XX/XX/2019 I was a victim of rental scam on XX/XX/2019. On XX/XX/2019 I found the same scammers on XXXX attempting to do another rental scam. I contact a XXXX XXXX. She sent me the identical lease agreement I got on XX/XX/2019. She requested I send her {$800.00} before I can move into the property. XXXX XXXX requested I send her the deposit through Cash App. Unfortunately, there is no one from Cash App that is willing to take the complaint and investigate the account these scammers are using for fraud. I am requesting that Cash App investigates the account for $ XXXX. I requested that Cash App reports their findings to the account holders local police and freeze the account. These banking institutions and companies for money transfers are just as guilty as the criminals stealing money from people, because they dont care if their clients are committing fraud. Parties involved : XXXX XXXX , XXXX. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, TX XXXX United States Phone : XXXX Name : XXXX XXXX State : Alabama Zip code : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, AL XXXX, USA XXXX : XXXX XXXX XX/XX/2019 I found the same people that scam me on XX/XX/2019 on XXXX.

He took my information but cant guarantee that a report or investigation will be made. He said he cant take the report, after all because I didnt send the money. I would like XXXX to report these individuals to the police and FBI. I would like my {$1600.00} back from when I was scammed on XX/XX/2019. I want XXXX allow consumers to report fraud to them without having to send money. XX/XX/2019 Parties Involved XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX I was a victim of a rental scam. Since I was scammed I have been following the group of XXXX doing the rental scams on XXXX. They make fake XXXX accounts. These accounts are normal made a few days in advance, with no friends but a few XXXX liking the picture. All the XXXX in this group of scammers are all from the same tribe. They have people in the US able to collect the money and wire it to XXXX. I I recognize the posting and pictures from the rental ads from when I was scammed. A XXXX XXXX gave me a XXXX email XXXX. She wanted me to send her {$800.00} for an apartment. The same apartment address that I was scammed for on XX/XX/2019. XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, CA. No one from XXXX would take the report. I would like XXXX to investigate the XXXX account for XXXX. I would like XXXX to report their findings to the local police for the account holder and FBI. I would like XXXX to shut that account down so that no one else gets scammed. On XX/XX/2019 I found the same rental scammers that scammed me on XX/XX/2019. I contact XXXX XXXX on XXXX in XXXX XXXX State University Off-Campus Housing. XX/XX/2019 XXXX XXXX emailed me a lease that is identical to rental scam on XX/XX/2019. XXXX XXXX messaged me to deposit {$1500.00} into her XXXX XXXX XXXX account. I called XXXX XXXX XXXX about the rental scammers using XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX institution as away to scam people in order to send money to XXXX. The representative was not interested in taking my information. I am requesting that XXXX XXXX XXXX investigates this account, close the account and report their findings to the local police of the account holder. The account information is below : XXXX XXXX XXXX account no:XXXX. Act name : XXXX XXXX.

I called XXXX XXXX to notify them of the fraud. I talked to XXXX in the fraud that said he will message the wire fraud department. I offered the police report and informed them that a team of individuals are committing fraud. XXXX was not interested in getting the information. I contacted Florida police ( XXXX ) XXXX and they were not interested in taking the report. As a matter of fact, no police station cares about these rental scams. Not the XXXX, Maryland police and Florida. Thats why these criminals can scam over {$20000.00} a month to Americans. These individuals are using US banks having Americans wire money to XXXX as rental scams. I want XXXX XXXX to investigate these accounts to help stop the fraud.

On XX/XX/2019 XXXX said she forgot her phone in the car and will meet us tomorrow. Again no show and no call. I have repeatedly requested for the monies to be returned to us. XXXX claims she never got the money. I contacted XXXX fraud department and they referred me to call the wire department. There was nothing that the fraud department could do to help me but freeze my accounts. The XXXX wire department was closed till Monday. The wire department business hours are Monday to Friday from XXXX to XXXX. I talked to XXXX the account for XXXX XXXX is still active and funds are available for the amount of {$1600.00}. I told a representative at XXXX I had a police report number, the representative said they can only accept it from the police department and/or XXXX.

XX/XX/2019 I contacted the wire department and there was no update. I informed the XXXX XXXX department that XXXX is going to request a Hold Harmless Letter. The representative informed me not to worry they will take care of it, they know what they are doing and its still being processed. I talked to XXXX the account for XXXX XXXX is still active and funds are available for the amount of {$1600.00}. XX/XX/2019 I contacted the XXXX wire department. A representative told me, Im ma'am but the bank recall was denied by the other bank. There is nothing we can do. I ask to speak to a manager. After 30 minutes of being on hold, I was transferred to manager XXXX. XXXX said he will escalate the case their investigators because XXXX is requesting a Hold Harmless letter. XXXX said, It doesnt seem like they want to return the money. I informed XXXX that the account was still open and the funds are in the account.

