  • kingofaccra KING OF ACCRA (@kingofaccra) reported

    @IamBohhi @PayPal That's how they are. I reported a problem to them and they blocked my account such a sham service filled with disappointment.

  • TheWat1734 Shaugn Watson (@TheWat1734) reported

    @GemBreakers @CardPurchaser Same thing would happen to me with PayPal and after having to wait almost a month for funds I stopped selling bigger cards. $5-$150 no problem anything more they hold.. 🗑

  • CyberDeamon Brian (@CyberDeamon) reported

    @PayPal hey ummm... Holding 1.3 million in sales from a legit tech company is bad press. I really like PayPal. Please fix the problem with flipper zero. Thanks

  • Serg_os Shadow_of_Shiba (@Serg_os) reported

    @IamBohhi @AskPayPal I will think 2 times before using paypal now. Crypto feels more safe in such cases ... wish you luck with this problem !

    @JustAPye @SilverstoneUK Having issues with PayPal too

  • jane_studio Jane Allwright (@jane_studio) reported

    @jennymeindesign @amazon ...it takes up to 5 days to appear in your account, (unlike immediate payment via Paypal). On a recent sale of £29.99, including P&P for a hardback book, Amazon took £8.13 in fees. Recently Try as I have I have not been able to draw down monies due, have sent messages to no avail

    @jontanium However if you dont want to dox yourself and handle larger sums of money w/o much trouble, I recommend upgrading your Paypal ACC to a business one or get a second PP ACC for that reason connected to your bank/second bank ACC, so you can hide personal info on the invoices!

    If anyone is having trouble at the payment stage of Silverstone tickets, try PayPal. I had two cards rejected but Paypal worked for me.

  • chilichrissy 🌶ChrisSi🇨🇭🇺🇦🌻🎗 (@chilichrissy) reported

    @goblin__soup Soon! My paypal is blocked for another 3 days blocked and the wolfs monobank is not working anymore (for me?). 🥲

  • YourBoyStove Steve Morck (@YourBoyStove) reported

    Has anyone tried to work with @PayPal customer service and have it log into a remote server, because they just tried that with me and I force closed and almost pulled my computer out of the wall.

  • gryphalyaza alyaza the gryphon! (@gryphalyaza) reported

    update on the paypal issue: if i'm lucky it'll be resolved *late* next month

  • PeterneshGakure Peter Munene Gakure (@PeterneshGakure) reported

    @LiLBoWeep @AskPayPal @PayPal Please link your PayPal account with your bank to avoid such problems. My thoughts though.

  • Jen241002 Jennifer Edwards-Cox (@Jen241002) reported

    @Biggy_G @SilverstoneUK I had the same problem but tried through PayPal and it worked. I just added my card to PayPal during the transaction. Good luck

  • LisooUpdates K. (@LisooUpdates) reported

    @ErisaNyu @fnntassa Tbh this whole presale was a damn mess. They were hiding types and prices of tickets. The day of presale website was glitching, code wasn't working then I had problem with Paypal. It wouldn't hurt them to send us basic information about tickets the day before.

  • HughesAmmie Moondancera (@HughesAmmie) reported

    @junkofzeart I would love to order, but paypal is having issues with me. 👿. I will try again later.

  • CrocoDylian Croco Dylian🐊🇨🇱🔞 | FIESTAS PATRIAS (@CrocoDylian) reported

    @byelacey Yep, out of PayPal fees my 500 dollars went down to 460

  • custome73171295 karen horner (@custome73171295) reported

    @chlo1497 @SilverstoneUK Omg 😱 I can’t believe the site is this bad. I spent 2 hours waiting in the queue and then after I tried to pay it wouldn’t accept 5 different banks cards from me and my dads accounts so I had to set up a PayPal account while the timer was going down.

    PayPal might be a pain in the *** after this but it’s not too much of a problem as I don’t use them much at all If the change of details is gonna be annoying with them, I’ll just make a new account with that update info Hoping it just goes smoothly though

  • SaphGMD Saph (@SaphGMD) reported

    But I’m honestly kinda lost. I’d imagine this is somewhat common but @AskPayPal if there’s an easier fix I’d definitely be up to that- I’m not really sure what to do (3/3)
