    @HP_Community @heatherpeace I’m having trouble with PayPal not letting me pay the membership fee. Where do I go from here please?

  • JordanFreeman11 Jordan Freeman (@JordanFreeman11) reported

    Here’s the big problem with all these Twitter “philanthropists” other than @pulte, they never want to help through way of CashApp or PayPal. They want banking info and access for a “cheque” deposit. Do they think people are so vulnerable and foolish as to allow that? Be better.

    @xpandgaming I like what you guys are doing but you should be able to pay your creators through USDC. PayPal sucks in many countries because of the big fees, here in Argentina it's terrible.

  • sorney dave sorenson (@sorney) reported from Andover, Minnesota

    @PenguinKillBear @TheFedMN Yeah, so, I have issues. I’m a sucker for the sip and click (beer, laptop, PayPal). I have about 15-20 bats. And I have 14 gloves at last count. I’ve been really good at not buying more gloves. But the bats still get me.

    Dear @paypal -- your account system is terrible. One can add users to the account but THEY ALL HAVE TO HAVE THE SAME PASSWORD -- who is at the wheel over there? So messed up.😲 #paypal

  • srtc1905 卐𝙴𝚁𝚃𝙰ℂ (@srtc1905) reported

    Years ago, I registered to PayPal from Turkey with my personal gmail address. Then PayPal left Turkey. I live in the Netherlands right now and I can't login to PayPal with my personal gmail address. #PayPal @PayPal @AskPayPal

    @AcryWeaver Seems like it is true sadly :( if you have a personal PayPal it isn’t an issue it’s just if it’s a business account you’ll have to make a new personal one for friends and family payments.

  • TheMelWestbrook Melissa Westbrook (@TheMelWestbrook) reported

    @AskPayPal @PayPal is the worst payment platform. Honestly, if you have a choice, use someone else. Vague website and terrible customer service.

    Ah note to self PayPal wasn’t being difficult it was just being slow and I’m impatient

  • zak_hoosen Zak Hoosen (@zak_hoosen) reported

    @PayPal and @AskPayPal why do users get stuck in the verification loop . . login -> verification code-> transaction ->verification code-> then verification code-> then verification code....

  • The_Drew1505 Andrew 'The Drew' Murphy (@The_Drew1505) reported

    @ctrlaltcassie Completely understandable. Once I remember my Paypal login, a few bucks are headed your way.

  • dgtlselves Lizzie Wilson  (@dgtlselves) reported

    Hi @AskPayPal .. I'm trying to send a payment using your service. It keeps asking me to authenticate via text, confirming the authentication and then sending me back to authenticate again? Can you fix this??

  • the_ezsmith Ethan "EZ" Smith (@the_ezsmith) reported

    I'm old school, I still use PayPal for much (read most) of my client billing -- because it's easy, it works, and I've been on it for so damn long. Ain't fixing it if it ain't broken. #businessbuilding #397digital #wordpressdev

  • Dirtytraxmusic Dirtytrax Records (@Dirtytraxmusic) reported

    @AskPayPal hello , I have a problem with my account, I can't send money, it sends me a text message, I write down the code I received and it keeps going round and round

    "So here's an item I want to buy." "Yep" "it's related to an item I also bought from the same person this month with no issues." "Yep" "So I should be able to buy it with the more than sufficient money I have." "Makes sense to me." "Then lemme buy it" *paypal locked for fraud*
