  @Wario64 For anyone looking to make any last minute purchases on the PS3 before its store closes down you need to redeem digital codes. You can no longer use your credit cards, paypal, etc. for the PS3 store.

  HALF PRICE BROOKLYN N5 TICKET🚨 (originally bought on resale) I’m still trying to sell this ticket and I’m dropping it down to half the price i bought it for! Down from $1095 to $550 + paypal g&s plus rate conversion fee (to australian dollars). You would have to meet me at Barclays so I can let you into the venue because my australian TM account is having issues transferring tickets. I think this would be a good opportunity to meet people as I’m not from here either! Please only reach out if you are fully aware of the seat location and price and process. I’m not dropping down any further x.

  My Twitch account was hacked. I don't know how. I don't know how it is possible payment information was changed after 4-5 years of the same payment information. No confirmation email from Twitch about payout method being changed. For the past 5 years as a creator on Twitch I have always received my payouts early. I recently changed my password on Twitch as well via the correct links sent by Twitch staff themselves (yes I know it was authentic as it was about getting a refund and I did receive the refund). I log in today to make sure there is not some sort of issue with the account, payment information needing to be reverified, a tax form, or something else holding up this months payment. I go to review my payment information, which requires 2 factor authentication btw, and the information looks fine until page 2 out of 3. My payout method had been changed to Paypal and an unknown email (10000% do not know or even heard of this email) for the paypal account. I changed the payout immediately. I reset all my connections with Twitch. I also checked my Twitch email. It was my email. My account email still tied to my account. Yet, no emails confirming payout changes, no alerts, nothing. I do not know how I got hacked. I don't know if it was third party. I have been in the IT field for years and consistently am looking out for phishing and scams. However this did happen and I now have a missing $900 and negative funds in my bank. I already reported this to Twitch and am working on reporting the account to PayPal as I type this. But I really 100% believe there needs to be email notifications sent out for any financial information changed on all platforms. I am still appalled that a system like that is not in place for a website associated with Amazon and functions as an employer to pay so many people on the platform. Where are the security protocols? Or just some IT 101 practices from companies. There is no excuse in 2026 to not have confirmation/authorization/notification emails for payout or financial details being changed. Stay safe.

  @ilbomberazzurro @UberEats @ubereats_uk I’ve just had this same exact issue as you. I’ve filed a dispute through PayPal and cancelled my uber one account. I’ve never known such awful customer service. Being looped round in a chat with an AI bot. Shocking when my issue involves their driver potentially stealing my order

  @Joeynator3000 My issue is it will probably be yet another PayPal where they ban you for wrongthink and steal your money.

  @alihadad90 @PayPal @AnthropicAI Anthropic AI supports Libya and accepts payments from Libyan cards (at least my ATIB mastercard). Paypal is a different issue. But I speculate that they need a well-regulated environment and strong judicial system to operate. Today, both are shaky.

  saw the Stripe/PayPal headlines earlier this week, but didn’t really double-click into what the deal could mean for fintech more broadly thought the @theallinpod did a great job breaking it down on this week's episode some interesting points: this would be a quick way for Stripe to get access to 400M+ consumer accounts I didn’t realize Block was also in the mix.. combine their point-of-sale network with Stripes merchants, Cash App, Venmo, Braintree, etc. and all of a sudden you have nearly the entire payments stack put all of that on stablecoin rails and you could have a real competitor to Visa and Mastercard (Stripe closed their acquisition of Bridge in 2025) if more payments stay within that network, merchants could save a lot on fees and some of that could eventually make its way to consumers they also drew an interesting parallel to newer, AI-native teams buying huge internet businesses that have stalled and trying to bring them back to life, similar to what Bending Spoons has done $PYPL is down 80%+ from its 2021 peak, and even @DavidSacks (PayPal mafia) joked that the product looks almost the same as it did when he was there 20+ years ago link to the pod below

  Hello @AskPayPal. My PayPal account was recently permanently limited because it was reportedly linked to another account with unresolved issues. I believe this may relate to an old account I created years ago but never really used. I respectfully request a manual review of my cas

  @TIM_x_AI @MarsUniversityX No. Software engineer / Physicist turned billionaire entrepreneur, can you think of any other people that have gone down that route? He made his money via founding zip2 and co-founding PayPal.

  @AskPayPal @AskPayPal @pay I called, but no representative answers. It’s been two weeks, and no one can help me. I need an email address to escalate my issue, please. None of the previous options work
