As the title says, PayPal isn't working. 403 error code when trying to access PayPal via a web browser or using the PayPal app. If PayPal is having issues, they need to come out and say it. It's very frustrating not being able to log into my account, send money, and make payments. What gives?

Hi @Shade_Koopa
Welcome to community,
I request you to remove caches and cookies from your web browser and try in different browser after few hours, If problem still persists, I'd recommend reaching out to our Customer Support teams by clicking "Contact" at the bottom of any PayPal page for further assistance.
Thank you,
Renuka.

On the one hand, I appreciate you took the time to respond to my message. Unfortunately, I feel disappointed that you didn't appear to read what I had written. I'd already done everything you suggested.
?
Days later it worked, I don't know why it took so long? The ability to contact support directly didn't seem to work at all. (maybe it was because Mercury was in Retrograde and it no longer is. Who knows.) Again, thanks for taking time to respond.
