    @spoonkid3 I don’t use Twitter so I’m not sure if there’s a better place to put this lmao. But if you’re still having trouble setting up your minecraft realm, you can try using a PayPal or a credit card because for some reason those deal with charges from Sweden better

    @MikeWel61647760 @PayPal Oh yes I know about these scammers. But this is a legit problem and when my friend logs into their account they cannot send or receive funds. Seems to be a common enough situation which is terrible for people that rely on it for business etc

  • geelaw95 Gee Law (@geelaw95) reported

    Nike or PayPal or both write terrible code for their check-out procedure. It’s more likely to be PayPal, because a similar issue appeared earlier when I renewed my domain at NameSilo, which was worked around using a different method available for NameSilo (unavailable for Nike).
