  I’ve been trying to link my m-Faisaa to PayPal since June 18. Despite multiple support tickets with @OoredooMaldives , nothing was resolved. The issue was simple: m-Faisaa only had 2 name fields while PayPal requires 3, causing a name mismatch. I raised it at the Finance Expo on July 2, and it was fixed within 15 minutes. Now I’m waiting for USD deposits to my personal account, while USD merchant receiving is still pending not helpful for real businesses. Poor customer support delayed a simple fix for weeks.

  📂 NoBSFounder Case Files #025 The Feature PayPal Refused to Build In the early 2000s, PayPal had millions of users sending and receiving money online. As the company grew, customers requested more features. Loans. Investments. Insurance. Budgeting tools. Many fintech companies eventually expanded into all of them. The Decision PayPal chose a different path. It spent years focusing on one thing: Making online payments trusted, fast, and widely accepted. Instead of becoming a financial supermarket overnight, it doubled down on building trust with merchants, consumers, and developers. What Happened? That focus helped PayPal become the default online payment option for millions of businesses worldwide. By the end of 2024, PayPal had 434 million active accounts and processed $1.68 trillion in total payment volume. 🧠 NoBSFounder Lesson Every feature has an opportunity cost. When you say "yes" to one feature, you're saying "no" to improving something else. Great founders don't win because they build everything. They win because they're disciplined about what they leave out. Sources: PayPal Annual Report 2024, PayPal Investor Relations, PayPal SEC Filings.

  Interesting vulnerability in PayPal's @PayPal login flow: If your account uses 2FA and you login, you now get prompted if you'd like to use a Passkey, but when you decline that and close the prompt, it bypasses the 2FA entirely and logs you straight in.

  @AskPayPal Your too late issue handled. btw that was not the solution. I needed a phone call. To attain excellent customer service you need to step it up big time. Or get out of the way and close your doors as just another business that sucks. Being the first often means the worst.

  You can guess what students did on that final Tuesday. Fast forward to the end of the semester: I still hadn't seen any documentation or user manual, and it was due on exam day (the first day of finals week). A week before the deadline, they told me I'd have it before our 12 PM meeting on study day (Wednesday). I got the email at 11 PM Tuesday after work. I opened the files, got pissed, shut my laptop, played some Xbox, and passed out before midnight. The technical documentation was just one page with almost nothing useful—no database schema, website languages, PayPal details, or registered emails. Just the URL and some unimportant info taking up half a page. The user manual was one and a half pages with maybe five sentences and three pictures with arrows. Zero real explanation on how to use the site.I showed up at 12 PM and waited about five minutes. No one else was there, so I texted the group. No replies. I started fixing the user manual since I'd clearly have to redo it. While working quietly, Damien finally walked in. D: "Did you get the docs?" Me: "Yeah. You guys really think this is finished?" D: "Oh yeah, it should be good to turn in." Me: "I don't know. I think we should add more—this is for our client, and she won't understand it. Where are Jeff and Kirk?" D: "Hahaha, we all got messed up last night after finishing the docs. They're probably still passed out. I'm turning it in tomorrow. If you want to add anything, go ahead, but whatever I have is going in. I think it's ready, so I'm not doing more. I have other classes to study for. I already have an A in this class, and Kirk and Jeff do too, so they don't care."He said the magic words, then left with a flash drive. I went straight upstairs and told Professor Matt everything. I said I didn't want to leave my client hanging—yes, my client, not ours. Matt said he fully understood and even praised me for staying on top of it and protecting the client's experience with our students. He asked why. I told him, "What you're getting tomorrow for 'our' project is completely unacceptable. It's unfair to us and especially to our client." I showed him the website (which he liked) and the terrible docs. I asked for an extra week to finish proper documentation and a user guide—I had a clear plan. Matt agreed, but told me to forget the docs since I knew the site. Just focus on the client .So I created video tutorials with narration, drove to her shop to demonstrate everything and show her where the videos were. I even built a simple desktop program with buttons that opened the exact video she needed, so she wouldn't have to hunt through folders. I gave her my contact info and said I'd be around over the summer if she needed help with the site or anything else. Afterward, I updated Matt, who had his own update. He nearly failed the rest of the group because they slid an unmarked USB under his door. He only accepted it after they emailed to confirm he got it. Matt also called the client, who confirmed I was the only one who ever showed up to meetings. As a result, anyone in my group who had an A going into the project dropped to a C. Anyone with a B failed. Damien's GPA took a hit from this four-hour class. Kirk and Jeff both failed—Jeff couldn't graduate, and Kirk had to retake it next semester. My grade, which was an 84 before the project, jumped to an A. The next year, Damien asked how I did because he was confused about his own final grade. I just said I did fine and got an A. He still has no idea why. Don't mess with me and my grades, and I won't mess with you.

