Their AI couldn't verify my identity. I gave them my full SSN. They STILL can't verify my identity, even with that. Googling the problem reveals that I'm not alone, and that customer service never helps anyone with this problem. I try to do it anyway, my account is "not qualified" to even call them on the phone, all I can do is send an email. Email gets one response that basically just tells me the same unhelpful stuff already on the support page. I say that didn't fix it, and ask where I just send my ID to get verified. No reply for two weeks. This seems to be the new reality in awful customer service--just ghosting after one unhelpful reply.

My bank can verify me, can I get them to talk to my bank? No. PayPal can verify me. AirBNB can verify me, and they had to do one of those one-way webcam things to do it, but they did it. Look, I get that the automated system is faster. But you need to actually hire a human who can do it the slow way for people the automation fails. It's not encouraging for their quality as a company that they'd be this lazy about basic things like this.

And basically all I can do is smear their name around the internet, because they won't even let me call them, and their customer service can't fix basic errors in their own system. Is there anyone at Square who actually has the authority to fix this? Email me, 50f666wsazws@ opayq. Com (remove spaces), I will update this review if you ever do.

Until then, to those reading, I would take note of the people saying they had all their money frozen without warning or recourse. That really seems to be how they're running this business, just letting a mad AI do whatever it wants to your finances with no human oversight whatsoever.

DO NOT USE THIS SERVICE. As countless others have indicated, they will hold your business funds...

A deposit error happened to the wrong bank account and the customer service just hung up on me...
