    @AskPayPal Hello, I have sent a response. I’m still waiting for a reply. I also spent 50 minutes waiting on the phone yesterday. It is so strange that an organisation that deals with people’s money and accounts makes it so difficult for issues to be resolved

    @PayPal How about hiring customer support reps so you can actually pick up the phone? @paypal use to have great customer support and now it is terrible. And don't blame covid. Hire some people for christ sakes!

  • LuisVSanchez777 Luis V. Sanchez (@LuisVSanchez777) reported

    @ElliotTurn Counter-argument - PayPal a slow-moving ship and Afterpay is nimble and focused. What if Afterpay locks up the market faster than PayPal can give it away for free to merchants?

  • daisydunning Ruth Nicholls (@daisydunning) reported

    @AskPayPal @PayPalUK @PayPal Hi I sent a private message yesterday and I have still had no reply, please can someone contact me regarding a problem logging in. Thank you

    Why is the PayPal site always sooo slow

  • allofyourdemons all of your demons (@allofyourdemons) reported

    @chimpy24 @thetownsman I agree with you re: Paypal. Had success last week going that route after refreshing and repeatedly failing to get CC info in fast enough. Went with PP and finally got one. Cuts down on steps.

  • YourLambo Sol Goodguy ✦ (@YourLambo) reported

    paypal problems band-aided for now. Will see if I can recover my account due to this confusion otherwise I could try out the other opts you guys suggested. For now I think I'll be ok though. Really mad how they just did this draconian measure of nuking first ask questions later

  • steveluminais Steve Luminais (@steveluminais) reported

    @AskPayPal can you please explain why Paypal is re-directing my donations placed directly through the donation page of one organization to a different organization I donated to previously? Redirecting donations is a serious issue.

    @AppenGlobal hey there. I just created an account to start working, but even after confirming my email and paypal info, i'm asked to sign in again just to get the message "email/password combination invalid". Tried changing my password, but it keeps happening. What do I do?

  • DrHotPopsicle Dr. Hot Popsicle (@DrHotPopsicle) reported

    @AskPayPal I can’t login to the web app because it won’t accept my new phone number. I’ve updated on the app but I’m locked out of the website.

    @FloatingKoala I swear to god these paypal scams that they shove down hacked channels piss me off

  • SteveCinq Steven Cinquegrana (@SteveCinq) reported

    @PayPal PayPal, people really, really hate you. If you start listening and fix things, you might not go the way of Yahoo!, which didn't listen and disappeared without a trace.

    ✨ It is my right to decline any request I do not like ✨ Payment done through Paypal, must pay as soon as commission details are finalized. ✨ I am a slow artist ✨ If you have any questions regarding what I will draw and will not draw feel free to ask me! (DM’s are okay!)
