  • HPiAnalytics59 Hendrik Pieterse 🇿🇦 (@HPiAnalytics59) reported

    @zerohedge @The_Real_Fly Too late, PayPal. Now we do not trust you. See, that is how easily trust is broken.

  • BrianSSStone Brian Stone (@BrianSSStone) reported

    @gumroad the Fact that you only offer PayPal as an online payment method is terrible and short sighted and constraining PayPal has to be the worst service looking at the other options

  • DoneBeingAfraid Molly Jayger (@DoneBeingAfraid) reported

    @admiraltee @stillgray I couldn't believe this was real either. Logged into my PayPal account last night, scrolled down to Policy Updates, clicked, and there it was. Exactly as it has been reported here and elsewhere. Today, that updated policy has been completely removed.

  • LeTotinos LeTotinos (Ashton) (@LeTotinos) reported

    "America has a hate crime problem." PayPal: 2500 grand please

  • AndreaB25723155 ARB (@AndreaB25723155) reported

    @michaelpeckerar @Trudeaus_Ego @PayPal “Misinformation” is subjective. That’s a big problem. How about PayPal just does it thing without censorship. We are being taken down a dangerous path.

  • machinekidd MachineKidd (@machinekidd) reported

    @patrickbetdavid Mark my words. From here Paypal can only go down. The downfall of a company.

  • TheSciencePhD The Science (@TheSciencePhD) reported

    @stillgray If you have no open transactions with paypal & they won't let you disassociate your card, call your CC and have them cancel / block everything from paypal, it is fraud at this point. Call you bank and have a block put in place for paypal on that account, it is a fraud issue.

  • price_t_k Price_t_k⭐⭐🇰🇪 (@price_t_k) reported

    @AskPayPal @romanovich0512 That's a state bot. We will not cower down to authoritarianism

  • XRPPRX3 XRPPRX3 (@XRPPRX3) reported

    @disclosetv There was no error just a huge backlash. They have been known to randomly shut peoples accounts off which is why I wouldn't never hold any money in a PayPal account

  • winslow_evan Evan Winslow (@winslow_evan) reported

    @TheFamousArtBR @stillgray No need to make it a legal issue. You can quit PayPal. Quitting the government is a lot harder.

  • 0plix Oplix 🇷🇺 (@0plix) reported

    It doesn't matter that Paypal is backing down at this point. The damage is done. Close your account and forget about Paypal. There are many other alternatives now. #Paypal #paypalisdead

  • NH_Braveheart JR Hoell, '22 Rep Candidate, fmr. Rep '10-'18 (@NH_Braveheart) reported

    In light of all of the @Twitter @elonmusk issues, it is interesting that one of the other companies that Musk co-founded and sold, @PayPal is now in the news for wanting to punish users for independent thinking. Maybe Musk needs to go back and fix the now broken PayPal as well.

  • RikSexton Shiner (@RikSexton) reported

    @PayPal why can't you cancel my account? Just cancel the card and then cancel my account. if you don't want to flush a 20-year-old account down the drain you shouldn't try to flush my First Amendment right and my opinions **** you cancel my account!

  • tinytunaroll 🌿Garden Gremlin🌿 (@tinytunaroll) reported

    @iHazelis Square! Mostly because I've dealt with more issues (withheld money/charge backs ect) with PayPal than I ever have with square.

  • Wonka2018 tired of the double standards (@Wonka2018) reported

    @livinglifehd @JackPosobiec PayPal is claiming it was an error!!!!!

  • SFartypants1 SirWilliamMcFartypants (@SFartypants1) reported

    @kimKBaltimore I think you have no idea what PayPal actually did. If you did you would have no problem with it.

  • Pistolannie31 Pistolannie (@Pistolannie31) reported

    If you intend to shut down your @AskPayPal account, you will also need to shut down your @VenmoSupport account. Yep! Same Commies.

  • QhsNYJ Q (not anon 🤦‍♂️) (@QhsNYJ) reported

    @PayPal you won't allow me to close my account as mysteriously your app goes into an infinite loop of asking me to confirm my identity via text message code after text message code. I'm sure this is simply a glitch on your end. 🙃 ***

  • Rizstanford Riz Virk (@Rizstanford) reported

    @davidmarcus @PayPal Pretty sure this has been happening for awhile. Guess you weren't paying attention when the Canadian truckers had bank accounts frozen, or when big banks and other big banks shut down accounts of people trading crypto or that *little* thing called the Patriot Act?

  • Art_of_Springs Springs (Comms open: 0/5) (@Art_of_Springs) reported

    So the whole paypal policy thing making the rounds online is...incorrect? It somehow went out in "error" Huh...

  • UmmAneesa A so-called liberal😷👍 (@UmmAneesa) reported

    @davidmarcus @PayPal They have already backtracked and said the message went out "in error" and they are still updating their policies.

  • AWonders3 Dutch girl 🇳🇱 (@AWonders3) reported

    @PeterSweden7 Thanks @PayPal for reminding us how terrible digital currency would be.

  • MyOyigbo_ MyOyigbo_ (@MyOyigbo_) reported

    @DreamMan_NG @FinPlanKaluAja1 @PayPal Lmaaoo.. tell me again how a policy gets pushed out on error? They don’t know how to spin this one

  • SausageTrump TrumpSausage (@SausageTrump) reported

    @durdyessobee @davidmarcus @PayPal It was an error. They ****** up and made a mistake by trying to **** over customers

  • mr3eyd roborobo (@mr3eyd) reported

    @TimKennedyMMA Truth is PayPal has too many rights and direct access to your bank account where they can royally f*ck you! He may be spreading misinformation but he is right about one thing, close your PayPal. Do it now! I filed against them with BBB, state of CA and so on, shut them down!

  • DurseyJack Name cannot be blank (@DurseyJack) reported

    @redshoe9 @PeterSweden7 And we are all choosing not to do business @PayPal with a company that steals peoples money. So what is your problem?

  • MamaDeCheverito Gloria Loves Life 🇺🇸🇻🇪 (@MamaDeCheverito) reported

    @GoneStolenAgain @JustSomeLady_ @JackPosobiec He claimed that long ago. Way before the bank accounts issue. And I don’t need to prove anything to you. If you find it ok for PayPal to take $2500 from people claiming misinformation without having to prove it, that’s you. Until it happens to you, let’s see how you like it then