XX/XX/2019 XXXX claims she is not giving me back my money because I contacted her bank ( XXXX ). She reports that XXXX closed their accounts. I reported the incident to the FBI. I had a missed call at XXXX, ( which is outside normal business hours ). I called back the number, which was the same as the XXXX wire department. I called back XXXX wire department. The representative said that was nothing he can do to help me connect with the investigator that tried to call me. I requested to be transferred to XXXX. XXXX said he will email them about calling me back within normal business hours. XXXX said he will email XXXX to inform them that a Hold Harmless letter is being processed. XXXX said he would call me back with an update. XXXX did not call back. When I called back at XXXX, I was on hold for 45 minutes and then disconnected. I was hung up on many times by representatives, when I was calling the XXXX wire department to follow up with the investigators. I talked to XXXX the account for XXXX XXXX is still active and funds are available for the amount of {$1600.00}. XXXX XXXX XXXX weekend all offices were closed. XX/XX/2019 I had to call the wire department 20 times. Finally, I was transferred to XXXX, he said the investigators will not be calling me back. I need to print out everything I had and take it to my local bank and they can fax or email them the information. I went to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, CA XXXX ( XXXX ) XXXX. I handed over everything I had printed out of screenshots from emails, XXXX messages, copy of the lease agreement, text messages and police report number to XXXX XXXX ( Branch Manager Vice President ). XXXX said, he doesnt have any communication with the wire department or their emails. I gave him the wire department phone number and case number. He said he was really busy and will do it when he can. I return two hours later, XXXX said, he called and talked to the XXXX wire department and sent an internal tol the wire department. XXXX said there is nothing he can do, that I will have to contact the wire department. XX/XX/2019 I contacted XXXX wire department I was hung up on by an employee name XXXX in the wire department and refused to transfer me to XXXX. XXXX yelled and argued with me because I did not know the exact amounts in my bank accounts, and account number. He refused to look up my account by my social security number, address and case number. I learned from another representative that XXXX never sent the email to XXXX XXXX letting them know that XXXX was working on this account. When I finally talked to XXXX, he informed me that he has received my documents. For me to go to my local banker for more information. XX/XX/2019 I called XXXX Wire Department for 3 hours. XXXX kept refusing to talk to me. I was told by a wire representative to go to my local bank they have the answers for me. XXXX said that he doesnt have any information for me, and I had to call the wire department. After four more hours of calling the XXXX wire department, I finally talked to XXXX. XXXX said my Hold Harmless letter request was denied. I ask why, he refused to give me a reason. I call XXXX in tears. I was transferred to XXXX wire fraud department and talked to XXXX. XXXX took my information, police report number, and ask if I can provide them with records of emails, text messages and police report. I said, Yes, I can! I told XXXX that I had everything except the police report that it takes weeks or days for XXXX police to email me the report, but I had the badge number, phone, and police report number. XXXX said she will send an email to put the Hold Harmless investigations in motion. XXXX said for me to call the wire department to do another recall request, and for them to forward the information I sent them. I called XXXX wire department, it took three hours before I could talk to someone without hanging up on me. I informed the XXXX wire representatives about what XXXX from XXXX told me, and the representatives said repeatedly that the Hold Harmless was denied.. The representatives from XXXX wire department kept hanging up on me and refused to transfer me to the manager. I finally got into contact with XXXX, who I informed what XXXX told me. XXXX said we will do another recall that day. XXXX said, but they dont want to give you back your money thats why they are asking for a Hold Harmless letter. I explained this is their procedure. They need to justify why they are returning the money. XXXX again told me to talk to XXXX. XXXX told me to call the wire department. XXXX called the wire department. XXXX called back and said it looks like XXXX doesnt want to give you back your money, XXXX told him that they did 3 to 4 wire recalls on this account. I informed everyone the account at XXXX for XXXX XXXX was still open and the funds are still there. XX/XX/2019 XXXX called me at XXXX and said he will take my complaints to the executive branch. He said he is trying to help me and doesnt know why the XXXX wire department keeps sending me back to him. He said someone should be calling me by XXXX. I called XXXX XXXX department at XXXX. I was on hold for 30 minutes. I talked to XXXX from the XXXX wire department, I gave him my name and that I wanted an update on my wire recall. He ask me for my account number, I told him I didnt have it. XXXX hung up on me. At XXXX I called the XXXX wire department. XXXX said no bank recall was done, in fact only one recall that was done on this account. The Hold Harmless was denied and the case is closed. I requested to get transfer to XXXX and he said another recall will not be done because they will just ask for another Hold Harmless Letter. XXXX said he sent an email to XXXX requesting the money to be returned without a Hold Harmless Letter. I talked to XXXX they informed me that only one bank wire recall was done. When they ask for the Hold Harmless letter, they thought the wire recall was abandoned because XXXX did not respond to their request. Again the representatives from the XXXX wire department lied to me. XX/XX/2019 at XXXX XXXX from XXXX Executive department called me that they received my my complaint from the FTC . I would get a response in 15 days. I requested that the documents I sent to XXXX to be forwarded to XXXX. XXXX said she will look into it and let me know if they can send the documents. XXXX did explain that a Hold Harmless letter states XXXX is not at fault for this transaction, that is why a Hold Harmless Letter is difficult for them to do for me. At XXXX I talked to XXXX from XXXX Wire Department. She said that there was no response from XXXX regarding XXXX email to them. She said that another wire recall will not be completed because it will cause them to create another case. I called XXXX wire department and talked to XXXX. She said since Im not a XXXX client she cant take any information from me. XX/XX/2019 XXXX I talked to XXXX from XXXX Wire Department. Ses said that the Hold Harmless letter was denied. ( Which I did not ask about ). Ses said that the