My PayPal has had a negative balance glitch for over 3 months now. Anyone else have this problem. How long must it take to fix a visual bug?

@juanmoretime16 @mattyglesias I just logged into my Chase account and checked (don't often use it), and, lo and behold, they do offer a one click report of a problem with a charge. Not as straightforward as AMEX, PayPal, Apple, etc., but it is offered.

Remove my Paypal from my @Uber @Uber_Support account due to an issue. Re-add it and it tells me it’s being used by too many accounts. Uber’s response: we’re unable to remove the restriction. Bruh. The amount of money I’ve spent on this company lol.

Whoever sent to Me on PayPal with what looks like a Hebrew name, and checked “paying for an item or service”: I have refunded that send. Resend to Me, and check “sending to a friend.” Sends to Me as an item or service are delayed, and I don’t like waiting. Fix it.

Hey, @AskPayPal I tried to login to my old PayPal account. It wants to confirm through text that it’s my account. I don’t have that number anymore. How can I update my PayPal account?

@EmptyLuckBox Its the slow boil as always. Its just for people that use PayPal and like services for example. Its the complete opposite of going after the "big fish" like we keep hearing.

@Horu_111 Fellas if you got a comm you’ve been waiting a stupid long time, if ya still can just report the problem on PayPal and if they get enough cases they not only lock his account he’ll be forced to either refund or actually go through with drawing, I like horu but this is ridiculous

I know some SMBs who would move payment platforms once they approached the old $20K reporting threshold - its harder now: The IRS is cracking down on payments received through 3rd apps like @Venmo, @PayPal and @CashApp

@Cosmic_Reindeer You dont report people - what happens is Paypal will send the IRS the income you made and then when you file your taxes if you dont claim the income then you will get in trouble for not claimimg proper income

@SkyhammerX @helvetica5td The overriding problem is payment processors are pressuring these platforms from the outside. It's not just Steam, Patreon, the Play store; it's Visa, MasterCard, & PayPal that are deplatforming these sites that are trying to stay Adult-Oriented by blocking paymnts to those areas

@TheQuartering I don't care much about Ian's excuses and drama here. In my experience PayPal can do it all. Couple of times I even had to guide their technical support on how to fix account/card problems their system caused me.

@SoundShow3r Too late for eBay, but can still go through PayPal until end of February. I know @polymegaHQ have shortages but it’s the lack of communication that’s the biggest issue here.

Target will most likely drop its massive PlayStation 5 disc restock tomorrow. Sleep early, be up early (4am PT|6am CT|7am ET), sign in details, select store pickup location, Spam checkout button until order is placed. Use PayPal/Target card for faster checkout experience (1/2)

@findmypast @UkNatArchives I’ve created a brand new login for FMP just for this, with a separate email address. That has let me checkout, offering both credit card and PayPal options. I went for PayPal, and have now viewed my granny’s image. Going for more. Main FMP account still not working for this.

Nigerian residents, how do you receive international payments? I've tolerated PayPal for 5+ years and I'm tired. My client is experiencing a problem making a direct deposit to my domiciliary account. What are my options?
