I think it's cool how it's 2023 and opting for the most secure 2FA method in PayPal still means PayPal is broken on phones. It refuses to let you even *try* to use a security key to sign in. Even if your phone's WebViews support them!

@mfana_Wasemzini @PayPal @ReserveBankZIM Yes, they were lying to us that PayPal was not working because of sanctions.

@cb1ishere @thesolesupplier I find that attaching your PayPal and paying that way is the least problematic way. This morning though, their system wanted me to enter my address (even though it's pre-saved) so that slowed me down.

@TheGandalf4308 It’s the same issue with United24. We are only allowed to select donations for humanitarian and rebuilding purposes, not military. PayPal guidelines. 😕

@rajendrazore @stripe We've had lots of issues dealing with Paypal and Braintree is owned by them, so I understand where you're coming from. Luckily, we haven't had any issues with Braintree for the past 4 years. Stripe was not available in our country when we started, so we didn't have much choice…

@AraDG11 I found out about BTC through online forums in 2011. I ran a Runescape Private Server where I'd receive donations via PayPal and Runescape Gold. RSGP was what we used to transact anonymously before BTC. When BTC came out all I did was use it for avoiding PayPal since I was 15.

If you're ever purchasing resale for BTS tickets 1. Always check request proof 2. Request to face time, whatsapp, phone call while reviewing 3. Always PayPal G&S or buyer protection on chosen platform 4. If seller has an issue with any of these, move along.

@MirabelleVtuber Had a friend who did this to me minus the rude comment. She said PayPal ate her money, then came clean and told me she used my ~$70 for family issues, and then cut contact with me, no refund given. It’s been hard to commission ppl cause I now lack that trust needed for such.

@davidbix Yes I couldn't get my debit to work for the Muta show and had to use PayPal. Also had issues a year ago and they emailed saying their system was down and to try another way. I tried months later and got debit to work. They put out a statement when all that happened

@McKenzieSHooper Hi! Make sure to login on Yes24 minutes before because you could get logged out. For getting seats, it’s really all about luck. I just clicked and clicked whatever seat was available until it proceeded to payment. 😨😨😨 Also fastest way to pay is through PayPal.
