new accounts. I just created a business account confirm if my account is good, costumer support said yes. Proceeds to hammer me with money stuck there for days. Doesn't even tell you what's the main problem. Man this sht sucks.

    @PeterDiamandis Very few people know that Elon had funded SpaceX largely with his own money from the PayPal sale. He invested about 100 million dollars of personal fortune into the company. After three Falcon 1 failures cash was nearly gone. The team assembled one last rocket from leftover parts. That fourth flight on September 28, 2008 had to succeed or SpaceX would have shut down.

    I was invited to a server on Discord that I knew absolutely nothing about. The server is called 'Eboost', and it sells things like Discord Nitro, skins and in-game items. I’ve already purchased a one-year subscription to Discord Nitro, and as all payments are made via PayPal, it’s a server I have no use for. However, one day, the Eboost server was suddenly reported to Discord on suspicion of ‘fraud’, and my account was temporarily suspended simply because I had inadvertently joined that server. How am I to be compensated for the damage caused—such as the suspension and the flags attached to my account—by the server owner’s negligence on a server where I wasn’t even active? I’ve lodged an appeal, but Discord simply keeps repeating the same 'AI-automated-macro' response. And this isn’t the first time this has happened. Are people really expected to use Discord whilst factoring in the probability that a server owner might cause problems? It’s utterly unfair. 😡😡 @discord @discord_support @DiscordBuild

    @DrewPavlou Perhaps you could set up something simple like a buy me a coffee or paypal me link so people can support you directly. The Flynn issue seems hopeless for now. I hope that can eventually get resolves but seems you need to have a way for people to support you in general:

    @ShoeQueen0318 @ThatsAllAreanna Sadly wokesky isn't doing ****. Been doing the same. We need to hit her where it matters the most, either her linktree or her PayPal/venmo. Won't they shut PayPal down if there's too many charge backs?

  • rykegs
    Ryan Kagels (@rykegs) reported

    @Venmo is the worst, most useless digital wallet It blocks payments, no explanation, useless for non-profits unless linked to a volunteers personal account. Business use - a joke. All you have to do is move money. Why wouldn’t @PayPal shut it down

    Im having some issues so i might have to close the keychain store soon. Shot them an email to see if it's solvable but they basically make me take payments in PayPal but then pay for production with card only so with all the transfer fees and conversion I am losing money lol 😭

    @AskPayPal I’m traveling and I cannot access my account! I’ve been asked to reset my password but the email with the code never reaches. Phone number is not working. Security question get a “there was a problem, try later”. It’s been 48 hours. Help!

    @Realnaz_ @JKeagz enterprise pivot to v3 and epaa membership alongside mastercard and paypal happened 24 days ago. that is real partnership traction and a product direction change toward bigger customers. but price is down 25% over 7 days and 19% over 30 days on 15m mcap. developments are not translating to buying pressure yet.

    @linuxuser1996 Enable protection compatibility. Then temporarily set your password manager to none. Open PayPal. Login. Set your password manager back to the previous value. Close PayPal. Verify that you can open it again

  • Optus
    Optus (@Optus) reported

    @enngees Hi there, customers can recharge their service or purchase add-ons online using a credit/debit card (Visa, MasterCard, Amex, or JCB) and PayPal. An Optus service needs to connect to the Optus network for activation, so we generally recommend setting up and activating the SIM once they've arrived in Australia. If you're still having trouble recharging, please send us a DM, and we'll take a closer look into this for you. -Talia

    Crap, do I HAVE to submit some kind of photo ID to get my new Stripe/Kofi account to work? I said no to that for two whole years and my old Paypal account got shut down last week.

    @DwinTheStoic I have always known Uber to be a terrible seevice, terrible consumer app, terrible company. They are no different from likes of PayPal. Uber is terrible normally and I say this as someone who have patronised them in major countries.

    @Safaricom_Care @SafaricomPLC we need to understand where our money is disappearing to since you don’t want to clarify what the problem is. It has now been over a week and nothing. On @PayPal money was transferred but it is only your app that says it’s pending ffs

    @joeroganhq So Elon created PayPal, SpaceX, Tesla, The Boring Company, purchased Twitter and became the world's first trillionaire... ...only to be called a "really broken person" by a crack fiend. **** is WILD in 2026!

    Hey @PayPal, why do your customer service agents keep dodging me? Three separate agents have abruptly closed our chat today right when I asked them to resolve my issue This is incredibly frustrating. Please DM me so I can actually get some real help #CustomerService #BadService

    jinowns (@Jinowns87) reported

    Here's another neat trick I do every year. If you have paypal, you can break down the entire cost into 4 payments. Meaning you pay 25% percent now while PayPal pays the merchant the entire amount and then you can make payments every 2 weeks. Doooo iiiittttt!!

    @cloverclubcos If it’s not too much trouble!!! I’d really appreciate it if you could help me with this. I can pay for the item and shipping via PayPal, and I also have a forwarding warehouse that can ship it to Taiwan for me, which should be a little cheaper than shipping it directly🥹

    @FatherAltman Hi Father, Paypal throws an error saying your webmaster needs do/fix something. I used CC instead, but normally always use Paypal for online purchases. Looking forward to the book!
