PayPal 4+

I really love the app but I stopped receiving notifications of payment after the latest updates. I’ve checked notification settings both in general “Settings” and inside the app, everything is enabled but no notifications are coming. I re-installed the app but it didn’t help either :( help!

I’m Ukrainian who is currently in the military defending my country. For a period of time I have been receiving donations through PayPal from my friends and allies around the world. I used these funds solely to finance tools for my and my fellow soldiers’ survival and safety. Yesterday PayPal froze assets on my account (of $2377 worth at the time of writing this) for 180 days without giving clear explanation why! PayPal support could not or would not help me resolve or clarify the issue. I have reasons to believe this action has been taken as a result of either a deliberate attack on the part of people who support Russia’s genocidal invasion of my country or/and an attack due to the fact that I represent vulnerable social group (specifically I am LGBTQ+ person from a country where my identity isn’t fully protected from discrimination by existing laws).

By blocking my account PayPal effectively contributes to the destructive actions of Russia against my country, me personally and my fellow soldiers, whom these funds would be allocated to as well (for things like medical kits, protective gear, etc). I’m no longer able to use my personal funds on my account to buy supplies for my and my brothers and sisters’ in arms survival.

I ask everyone who is reading this to spread this information in hopes that PayPal reconsider freezing my account!

my money was stolen :) pre story. I created an account to receive a gift on March 8 from my friend, he transferred money to me and my account was limited and asked for verification, I provided all the necessary documents but verification was rejected and my account was permanently limited. I tried to understand the reason and contacted support, but there I received an answer that all operators were busy or the page was throwing an error. By the way, I tried to do this about 20 times. then I called the hotline number and did not wait for an answer, for which my operator wrote off money from me, because the call was in roaming. and only after that, based on reviews from the Internet, I learned that there are a lot of people like me and PayPal blocks accounts for no reason and excludes the possibility of contacting them. Thank you very much for this incredibly disgusting experience and wasted nerves.
