  • Magra215 🔞Magra 🔞 (@Magra215) reported

    @MagicalMysticVA I think the main problem is that, SubStar doesn't use paypal or any of the more common payment processors, which makes sense, but it's a huge inconvenience to deal with.

    @UPS website and app are not working. It gives error “the payment card information can’t be processed” even tried PayPal. Super frustrating it takes ages to fill out all the info to get to the payment section, I don’t want to do it over and over. Not working on my phone or laptop

    @uvas23 @ShervinD @Pledditor Buying tops and selling bottoms was easy. Bitcoin was heavily advertised in June 2011. Hex has no ads on mainstream. Bitcoin went down in its first bear with PayPal fees not on chain 96.3%. So to be fair. It did worst.

  • Galaxt1ka 🌌 GΛLΛXƬ1KΛ 🌌 (@Galaxt1ka) reported

    @OfficialMr_Tib @GenshinImpact @PlayStation That's basically what's going to happen to me. Any and every time I've ever had issues with fraudulent charges, it's always been through PayPal. I just hope it won't be an IP ban so I can make another account. I refuse to pay for something I didn't authorize.

    My first draft was complete in September, so I was done with BeenVerified by August but was unable to sign in. They said they didn't see any cancel requests. Lol right, cuz I wasn't able sign in! Tried to stop payments thru paypal at my bank but been charged 6 mos./$160.

  • MichaelDinich Michael Dinich (@MichaelDinich) reported

    PSA: if you own a small business do not use @paypal!!! Get a CC or debit card at a real bank where if you need to dispute problems you can talk to a real person. I just lost $800 being charged multiple times by for the same service and @AskPayPal was no help

  • bholaktw2010 Lokenath Kundu (@bholaktw2010) reported

    @CourseHero @PayPal @consumerforum_ Today I tried to withdraw around 24usd from coursehero. Technical problem and refresh the page massage pop up. Neither the amount credited to my paypal account nor revert back. Contacted coursehero support teay. No response. Kindly help

  • Malcolm_Teller Malcolm Teller (@Malcolm_Teller) reported

    @AskPayPal No. I don't have a Twitter account associated with my name. And I'm not signing up with my name. Sort your website out, a broken service with no native support essentially makes PayPal a credit predator.

  • shoottheducks Tim (@shoottheducks) reported

    @AskeBay Yes, but the issue is that this is a non-delivery item and apparently not covered. The seller took payment using paypal, is sending abusive messages and accusing me of fraud, and trying to get me to send additional money outside Ebay. The message transcript is astonishing.

  • lifesagame John Christian (@lifesagame) reported

    @Lovrofnature @MiguelANunezJr @DylanOgline After the merger Musk worked on buying a bank. When he stepped down they abandoned his banking plans and the purchased and leveraged continuity's P2P payment system into PayPal. What did Musk invent?

  • mewvore Jo Mama 🏳️‍⚧️🐈 (@mewvore) reported

    @irritated_nick They updated it so that you have to go through Google Play and subscribe that way. It still takes paypal through there. The issue I was having seems to be with some old files still in the app. It worked after uninstalling, clearing the cache, etc etc

  • angelaxgoddess Goddess Angela (@angelaxgoddess) reported

  • RealMaiWaifu RealMaiWaifu (@RealMaiWaifu) reported

    @Bambin974 @UbisoftSupport Use paypal. I ALWAYS have issues when using Debit or credit card but paypal works fine.

  • Malcolm_Teller Malcolm Teller (@Malcolm_Teller) reported

    @AskPayPal If you understood my concern you'd report to the relevant party the issues with the PayPal website and you wouldn't be asking me to do something I just told you I won't be doing, aaaaand go **** yourself

  • Fancy22912468 guyguy_me (@Fancy22912468) reported

    @babygyalxxxx Can we address the PayPal issue?

  • Freshstart871 Freshstart87 (@Freshstart871) reported

    Sigh. When only one of your payment options work. Thanks PayPal for clearing up the issue with my account. At least that works.

  • politicoder lee ❄️ (@politicoder) reported

    @the_transit_guy PayPal. exists only because it was difficult to use credit cards online in the 90s. we fixed that problem and now its main purpose is being an easy attack vector for scams and identity theft
