  @PayPal is literally a scam! Why would anyone use this company? If you need help, they will just leave you to rot on hold as they think they can wear you down.

  @PayPal The fact that you have a link for help but the WORST Customer Service is beyond comical, your service blocks and restricts accounts on simple transcribe but allows 1000's of purchases with no limitations, trying to resolve issues is useless with this service

  @sightONsound @kenwheeler No problem: he started w/ the lavish, obscene sum of <checks notes> $28k from his dad to cover expenses for Zip2, which he built into a $307M cash + $22M stock acquisition by Compaq. He then reinvested every penny into PayPal, Tesla, & SpaceX, nearly going bankrupt in the process

  @ibuycompounders @ftr_investors You can say the same about PayPal (painpal), the problem is, they are fundamentally strong now but things could change fast of they can't come up with better solutions compare to their competitors

  @IslingtonChap He invented Tesla, PayPal, spaceEx, Starlink. What’s broken about that?

  @PayPal @AskPayPal I have been having many problems with my dispute and appeal which got denied against a seller using a tracking number scam. I am informing in different channels that I will be placing a complaint with the BBB and CFPB, and possibly a US Attorney.

  @steady_profits It's paypal. They should pay a FAT dividend and wind down and slowly as they can before being acquired.

  Sorry to every self help account on X giving the cliched startup advice "never give up" today because Elon became the world's first trillionaire. Short version: not everyone is Elon Musk after PayPal, and not everyone should stick with a failing startup/product/model no matter what! Long version:The real lesson is more complicated than the cliche "never give up", which is terrible advice. Sometimes, taking feedback and advice from others is important. At other times, you should ignore the advice of others. The key is to know when to listen and when to be stubborn. Often, giving up on a startup that's failing is the best thing you can do for your mental and financial health. I know founders who suffered both mental and financial problems by "not giving up" when it was clear that their idea wasn't going to work, and they simply delayed their failure (making it worse!. Other times, when you are clear minded about the reasons why things are failing, you can make adjustments and get past the failures to success, like Elon did. But I hate to be the one to break it to you: not everyone is Elon musk and not everyone has made hundreds of million of dollars from their previous startups that they can keep going when things aren't working. Question 1: is the market fundamentally sound (I.e. if you eventually build it right, will people buy i?t). Or are there structural reasons why the market is early and it will catch up to you? Question 2: are there sound science/engineering reasons why the product can work if you keep going? If answer to both is yes, keep going. If not, pivot to something else or give up. For more on why cliches don't work in startups, read my book Startup Myths and Models: What You Won't Learn Business School 🔗 👇🏽

  SpaceX, 2008. Down to one final attempt with Falcon 1 before the money was gone. On Sept 28, 2008 it was a success. The first rocket to orbit the earth from a private space agency. What the whining critics also forget is that when he sold Zip2 he poured that money into PayPal & when he sold PayPal he poured that money into Tesla & SpaceX. Whiners accomplish nothing. They are like gnats, a mere nuisance. The pure idiocy of folks mocking him validates a timeless axiom: 🔽 “Envy is the language of the lazy”. 🤝

  @YodaStockInvest I like software but adbe ER response didn’t help. The market is a popularity contest now more than ever. Until a serious rotation starts happening, Im just watching. Paypal went down w great financials. I think its good for long term, but if youre active, just wait for breakout

  @ShezSonialynn @Beinomugisha_ They don’t work, even on any online platform where they ask for identification. I only use driver’s license or passport. The new identification card doesn’t work. You end up being suspended, the likes of PayPal, Payoneer, Upwork, etc. It’s a very serious issue!
