    Paypal just took my money. The shop doesn't have an order from me but the only paypal option is to issue a refund but the shop never received any money so the shop cannot refund it. So looks like I lost 15 dollars and not getting my order

    @kittypurrzog I hate paypal and have had nothing but trouble with them. Use Zelle. Actually, use anything but paypal. No one else would give you this kind of run around. There is no 180 day law.

    @blind_guardian It let me order the Imaginations preorder shirt through paypal even though I'm the US. Anyway to know if this will cause any issues or will the order get refunded if it can't be completed?

  • imaskeered Imaskeered @Patti, not Patricia (@imaskeered) reported

    @DocAtCDI I have a perpetual problem with ongoing “receipts” from PayPal for purchases of crypto currency. Pure phishing expeditions, forward to spoof@paypal & delete email, DON’T open! Give the issuing company a call to make sure that is the protocol to be followed for YOUR situation.

  • SkullyFNBR 💜 Skully 💜 (@SkullyFNBR) reported

    @LionheartOhMy You have the other problem. I can buy whatever I want without having money on Paypal, you seem to have another problem and might be the problem that Fortnite is having now (it says in the lobby)

  • DaveNiks Dave Nicholson (@DaveNiks) reported

    @click_and_drop I think you have technical issue with email used on website and email used to pay by PayPal. The QR code should be emailed to PayPal email by default not to what may have been entered incorrectly on website. I did not receive QR code and trying to understand why?

  • candlemaths Olefin Faraday (@candlemaths) reported

    @DaveMilbo Payroll issues, but actually all sorted now, so there is a pint sitting here for whenever you want it, or if you have a PayPal I'll happily send you money for a pint or sixer. Your writing saved my sanity. Getting you a pint is the least I can do.
