  @AskPayPal @AskPayPal @PayPal I need urgent help. A US-based company is trying to send me a payment, but it was blocked with Error Code 14764. My card is fully confirmed, but I am located in Algeria, which might be triggering this compliance block. I cannot DM you. Could you please help me

  I really wish I could help Kei chan and other fellow artists get better equipment or at least help put some food on their tables. The problem is, I don't have credit card and my PayPal got freaking banned. I wonder if I could use other alternative?

  @treviastevia yeah I reach out to them, they thank me for this, and told me they will fix it (once I looked week after I saw they only removed paypal email from server response), not it looks like they fixed it, but oh well, damage was done.

  Yes, I think while Ubering in Houston the signal was given to me about Cash App. I think if you just bad it they could steal from you. The no service part seems really middle finger to their “users”. A lot of former workers they hired and now fired - likely had little expertise. Lots of firms, breaches and criticism. But who is it really for? Drug dealers. They know it. I think the k my real valuable thing was Square bc they got there hands on a patent or tech came out of Wash U in StL. You wan to use a credit card with fraud protection and zero fraud liability - for as many transactions as possible. Read this stuff / don’t send money to strangers. Like that’s their entire biz structure. Years this has been going on. Typical silicon start up / designed not to allow any criticism. - growth is only goal. But they are out do their element. And who need to send each other all them cash? Money laundering. eBay was PayPal - people bought stuff and pioneers the service and security and trust. That’s hard won experience and wisdom. Look who and how they market to. Problem is once brand takes off normal people think it’s as good as any other product / service. Nothing these **** firms do is for the customer. It’s just maximizing numbers and growth. They don’t get it - values - are just greed and lying and non disclosures and toxic everything.

  @Demura_Dusk 💯💯💯 It's disgusting how many bastards are out here filling their coffers off of the death, suffering, starvation and loss that the Palestinians have faced and are facing. Those people are the scum of all scum. Another problem with this is, they're already losing 25-35% off the top, depending on the rates at the exchange, where most of them collect their money from. Add that 20% on top, along with any other fees, like Stripe/Paypal, they are r3eceiving a very small percentage of their own funds, while having to pay exhorbtitant rates for food and daily living necessities.

  The Team Behind Newton Protocol Built The Wallet Infrastructure Powering Polymarket Magic Labs isn't new to onchain infrastructure at scale. 57 million wallets. 200,000+ developers. Embedded wallet technology that powers some of the highest-traffic consumer applications in crypto. Polymarket — the prediction market that became a cultural moment during the 2024 US election — runs on Magic Labs' wallet infrastructure. @newton_xyz is Magic Labs' next layer. The embedded wallet technology they built solved one specific problem: making wallet creation invisible to the end user. No seed phrase, no extension, no friction at the point where most onchain products lose people. PayPal Ventures backed that bet. Newton Protocol is a different kind of problem — not reducing friction for end users, but adding enforceable structure for the infrastructure layer underneath them. 57 million wallets moving value onchain eventually need authorization infrastructure. Those wallets interacting with DeFi vaults, RWA platforms, and institutional products need compliance layers that aren't just UI checkboxes. The core developer team that built scalable wallet infrastructure is now building the authorization layer that operates before those wallets settle transactions. There's a through line. Magic Labs spent years solving the problem of how to onboard users into onchain products without the experience breaking. Newton is now solving the problem of how to make the transactions those users initiate compliant, secure, and verifiable — without the experience breaking. The technical foundation is different. The design principle is the same. Friction belongs in the infrastructure, not in the user's path. $NEWT $BTC #Newt

  @AskPayPal @0am1n @askpaypal That is an AI system. There is no 'personalized' support there. I have the same issue.

  I think people are giving Phoebe Gates far less grace than they'd give almost any other first-time founder. Remember this is the same industry which is known for these dark patterns, like honey and no one here shamed the honey founders when they did it. Only a lawsuit was filed against PayPal which is the natural progression of things. Not to mention the whistleblower here was a direct competitor, Capital One so it's actually a big company bringing down a startup. Generally in such scenarios people support the startup but here it's the reverse. Its essentially that her last name has made this a much bigger story than it would have been for most founders. If Phia had been started by two unknown twenty-somethings, the conversation would probably be about a browser extension that crossed a line. Because one of the founders is Phoebe Gates, it quickly became a debate about her character. It's also easy to forget that she didn't simply inherit a company. Bill Gates didn't fund Phia. She and Sophia Kianni raised outside capital, built a team, launched a product, and convinced people to use it. Having famous parents can open doors, but it also means every mistake gets judged more harshly and every headline carries extra weight.

  @AskPayPal Thank you for your answers, I finally logged into my account thanks to a support (We think that the problem comes from Brave's Shield system, and that's why it was locked down under some security protocol).

  Attention those having problems with Restrictions & payouts & need solutions beyond Facebook's support team! 1. Did you know that you can contact the Consumer Federal Public Bureau and they will help you. If Meta claims they issued a payout to your bank, PayPal, or Stripe, but the funds are frozen, missing, or rejected, file a complaint against the payment company or bank via the CFPB Complaint Portal. If Meta is completely refusing to calculate, acknowledge, or clear your monetization earnings, the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) is the correct federal regulator. The FTC monitors deceptive business practices, breach of digital merchant contracts, and unfair treatment of independent creators. Take Action: Submit a formal business fraud report at the official FTC Report Fraud Portal State Attorney General: File a report with your state's Attorney General Consumer Protection Division. State AGs have dedicated teams that routinely force tech companies to assign real humans to investigate local creator complaints. Better Business Bureau (BBB): File an official complaint on the BBB Meta Platforms Profile. Meta maintains an active team on the BBB to resolve issues and protect their corporate rating, often resulting in direct contact

  Ripple's CEO just explained why XRP exists in under 2 minutes no jargon: Venmo can't send to PayPal, even though PayPal owns Venmo. That's how broken our payment networks are. Now scale that to sending money overseas: slow, expensive, and it can vanish for weeks. Ripple's fix: sell the tech to banks worldwide. 4 second settlement, fractions of a penny, anywhere on Earth. Customers don't care it runs on XRP. They just care that it works.
