Paypal Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • jagough5 James Gough (@jagough5) reported

    @altontowers I have two pending transactions on my paypal for scarefest. Both transactions are not required as the order was duplicated due to a connection problem with paypal when processing the order

  • AriDavidPaul Ari Paul ⛓️ (@AriDavidPaul) reported

    @itsLIRAN The issue is that it’s what users want (at least so far.) People are happily using twitter over mastodon, Visa and PayPal over LN or Monero, most people (even in China) don’t bother with a VPN. We message with gmail and WhatsApp more than Signal. Etc.

  • StreamGamesTV StreamGames (@StreamGamesTV) reported

    Because we had some issues with PayPal, we removed PayPal as a payment method and our payments are now processed with @stripe .

  • m0m0x01d Daher Mohamed (@m0m0x01d) reported

    @HaythamE - if I tried to exploit the same bug with a credit card I would have been billed for all the requests I sent because the server would have my CC information to do it, but here PayPal helped me exploit it 🙃

  • jagough5 James Gough (@jagough5) reported

    @AskPayPal I have two pending transactions on my account. Both are errors due to a connection problem with the purchase website. When will this pending order be cancelled?

  • liverpooltoonz Kop Cartoons (@liverpooltoonz) reported

    @zanetalkssports It’s safe with PayPal you can get money back If it’s a problem

  • crimson_mark69 Metta 🦄🌈 (@crimson_mark69) reported

    @faniie86 I don't understand about PayPal cuz I have never use PayPal but you right ppl need be careful when they want to buy with PayPal maybe better to ask first or use other payment cuz I saw some international fans have no problems with their order from EASTICE

  • tubbygyu patpat 🥟 (@tubbygyu) reported

    @dksgyusolo I saw other people on twitter having the same problem so I’m gonna wait till tmr to see if it’s just the processing time on the website’s end. If there’s still no ticket tmr then imma dispute it in PayPal 🙃

  • QUEENOUIJA1 💖😈 QUEEN CHAV 😈💖 (@QUEENOUIJA1) reported

  • StratusNova Stratus (@StratusNova) reported

    @twitchnuhdge @discord can you at least freeze my friends account? They've gotten multiple attempts to continue the hacking wave. We've shut them down as best we can but they've drained her paypal entirely now. Would be cool if they didn't have access to our server owner's account.

  • cogentfm Mike Tolley (@cogentfm) reported

    @TPLINKUK - I’ve got faulty equipment and an approved RMA but your PayPal account is suspended so can’t pay for advanced collection/delivery and your phone lines are down so can’t ring to arrange payment - can someone PLEASE get in touch

    @HaythamE The site is a platform where creators sells things they created. Anyone can buy it and as the creator you get 50% of the price. The bug was exploitable when checking out with PayPal. Once you confirm the payment in your PayPal account, a request was sent to the server to confirm-

    @Eljaboom @PayPal For me @PayPal is a joke. I personally had a nightmare thanks to their terrible customer service. But I thank them for that, because of them I entered #crypto.

  • SimonAndrewx Simon Andrew (@SimonAndrewx) reported

    @MissDestructo Tried to donate, there's a processing issue so if you message me your PayPal I can do it that way and no one misses out. ♥♥♥♥

  • Brinkster0x OnTheBrink 🦇🔊🤑 (@Brinkster0x) reported

    Dealing with @AskPayPal support to resolve an issue with my account. (if you like insanity, try it). To tell me what page I need to go to they give instructions like... click on the bell icon, then find blah etc, rather than sending me a link. It's like 1992 all over again. 🤦

  • El_ReyBob El Rey Bob💎🙌 (@El_ReyBob) reported

    @DfyKen @Eljaboom @PayPal Paypal customer service is a ******* joke xdddd When I had my ebay shop every time I had a problem with Paypal they never could do a ******* ****

  • Kirstyooo Kirsty (@Kirstyooo) reported

    @LouboutinWorld My husband has spent over £600 on shoes that were meant to be refunded due to a sizing issue after repeated calls to yourselves customer service claims to have refunded @BarclaysUK and @PayPal have no record. No shoes and over £600 out of pocket!!!

    @PayPal y’all been holding my money for 5 days bro fix this ASAP 💯💯

  • nedwardScsrhnds Red Heresy (@nedwardScsrhnds) reported

    Sure would be nice if @eBay sent my payment to my bank after my item was delivered a week ago... I've logged in online to my bank information twice and manually entered yet there's still an issue?! I'm sorry but you ****** it up getting rid of PayPal this is atrocious

  • hermesbabie Hermes, Babie! 🦋 (@hermesbabie) reported

    @barksport The only slight issue is that my parents are able to see where I make purchases (because stalking your 20 year olds bank account is cool), whereas I’m in the clear if they just see a purchase at Amazon. However I am free and cool with my Venmo and PayPal?

  • jagough5 James Gough (@jagough5) reported

    @altontowers I have two pending transactions on my paypal account for scarefest as the order was not processing correctly. Do i need to take this issue up with you or paypal?
