  • HeySage_ 🐝Sage🐝 (@HeySage_) reported

    @rasquachetv I’ve seen a few others who have been having paypal issues switch to @stripe, but I’ve not looked into it personally

  • GodfatherCrypto GODFATHER CRYPTO (@GodfatherCrypto) reported

    How do I buy Bitcoin? Don’t you have to open a dedicated crypto account? Which website should I invest through? Do I need $19,000 to buy one bitcoin? PayPal smashed down all these barriers in one swoop. Bring on the masses.

  • endiahbeni Endiah (@endiahbeni) reported

    Hi @AskPayPal kindly help to solve my issue regarding my paypal activity. Thanks

  • Mr2Orange Citizen Kane (@Mr2Orange) reported

    here are the tell-tale signs for criminality: 1 - the OS slows down after a few days or weeks. 2 - payment is either not possible or uses 'paypal' (gaypal) or, worse, bitcoin.

  • avataram avataram (@avataram) reported

    Update tried today again: 1. Country drop down has improved, all countries are there. 2. Paypal is still not a valid payment option 3. Almost got to the paying stage, but website insisted on an OTP from an american bank & failed. Most US banks don't understand this OTP business

  • ATXBlueVoter Austin,TX Blue Voter (@ATXBlueVoter) reported

    @DevinRaging @kduffey33 @lizzard1278 You can contest a payment on PayPal I've had to do that twice for online purchases and I was reimbursed both times no issues. there is a time frame though you have to report the problem within like 90 days I think.

  • Rayansardana Rayan Sardanah (@Rayansardana) reported

    @JagexSupport My account has an outstanding balance, Online interact pay in giving me an error and to try again later, and there isn't a paysafe card big enough to cover the entire bill, and my account isn't showing options to use my Credit card or PayPal, can I get some help?

  • SaraMcDowell18 Sara McDowell⭐️⭐️⭐️ (@SaraMcDowell18) reported

    @PayPal I believe PayPal is struggling financially and they want you to buy this crypto currency to bail themselves out. You do not have a wallet or a key and cannot access your account. Just warning people! This is a terrible company and I wouldn’t trust them!

  • classygigi thank goodness! its gigi 🦃🥧 (@classygigi) reported

    The problem with shopping small business is that you have basically no security in getting your items (unless you go through PayPal I guess). I placed an order like 3 weeks ago and another 2 weeks ago and haven’t heard a peep from either. 😑

  • BioSparkles ⋆✨Sparks✨⋆ (@BioSparkles) reported

    @rat_in_a_coat bit of a bandaid fix, but the Streamelements donation/tipping system doesn’t require you to doxx yourself to donators. I hope Streamlabs/PayPal realise how dangerous this requirement can be and fix it ASAP.

  • spreadoperator_ ♐Head-First Insertion♐ (@spreadoperator_) reported

    Hey. @PayPal. What's wrong with your Report Unauthorized Activity page stalled in loading? The other three "Report a Problem" options work but those aren't the ones I need. =_=

  • renransome juliette cai love bot (@renransome) reported

    remember how paypal & etsy weren’t cooperating? still haven’t got all my refunds and so i’m currently down to $5 :)))

  • Dandandxd burnouter (@Dandandxd) reported

    @SmallBeav alright cause I am down to buy from your wishlist soo you can get some of the items hopefully by xmas. thats why I was also asking about email and email for PayPal or if an e-gc would be acceptable for your snap deal

  • MasakuniDragon Little dragon making a Christmas list ❄🐉 (🌩 🏆) (@MasakuniDragon) reported

    and I'm trying to pay it down more and more so I can get a $200 rainy day fund (where if I need to use Paypal Credit I don't let the line get over $2000), but somehow lately interest rates are out of whack I can't get it below within $50 of maxing out

  • bigpaul_25 Paul Rodriguez (@bigpaul_25) reported

    @PS5RestockNews You do PayPal if you real you’ll won’t have a problem doing it. That way if I or any one else buys and you don’t send nothing we get our money. Protects us as a consumer. They don’t release funds until order is confirmed.

  • xGabbyNu Gabby Nu 🎄 (@xGabbyNu) reported

    @MinervaMori Yeah, what sucks more is I had to wait until today to file a claim because it was the “last day the shipment could arrive” or something, even though the sellers site has been down for days lol. I might just file a PayPal claim if this drags on tbh

  • asslickerr9000 hi minx ➐ (@asslickerr9000) reported

    Please just send me a ******* picture of your goddamn toes. It's so ******* easy just get your camera point down and click the ******* shutter button oh my god why do you have to make it so ******* complicated I sent you $50 on PayPal

  • DaveAm0s 👑G (@DaveAm0s) reported

    @DarrieuxG @linuswilson Damn bro! Was PayPal an option? I know some people had success with PayPal through BestBuy, it might be a way to circumnavigate the CC issue you have
