Paypal Issues Reports
Latest outage, problems and issue reports in social media:
-
DingusCola SLOTS CLEARED (@fackinbuddy) reported@___EEF_ There are apparently people on Reddit as recent as 4 days ago having the exact same issue on me and the working theory that it’s due to paypal’s ai security. This could validate for a genuine law suit
-
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.

jinowns (@Jinowns87) reportedHere's another neat trick I do every year. If you have paypal, you can break down the entire cost into 4 payments. Meaning you pay 25% percent now while PayPal pays the merchant the entire amount and then you can make payments every 2 weeks. Doooo iiiittttt!!

Edward The Loudmouth (@EDMaumbauer) reported@GretchenPSmith Gretchen, yeah, you do... that is how Paypal operates, same with X, FB, Insta, Visa, Mastercard, Your bank... we used to simply call them server farms. Data Centers are as necessary for the world to operate today as is oil. Get rid of them, the world STOPS DEAD

Chaos🔞Comms Open (@ChaosReverb) reported@Aerea_caeles No, actually I don't have that message, but I know who it is because of the comms. The biggest problem that theme from the PayPal and socialmedia theft (which I never got back my PayPal, because according to PayPal I am not me) is that person blocked many people on my social media and deleted entire chats, in addition to changing the passwords and emails. So I didn't even get the full conversations and when I recovered my accounts, I could never contact them again on Twitter because I never found them to explain what happened, and they never responded to me on Instagram either. Obviously, I contacted as many people as I could.

˚ʚ♡ Euphoria Li ♡ɞ˚ 🦋🌙🏮 (@Euphoria_LiVT) reported@JimManahan Receiving payments restricts your account. If you use PayPal for purchases meaning money going out from your linked cards, then there's no problem. Receiving payments from clients is a different discussion, especially when your account is new.

🌙 Baiyue & Maowa!! 🐈⬛ (FLOOF model out NOW!!) (@BaiyueMaowa) reported@RedMaster787 With the whole misandrist review drama + paypal issues I had, VGen probably is so tired of me HAHA I would hate to bother them again for something that is so silly 😭
-
Kapt'n Krunch 🛠️⚓ (@KaptainKrunch97) reportedif you’re an artist that takes 6+ months on a triple digit priced commission, we don’t issue chargebacks around here this is 2026, your PayPal got your government name and address on it, we are outside your house buddy
-
jitin yadav (@jitinyadav) reportedDoes she even understand what PayPal does? What restructuring is. Who are the clients? Why is their business down? Or is it a requirement that you have to be completely illogical to be a Modi and BJP basher.
-
Nigel J Bevans Photo (@NJBDP) reported@hmefsww Hi, unfortunately I closed my website store down as they were charging a ridiculous amount to sell things. To keep prices reasonably I had to find an alternative and only have eBay at moment. I could do it via paypal cutting out ebay if you would like?

Bern (@Bernman2004) reportedYou paypal link is broken @Autumnvz8

Daniel Pacheco (@DanStrover) reportedI can't create my account from Venezuela because I get an error when requesting the SMS; I've already tried with all the phone carriers. @AskPayPal
