Paypal Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Philip Peake (@PhilipPeake) reportedI have a website for CHL training for Oregon. A couple of weeks ago I had problems with the payment system (PayPal) and so rapidly added Stripe payments. The PayPal problem was resolved, and I left both systems live. Most people seem to prefer Stripe, and the CC fees are lower with Stripe. I don't think I want to maintain two payment systems long term, and am leaning towards going with Stripe only. Any comments/comments?

Dale Ⓥ (@EclipseDj) reportedImagine having £400/$500 in a PayPal account but for various reasons you don’t sign in for 3+ yrs. When you try, you’re told your account has been deleted & all your money with it! Why are people saying it’s ok for #PlayStation to do this with game purchases? #digital #PSN

Steve Balogun (@deremyh) reported@abalu_uthman All these bitten down stocks could pull greatest surprised, including Meta though. I learnt a big lesson from INTEL stock. When US govt put in money, it skyrocketed. Now see what PayPal is doing now with few days. Another stock I focused on now is NIKE. Watch.

Batfella 🦇 (@Batfella_Rises) reported@JonesyShwemes @bekamaciorowski @RebekahMac8a93 I cant fault you Jeff. The only reason I do is so I can get the payment details and report to Paypal etc , its very rare that we close down a paypal account but it has happened.

bear_ (@bearunderscore) reportedmy next audio might not be for another week or so, in the middle of a lot of life stuff and also both paypal and stripe have flagged my account for suspicious activity hrngn for those who donated you can probably expect a refund in a few days, i'm super sorry for all the trouble

Ant's AI Lab (@AntsAILab) reported@carlocapocasa @Kimi_Moonshot My issue with them was the way they do business. Look at the difference in how they handled their model rollout versus Kimi. Kimi stopped taking subscriptions so they could service their existing customers first and foremost. Meanwhile, Z AI jacked up prices on all their coding plans and kept taking in more subs while they had an active caching issue on the backend that was causing exorbitant usage well beyond what it should have been. At one point on their "20X" plan, I was getting less usage than I would have on Codex's "5X" plan. People were in chat every day talking about the issue, and the response from staff was insane—they'd acknowledge the issue one hour, then a completely different person would come in and say no refunds were being issued, all while Z AI staff were in the same chat promising refunds. I've never seen such disorganization in my life. I will never give that company another dollar. I ultimately disputed through PayPal and won when Z didn't even bother to respond.

Brock (@ButterCutNiner) reported@wingoz Club down, thin it, hope they take PayPal

Felix 🫀 Fanfaron - Adam Raki Plush Coming Soon! (@FelixFanfaron) reported@beanyzilla @ACGGoods Weirdly mine also showed me being charged (or 'payment pending') the full amount at the time of the preorder, but now since the apparent PayPal refund it only shows the down payment in my bank account, so it may be worth double checking for any and all transactions with ACGGoods

Nikola (@ftblnikola) reported@AskPayPal Im locked out of acc because I don't have access to the phone number of it anymore. 2mo ago I've talked with your staff through message center so I have some mails where they did some stuff on my acc. Also I have 2FA but it's not asking me for it on login

n (@jjkmacity) reportedAnybody here play final fantasy 14?? What region should I set my square enix account to? I have intl cards but we don't have PayPal here so I'm wondering which region would make subscription payment easier down the line
-
The_Bullvestor (@BullishWhisper) reportedPayPal beats. Raises. Executes. Stock still down. That’s not a fundamentals problem… that’s a trust problem. Who’s still buying $PYPL here?

Calamarei 🩸💀 2.0 Debut SEPT 18 (@CalamareiVT) reportedI'm not gonna lie...there is something that just doesn't seem right. Everyone is out here complaining about PayPal suspending them, banning them, etc. A lot of the time due to poor tax practices or just frustrating customer service... But no one is talking about how many Twitch streamers have lost their paychecks due to Twitch not fixing or updating the community about a hacker bypassing their OWN 2FA to change your payout details with no email (meanwhile when I change it I get an email...) And Twitch won't refund because you agree each time you use Twitch to an AS IS policy that means you are agreeing that you take responsibility and will not hold Twitch liable for failed security measures...because you are agree to their security AS IS...even if this has been happening since January to many creators... Don't worry...Twitch still gets their 50/40/30% no issue 👍🏻
