    @iamDCinvestor DC! Bruh, why is nobody talking about the stable coin that will fix all of this? PayPal knows what’s up. They’re waiting for this and have the regulatory backing, financial willpower and practical reach to jump into action when this all goes down and SHTF. $RSR $RSV #Paypal

    @PayPal Please help me. You locked my account as I used another laptop. I cannot contact the Action Centre as that requires to login and you won't let me. I called multiple times and no agent available: they say I need to go to the online action centre which I cannot do.

    @AdenikeRaks This is akin to expecting Nigerian fintechs to solve Paypal not working here! It's not a Nigerian fintech problem! The only way to solve it is to build our own PayPal.

  • CicmilJovan Jovan Cicmil · The Unstoppable Freelancer (@CicmilJovan) reported

    @rosemary_egbo Can you go to a neighboring country to open a bank account and then open your own PayPal/Wise/Payoneer using that? People did that here before when we had similar issues.

  • JacobLewdfries 🔞 Jakey Steakey, #Tsubametember (@JacobLewdfries) reported

    Due to Paypal's new puritanical ToS, my ko-fi has been taken down and NSFW content is no longer allowed there. Funtimes, certainly. I'll keep everyone updated on what steps I'll be taking to continue taking ya'lls support.

  • theforestcat the forest cat ♬☆ (@theforestcat) reported

    @SquishyPandaah @AustraliaPs5 Same here! Order status error though it says processing when I click into the order details. The amount has been charged on my PayPal and i received an email saying that I would be notified once the order's shipped as well,,but I am expecting it to cancel itself in a few hours 😢

  • ThisIsRaviraj Raviraj Subramanian 🦄🥑 (@ThisIsRaviraj) reported

    @ShivEnigma I have used PayPal and Veem to receive overseas payments. PayPal had an initial validation period of 3 months when all payments are held for some 15 days. For other issues, their support can help resolve. Veem reaches bank account in 1-3 working days. Wise is another good option.

    What type of paypal dispute does my issue fall under if I returned the poor quality and wrong size items, the company agreed to a refund, and then just doesn't pay it?

    Indian friends, Have you received overseas payments before? I'm trying with PayPal but the sender is getting some error and can't send me. Do I need to convert into PayPal business account? Are there any other ways to receive overseas payment?

    @Blackcircles_CS Can someone please come back to me urgently. Appointment was meant to be tomorrow but issues with your site via PayPal. No replies to my emails and contact number doesn’t work. Help! 😫

  • OtunbaBrickz Angstrom Levy (@OtunbaBrickz) reported

    @AdenikeRaks Loool, I don't know you enough to make any assumptions! The point I'm making is you're only looking at the problem from one perspective. Can NG solve this problem? Yes! Would it be easier/cheaper to solve this on the JP side? Yes! PS: FW can only do as much as PayPal allows!

  • meltingmellows michaelablue69 (@meltingmellows) reported

    @PayPal You guys have pathetic customer service. I’ve been contacting and no one is coming to my aid. Can you fix the issue?

  • StrangerMonco Shaun (@StrangerMonco) reported

    @SportsDirect_CS Hi, I've been trying to order stiff for the past 2 days but keep getting "there was a problem processing your request, please try again" I've tried my card and PayPal. Both to no avail. Any idea? Cheers

  • SeamusOChan Chan (@SeamusOChan) reported

    @LDNSupplements Paypal checkout is broken: "Your payment can’t be processed for technical reasons. Try again or use a different payment method." Will this be resolved soon?

  • ZoeRuncorn Zoe E Runcorn (@ZoeRuncorn) reported

    @AskPayPal Still awaiting a solution and a response to the previous two private messages. Terrible customer service.
