-
Hugofrost (@H2gofrost) reported@AskPayPal no more stream until I resolve the issue... I really don't know what to do please help me if you experience this before
-
youssfi abdessamad (@lemeanter) reported@AskPayPal Hello, I encountered a technical issue with my account. It was permanently restricted the moment I uploaded my ID(CIN) for verification. I believe this was an automated mistake as the documents are 100% authentic. Could you please manually review my case? Thank you.

Timmy Turner (@timmyturner1337) reported@EspurTrashDump @NotJoshart I’d be down if it’s like over PayPal or smth if it’s not too expensive. I’m buying that Tomodachi game so maybe like next week if it’s over 50 dollars

Marwane (@MarwaneResub) reportedNever run 100% of your revenue through one processor. Stripe, PayPal, Shopify Payments — they're all the same risk. One fraud pattern. One disputed batch. One compliance flag. Your entire cashflow stops. Fix: Route volume across 2–3 processors. Never let one hold more than 60% of your monthly revenue.

bad robot (@foxenflask) reported@papi_kubosh He has been involved with PayPal indirectly since eBay acquired it in 2002, and directly as a PayPal board member from the 2015 spin‑off until he stepped down in 2017

hialex (@hialex_sol) reportedToday a designer in Buenos Aires getting paid by a US client has 3 bad options: • Wire → 3–5 days + $25–50 fees • PayPal → 8%+ taken • Crypto → confusing, needs SOL/ETH for gas, public addresses leak income None of these feel like a normal wallet. We fix that.

Amu Aigou 📚🪽 愛合あむ (@AigouAmu) reported@7hachikyuu The only issue with that is that they require payment be sent through a specific site (like I saw PayPay for one) and if they request PayPal I just can't do that because my account has been completely shut down and I have no way to fix it 💔
-
Casey Payne (@casey_Payne23) reported@BradWardFight @BERSERKER_THiiS Do you force peeps to use PayPal? That sorted my issues completely. Peeps can’t **** around. At least here
-
Desi Mac (@desimac13) reported@PayPal it is really hard to do something when you cannot get the technology to work right and there's no way to contact a real person.....and when you chat with someone they tell you the only way to do what you need is through the phone app, that is not working right.

StarchaserCollin🔞 (@StargazerCake23) reported@ApzApuru That's odd,it says permanent so i really hope you can transfer all the money you have to another PayPal account,this is just terrible and scumbag behavior to pull on someone whos TOS is clearly stated for commissions
-
✪Leslie✪ (@aWh1te_Cr0w) reportedsighhhssss..... i would do commissions ngl but 1) minor and i dont wanna mess with paypal while underage and 2) im terrible with keeping motivation but i also kinda wanna do commissions for royale high diamonds because i love royale high........
-
InternetHateMob (@InternetHateMob) reportedIt is amazing just how bad @PayPal customer service operates. The "AI Assistant" is terrible. I disputed a charge after the vendor gave me the runaround. And PayPal closed the dispute in favor of the seller? Based on what?
-
SGT SHTF (@Sucio03110331) reported@its_The_Dr It’s a civil problem though… case in point if I had a disagreement with a neighbor over money like this, for example: I bought something from him and accidentally PayPal him 10 grand instead of a 100 and he refused to return it, if I called the cops they’d tell me that it’s a civil matter and to take him to court so why is this any different?

SparkyisJack (@SparkyisJack) reported@H2gofrost @AskPayPal I put my age on one of my old accounts and it got immediately deactivated because I was technically underage. I wasn't able to fix it so I had to make a new account with different cards