email was sent from XXXX to XXXX XX/XX/2019 at XXXX. She said that XXXX replied XX/XX/2019 at XXXX that the request requires a Hold Harmless letter. When I repeated what XXXX said, Ses began to say she meant regarding the Executive investigation. However, I was very clear about what I was talking about and what email I was referring to in my phone conversation. This is my biggest issue with XXXX is the poor communication. I feel that both of the banks are lying to me and do not care because its not their money. At XXXX I got a call from XXXX Executive department that they received my complaint from FTC , the individual said XXXX XXXX is assigned to my case. I will get a response in 15 days. My complaint with XXXX is their unwillingness to investigate the fraud. Its extremely unethical to allow someone to use XXXX as a means to commit fraud. My complaint is that XXXX is not doing to due diligence in helping me. XXXX wire department are not willing to do the Hold Harmless letter because its just too much work for them. They are refusing to send the documents to XXXX because their intentions are to punish my family and I for being scammed. I feel that if I wasnt a minority I would have been provided with better customer service and a Hold Harmless letter would have been provided. My family life savings are in these accounts that are intended for my daughters college tuition. By losing this money we are distressed and my daughter is becoming XXXX. My daughter is set back in her education because of this. Every penny we need for her college education. XXXX wire department is destroying lives for people of XXXX. Please help me. Thank you, XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, CA XXXX

Desired Outcome/Settlement Desired Settlement : Refund To be contacted by phone, not email or mail to discuss and resolve my complaint. Wednesday, XX/XX/2020 Complaint : XXXX I am rejecting this response because : I appreciate cash app responding, but its not what I asked for. I asked to receive a phone call, because I have received several emails from 7 different cash app support team people saying the exact same thing asking for the exact same information but never responding to the case itself. This went on for well over a month in response I receive said it should take 10 days to respond but because of coronavirus it may take a little longer. after a month I still havent heard I received a response to my complaint. This is the reason why I requested a phone call from cash app to speak to someone personally about my case. I was told by a cash app representative to request a call back there would be a place to request a call back when you file a complaint but that part of the complaint process was removed so I requested a callback with in my complaint but that also was ignored, all I was doing was following their policy in the number they provided if you account was hacked or compromised to reach them right away, and I try to contact them within hours of my account being compromised, and all I ever received was a recorded message. I called my bank that was also compromise because of Cash App and they had no problem dealing with the issue right away and stop any further damages. So if cash app can send me a phone number I can call besides the one with the recorded message to speak to someone in person to resolve this issue would be greatly appreciate it. Sincerely, XXXX XXXX Tuesday, XX/XX/2020 Thanks for reaching out and making us aware of this issue. Were sorry to hear about your experience.

I sent you all the proof and documentation showing that my account was compromised I had all the security protocols on my account, thats why I had to file a fraud report with XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX as well. You stated you paid this {$200.00} as a courtesy credit, but my account was hacked for {$800.00} in the exact same transaction you saw the {$200.00} compromise, it wasn't two different transactions, it was the same transaction. Who did you pay because I can not find a {$200.00} transaction anywhere in my new cash app account ( XXXX ). Your policy said to contact cashapp right away at XXXX which I tried several times. before I had to contact cash app by emailing witch I did several times to try resolving this issue.

Dear Cash App Support Team, I am highly disappointed with this response overall in this seemingly expedited denial of this support claim, especially under the particular circumstances & along with a mountain of supporting documentation included for this case 's 'resolution ' response ( I've spent quite a while in total on my end, compiling together all of the pertinentinformation to the support case in order to ensure that my due diligence in the situation was completed as accurately as possible ). In light of this particular decision 's outcome though & in a fair turn under the circumstances, I will definitelybe thinking twice going forward before utilizingyour services again in the future due to this outcome overall. I sincerely do believe that under the circumstances that I have gone above & beyond in order to prove definitively & without a shadow of a doubt to your support team, as well as to the other 3rd party mediators involved in situation too as well that I have indeed been scammed out of substantial funds ( in my particular circumstance ) by the holder of the other account ; especially since there are blatantand fully notable documentable evidence examples of account misuses by highly likely legally unauthorized agents on behalf of their account operations. I have been doing all of my due diligence that's feasibly possible for myself under the current set of circumstances, by previously sending off copies of all of my correspondences & supporting documentation findings involved with the situation as a whole to my local law enforcementagency who is The XXXX County North Carolina Sheriff'sOffice ( as well as to other governmental agencies, such as the FBI 's internet related based crime reporting service under the IC3.gov 's web portal informationsubmission system & also too the FTC.gov'sreporting scams & fraud web portal information submission service ), this is all in addition too as well as submitting pertinent information regarding the situation with all of the other related financialagencies & institutions relatedto the matter too accordingly. I will be looking forward to hearing back the responses accordingly from the other businesses, organizations, entities, & agencies that are all involved too in the related situation at this point in time, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- - Cash SupportXXXXXXXX XXXX ( 5 hours ago ) tome from : Cash SupportXXXXto : '' XXXX '' XXXX date : XX/XX/2020, XXXXXXXX XXXXsubject : RE : Sending a Payment [ ref : XXXX : ref ] mailed-byXXXXby : cash.appsecurity : Standard encryption ( TLS ) Learn more : Important mainly because you often read messages with this label.Hi there, We compared the transaction you brought to our attention with your account history.

