    @QueueBypass @ukicai_ There’s no issue. He wants to avoid taxes. That’s not a fee charged by PayPal. It’s the cost of conducting business in the world. He doesn’t have to report it, that’s not on me or PayPal.

  • HatakeEv 💫Evixx(Busy✨)🧸🔪 (@HatakeEv) reported

    @_bilaaat My post says my available stuff+ how much usd for those? And I can give the other payment options if u have trouble with PayPal

  • polo_gibson Polo Gibson (@polo_gibson) reported

    @Facebook Some used my facebook account to send $1600in PayPal payments and facebook gift cards they also changed my login. I want a refund now !!! And access to my account

  • LilMissKae Queen Kae 💋 (@LilMissKae) reported

    @EmeraldGrey82 @popsrustyhangd1 A big problem on the payment method side is one I face. Canada only has PayPal. Any other apps can’t be downloaded or setup here because they require US payment methods, addresses etc. But communication IS mandatory. If they can’t come trust me it’s best you knew early

  • LyssaD0LL Alyssa (@LyssaD0LL) reported

    @evelynzam11 Dude I was on there for a while too and tried my PayPal as well but it kept saying that there was an error. I got into the site right away and I was trying different cards and they ended up being sold out by the 5th time 😢

    @san_nimat @stockx Got jordans, I was sold a fake as well as the shoe coming with several issues to question authenticity e.g. laces unravelled and not fixable. They claimed it as genuine n offered £10. PayPal refunded me. They blocked me from their site. Pls everyone Avoid stockx

  • cain_wtf Ⓐ 𝐆𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐜𝐡 ⚫_🔴 (@cain_wtf) reported

    @MONIQUEWINNING_ Yes I had a problem @ checkout with Steam today. It denied the transaction twice... then I told it to use another paypal account and logged in again and it worked.

    Hey @paypal some of your pages are writing mailto links as mailto://[email] -- don't put '//' in mailto links. Fix this bug.

    @_theartofcrypto Is there any other way to make payment for 1month subscription PayPal is not working I have added 3Cards but no use.....reply asap

  • CharlieZvible Charlie Zvibleman (@CharlieZvible) reported

    @mario_cibelli Think about how much richer you’d be if instead of using that lower return rate as a 1P retailer, they created PayPal for sizing / fit. One click login for fit at any e-commerce company If you drive higher conversion or lower returns, why not go off platform to capitalize

  • yoohxnie (@yoohxnie) reported

    wait nvm the payment is my problem, i don't have paypal...DAMN IT

  • UgurOze44089754 EagleClaw (@UgurOze44089754) reported

    @Cyphrsss @carlosdquintana @JRNYcrypto If you're going to pay with PayPal you might as well pay with Fiat and not pay any fees for buying/selling BTC and not deal with the volatility.I don't know single person that pays with BTC because it is a better form of payment.Its slow, clunky,outdated compared to newer cryptos

  • discolightsaber ika (@discolightsaber) reported

    i had some bday money left on my paypal and i just couldnt help it. I Am The Problem

  • koseiann SEI 🍥 zines (@koseiann) reported

    @Evan_Indie hello!! im not accepting through paypal anymore because of certain problems that had occured, until then you can send checks or use moneygram (an app)

  • AprilSchultz_ April (@AprilSchultz_) reported

    @SaveWinClub @PayPal Nope , i sent a Apple watch to someone , it was delivered (and he sent confirmation he got it) a month later he requested a refund which put my account negative . I went through all the hoops and provided proof and they still took my account down .

  • TPuppetOG ⌛Memento mori⌛ T-Puppet (@TPuppetOG) reported

    @KEEMSTAR @socialgloves Their first problem is that they used that stupid livexlive. If you used PayPal to purchase the ppv, it sets up automatic payments in PayPal, that you have to manually turn off.

  • OGcutfunkler Andy Cutler (@OGcutfunkler) reported

    @BucketMan82 @SneakerRefresh @ExtraButter Idk, seems to be a checkout glitch. Shoulda used PayPal I s’pose ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
