  When support is down & it’s business style meeting time, DSP is all “WE need to figure out what’s wrong” & “what are WE going to do.” After that money hits PayPal? “It’s MY money, and IM going to do whatever I want with it.”

  Let's be honest with this PayPal issue. Fraud has brought us here. Si ati ni mbaya kutafta riziki, but we're not clean.

  @AskPayPal There should eb a slider for all these extra securities and we should be able to turn them off completely if we want to. Because I do not want to use it I am harassed every time I login. I want to choose the level of security for my accounts.

  @boopbetty1000 @BrydonN2 @viagogo I’ve been in correspondence with them every few weeks for a year. I even had a phone call but that didn’t help. The whole thing is the problem between them and PayPal. 🤬

  @Larryisoverit @vexmlk @PayPal not at all, i'm all for people spreading awareness of the issue, paypal is NOT The payment provider to use if you do NSFW stuff, they don't want you as a customer. like it or not, it is their right to do that.

  @GooglePlay @AskPayPal The fact they're in game isn't the issue. The fact they're falsely advertising is.

  PayPal will hold your funds for 180 days and give you a countdown. On the material day and hour for you to withdraw, you will go through all the steps and click on “ withdraw “ then an error pops up “ We were unable to capture the funds. Contact tribunal “ Highway robbers.

  @Romeo_Onchain I think the main problem is withdrawing the funds You need a UK Tax ID , Government ID and a UK PayPal account And there is not any way to pass this without having a close friend or relative in the UK

  @ntvkenya The reason many nigerians always left their country to go work online in another country whereas they could have done the same in their own country is because PayPal has always been block in their country, now they are transmitting the same problem in other countries!

  @Fite_Dragon The worst part of PayPal is that it assumes you make too much $$ and think it's fraud. Had another artist had this issue last year. Not so great... Hopefully you'll get it back as is?..

  @amerix I have used paypal for over 13 years never had any issues. I believe majority of accounts are locked out due to verification issues

  @CRYPTOAD00 The problem sometimes is not us but the people you are working with I was working with a client and they insisted on using paypal. Don't know why.

  neverpaytax (@MEvsIRS) reported 46 minutes ago

  One night I had like 750 .ai domains in my dynadot cart but when I went to checkout I had to relink paypal and it wouldn’t let me login and my wallet was in the car so I was just like fck this ill do it later then I forgot to do it and a couple months later 70% of those names were taken a few of them have been sold for so much money now Prob lost a cool 800k because I didn’t want to go get my wallet out of my car When you can see the future it reduces the equation of success to effort=s But sometimes a ***** would rather enjoy himself because e=s is not the only equation in life to try and solve for

  The problem with PayPal in Africa is dependency risk. One policy change, one compliance flag, one region restriction, and your funds will be paused, probed, or permanently frozen with zero negotiation.

  This is riducluous lol @vexmlk is on a whole nother level o e-begging, scamming, grifting, manipulating, what ever you wanne call it lol -So she wanted 5k for a down payment, then it went to 1500 -Her mom then gave her 2k and then another 1200 for insurance -But now she has to pay her mother back for the insurance -Assuming a High Interest rate because she's horrible with money the car payment probably comes in around 300 for a 5-year loan, 270 for a 6 year. -Now we add in 200 a month for insurance so, we are up to 500 a month for the car, and let's say a 100 a month for gas, now we are at 600 -It's a high mileage car so maintenance is gonna need to be done unless she got a extended warranty which would also add to the monthly payment -Another recent post says she's paying $300 a month for hormone medication -Assuming she is still paying 2k for rent, shes now at $2900 for just a car, rent, and 1 medication Let's not forget, Phone, Internet, Food, Essentials, Subscriptions and other stuff....I'd say we are at about 4k a month now and now she's adding "school" on top of that, probably another 500 a month. She's admitted to spending more than she makes...HOW THE F IS THIS POSSIBLE? I mean she knew the risks of using PayPal while doing NSFW stuff and that they were cracking down on those things (No I do not agree with what PayPal is doing, but right now there is no one stopping them). I'm just dumbfounded how not only does she use the simps as her personal piggy bank but her mom too? It is so sad really... and what happened to the Dentist? Maybe her mom should have spent that 2k on her health instead of a car? I mean on May 18th she was e-begging or 1600 for an apt on May 29th.....So what happened? Did she make the apt? or is that 800 in PayPal part of what was supposed to be for a dentist and not her mopther?

  @TwitchSupport @Twitch Really? You have a creator who has things set up as you suggested and their payment method was still hacked. Wouldn’t it make sense to maybe block a payee when you know they are fraudulent? I understand with PayPal it’s hard to clawback but this is kinda BS. It’s a known issue that creators are seeing over the last few months and it feels like nothing has been done to heighten security to help better block fraudulent activity. You are a big corporation please do better