I will be uploading all of the requested documentation here, as well as the supplemental supporting documentation too for the record. I would also like to hear from someone specifically at CashApp 's legal team side if that's possible under the circumstances for advice on the situationoverall as well. Thanks very much for your time, -XXXX XXXX XXXX 1. Specifically the following transactions to this account on the following dates & times ( NOTE : I don't know absolutely for sure at this point if the one on XXXX @ XXXX for {$30.00} was trulylegitimate either or not due to in light of the recent circumstances but I'd like to therefore also include it potentiallyin the review process as a side note too overall at this point in time ) : XXXX @ XXXX XXXX for {$150.00} USD with internal identifier as # XXXX ( the note for this transaction says " for XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. " ). There's an extra note here to be included with this one above because the one transaction that was related to it previously noted below to this beforehand was supposed to have been internally blocked/bounced apparently accoring to his chat messages that he sent me but besides a prompt screen of 'are you sure ' of sorts in the CashApp on the above transaction I was not otherwise notified & I was told by him proxying a supposed support session with you all at CashApp support at the time that I should receive the money that supposedly bounced back to the originating account within 3 business days ; but he adamantly stated to me in writing ( see whole chat conversation in .doc attached documentaion notes ) that he had contacted CashApp support ( & was also contacted via phone ) in order to get his account de-flagged and received the monies. However, all of this could have been false from what I now know under the circumstances, plus too he never ended up actually sending me any of the supporting documentation for this, even after I had specifically requested it to be forwarded to me multipletimes in writing from him because he had so offered to send me a forwarded copy of the support resolution email containing the support instance ID & the employee information that assisted him with this supposed support inquiry from on his side ). XXXX @ XXXXXXXX XXXX for {$150.00} USD with internal identifier as # XXXX ( noted as " for XXXX XXXX from restaurantincident. " ). XXXX @ XXXXXXXX XXXX for {$150.00} USD with internal identifier as # XXXX ( noted as " for I wish him the best. " ). XXXX @ XXXXXXXX XXXX for {$40.00} USD with internal identifier as # XXXX ( noted as " for final out. " ). XXXX @ XXXXXXXX XXXX for {$85.00} USD with internal identifier as # XXXX ( noted as " for XXXX XXXX w/ post init hold. " ). XXXX XXXX @ XXXX XXXX for {$50.00} USD with internal identifier as # XXXX ( noted as " for XXXX XXXX XXXX " ). And finally, also potentially for the transaction from XXXX @ XXXXXXXX XXXX for {$30.00} USD with internal identifier as # XXXX ( noted as " for bus ticket remainder. " ) .2. The itemized transaction amounts are included with the entries above, but the totals are {$660.00} USD when added up. 3. $ XXXX 4. I do sincerely believe, that at this point in time, and combined with fair supporting documentation in that regard, that I have been scammed by this person, specifically in the form of a relationship type of scam on a macro level & if not just on that level alone, also too a case of a potentially compromised set of broad level accounts and therefore potentially identity theft aspects as well. His XXXX profile & XXXX accounts ( our primary means of communication these days generally ) have been either blocked intentionally from his end or somehow internally suspended on XXXX 's side from what I can tell at the current moment. This is at least what I can tell/see on my end because it errors out & clears off any remaining messages that I attempted to send to hisaccount queue after a certain point. My sincerest apologies as well with the reply delay, there's a LOT of documentation to account for in this case ; also, if there is some duplication here & there with the documentation, my apologies on that as well. Also, if you happen to need the entire native HTML export copies of the XXXX XXXXconversationhistory between me & him vs via a copy & paste to a doc job I can certainly procure that for you with some time, I'm currently doing an whole information archival zip for download on XXXX now & it should be available for me to pull from by the next time that we get in contact with each other if you need to ask for it specifically. All of the files attached should be in common formats for easier review : .jpg ( s ), .png ( s ), .doc ( s ), .xlsx ( s ), & .pdf ( s ). I have also recently attempted to reach out to my local authorities ( XXXX XXXX NC Sheriff 's Office in this case since I live out in the county vs in the city seat ) via their local sharedXXXX web portal with XXXX PD tosubmit a case record, it isseeminglyerroring out though unfortunately, even after multiple attempts to do so & even using the generic contact us function of the website 's form software errors out too ; If I absolutely had to at thisrate I'll just print everything off documentation & evidence wise & hand deliver it in a large documentstyle envelope to them, our county is still kinda old school in ways like that, even with some technology presence. I remembered that they do have a generic contact email box for inquiries though & will be sending a copy