Paypal Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
ARTFONPRO (artfonpro.bsky.social) (@ArtFon1987) reported@LineGutter @Grummz If you're obviously putting "lewd porno drawing lol" or anything like that in the invoice, you're asking for trouble. But I can't help but wonder to what extent PayPal would ban artists from receiving commission money, even if they don't work on lewd stuff or keep it hush-hush.

Alex (@Jfreeg_) reported@fidexcode That’s a fair question. For companies like PayPal, it often comes down to regulations—some countries have strict financial laws, sanctions, or high fraud risks that make operating there complicated or risky. It’s frustrating for users, though, especially if you’re just trying to send or receive money. What’s your take on it?

『 Ukiyo 』 🫧⭐️💧 (@UFOkiyo) reportedI have a theory that they’re shutting down PayPal accounts specifically based in countries with weak currency.. I mean, PayPal is an American company. Can anyone confirm this with their own story? I’m just trying to figure out why.. (Thread/ramble.)

🍀 Bunny/Clover 🍀 (@imagibunny) reported@cosmica_candy i'm pretty sure paypal only does this if you do comms via a personal account and not a business one if you swtich it over to business there shouldn't be any problem but if you're getting a lot of money towards your personal then yeah it looks sketchy as hell
