Am I the only one paranoid about the redirect from py.pl/xxxxxx to app.adjust.net.in?????
Last time I checked PayPal wasn't quartered in India.
To be or not to be...where is the question?

I did not receive the $5 credit.

I did see the offer when I logged in.

What the odds that they give it to me when I ask to review?

Well. I will let you guys know.

Last week, I used the message centre and the PayPal help said that it takes up to week for the $5 reward to be credited to the account. Today, I contacted again through the message centre because it’s been a week and I still don’t have the $5. They haven’t replied yet. I’ll update when they reply.

I believe you have to download the app via special link sent to your mobile. You need to send that link from online account if the offer appears in your account.

PayPal help got back to me, and I got the $5 reward. Probably wasn’t worth the wait, but if anyone contacts PayPal help through the message centre, they’ll probably give you a $5 courtesy credit.

They called me and said to wait 2 weeks.

I told them people got it already ....

Maybe people got the $5 for signing in and thought it was this.

I received the targeted email, installed the new app, and signed in on December 13. Today I check and of course it's not there. Another hassle, courtesy of PayPal it seems.

Messages them about this promotion today as I still did not see the $5 credit. They said they are aware of the issue and the delay in issuing the promotional credit and have escalated to their PD team.

Well. I spoke with the reps and they were adamant that I downloaded today and to wait another 10 days.

They wanted proof of email, which I did not receive.

When I logged in the PayPal site, I got the notification that I would receive $5 after downloading and logging in.

The reps seem to be aware of US customers being eligible, but not for Canadian ones.

Good luck to all.

I'm so confused. I tried to follow what everyone is doing and when I logged into my paypal account via desktop Chrome browser, selected the link to "Get the Paypal App", entered my mobile phone number to receive a text, launch the link from the text to "Get/Install" new app, launch the app and login. I don't see the $5.00 credit (knowing it may appear within 1 week) however I did not get any confirmation after installing the new app.

You dont get any kind of confirmation/notification about the $5 after installing the app.

PSA: If you use Two-Factor Authentication for your PayPal account, you'll need to temporarily disable it to login to the PayPal app.

I was getting a blank screen after attempting to login to the PayPal app. Tried this on several devices. Did some googling and found that other people with 2FA enabled had the same problem. Solution is to disable 2FA and then login with the PayPal app. Afterwards, re-enable 2FA again.

So after all that, I was able to login to the PayPal app. However, I didn't see anything that says I got the $5 credit like some others have already pointed out above. Hopefully, we'll get credited in a week or so.
