Paypal Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Your Highness (@QueenLiaRegina) reportedIt’s interesting that fintech didn’t start out tight at women receiving money for nothing and calling it **********. Some of the established women still have no issue using Paypal or Stripe… but 0th3r$
-
MƈLιႦҽɾTҽα (@McLiberTea) reported.@PayPal needs to FIX THIS! 😠

Sam Badawi (@Sam_Badawi) reportedThis is extremely bullish for $PYPL. In fact, it is screaming bullish. BUT (a big but), the only issue is the price. Both fundamentals and technicals need to align for the stock to truly recover. Today, the market would rather pay 156x forward earnings for $MRVL than 8x forward earnings and 1x sales for PayPal. I don't make the rules, I just play the game.

Old before my time (@wokeupold2day) reported@marknoble @grok Yeah I had paypal 15 years ago. Tell me again the problem that crypto solves?

Artist in residence (@artyfarty75) reported@wariocolosseum Musk was born in 1971. He first appeared on the Forbes Billionaires List in 2012 (around age 41) with ~$2 billion net worth.  He made significant money earlier: ~$180 million from the PayPal sale in 2002 (age ~31), but it took further successes with Tesla and SpaceX for him to solidly reach billionaire status. The “40 years” rounds up from birth but overlooks that meaningful wealth accumulation accelerated in his 30s–40s through entrepreneurship, not a slow linear grind.  Now he is making $1 BILLION every 15 minutes from SpaceX stock moves alone.”Exaggerated but directionally illustrative of recent volatility. Musk’s net worth hit ~$1.3 trillion as of June 17, 2026. This is paper wealth tied to stock price fluctuations, not realized cash income. It can (and does) go down. This post reflects the polarised online discourse from people spreading misinformation or partial truths, exaggerated by the misinformed.

Mr.Paul (@shravanrayhaan) reported@WillBiddy_ True. I guess in adobe vs paypal vs meta it all boils down to opportunity cost.

Jerry Beaird (@JerryBeaird2) reportedBy the year 2022 PayPal had shut down 4.5 million accounts.
-
Jean-Philippe Lebœuf (@jpleboeuf) reportedTried moving money out of PayPal Business. Even Gemini 3.5 Flash Extended couldn’t explain it after a long back-and-forth, even with full access to PayPal docs and Reddit. PayPal, your documentation and UX are broken: if an LLM cannot get it, regular users have zero chance.

Karmagyaru (@karmagyaru) reported@gelleytoast I used PayPal for comms and didn't had any problem (besides the obligatory national tax even for clients tips) i waited 3 days for the money transference to another bank account

6ɪx✦ (@ok6ixx) reportedmy grandma has been lying about not knowing how to use her phone for THREE YEARS. every time we visited she'd hand it to me like a helpless baby and say "sweetheart i don't understand this thing." i'd fix whatever and feel like a good grandson. last month my cousin caught her on a facebook live selling handmade quilts to 847 people with ring lighting and a PayPal link in the comments. she has a whole persona. her name is "Grandma Betty Stitches" and she has more followers than me. she looked at my cousin and said "don't tell the boys, they like feeling useful."

Schnurzpiepe 🛝🍉 (@Schnurzpiepe420) reported@Colour_awr @_VGen_ @PayPal Vgen literally tells you to issue a charge back via PayPal when you have any problems with your commission

Safety Second! 🏋️ (@1HeavySigh) reportedPayPal: We recognize you on this device. PP (seconds later): fill in the secret code we will text you. Also PP (seconds after): please check your email for a secret code. You didn’t really recognize me then, did you, PP? It’s okay, I get it. I’m terrible with names, too.
