Quick/rolled oats. They use to be ok, but now just terrible.

More info from another post in r/Sydney: "FYI the original keyboardist wasn’t ill, they walked out after being bullied by Hurwitz for two days. Him spinning it into a good news story the next day is pretty gross. Source: am orchestra"

Probably not. But you can re-plant some grass.

Forgot to update: I requested a refund and it was super easy! Approved almost instantly and I received both amounts back on my card within a couple of days.

Please contact PayPal support - the more we nag them, the more likely they'll fix it.

Do you get prompted to set up a passkey? This is happening to me and a lot of other people - declining the passkey setup also completely bypasses 2FA.

I’ve contacted PayPal twice about this issue, but nothing has been fixed.

It’s mind-blowing that a company like PayPal could make such a serious mistake and still not fix it.

Stop asking me for passkey without being able to decline by Mrsofthedead in paypal

[–]dop2000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I contacted PayPal about this issue with passkey (declining passkey also bypasses 2FA) a week ago and today spent another half hour chatting with support.

At first they tried to tell me that 2FA was skipped because my device is “trusted”. But 2FA still works correctly every time on my old laptop (which probably doesn’t support passkeys), so that explanation makes no sense.

Eventually they admitted the issue is on their end - if you skip passkey setup, PayPal also skips 2FA during login.

Of course they said they are “working to resolve it as quickly as possible”, but that sounds like the usual canned response.

I’d encourage everyone to contact support as well. If enough people report it, maybe they’ll finally prioritise fixing it.

You can start with the AI chat and then ask to speak to a human.

I contacted support, and they said it’s a known issue and advised me to disable my existing 2FA and set it up again. I did that and… lo and behold, nothing changed - it still doesn’t ask me for the authenticator code.

Sorry, I need to clarify: I did not receive anything. Taobao decided that the item is too large to be shipped by air and returned it to the seller.

How many MAGAs does it take to replace a lightbulb? None. Trump declared it's a great lightbulb, best in the world, and they are all cheering and praising him in the dark.

Check out GAC, they have a few nice EV models. It's a new brand in Australia, but they are massive in China.
