Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
n a n i 🍺 (@naniSohrei) reportednow that @PayPal shut down my account, I can just not pay off my credit card right? that's how they wanna play?
-
Cheekie (@Cheekie_) reportedIsn't this as easy as just not telling Paypal what you're drawing? Just straight up sending money request to people would prevent this issue no? I might be wrong tho
-
Jasper ☆ comms open! (@gloomyjasper) reportedApparently taking payments for comms through PayPal from Ko-fi is NOT WORKING??? HELLO?? WTF. I'm new to Ko-fi in general but I don't think I'm gonna keep using it if I'm seeing other people having issues with it (along with myself) 😭😭
-
Mydia (@MydiaStardream) reportedIf you’re reading this and have a large amount of funds on Paypal, WITHDRAW THEM ASAP! Many people are reporting issues and Paypal closing their accounts out of the blue, attempting to keep the money for themselves (many of us cant afford a lawsuit to recover it) Scummy company
-
『 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.)
-
ArturoAthens (@ArturoAthens) reported@Mephistofleas I think Doom post is still valid because if more and more people spread the word, less people will use Paypal and Paypal doesn't want that. It will encourage them to fix or change it.
-
Momo 👓✨ | 🖋️💙 | Dokomi (@momo_mahou) reported@_itsharumi_ Hi! I'd love to preorder something from you as well, but im running into the same issue as someone else as i also only have paypal and no visa 🥹
-
ً (@mieyokism) reported@theRobbyXO hii, i used eximbay rather than paypal (there seems to be a glitch with it), you don’t need to sign up for an account, just put ur card details and the order should go through !
-
COMMISSIONS OPEN 🔞SparkieTheArtist🔞 (@Sparkie_Artist) reportedThe issue lies in the fact everyone and their mother uses paypal, and there is no other popular alternative that people uses. Internet people as a collective needs to come up with an alternative that atleast most people use.
-
SaintGhost (@RealSaintGhostq) reported@inkusumi @PlanZ34 I hate it when PayPal goes Christian (meaning they want to shut down NSFW artists because they don’t like titties)
-
rinky ✦ COMMS OPEN (@rinkilly) reportedFix priсе $75 • Comment or DM to claim • Payment via Lavatop(PayPal or credit card)
-
Myzidya (@Myzidya) reported@tn_daki Yes. They also can close down sellers who've things they don't like anywhere via any channel. For example one has a Paypal tip jar, and a separate nsfw website or socials page elsewhere with the same brand or company name. There's risk even if Paypal is not used with the latter.
-
Pyatochki (@loshara2010) reported@AvantRK whats with paypal? i know if people dont leave any comments under payment than there should not be problems? it changed?
-
rye 🪓 (@leonsoomf) reportedhas anybody else ever had issues w being double charged when paying a cmm invoice thru paypal :/
-
Haytham Kenway (@HaythamKen3486) reportedAlso I find some level of comedy in the fact that PayPal would rather go after adults paying for art of adult things, MADE BY OTHER ADULTS. And not the fact there platform has a rampant scammer problem, like I know of romance scammers using that service as recently as last year.
