ZOMBΔE 🫦🐙 (@zombaebby) reported@CalamareiVT I guarantee they are just not following their laws vs the PP TOS and just skipping steps. I’m just sick of people hating so much on PayPal, I have never had a single issue with them!

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.
-
Edgex (@SahilExec) reportedNeed help from creators. 👇@paypal I'm creating a PayPal account. The problem is that all my government IDs have only my first name (no surname), but PayPal requires a last name. If you've faced this before, what did you enter, and did verification go through?
-
DragonKnight15 (@DragonKnight_15) reported@hikariviny I hate to disappoint you but this also affects your bank account. Someone else told me they had this problem so badly that Paypal was able to BLOCK his bank account. He had to fix that problem and that's a nightmare. Don't defend Paypal.

Noc Noc (@NocturnePurple) reportedHi, I’m writing to let you know there’s an issue with my PayPal. Please give me a few days to sort this out, and then I’ll be accepting orders as usual. To those who have already placed orders: don’t worry, I’ll still fulfill them (+)
-
Jesse Belcher (@ZornNThorn) reported@Icerzzxx @PredAlerter Lol. It's not about them getting in trouble and off the streets.. It's about these guys luring people to a meet where they outnumber them and they can smack em around and seem like heros to the low IQ. While they're back home checking their PayPal account and counting all the donations. The Peds they 'caught' are back home creeping on kids lol. Wtf did they do other than entertain you and take your money?
-
Claudia 🌸💖💜 (@buzani1) reported@Mybtsstanacct1 Same!!! 😭 It’s so annoying! They should give at least 2 min to finish transaction once it’s in your cart, like they do concert tix! PayPal has NEVER asked me to sign in whenever I purchase anything from Weverse! And all of sudden today I had to sign in! 😭

.°•☆✨Starly! (Hiatus) 🌱🌙🍄🇻🇪 (@DrStarline) reportedI think the real problem is that the other alternatives aren't as available world-wide as paypal is if they were, I'm 100% sure paypal wouldn't be as popular as it is right now. Everyone uses it bcus it's accepted in a bunch of countries, way more than the other alternatives

Shadowriver@VRC (@ShadowriverVR) reportedMy number 1 advice to anyone doing service (commissions counts as service) or selling things (aka running business), first thing you should absolutely do is check your local laws and regulation regarding earning money yourself (aka running business, but not only that, patrion and gifts too, and selling things you own), every country has those (taxes is how counties is keep things running), because if you not following them, paypal closing your account is least thing that can go bad for you, actual banks are even under more stricter rules then that and public institutions find about about they be knocking to your doors. PayPal is not doing it to upset you, they do that because they would be in big trouble if they didn't do it. I heared a lot of stories like that even when i was in school, people getting to trouble because they started selling things, because lot of them are not aware of those because if you have normal work, lot of those obligations and dealing with this stuff usually falls down to your employer (atleast that they case in Poland). And yes it sucks, in most cases is reason why business owners and corporationare more angry about taxes and law changes, then most people are because they the one who usually need to deal with it for you when they employ you and you don't never see money was taken from you... welcome to this side of world, now you know why they are so on edge. Business is always a risk and it comes with extra obligations and costs, if you plan to do it you need to make sure you on stable ground and plan things ahead, make sure what you doing let you effort it before going all out. Even if laws don't make you pay taxes, in most cases you likely required to at least raport income anyway, even you not running business. This also means check licences and ToS of services you using to run business and anything commercial, because if you do business there usually different rules on those for you then of using those products and services. Also in case of PayPal, if you being payed for service make sure your client pick payment service not family and friends, or send them paypal invoice which is safest option as it does that automaticly. PayPal requires you to pay them fee for using there services for commercial use, they will ban you if they find out you avoid that.
