  @AskPayPal why are you guys the most thieving, scamming, disgusting subhuman ***** of a company in the world? Is it a company policy to scam people out of money with your broken dogshit of an app and customer service? Thanks for the feedback and I genuinely hope you burn and die

  $IBM, $SHOP - AI is not replacing workers equally. It is exposing CEOs. The lazy read is that AI means fewer workers, better margins, cleaner earnings stories. The sharper read is that AI is becoming a leadership philosophy. Two very different playbooks Coinbase is cutting roughly 14% of its workforce as Brian Armstrong pushes the company toward a leaner, faster, AI-native structure. PayPal is reportedly planning to reduce staff by around 20% over the next two to three years while targeting at least $1.5B in savings under its turnaround plan. That is the first AI playbook: take the productivity gain and immediately convert it into headcount reduction. It can work, especially when the company is bloated, margins are under pressure, or investors have lost patience. But it also tells you something about how management sees the business. AI becomes a weapon against cost, not a tool for expanding ambition. The other side of the trade Axon and Spotify are taking the more interesting route. Axon’s message to employees was basically: AI lets teams do more, not disappear. Spotify’s Gustav Söderström framed the choice cleanly: cut people to harvest savings now, or keep headcount roughly flat and ship more value. That second path is less obvious to screeners because it does not instantly show up as a layoff headline or a clean margin bridge. But over time, it may be the stronger operating model. Same team, more output. Same payroll, faster product velocity. Same talent base, larger problem set. That is not softness. That is leverage. The IBM point matters IBM’s Nickle LaMoreaux has been pushing the right question: are companies moving from “AI to productivity” toward “AI to growth”? That is the whole debate. Productivity is the first-order gain. Growth is the second-order test. Even Gartner is warning that AI-related workforce reductions may create budget room without necessarily delivering returns. Markets love the clean story of fewer employees and higher near-term margins. But the better companies may be the ones that use AI to compound capability before they rush to shrink the org chart. Bottom line: AI is not just changing labor costs. It is revealing which CEOs are managing for a margin headline, and which ones are building a higher-output company.

  @heybeegabrielle That's exactly what happened to me. I think I sent several emails a while ago to the store and also to PayPal, but my bank just refunded me first 😭😭😭 I'm surprised because it's the first time I've had this problem in all these years 💔💔

  @terriblelovebrd Yeah!! It's always the first thing I fill out when placing my glitch orders I wanted to know if there's a specific email I can use to track my payment/order, because for some reason PayPal didn't register it and that worries me ;;;I've never had problems processing payment..

  @Badie912 @fundstrat @BitMNR Paypal is a great business too but it doesn’t matter when nobody believes in it. For now, it only depends on the $ETH price. That’s the problem with $BMNR

  Cards that usually work best: • Grey .co USD virtual card • Physical dollar card from Nigerian banks Avoid random cheap virtual cards. That’s where many people run into PayPal issues.

  Actually I find PayPal good just make sure you follow it's TOS. Been using it for years and have no issues. 1. Do not keep sending/recieving money as family and friends. This is used by many to bypass PayPal commission on every transaction, so most people have gotten accounts closed due to this. 2. Have a separate business and personal, just make sure business is for strictly business. 3. Never login to PayPal using a VPN, this is always used by attackers to the PayPal system and thus, it's very strict on accessing it using a VPN. 4. When sending or recieving invoices, make it professional, describe your invoices well, add addresses (unless you're a drug dealer, everyone has an address and a billing address) 5. Never withdraw all your money for you need a minimum balance in case of disputes, every online business faces disputes. 6. Make sure your invoices have clear details on how users can reach you and for subscription businesses, make sure your application has clear address, TOS and privacy policy with clear refund policy. 7. Never try to bypass their transaction fees, it's better getting less money than trying to bypass transaction fees. 8. Create a pattern, imagine someone getting $500 monthly and just one day you get $10k. 9. When clients send you money, don't rush to withdraw, it's a bad signal. 10. And much more.

  $PYPL is somehow under investigation in relation to “breaching” Uk anti competition laws along with $V and $MA Not sure how @PayPal is an issue here? Seems like there is loads of digital wallet competition. The #FCA have no clue as usual.
