  @CHP_HQ Can anyone from your organization go down to San Jose and speak with PayPal? This company is literally robbing Americans blind! Can anyone in your org explain why they do not require photo ID before opening an account or how they can send money 10X cheaper than West Union

  @comikawen @PayPal I really hope it helps you! It did help me at the time and never had the same problem again! Let me know if it didn't help and I'll search for another video!

  Everyone's talking about fully automating their ad accounts with AI. I think that's a mistake. Here's why. When PayPal was getting destroyed by fraud in the early days, they had a hacker named Igor who kept breaking through. They tried full automation to stop him. It didn't work. Actually caused more problems. So they tested something different. Algorithm plus human. AI flagged the patterns. Humans made the calls. That combination is what eventually became Palantir. One of the biggest AI companies in the world. And they still use that same model today. AI with human workflow. And that makes sense if you think about it. If everyone has access to the same AI tools and everyone automates the same way, that just becomes the floor. The baseline. The minimum. So where does the edge come from? Not from automating everything. From automating the right pinch points and keeping humans in the loop for the decisions that actually matter. I built a creative analysis tool that pulls 90 days of ad data, transcribes videos, generates scene notes, and maps performance to patterns. That used to take 6 hours manually. Now it runs in the background in 15 to 50 minutes. But I still sit down and interpret it. I still make the calls on what to test next. The AI compresses the grunt work. The human finds the alpha. Everyone's racing to remove themselves from the process entirely. I'm racing to stay in it. Just at a higher level.

  So @PayPalUK @PayPal have let a scammer who was able to infiltrate their system including SMS to take 797£ out of my nominated bank account. I have tried three times to raise the case and each time they say it’s a legitimate transaction. Terrible service from @PayPalUK

  @decoplum18 @PayPal Im sorry 😭i unfortunately also went through this too randomly with no warning 0 chargebacks or issues my account it was always in good standing so took me by surprise. I contacted them endlessly but they said they couldn’t share their reasoning with me and was no reversing it..

  @PayPal Very hard time receiving customer service on receiving payment in limbo. Talked online to your agent, was unable to help. Suggested I call in - still waiting. 2.5 hours into solving this issue... may be just easier to not use Paypal in the future.

  FedEx won’t let me pay a duty… it keeps saying error when I try to use PayPal and when I put my card info in it says it’s wrong… is it because it’s a debit card and not a credit card? I don’t have a credit card, what do I look like, a functioning member of society???

  Grok answer when I ask how to use Paypal to go Premium on X: - "Some users in regions with card issues use virtual/prepaid cards or other local methods." Me thinking: - "As a company ran by a Paypal co-founder, what do you mean? He's talking about setting up a colony on Mars!"

  @esbellesantos I was using PayPal for awhile but switched to using Stripe. For new accounts there is a 7 day hold so they confirm your bank info. But I haven't had any problems with it.