of this initialsubmission to it, hopefully for review accordingly. I will also be contacting my connected debit card servicer & accounts bank that's connected to my CashApp 's service ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ) to schedulean arrangement for an individual 's account audit next week at this point in time since I have been scammed multiple times over the last couple of years, including even being personally taken advantage of big time monetarily from a former friend of mine who lived with me for a while when I lived at my XXXX XXXX old house in XXXX NC, but then ended up getting really bad off on XXXX & then XXXX XXXX from me behind my back all before I finally got the chance to kick him out ( that's also documentable too at this point but on another note for my legal counsel & authorities to sort out ). This entire process and season lately has been really difficult & painful for me overall too because I have lost multiple jobs this year XXXX along with all of my insurances that went along with them since those are so tied up to jobs here in the US under the American benefits system ) during this ongoing covid-19 pandemic crisis era due to both my severe XXXX & XXXX XXXX deterioration. I have even had to find legal counsel all on my own to apply for XXXX XXXX & to actually have even a slim a chance at even getting it since I'm still classified as very XXXX in chronological age ; as well as going through the processes of applying for my state 's XXXX & XXXXXXXX XXXX programs the most recently. Last year I made my XXXX as my XXXX & XXXX powers of attorney for myself, in a near divination move seeing as how things are at present too. At this current rate I may even need to go into a XXXX agreement too, but that's for all of my legal counsel to decide collectively at this rate cumulatively. I also had a pretty nasty falling out too with a former XXXX of mine in XXXX, right around the time when I ended up with XXXX myself on top of all of that. The mobile device that I use is my primary device for CashApp services and is a XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX with all the latest patches installed from the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( with XXXX XXXX ), & latest system XXXX update.

To whom it may concern : This letter is to inform you that I have been a victim of fraud and identity theft. Someone unknown to me has been able to compromise my Cash App account. I wanted to allow an investigation to be completed before I reached out via mail. On XX/XX/XXXX at approximately XXXX hours, I received a text message from Cash App that my phone number had been unlinked from my Cash App account. I immediately logged in from my phone using my fingerprint ID. Once in, I noticed that the phone number had been changed to XXXX. After reviewing, I had limited access to my account. Next, I checked to see if anything else had changed. I noticed I had a balance in the amount of {$2200.00}. I knew something was wrong because I do not keep cash in my account. I scrolled down to see what was going on and learned that my 5 stocks : XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX had all been sold. I tried to cash out since it was my money, but it kept asking me to enter a pin that I did not have because it had been changed. At that point, I was left hopeless and helpless not having access to my account. I could only watch MY money be transferred to someone I did not know by the name of XXXX XXXX. It happened in 3 transactions {$29.00}, {$500.00}, and {$1700.00}. To add insult to injury they had the audacity to give a thumbs up after the first payment was received on their end. I requested a refund. The message that I received from Cash App was, Scam reported. Cash App is working to get back your $ XXXX Identifier # XXXX, $ XXXX Identifier # XXXX, and $ XXXX Identifier # XXXX all sources were cash. I then blocked XXXX XXXX. I called Cash App approximately five times at different times. There is/was no customer service. I have emailed several times and have yet to get a response. I filed a police report with the XXXX Police Department. I filed a report with the FTC. I filed a complaint with the XXXX and XXXX XXXX. I did not authorize any transactions on or after this date and I did not authorize anyone else to use my information in any way. I checked my account daily in hopes that a refund would be processed. I did receive a message from Cash App on the app that I would hear a response by XX/XX/XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX, I received a call from one of my friends asking me if I had requested {$300.00} from her via Cash App. I told her no that my account had been compromised. When I checked my Cash App app, I realized the person had more information than just Cash App. They used a picture of my son from XXXX XXXX. They used his picture to try and get money from everyone that I have made a transaction with. Requesting money in the amount of {$300.00}. Not only was this embarrassing, but the feeling of being violated is unexplainable. Cash App requires you to enter all your personal information, and now this person has it as well. This is a breach of contract. I received a message from XXXX XXXX for unusual activity, again not me. Later that day at approx. XXXX hours I reached out to Square Inc. for a second time and spoke with a representative by the name of XXXX. I explained to her my situation and she assured me that there was no legal department that I would be able to speak with and that Square Inc, is not responsible for Cash App even though they are the parent company, they are not fully involved. She told me the only way for me to contact Cash App is through their support recorded line or email. If I were not satisfied, I could proceed with getting an attorney. It would not be until then that Square Inc. would get involved. At approx. XXXX hours on the same date, I called XXXX XXXX and spoke to a representative by the name of XXXX. He stated he would escalate this matter. He suggested I reach out to Cash App via email and leave my name, phone number and email. He assured me someone would follow up with me within 24-48 hours. On XX/XX/XXXX at approx. 