  The PayPal money was gone. $180M down to almost nothing in a handful of years. Most founders would've folded, declared bankruptcy, walked away, started fresh. Instead, Elon did something that looked completely insane:

  Polymarket is now facing a lawsuit that could nuke the entire $POLY narrative and almost nobody is pricing it in I lost money on this platform too so this one is personal, every YES holder in the MSTR market deserves full payout and here is why that is the only fair outcome The facts from the court filing, index 158389/2026, NY Supreme Court, filed July 3 Strategy filed an official 8K with the SEC showing 32 BTC sold before May 31, the exact resolution source the market rules named Polymarket then posted a new rule AFTER the fact, adding a confirmed by deadline requirement that never existed when traders bought in, and resolved NO Their own help docs say the order book gets cleared when a clarification drops, that never happened, the market kept trading live while insiders knew the rule had changed 1,868 traders lost 6.5M total, top holder @willo2_Poly alone lost 500K for being factually correct Now the part nobody is talking about The filing exposes that the Panama entity is an unstaffed shell, with real operations at 530 Broadway NYC, meaning US consumer protection law under GBL 349 and 350 applies directly It also alleges 350K routed through the CMO personal PayPal to pay creators for undisclosed promotions, which opens a second regulatory front entirely Why this is a nightmare for $POLY A prediction market only has one product, trust that being right gets paid If courts confirm the platform can rewrite rules after the answer is known, every open market becomes a liability, market makers widen or leave, volume dies, and volume is the entire valuation thesis behind the token Discovery will force internal comms about who drafted the clarification and why, that risk alone freezes institutional money Paying out 6.5M today is pocket change next to a token launch built on broken credibility Make the YES holders whole, it is cheaper than losing the court case and the narrative at the same time

  @BellaDonnelly @GeachRosie24704 @belladonelly Hi , I think Rosie needs to down load the PayPal app. She needs to know how to donate from UK. I think she is trying to donate by sending on my email address. Not sure, difficult to work out but I think she is going to send a cheque. Thanks Bella,

  This product has only 1 follower on IndieHackers — but the founder says it makes $3,000/month. It’s called iptvsubscription. A solo dev from India sells IPTV subscriptions (live TV over internet) for ~$10/month. No fancy tech, no big team. Just a simple reseller model. Here’s exactly how it works: • He buys bulk access from upstream IPTV providers (wholesale). • He resells individual accounts to end users at a markup. • Users get a login to watch hundreds of channels on any device. Costs are low — no servers, no infrastructure. The hard parts: • Competition is brutal. Price wars everywhere. He survives by focusing on stability (no buffering, no downtime). • Legal gray area. IPTV often involves unlicensed content. Small fish usually fly under the radar, but risk grows with scale. • Customer support is 24/7. Users expect instant help when streams break. His trust-building tactics: • Free trials first — let users test for a few days before paying. • Uses PayPal for payments, adding a layer of buyer protection. Is this for you? Barrier to entry is low. You don’t need coding skills — just find a reliable upstream supplier and learn to acquire customers. But the real challenge is trust in a scam-heavy niche. Caveat: The $3k/month is self-reported on IndieHackers, unverified. The product page is bare bones — just a line saying “because we want to provide the best service.” Still, it’s a reminder: you don’t need a flashy product. Find a small, specific need. Serve it consistently. That can be enough. Follow for more real AI money breakdowns. #IndieHackers #SideHustle
