    @AskPayPal My account was permanently limited incorrectly. I am over 18 and reside in Kenya, where PayPal is supported. I believe this was triggered in error and I am requesting a manual review. I am ready to provide ID and any verification required.

    @TiffaHorror @PayPal There is also a very specific number on the page that refers to me, which they can look up and see the source of the problem. I use Cloudflare and am not a tech person but have somehow managed to fix similar problems with them on my own

    Across all of this, PayPal has made a remarkable number of major moves in a very short time (not entirely certain if any of these were made to directly improve stock performance): 1. Fired CEO Alex Chriss and replaced him with Enrique Lores, saying Chriss's pace of execution fell short (Feb 2026). 2. Launched Venmo internationally across 90 countries for the first time ever (March 2026). 3. Opened Nigeria to receive PayPal payments for the first time in 20 years through a Paga partnership (Jan 2026). 4. Applied for a U.S. bank charter to create PayPal Bank (April 2026). 5. Expanded its PYUSD stablecoin to 70 markets worldwide (Feb 2026). 6. Committed $400 million to fix branded checkout this year (March 2026). 7. Offered free tax filing for PayPal Debit cardholders (Jan 2026).

    @uhsugas Hopefully! PayPal g&s was used so it probably wouldn’t be an issue getting the money returned but not having a ticket is the bigger problem. Also scared for my friends tickets from ticket sites 😭

    The main problem is that we lack a globally popular payment method like PayPal. We have some decent options but none pose a real threat to them. If there were widely accepted alternatives worldwide, PayPal would be forced to adjust its rules.

    These people want to try me. Signed up for one free trial like that. Now now now they were deducting money from my PayPal when it’s not even 30 days. The email I sent to them, they knew I was ready to bring down fire and brimstone on their head this evening! They had to refund!