0837 hours, I received a call ( XXXX ) from a man stating he was a representative from Cash App. I thought WOW that was fast. He stated he was following up with me about my account. He asked me to verify my phone number and email that I had linked to Cash App. He asked me what was going on. The call was disconnected. I called back but no answer. I tried again at approx. 1012 hours and during the conversation he told me that the only way that I would be able to receive my money is for him to trace it and the only way this would happen is, I would have to download an app. In the search bar I would have to type in support help and then an app called team viewer would appear. I began downloading it, but the more he talked, and I began to ask questions, I told him I did not feel comfortable giving him remote access to my phone since I was already a victim. He hung up. I called back twice. He blocked me and it stated that the phone number was no longer in service. On XX/XX/XXXX ( approx. 14 days later ) I looked at my Cash App account and the message stated it I would have a response by the end of the day about my refund. On XX/XX/XXXX, I checked, and it stated, Scam Reported. We are truly sorry, but we were unable to recover your money. However, your report will help to prevent future scams. Thank you. Refund Declined. I am reaching out after a poor decision on your end was made. I was hoping that you would be able to resolve this matter professionally, but since you not only denied something that was done in error to me you failed to protect me. To have a Cash App account I have had to give all my personal information, name date of birth, social, address, phone number, bank information including routing numbers and account number, and debit card number. Now someone has access to all this information and even with my two-way identifier that I had on my account, someone was still able to change my personal information that was supposed to be secured and they gained access to my account. After the damage was done, they proceeded to try and access my other accounts outside of cash app. I am holding your company FULLY responsible. I trusted that Cash App was secure and encrypted based on your word. I used this account as an emergency fund account as we are in a global pandemic. Every day that the stock market goes up, my family and I are going without. I am a single mother of 5, and I am on a fixed income as I am only able to work part time because I must be home to home-school. According to your General Terms of Service last updated on XX/XX/XXXX, it states on # 3 In case of errors or questions about your account call us at XXXX, please note ( 1 ) this is the only phone number customers can call for Cash App support, and ( 2 ) a Cash App representative will never ask you for your password, PIN, social security number or full debit card number. Or write us at Square, Inc., XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, CA XXXX as soon as you can if you think an error has occurred in your Account.

I am asking that you stand on your word. I have followed your policy. I made attempts to contact you thru your preferred method via email to no avail. I have also attempted to reach you via email, and XXXX, and you leave misleading information. I am now putting it in writing. I have tried to call. I notified you through the app and you denied without circumstances. I did not authorize any of these transactions nor am I the one who sold and cashed out my stocks.

I am asking that you comply with the Electronic Fund Transfer Act and send me a letter explaining your findings and action. Send me written confirmation that the account has been closed, a check be mailed out since I no longer trust Cash App and it is no longer safe. I am holding you responsible for the fake scammers that constantly call trying to retrieve information, access the information on my phone, sending money request to my family and friends and now the inconvenience of having to change my whole life around. I have had to get a new cell phone because someone was able to access my phone remotely, create new emails, cancel cards and get new ones because someone has tried to open accounts in my name. The fact that someone called after reading my email and I trusted them makes me wonder how this company is legit. With Cash App being so secured, how does one have all this access to my account. I have provided all the scammers information. How did my refund get denied? Is this why you state in your policy that we must waive our rights to go to court? Is Cash App a legal hustle? On XX/XX/XXXX, I sent a Certified demand letter to the company with a signature required with a return receipt. I still have not heard back from them. My next step is to take legal action.

XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX, a husband and wife, credible persons of lawful age, who being by me first duly sworn, on their oaths, depose and say : On XX/XX/XXXX and XXXX, XXXX, also on XX/XX/XXXX - Cyber Criminals posing as 'CashApp Customer Support ' did unlawfully and without our permission sell and withdraw XXXX Assets totaling {$33000.00} USD without our consent, in pretense of verifying a linked account. CashApp Account Holder : XXXX XXXX CashApp Account ID : $ XXXX RE : XXXX Case No XXXX Testator 's Statement of Facts : On XX/XX/XXXX I, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX realized I'd misplaced my CashApp Debit Card , and so I ordered another one. The new card arrived on XX/XX/XXXX. To activate this new card, my wife and I decided to " talk to human beings ''. In order to ensure the old card was deactivated. We looked up the number on XXXX, and it came right up as XXXX XXXX XXXX. We then called this number. The customer support person, told us to QR Scan the code of the new card, which we did. He then said, " Your card is active, but your account needs to be verified. The First Scammer identified himself as " CashApp XXXX '' Employee Number : XXXX " He told us to go to XXXX to download " XXXX XXXX '' App. He explained that since CashApp was having so many scams, this was their new protocol for verifying user accounts. He logged on to XXXX and asked us to " accept his request ''. Please keep in mind, Medical Professionals have asked us to download applications so they could work with us remotely because of the pandemic. So " XXXX 's '' request didn't seem out of the ordinary. He came onto the XXXX XXXX application and was Immediately able to grab approximately {$12000.00} from our XXXX account. We, likewise, immediately, threw up a " Suspicious Activity '' flag inside of CashApp. The fake CashApp Employee " XXXX '' was able to see the Suspicious Activity Flag we raised. At the time, we had no idea whether he was an actual CashApp employee in on the scam, or was he aware of because he could see what happened through the XXXX XXXX XXXX. In any case, he said the reason that he could not return the {$12000.00} in XXXX right away was because we froze the account during the verification process. Now we would have to wait 24 hours for the flag to clear. He said that if we " did anything else to follow up with CashApp we could lose those funds '', because they were caught in a buffer caused by the Suspicious Activity Flag. He said he would call us back tomorrow and finish the verification process after the flag was removed from the account. We asked him what kind of problem could make this happen money getting " lost or stuck '' in the verification process, their cover story. ) He said it was a very big problem FOR America. All we knew for certain at that moment was that significant amount of money was taken by multiple foreign individuals with heavy accents. We could hear many other customer support persons ( all men ) loudly in the background saying the same things regarding the remote access program, and what was happening with the caller 's accounts. This is a well staffed outfit that had many phone scammers in one physical location. It sounded like a low budget call center, with several other support persons who were very audible to us, making it harder to hear what the person on the line with us was saying clearly. We should also note that on the first night of this occurrence, XX/XX/XXXX - the first " support person '' tried to get me, XXXX XXXX, to give him remote access to my XXXX Bank account. When I refused, this person remotely, literally scrolled through the apps on my phone, opened up my banking app and told me to enter my password because that's " where the refund had to go ''. We disconnected from remote access immediately at that point. Truthfully, we weren't at all convinced any of this was legitimate, but what felt we had no other options. We hoped that we were overreacting, and perhaps convinced ourselves that we were. On the evening of XX/XX/XXXX - I, XXXX XXXX, fell asleep early. Apparently there had been several calls from " XXXX '' that I'd missed. When I, XXXX XXXX, came upstairs to our bedroom I heard the phone ring. I answered the call, it was a CashApp " Supervisor '' named " XXXX '' wanting to " return our funds ''. I woke my husband and explained who was on the phone. I, XXXX XXXX, spoke with XXXX who instructed me to open the XXXX XXXX app so he could " finish the verification and return the $ 12,000.00USD taken from your XXXX account ''. We voiced our concerns about the legitimacy of this whole process, and " XXXX '' gave us kind words of reassurance, stating that we had nothing to worry about. Eventually, we felt more convinced and complied. Obviously, we were completely taken in by " XXXX '' and all his kind words of reassurance because we had plenty to worry about. As he opened the account to " finish verifying it ', he drained the rest of it. Then he curtly informed us that they got {$31000.00} from our account. He disconnected and was gone. Truthfully, we are not sure that was the total taken, As the funds were in XXXX, they were subject to real time market fluctuations. When we add up all the legitimate withdrawals ( that aren't part of their shell game ), our total is {$33000.00} USD ( which includes another {$100.00} taken on XX/XX/XXXX ). On XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX AM We received another call from the scammers. This time a " CashApp Supervisor trying to regain remote access to the another account. When we told him that remote access was never happening again, he started yelling at us that we " couldn't do anything about it '', then hung up. It was new number with the same exchange. XXXX XXXX XXXX. The main Scam " Customer Support '' Number is XXXX XXXX XXXX. They also called us back from a variety of area code XXXX numbers. When we called some of these numbers back ( listed below ), a voicemail message said : " The 'TEXT MAIL ' subscriber you are trying to reach is not available ''. ( XXXX ) XXXX and ( XXXX ) XXXX and ( XXXX ) XXXX. We sent these details to the XXXX MA Police as they occurred, to document all that was happening. Evident from the " List of Unauthorized Transactions '', it was very much like watching a " XXXX XXXX '' swindle. Everything happened so fast - the CashApp transaction list times show just how fast it happened. It should also be noted that those times are listed in Pacific Daylight Time, but we experienced them all in Massachusetts ' local time, Eastern Daylight Savings time. We called the XXXX XXXX XXXX Attorney XXXX XXXX, who told us to file a report with our local police dept. On XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX PM we made contact with our