Paypal Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
Milos (@CROguy_) reportedGot traffic that's ready to buy? Get out of their way. Test express checkout buttons right on the product page. We got a $12k difference here with that change. High-intent traffic isn't shopping around - they've decided. Every tap between "I want this" and "here's my card" is a tap you can lose them on. Shop Pay / PayPal / Apple Pay under the buy box 👉 straight to payment, skip the cart. PayPal especially prints here. People trust it and check out without a second thought. Don't slow down someone who's already sold.

Alvin (@Alvin1492840) reportedA guy used PayPal for 9 years. He sent money. He received money. He linked his bank account once in 2017 and never opened Settings again. His friend a former PayPal fraud analyst who spent 6 years inside the risk and security division was over for dinner when the guy mentioned he got scammed buying concert tickets online. "Did you pay with Friends and Family or Goods and Services?" "I don't know. What's the difference?" His friend put down his fork. "Pull up your account. Right now." He looked at the account for 90 seconds. "You have no two-factor authentication turned on. You have 6 preapproved automatic payments you didn't know about including one that's been charging you $2.49/month for 7 months from a service you've never heard of. Your data is being shared with third parties because a setting PayPal turned on by default is selling your shopping behavior. You've been paying a 4% currency conversion fee on every international transaction when you could've paid close to zero. And that concert ticket scam? You sent $180 as Friends and Family. You'll never get that money back." He changed 9 settings in 12 minutes. The guy said "I've had this account since college and never touched any of this." His friend said "PayPal is counting on that. The less you look, the more they make in fees, in data, and in disputes you can't win because you didn't know the rules." Here's every setting he changed 🧵

Liliya |VGen Commissions Open| (@Liliyalili_art) reported@ApolloArt_png Ya. That could be But I think VGen can handle it. Good luck! Also use vgen payments instead of PayPal cuz it heard it's easier to issue a charge back on PayPal. Don't know how true that is tho.

Katash Sierrette (@KatashSierrette) reported@berubeswagos If your usa. Just a fyi. File a BBC report and a account commerce complaint against paypal about how you got hacked and they didnt fix the dispute. That's what got the ball moving when this happened to me. It won't be quick but it got a real person to look at my dispute.

Scythe | Commissions Closed link Bio (@NamesakeGeodite) reportedWhat other payment method can I use that isn’t PayPal or Kofi? I’m still having issues with those two
-
Jennifer, English-German Translator (@InfoRosebrock) reportedI run everything through PayPal because I don’t have a bank account, and now PayPal is refusing to let me issue invoices or receive money because I don’t have a bank account. It’s ridiculous... They could've told me 3 months ago that this only works for a while!!!!

Trove Finance (@trovefinance) reportedWhy consider selling? Intense competition from Apple Pay, Block, Affirm, Klarna, Stripe & more. PayPal stock is down 18% YTD and 35% from last year. Nothing confirmed yet.

Lara🐶 (@ynhpuppy) reportedand she normally does pay over her dads paypal when this happens. So i told her i can pay those 2 dicons for her if it get it back the next few days. As i said we are really close and shes the most honest and nicest person ever so i had no problem with this.

Alvin (@Alvin1492840) reportedTurn on two-factor authentication (before someone else logs in) This was the first thing he fixed and the most important. His PayPal account had one layer of protection: a password. The same password he used on 3 other sites. No verification code. No security key. Nothing. He said: "If someone gets your password from a data breach and odds are they already have, since PayPal was involved in a credential-stuffing incident affecting thousands of accounts they walk right into your account. No alert. No second check. Full access to your bank." Here's the fix: Log in to PayPal. Go to Settings. Click Security. Select "2-step verification." Choose either an authenticator app (more secure) or text message code (better than nothing). Now every login requires your password plus a one-time code from your phone. Even if someone has your password, they can't get in. He said: "This takes 60 seconds to set up and it's the single thing standing between your bank account and anyone who buys stolen credentials on the dark web. PayPal doesn't require this by default. It should."
