I have had a Paypal Business account since 2011.
I have used Paypal with dozens of commerce websites, my own business transactions, and person-to-person transactions with success for many years.
Since 2022, Paypal has become a disappointing method of exchanging money.
This is mostly due to Account Login difficulties from commerce websites (Amazon, Ebay, and dozens of other businesses which accept Paypal).
Paypal is 90% successful in handling (hundreds) of Ebay transactions without errors, extra account prompts, password reset requests, or failure).
But in the past 6 months in particular, Paypal fails with all of the above issues.
1) Account verification via text. No text received. Ever. It does not work.
2) Account verification via email. None received after 5 minutes, and you must do it 2-3 times for any successful email to come, and then they all come.
3) Same device used. I am using 2 PC's to do all of my transactions. These are not new devices (circa 2013, circa 2020).
4) Paypal fails login using correct Account name & Password. This is terrible.
I needed to change my Account Password again, today, in order to make this very post. Because it would not accept my correct credentials.
I realize that in this day and age of security that illegal activity happens more often than ever. However Paypal is not good at handling, screening, verification, and processing regular business from established accounts.
My Account has not changed (other than recent, mandatory Password changes) in 13 years.
Paypal is beginning to become useless to me, as a person and professional.
This has been a VENT, as I realize that no Paypal employee or user account will be able to fix or resolve these technical issues which are outside their control.
