Paypal Issues Reports

Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:

  • _bluebl8d_ bluebl8d - birthday this month 🔞 (@_bluebl8d_) reported

    @1pervydwarf @TenkAboutHeart Maybe you can. If artists are getting screwed by that then PayPal must have someone cross-referencing invoices with artists' public media-- troubling but not terribly surprising if true. I haven't had any issues, but this conversation may have just put me in their crosshairs.

  • rkniner Richard K Niner (@rkniner) reported

    *glances at his email* Ah, I see PayPal is doing everything they can to alienate their customers. $20 annual "inactivity" fee coming down the pipeline. Guess it's probably a good time to close their account...

  • OliverSays2 🦮🐾Olivia (@OliverSays2) reported

    @CMomma77 I'm having trouble with PayPal probably because I haven't used it in years and I've moved. I just updated my account now waiting for them. I'll get it to you today.

  • TomLevenson Thomas Levenson, Zṓiarchos (@TomLevenson) reported

    What's an alternative to @PayPal? I did something stupid, ordering from a Chinese (language) site spoofing a Le Creuset outlet store. I realized my error in seconds; while it was pending, I asked PayPal to cancel. They didn't. The money's gone. Need a new payment app @AskPayPal

  • koined_store koined.store (@koined_store) reported

    CEO of Paypal, David Marcus, not only hodls #bitcoin, he's noted that it won't be a 'currency' until volatilty slows down - which we have consistently seen happening over time.

  • consumingtech ConsumingTech (@consumingtech) reported

    @AskPayPal I managed to resolve the issue. For whatever reason -- I don't ever call overseas since I don't have a reason to do it -- I had to remove the zero from my phone number. This info should be on the screen if everyone has to do it. This info is not commonly understood by people.

  • HenryMildestein Henry Mildenstein (@HenryMildestein) reported

    Won the long and hard-fought battle to get refunded for the secret GP (I signed up without looking at basically any of the details). Spent about a month getting left on read and hung up on the phone before filing a paypal complaint and having the issue solved 15 minutes later.

  • InteriorsDiva MsDesignDiva 🇨🇦 UBI now! (@InteriorsDiva) reported

    @pulte I like helping people when I can, but right now I'm in such deep poverty helping anyone is basically impossible. My paypal link is in my description that's how desperate I am, PWD in Canada down to my last $20 for the rest of the month.

  • InteriorsDiva MsDesignDiva 🇨🇦 UBI now! (@InteriorsDiva) reported

    @pulte Any plans to help Canadian PWDs, I'm down to my last $20, I know others who have $0 till the next PWD payment. Only have PayPal cause no CashApp in Canada. People With Disabilities are struggling to survive.

    @Maggiemayehaha @ShieldVoC @VenmoSupport This happens to me all the time. I play in a band and I get paid in Venmo. Multiple times I have not been able to pay my fellow musicians and Venmo tells me to just try to use another company. I’ll tell you what their problem is they’re associated with PayPal

  • suedaly422 Sue Daly (@suedaly422) reported

    @PayPal Fix your website. I have been trying to make a payment for 2 weeks and I get the same error message. I was on the phone today for 45 minutes, and the issue is still unresolved. It should take 2 maybe 3 clicks if your site were working properly.

  • TheMountainGOA5 TheMountainGOAT (@TheMountainGOA5) reported

    @PayPal my company has spent over 2 months trying to resolve an issue with customer care. Back and forth called over 50 times had emails bounced back and forth. Paypal had no problem collecting our money during this time and holding it. Customer service is just terrible
