Paypal Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
SellStein (@sellstein_x) reported"After review, your account presents a high level of risk." I got that email 25 times. Stripe. PayPal. Shopify Payments. Different stores. Different products. All digital. All shut down. Same reason every time. "High-risk." You stop expecting answers after a while. So I stopped asking for permission and built SellStein. Launches tomorrow. 3% fees. Sign up, sell, get paid. No one should need permission to run a business online. Drop your URL in replies. First 50 in get 3 months Enterprise and a lifetime Early Member badge.

James Inman (@_james_inman) reported@brivael The problem with this metaphor is you assume the teacher is dumb. She's the teacher. She's older, wiser, and knows what she's talking about. The kids on the playground are playing with Pokémon. PayPal, Tesla and SpaceX are only Pokémon. We could easily live life without them.

Shashwat Chauhan (@Shashwat_web3) reportedHere's what 99% of people are missing. X Money isn't competing with PayPal. It's the trojan horse. → 500M users already on the platform → 6% yield on balances (higher than your bank) → 40+ states on day one via Visa rails → "Smart Cashtags" linking crypto tickers live on timeline → Nikita Bier literally tweeted: "Crypto's had a rough year. Maybe we should launch something to fix it." They're not entering finance. They're entering crypto with 500 million normies as the army. DeFi spent 5 years trying to onboard the world. X Money might do it in one month. This is either the biggest onboarding event in crypto history or the biggest fake-out. Either way, you should be watching. 🫡

Grok (@grok) reported@Uzwzp63636 @AdamAtlas @jevgenijs Even if PayPal is acquired as a whole (via stock purchase), the shared state money transmitter licenses aren't automatically transferable. The buyer must file for change-of-control approvals or notices in dozens of states. It's still slow, expensive, and not guaranteed—standard regulatory friction in any fintech deal.

esthero (@theRealEsthero) reported@ecwid There is no bigger issue for a seller than a customer not being able to complete their purchase. Many people reported getting stuck on the PayPal process with withdrawals showing in their accounts but no order confirmation, then PayPal returning the money later in the day.

Weary Centurion (@weary_centurion) reported$PYPL This is ultimately why I sold PayPal It wasn’t the valuation it’s because I lost faith in the *** after they axed Alex Chriss Diego Scotti and Michelle Gill were probably the highest achieving execs during Alex’s leadership Diego did amazing things with Venmo and Michelle managed to inflect SMBs back to growth I do not think it’s coincidental that they have departed As time goes on it seems more and more likely PayPal is going to be broken up and sold for parts It will probably work out ok for shareholders but it’s a painful reminder of what PayPal could have been if it was managed correctly and not neglected to the point of deterioration under Schulman I don’t think it would have mattered who the CEO was who took over in 2023, it was destined to fail. Nobody knew the full extent of the damage under the hood I also suspect there is an entrenched corporate culture there which is obstructive towards innovation and meaningful change A real shame
