Katsap Hunter (@joeysandviches1) reported@tveskov The rest of the world is finally figuring out what Silicon Valley realized decades ago: he's an idiot. He got kicked out of PayPal for being a moron (with spoiled brat entitlement issues), and it only went downhill from there.

P3 🇵🇷 (@p3ashooter025_) reported@Frosty_Neo1 Apparently paypal is taking down art accounts for no reason, it was the same issue a few months back

Greg Grn (@GregGrn3) reported@artwithinpod Doesn't have intelligence?? this man is responsible for Neuralink, Tesla, Paypal,SpaceX. To name a few, saying he doesn't have intelligence is a sign of your lack of intelligence. Sit ******** down. He made that woman look like a ******* moron.

Alex Potorochin 🦑 commissions (@artistpotoq) reported@NamesakeGeodite It's true, the new PayPal policy and support are terrible. They took $700 from my main account for nothing and won't give it back. This was my money for the month, I got into trouble because of it

SunlightSeeker(comms open again) (@SeekingSolar) reported@explosiveorenji Dang. I use PayPal, I can only hope they dont shut me down, but at least I only really use it as a go-between
-
Club ***** (@TheClubVixen) reported@NamesakeGeodite 99% of people's issues with paypal is just them not knowing the law. Like you would need to to choose not to be a sole proprietor, and instead be another business type. If you choose that then yes you need the legal info regarding it.

Tara St. Michel ♪ (@TaraStMichel) reportedWait if you operate under your legal name you don’t legally have to register anything. Is PayPal still shutting people down for operating legally like that? I’m in Canada and you only need a license or permit if you have a business name to register.
-
horseguy (@dekuscrubmike) reportedThe issue is the fact Paypal is basically one of the only international payment apps that Canada allows that lets most people all over the world be able to purchase from me and many others.

🐺 Athena 🐺 HATSUKOI nov 14/15 mesa 102! 🐾 (@HungryAthena) reportedFor once, Paypal actually fixed problems way quicker than I thought it would and I didn't have to fight anyone over the phone this time, yay!

Kdl6785 (@kdl6785) reported@RobertJSalvador ROBERT Chris just asked BUYRON about his insider trading and BUYRON with his anger issues exploded into a bevy of angry lies and trying to cover up his crimes.. who knew that one could earn 600% profit return on just casually doing stock trades? BUYRON needs to educate the FL VOTERS ON HOW HE IS SO DARN GOOD AT PICKING THOSE STOCKS! CURIOUS JUST HOW DID BUYRON KNOW ABOUT THE DOJ CIVIL LAWSUIT AGAINST PAYPAL WOULD BE SETTLED SO QUICKLY AFTER HE PURCHASED THEIR STOCK? GEEZ WHAT A RETURN OF AN INVESTMENT THAT WAS! PURCHASING IT IN MARCH 2026 AND BAM SETTLED IN MAY 2026! HIS SURPRISING SUCCESS EVEN CAUGHT THE NOD OF OUR VERY OWN DOJ AG HARMEET DHILLION.. SHE COMMENTED ON BUYRONS SHOCKINGLY GROWING STOCK MARKET SUCCESSES! WHAT A GUY! HE IS A STOCK MARKET SAVANT!

-
Aiman (@aimanthaufyq) reported@seefromthesky Isnt this showing that the problem is with small payments rather than paypal as a whole? For larger transactions, the effective fee is close to what many international processors charge.

Bartolita era una poya (@whoiscalaca) reportedPLEASE STOP USING PAYPAL, I ALREADY GOT TWO ACCOUNTS DOWN WITH MONEY ON THEM 😭😭😭

Jeffrey Knapp (@jkizda123) reported@JustExoticss My sign up email is different from my PayPal transaction email. Is that going to be an issue?
-
Luther Vandraws (@FaisonctArt) reportedOh this had been an issue for years, and it’s not just for the lack of business permit. I think I’ve only seen one case where the person was able to get access back to their money. Also stop using PayPal as a temporary bank.
