If you must keep your PayPal account, keep your balance as low as possible and ask for replacement cards, companion cards and anything else to drive up their costs.

Can someone explain to me how paypal was going to do this?

What goes on the Internet stays on the Internet..................

[Vigilanteman]

Yes, it is. Use Zelle.

"Fined" 6%? What a weird way of saying they posted a loss.

It is a play on words. Paypal threatened to fine customers $2,500.00 for each incident of “misinformation, hate, violence, racial or other forms of intolerance that is discriminatory.” After a large number of customers cancelled their paypal accounts over the new policy this weekend, the company walked back the new policy.

Yeah, somebody suggested their policy is like the Chinese social credit score. If it’s true that’s probably why they hate freedom.

I love that one...

“What a weird way of saying they posted a loss.”

What a weird way of saying their stock is down ...

And conservatives are the fascists? Oh, OK.

In response, a flood of people canceled their PayPal accounts.

I canceled mine. I've used PayPal nearly as long as I've been on FR.

I still must use payClown a few times year for ebay transactions. Such as ....\Essential Minor Elements 5 lb. Granular Fertilizer 5% iron All Plants\https://www.ebay.com/itm/272266839613

I’m going to dump my PayPal account but their web page won’t open. That’s a chicken crap way to avoid losing clients but obviously they’re getting a flood of cancelations. I can wait, I just won’t use them until I can dump them.

[Red Badger]

You can’t buy the product direct from mfr and send them a money order?.................

Totally agree that the source of ‘wokeness’ is usually via HR ciphers. It is the feeble-minded leftists who are most attracted to HR positions. It allows them to work in a good-paying job that produces nothing that contributes to a positive bottom line and they get to indulge in building little fiefdoms that are accountable to no one.

Of course someone had to convince upper mgmt that a department that contributes nothing to the bottom line and does nothing but issue morale-busting diktats was a good thing. And some upper mgmt dolt listened ...
