Paypal Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Bourbon Invesments 2 (@BourbonInvestm2) reported3,500 toploaders for $98.64 after my $100 cash rebate hits my PayPal upon shipping. Haters will say but Temu blows you’ll never receive them or your cash rebate and the quality will be terrible Well, quality is actually better than what I was getting from the big names. And my rebates came instantly the last two times and product received within 4 days each time. @CardPurchaser

samus 🐰 (@samuschillhouse) reported@comikawen @PayPal I really hope it helps you! It did help me at the time and never had the same problem again! Let me know if it didn't help and I'll search for another video!

FMN - SHOP OPEN ! (@FMerchNetwork) reported@nicawlette Unfortunately we no longer have PayPal as we were having too many issues with it, as well as the fact that you can only have PayPal business on big cartel. Although we have many other new payment methods such as klarna and clear pay!

𝐂𝐈𝐑𝐈_𝐕𝐓🐾🪶 (@Ciri_VT) reported@xmysticdancex The intent was clearly to help creators protect their personal information, which is important. The issue is that the original post framed it like “switch to a business account to hide your info,” but did not explain what using a business account actually means. A PayPal Business account is not just a privacy toggle. It is meant for people receiving business payments, invoicing, selling goods/services, taking commissions, etc. There can be tax, verification, recordkeeping, and account-setting implications. OP only clarify much later her error, but some people might not see that (since its not in the original post). That is why I wanted to add the warning respectfully.

Arjun Ghimire (@arjuun_3) reportednobody in nepal talks about how broken the payment infrastructure is for creators. no stripe. no paypal receiving. local cards don't work internationally. you can build the audience but you can't collect the money.

SellStein (@sellstein_x) reported"After review, your account presents a high level of risk." I got that email 25 times. Stripe. PayPal. Shopify Payments. Different stores. Different products. All digital. All shut down. Same reason every time. "High-risk." You stop expecting answers after a while. So I stopped asking for permission and built SellStein. Launches tomorrow. 3% fees. Sign up, sell, get paid. No one should need permission to run a business online. Drop your URL in replies. First 50 in get 3 months Enterprise and a lifetime Early Member badge.

jermy (@mandzuu_) reported@elyon_hintatas when i finally fix stuff gcash and paypal payments will be available !!! : )

Ron Coleman (@RonColeman) reportedOk now I see the difference began @Square and @PayPal. ✅ PayPal offers zero customer service and if they hold onto your money for their own reasons it's your problem In contrast, Square offers customer service that will keep you on the phone for half an hour and tell you that if they hold onto your money for their own reasons it's your problem
-
Wendy (@Windyb1979) reported@TimHannan Why? If he can make the money, why do you care? Are you so jealous and insecure of other’s success you have to tear them down? Maybe if you had created PayPal, Space X and Tesla, just to name the big companies, maybe you could be as rich as him. But we all know you won’t so you whine about it and probably want to confiscate it. Pathetic.

Jess (@Jessn7fy) reported@PayPal My account was permanently limited and my funds are being held for a claimed link to another account with “unresolved issues.” I do have a second account with no unresolved issues on it. I need a manual review and correction of this error Reference ID: PP-L-815348235140

Kiona 🐻🧡 (@kionafu) reported@NyxNekota Issue a chargeback through PayPal! PayPal are usually good with this sort of thing

Eden (@eden_bch) reported@vincenzo_micale The interesting question isn’t where they spend. It’s how they process. Psychic = MCC 7299, declined by Stripe, banned by PayPal. Whoever onboarded them solved the harder problem.
