  • PinkPandaKatie Katie the Pink Panda (@PinkPandaKatie) reported

    @Megacherv They are definitely the worst. My bank had no issues changing it other than the teller being unfamiliar with the process. My credit card company resolved my ticket within two hours and issued a new card. I ended up just creating a new Paypal account.

    @danniew9 @reinout90 someone managed to use the PayPal link to find my private email address so I shut it down. I don't have any system for one-time donations right now. if you want, you can back on Patreon and cancel after a month. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    @Allen_Codz @TechProd_Arch @theflutterwave Claiming you live in Lesotho while you don't is a potential source of trouble that could be exploited at any time especially if your business grows big. Meanwhile the big question we should be asking is why PayPal have excluded Nigerians and many other African countries ...

    @denniswage @AskPayPal Guess I'll go organize my sock and underwear drawer while I wait for @PayPal 's extremely slow servers to send me a tiny file.

  • bonbonboxes Sapph (@bonbonboxes) reported

    On that note, I've been reading up as much as I can on Paypal invoices and how to avoid trouble for digital art commissions, but does anyone have any other resources that might be helpful? The last time I did commissions I used Etsy so it's a lil bit scary for me haha ;w;

    Someone ask @ElonMusk to buy back @PayPal and turn that ship around. Because cryptocurrencies are less trouble than @PayPal, and guess which one Starbucks will be accepting soon? #cryptocurrency

  • Dishsport_news Andrew Allen (@Dishsport_news) reported

    @AskPayPal You have caused a damage in my life and because of you I’ve lost my business. My money got locked up in PayPal since last year and for me to get my money back in to my personal account is now a problem. I’ve submitted a request for change for change of name.

  • Allen_Codz Allen's Wrld (@Allen_Codz) reported

    @chikeaneke @TechProd_Arch @theflutterwave I don't really use PayPal for business, I have an individual account that I use for freelancing. So that is not really my problem.

  • MagicDonnie Donnie Yeoman Jr (@MagicDonnie) reported

    Bank at @BBT ? Check your account for missing money. Bank says there’s a glitch with credit transfers to cards such as PayPal transfers. If I hadn’t been watching, $693.00 would be gone. Check your accounts!

    @AskPayPal I'm having problems receiving a refunds. The merchant has sent me the refund confirmation but I still cant see it. Who can help me?

  • wardrox John 🌈 (@wardrox) reported

    @LouDowne PayPal's founders like to tell the story of how in the early days they were running such a **** show, they just disconnected the helpline so they could grow faster. I don't think they've ever really tried to fix that because hurting people doesn't cost them money.

  • sparky_ebooks Sparky ebooks (@sparky_ebooks) reported

    Paypal had errors while sending my internet payment, but I'll just go to the bank instead and get that over with

    @JinxieSkye @Rbjacobs Hi there, my wife has the same “Hard hold on account” issue when withdrawing. She sent her FICA docs to paypal a few weeks back, they said it has been approved. Should she sent it to the email you mentioned above as well?
