  @PayPal I've been trying to get money off of your site and into my bank for like 6+ months and have run into issue after issue. I keep getting told "oh just try again" and things get pushed down the line for another week.

  @OldGloryBank @johnrich Is there any sort of service you guys have or can create to help her. She's always used PayPal in the past, however I suspect like everything else now days her problem is being caused by an AI.

  @dedes016 @ZakariaMDv3 @KKaaRRii2 They used to send me a PayPal invoice but they won’t do anymore. Last time I had to join PayPal’s XOOM app and it lets you wire funds directly to their bank in India $$. It sounds complicated but not really. The sellers are super polite and can text in English no problem.

  It’s the same default setup most people use for email, banking, PayPal, cloud accounts, and recovery codes. Phone number equals “prove it’s you.” That’s the problem.

  Uhh, so I have a problem…I tried to set up a PayPal account for Ko-Fi, but PayPal immediately flagged my account with suspicious activity as soon as I made it. I don't have an ID. What ******** do I do???

  I find the Elon hate so funny. People can’t compliment his work without the disclaimer “I don’t like him BUT…” Relax. The guy made $180M from PayPal and put THE WHOLE thing back into building the next thing. He made all of Tesla’s electric vehicle patents public allowing for competition. And his SpaceX IPO has made 4,400 employees millionaires who otherwise wouldn’t be. So if you’re angry about him becoming the world’s first trillionaire because ‘nobody should be that rich’ or you don’t like his opinions… Remember he’s probably working harder than most of us today not relaxing on a yacht somewhere. And if everyone shared the same opinions the world would be seriously dull. Let’s take the lessons and learn from his success instead of putting him down to make ourselves look good. You can learn from him without liking him or agreeing with him. I think it’s probably smart to do so.

  The Arcane Verse⚕️ (@Telephantix) reported 19 minutes ago

  @FTC I am following up on an official complaint I filed with your office a few years ago. I continue to experience issues with several companies that appear to block or withhold funds through their policies or technology. These companies include Gmail, Cash App, PayPal, and X (formerly Twitter). Cash App is embedded within the X platform, yet after years they still claim I never received funds that should have reached me. I strongly suspect fabricated transaction numbers or records, which I believe constitutes fraud. These actions have resulted in the loss of life-changing sums of money due to what appears to be poor policy enforcement and/or malfeasance. I respectfully request that the FTC investigate these companies for unfair and deceptive practices. Please advise on the status of my prior complaint and what additional documentation or steps are needed to move forward. Thank you for your assistance. Joshua Lowden @Telephantix

  @juanfranciscosq @MarcoFoster_ @KyleKulinski So you're basically saying exactly what I said at the start. Once a company grows to $1B, the owner should be forced to sell it to someone else. Once Elon sold Paypal, he has to stop working. Not allowed to invent anything for the rest of his life. Once Bill Gates invented Windows 95, he has to sell Microsoft and has to stop working too. Once Steve Jobs built the Apple 3, he can't invent anymore and needs to sell. Most people don't have a billion dollars to buy their companies, so they'll need to be split. 100 people buy it for $10M each. And all the way down it goes until the companies all the dumbest people in society own 0.001% each. So what happens then? These people are supposed to invent the iPhone? lol

  My biggest problem wasn't analytics. It was integration. Stripe still isn't available in my country, unfortunately. Most of my businesses run on WordPress with local payment gateways, PayPal, WooCommerce, FluentCart, and Easy Digital Downloads. The analytics tools I used weren't built around that setup.

  @TutaPrivacy Wise for international transfers, Revolut for everyday use. But the PayPal breach is a good reminder that the payment layer isn't the only thing worth auditing- most people lock down their payments before they think about what their calendar or contacts are leaking.

  @Drebae_ Who’s this “we”? Some dude works his *** off, gives the world self driving carts, rockets, internet, PayPal, and more. Your cart full of steaks and **** I pay for when I can’t pay my own ******* bills is the problem.

  @Sudsanity Are you the official gripe admin of the FIFA WC? Do we need to apply for permission slips for getting annoyed? I have hydration break irritation issues I would like to express. Do you accept zelle or paypal?

  @ZandoraVT It’s kinda not really their fault tho, it’s Paypal.. if the artist used vgen payment and faced this issue which it wouldn’t even happen bcz they can’t chargeback on a bank transfer or request refund without artist approval or vgen involvement I would definitely fault them

  @GretchenPSmith @PayPal I can't Imagine how or why here, and what happens to the funds? Can you at least retrieve them? I know, not the point but, screw them, if they can't fix the issue transfer to another platform. You have my prayers in this

  None of These Candidates (@noneofthesecand) reported 1 hour ago

  @libsoftiktok @PayPal They're garbage. I have a few bucks sitting there that can't be moved unless I give them time of KYC. I told them ***. This is why people need NON-CUSTODIAL crypto and wallets. CakeWallet and Monero fix this. BTC has claims but it's a fully traceable NFT.

  I apologize, but my PayPal account is experiencing unexpected issues. Therefore, I am currently only accepting payments via Wise. 🥹
