  • melannduke mel (@melannduke) reported

    If you have ever had any luck contacting an actual human at @AskPayPal @PayPal, tell me your ways! I've been attempting for over a week. I have what should be a very simple issue to resolve. I'm convinced they have no actual customer service department 🙁

  • shut_upsierra SierraLeo (@shut_upsierra) reported from Sweetwater, Tennessee

    @PayPal @AskPayPal can honestly get fxcked. Quit giving me the runaround and give me my ******* money?????? $200+ should be nothing to PayPal, but that’s a lot to a small business owner. FIX IT.

  • Du2bling Salim Abdulrahim (@Du2bling) reported

    @PayPal I can't login on my account the only option to authenticate is through mobile number which i don't have access to rather than my email address any help??? Its been month

  • InEdgeEdit al walker (@InEdgeEdit) reported

    @AskPayPal There's no point, I've sent two emails and all you've done is give me PR speak. Take some action, fix the problem. You have all the data to do it.

  • goddess_cate Goddess Cate 😇 BDAY: 5/22 🍃 (@goddess_cate) reported

  • forkeyland (@forkeyland) reported

    @fabibinnie I'm trying to pay via the PayPal link and it's giving me an error..

  • LucidSummoner SuperLoverBoy (@LucidSummoner) reported

    besides i reckon its more fun feeling the vibe in the pocket instead of dealing with coins and paper, only problems is fees, fees on tips or something makes no sense, needa fork(?) or new coin/app for that, idk. paypal should have doge coin imo

  • NightTigerFTW Michael (@NightTigerFTW) reported

    @melvin_zill First off, how would it affect your access to the platform? Second, reduced fees, the removal of a middleman *PayPal*, and not having to worry about your funds being put on hold after a sale is a total game changer for what I do. I don’t see what the problem is..

  • Devil_Hog Scout-Sniper ☠️ (@Devil_Hog) reported

    @AskPayPal One says it’s been a month, still not resolved, and two paypal reps told him it was a paypal error.

  • wilkomcv Wilko (@wilkomcv) reported

    @AskPayPal Hi, I need to make an urgent payment but I can't access my PayPal account. All it's telling me is that you are unable to verify that it's me, but I've never had any problems with this. I can't complete two-step verification or change password. Help please.

  • bigtrendtrader TRADER (@bigtrendtrader) reported

    Honestly i haven't used @eBay_UK for years. Been trying to buy things for the past 4 days. Tried my card.. failed... Paypal... failed ... Called my bank they said its an eBay issue. I stated this to eBay in a email and they replied and said "Try another payment method"

  • Devil_Hog Scout-Sniper ☠️ (@Devil_Hog) reported

    @AskPayPal I’m pretty sure they’re already in contact, but getting no help. Are you experiencing problems with staffing?

  • emigrewidower Gordon Darroch (@emigrewidower) reported

    Had an email from PayPal offering me a small reward if I recommend them to 5 friends. So I'd just like to say they offer a terrible service, crap exchange rates, exorbitant fees, oodles of spam and you should use Wise instead.

  • ForgedinNeon FӨЯGΣD IП ПΣӨП - Ashley (@ForgedinNeon) reported

    @AskPayPal Hi Team, Im sure you've been asked this a billion times so I apologise in advance but I have had a long standing issue where I get an error when I'm trying to link my bank account. I'm in Ireland. Is there some banks not supported? Thanks

  • xingxyix beka (@xingxyix) reported

    I want to say thank you to all of you who helped with donations and spreading the information around. We had problems with PayPal and GoFundMe since its basically doesnt work in my country. But with my partner's help i recieved the first part of donations.

  • flabsinav flabsinav (@flabsinav) reported

    @VortexM_ @PayPal fix your ****

  • mixtapemassacre Mixtape Massacre™ (@mixtapemassacre) reported

    @MisterOdinson There’s no issue. The PayPal receipt would be the only thing you receive at this point. No shipping will be occurring until later this year. Following the campaign is where all backers are receiving updates, so I would definitely follow for that latest.

  • melannduke mel (@melannduke) reported

    @AskPayPal @PayPal Ive been trying to contact an actual human for over a week to resolve an issue and having no luck. PLEASE HELP. Do you have a customer service department????

  • QuietlyAlice Alice Winchester (@QuietlyAlice) reported

    @WhatTheBeck12 @Etsy I think it might be a PayPal thing, I had a similar problem when I tried to purchase a game on Steam recently for my daughter. It was stuck on payment processing and wouldn't let her download the game.

  • VikingChaos VikingChaos (@VikingChaos) reported

    @AskPayPal can't login to PayPal as it asks for 2 step verification and the mobile number is an old one, please help.

  • Thepunter17 Thepunter (@Thepunter17) reported

    @itsmebutterz @sweetsinner3 If they do get the PayPal deal, it is a year down the road, a lot can happen in a year!!

  • Jawwadrizvi Jawwad Rizvi (@Jawwadrizvi) reported

    @karamgondal Sir Paypal nhi aay ga Issue of paypal is different than others...

  • emigrewidower Gordon Darroch (@emigrewidower) reported

    As a freelancer, I've turned down assignments because the client has insisted on paying through PayPal, with their 5% cut - which means if I spend 40 hours on a job, I'm effectively giving 2 hours' free labour to PayPal. Just say no, people.

  • terriblenachos gas station nachos (@terriblenachos) reported

    @AskPayPal, why have you stolen my money? I sent cash to a friend, it left my bank account, you stole it, manufactured an NSF fee on top of it and then double charged my credit card when I had to “resolve” the issue? I’m out $575 for a $180 money transfer. Your app is ****.

  • terriblenachos gas station nachos (@terriblenachos) reported

    .@AskPayPal why have you stolen my money? I sent cash to a friend, it left my bank account, you kept it, charged me an NSF fee too and then double charged my credit card when I had to “resolve” the issue? I’m out $575 for a $180 money transfer. Why use your service at all?

  • aloofandsurly Dawn H (@aloofandsurly) reported

    Hi, I sent a DM but still waiting for a response to my list of items I need to order. Website still will not allow checkout unless using a flexible Credit (I want to pay by card or PayPal). Is nobody else getting this issue? 😩

  • Meonplanetearth 🐶 Ems 1867 💙 (@Meonplanetearth) reported

    @SCGR_Rescue I'm having issues with the link - I've got two of your profiles on my PayPal which one is right?
