Paypal Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
SOFTDRINKTV (@softdrinktv) reported@Stillmatic24 True I'll add that, have it run on my home server, MTX go straight to my PayPal
-
Scarlett (@AItechscarlett) reportedIf someone hacks your Gmail, they don't need your passwords. They can reset everything. Bank. Instagram. Apple ID. Crypto. PayPal. Password manager. Your Gmail isn't email. It's the master key to your entire life. Here's how to lock it down in 10 minutes: 🧵

Mr Hankey (@hivanchi) reported@paypal - leaving another message to be lost in wilderness of the internet. Had to do a chargeback for what seems to be a clear item not received issue. Never open these type of cases, but both @eBay and @paypal denied a simple case. Both their customer services are subpar.

saph 🦄 (@stevestappen) reported@ifwewerenothing they're trying to shut down the donations system (attempting to report to paypal and other portals that AO3 accepts donations from about the "depraved works" hosted by the website)
-
Hydrangea 【LVLY】 (@LadyHydrangeaVT) reported@Immorta1Monarch This is why i use vgen and vgen payments at least i can click ‘theres a problem’ before the funds are released to them. Yes it may mean theres less artists for me to com but at least theres a fallback unlike paypal.

Ben Po (@bens_report) reported@LindaRaschke PayPal 4 days pf3 down. Will it at least get a low to high day today? Hahaha
-
Dhark (@traceytina16) reported@Safaricom_Care @SafaricomPLC we need to understand where our money is disappearing to since you don’t want to clarify what the problem is. It has now been over a week and nothing. On @PayPal money was transferred but it is only your app that says it’s pending ffs
-
Ryan Kagels (@rykegs) reported@Venmo is the worst, most useless digital wallet It blocks payments, no explanation, useless for non-profits unless linked to a volunteers personal account. Business use - a joke. All you have to do is move money. Why wouldn’t @PayPal shut it down
-
Uriel (@urielokahu) reportedA client wanted paid roles in their discord. Here's the whole flow. User visit site, discord login, checkout in crypto or PayPal, payment webhook hits my backend, verify, bot assigns the role, cron watches expiry. Sounds clean. It wasn't. The webhook fired twice on one payment. Same user, two events, milliseconds apart. Without idempotency keys that's a double charge or a corrupted subscription record. Fix: every payment event gets a unique key written to the database before anything is processed. The second event sees the key and exits. Boring code. Saves you a refund and a very annoyed customer.

Dhark (@traceytina16) reportedMy paypal mpesa issue was resolved finally. Thank God!

Only taking system trades and not going stupid size so I don't blow up. I can't afford to lose this money and pay the payment on it. Slow start on the first day, unfortunately $SSM and $FLYE ramped back EoD otherwise would have been a great start. Previous Account Size: $8,500.53 Current Account Size: $8,922.25

WISECP (@wisecpcom) reported@Zarkos85 Hi @Zarkos85 — thanks for letting us know, and sorry for the trouble. It was a short-lived issue on the checkout page and it's fixed now; card and PayPal are both going through again. Please give it another try, and if anything is still off, open a ticket and we'll get on it.

anne flynn (@sliabhconn) reported@Salome__Salome_ @defan68 There seems to be an issue with PayPal, maybe check it out?

Optus (@Optus) reported@enngees Hi there, customers can recharge their service or purchase add-ons online using a credit/debit card (Visa, MasterCard, Amex, or JCB) and PayPal. An Optus service needs to connect to the Optus network for activation, so we generally recommend setting up and activating the SIM once they've arrived in Australia. If you're still having trouble recharging, please send us a DM, and we'll take a closer look into this for you. -Talia
