  • dildomoblin ***** Dilettante (@dildomoblin) reported

    @xXLeondraXx Wow that's a LOT of bullshit, paypal. Like What is The Point if you can lose both the money and the product??? How do they fix that if it happens? Whoopsies too bad?

  • swestkie76 lesco bran done (@swestkie76) reported

    @BigotedVsBigots @ToxicPunisher72 @joncoopertweets Exactly. Your saying he’s under reporting income and that’s what all these new irs agents are for to crack down on income over $609 not reported thru PayPal, Venmo, Zelle, etc.

  • jackieoconnel19 jackieoconnell1mail.com (@jackieoconnel19) reported from Ballynapierce Bridge, Leinster

    Paypal unsecured payments: Purchased bag from Chinese website. Seller insisted I put “family” as narrative. Paypal refuse to authorise refund as they say it presents as a personal payment. Anyone else have an issue with above? The suppliers have found a way to scam PayPal users

  • AerlyaGraphics Aerlya Graphics 🌿🎨 (@AerlyaGraphics) reported

    @LilyPi2 If they're no longer active on social media, you can issue a chargeback or try a dispute on PayPal if that's how you paid. Chargeback may not be accepted though because it's been a while :( Otherwise maybe try to reach out on different platforms!

  • Camivette Partially Muscled Skeleton (@Camivette) reported

    @dandock From then on, ebay becomes your best friend as you try to track down merch because the only thing available are hideous dolls and t shirts at Suncoast. You have to mail a money order to a stranger on ebay and hope they don't scam you because PayPal doesn't exist.

  • patmeenan Patrick Meenan (@patmeenan) reported

    @ericlaw @AskPayPal Problem is that they allow anyone to send arbitrary "money requests" to anybody else with no way to disable the feature. Closed my account over it as that's the only way to be sure you don't one-click get scammed. Just crazy for a financial service with access to your accounts.

  • thejgoldstein Jeremy Goldstein (@thejgoldstein) reported

    @AskPayPal @Paypal I've sent you a DM and you're not doing anything to resolve the issue. I've offered to call your corporate office to resolve the issue and you won't even provide the phone number. I can't believe I have to have my customer dispute a charge.

  • TodaroRichard Richard Todaro, CFA (@TodaroRichard) reported

    @cmdicely @EpsilonTheory That is a true statement but would miss the fact that the guy has made people trillions between, PayPal, Tsla, SpaceX etc. So, in my eyes if his overvalued $tsla stock comes back down due to him buying Twtr, he still has made them a lot of money and earned the right to do it.

  • ShotTakingTime Buck Swope (@ShotTakingTime) reported

    @EJXD2 @Starks43 @EmilyOptixEQ Once in awhile I will post that a like a given horse and will get DM’s either thanking me or wishing me a slow death because they bet along for reasons I will never understand. People have offered me PayPal “tips” before as well. The bird app is a weird scene.

  • wormthrall worm (@wormthrall) reported

    @WaifuPrime @MissDitto @Allinair It is how it is, theres nothing we can do except try to minimalize damage that could be done and keep our heads down. It doesnt mean we cant enjoy life and ****, but we need to be careful It wasnt that long ago that buying was possible via paypal, now it is not..

  • quokixx quoki (@quokixx) reported

    @elisavliegen idk but when you fix a price lmk and link the paypal.

  • UGCher UGC | HER (@UGCher) reported

    @PayPalNews I'm absolutely sure you care enough to fix it now. Please do as this is a serious issue and you seem to let costumer support do absolutely little to nothing and treat costumers with utter disrespect and disregard. #PayPal #ugc

  • slumskull slum skull (@slumskull) reported

    @ark3tech @MrFF1_eth I had heard that aside from the credit card issues there was an exploit by using paypal/Apple Pay with insufficient funds the transaction would go through. I believe that was an early loophole the devs were aware of and got fixed.

  • JoshMurray MrJoshua (@JoshMurray) reported

    @UPS_UK Hi - Your website isn't able to process my payment - If I select card, or paypal, it gives the same error: "We're sorry. The payment card information cannot be processed. Please check for accuracy and try again, or enter another payment card." Please help!

  • XanderGeistal Xander Geistal 🕵️👻| ENVtuber | Hiatus Arc Go! (@XanderGeistal) reported

    @VTuberSweets Not just Paypal, but I've had it from Amazon for like a month. "Your account is locked, you can't purchase anything until you do this." Meanwhile, I'm spending all the money on things no problem and wishing they would lock it so I can't spend money. lol

    Last time I did the artwork before receiving payment, the person doxxed me and tried to blackmail me using (outdated) address info by using the name attached to my PayPal. So yes, you pay up front, and I won't back down on that.