local XXXX Police. and what their role was in the situation. We explained that we were trying to notify local law enforcement about a cyber crime - financial fraud / theft of {$31000.00} ( Amended Amount : {$33000.00} ) through a CashApp scam. We explained that we had filed a report with CashApp, and also filed a report online with the Massachusetts District Attorney 's XXXX XXXX XXXX. We also explained that the stolen funds were our house down payment - our landlord wants to sell the rental property we live in, located at XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX MA. We have been asked to move, so we are really in very bad situation The XXXX MA Police Sgt came on XX/XX/XXXX We gave him our information and told him what happened. Theft of {$31000.00} U.S. Dollars sourced from a XXXX account ( Amended Amount : {$33000.00} ) by way of an insidious and widespread CashApp Scam, wherein the criminal parties impersonate CASHAPP customer support, after consumers having been directed to them by a XXXX XXXX response for : Cash App Customer Support telephone number. We have since come to understand that the SCAM Number is a paid Advertisement through XXXX ( which, in our opinion, makes them complicit ). There are web pages everywhere on the internet running this fake CASH APP customer support telephone number : XXXX XXXX XXXX. These look-alike pages contain both true information ( customer service available through the CASHAPP ) and false information ( Customer Support : XXXX XXXX XXXX ) so to the unsuspecting consumer, it appears to be legitimate information. On XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX PM We received another call from the same scammers, again we informed the XXXX Police. We also informed them that we'd heard from XXXX 'Mayor 's Office of Consumer Information ' ( MOCI ) who informed us that our case had been sent by the Massachusetts Attorney General 's XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX them to begin the preliminary investigation, which is the standard protocol. XXXX asked us to send a copy of the Police Report along with all our other documentation to them. Whilst trying to figure out the theft transactions, we noticed another {$100.00} was taken on XX/XX/XXXX. This happened because I, XXXX XXXX XXXX, had a recurring monthly bill that I usually paid from the CashApp Account. The creditor had tried several times to process the charge and it was declined for insufficient funds each time. So to cover that bill, I put {$100.00} from my now defunct XXXX Checking Acct into the CashApp Acct. However, the thieves got to it before the creditor. The thieves bought {$100.00} worth of XXXX, and exported it to an undisclosed XXXX XXXX. This confirmed to us that the CashApp account and any linked accounts ( in our case, XXXX Checking, and XXXX ), was forever compromised. Unfortunately, we did not err on the side of caution and the thieves grabbed more. We had to send a reminder message to our local police about the report. We explained that were waiting on the XXXX MA Police Report for this incident XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. On XXXX XXXX, XXXX, An Officer came to our home to deliver the report to us. He told us the report was scant because the " feds are handling it ''. However, The report had no signature, so Officer XXXX came by our house on XX/XX/XXXX to sign the XXXX MA Police report. We dropped of most of the material to XXXX on XXXX XX/XX/XXXX. The Affidavit/Timeline is the last document sent to XXXX. We have managed to acquire a list of all Unauthorized Transactions from the CashApp Account, as well as the Event Log from the XXXX XXXX app that was used by the XXXX Criminals to steal our funds. We are filing or have filed Fraud Complaints, along with all supporting documents, including but not limited to the agencies listed below : The FBI 's XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ), The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ), The Financial Justice Initiative Consumer Class Action litigation.

On XX/XX/XXXX, someone called my son and said that they were from CASH APP and there was some fraudulent activity reported and they needed some information from him to verify the activity. He gave them some information ( I do not know exactly what it was ) but within minutes they had 7 withdrawals from his account to people he did not know. They were : {$10.00} ( XXXX XXXX ) {$100.00} to XXXX XXXX ( XXXX XXXX ) ( $ XXXX ) {$450.00} to XXXX XXXX ( XXXX XXXX ) {$470.00} to XXXX XXXX ( XXXX XXXX ) ( $ XXXX ) {$480.00} to XXXX XXXX ( XXXX XXXX ) ( $ XXXX ) {$480.00} to XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX XXXX ) ( $ XXXX ) {$480.00} to XXXX XXXX ( XXXX XXXX ) ( $ XXXX ) My son immediately realized he had been scammed and called XXXX XXXX XXXX and reported it. They said they would refund him the money and investigate. The money did not appear in his account and he called again on XX/XX/XXXX. The bank said they had not completed a report but they would and they put the amount back in his account - {$2500.00} On XX/XX/XXXX, my son went to the store and when he came home, he said he had been scammed again. He was negative approximately {$2500.00}. When I looked at his account, it said dispute credit reversal. We called the bank and they said that they had investigated and it was a third party situation and the third party ( Cash APP ) had enough information to prove that they were valid transactions. ( How they could decide that those amounts in a matter of minutes were valid is hard to understand- but apparently, my son confirmed something and the numbers matched. On XX/XX/XXXX, I went with my son to the bank- thinking that if I went in person it would help. I waited in the line because I was told the only way to speak to a manager is to wait in line for the teller. When we discussed the situation with her she said, The bank { where she was } does not handle fraud concerns and that it was already settled. She said the bank could not do anything about it and we had to take it up with the third party which was CASH APP itself. We asked, How do you get in touch with CASH APP- how did the bank get in touch with them? The teller said she did not know and that we should google the number for CASH APP Support. We went outside and my son googled CASH APP Customer Service Phone number ( see attached ) The man on the phone was apologetic that we had been scammed and said he would refund the money immediately. He asked for my sons CASH APP account information but was unable to deposit money into it because it had been closed down. He wanted to put it into my sons bank account but that was unavailable because it was in the negative. He told my son to go to the app store on his phone and download this XXXX XXXX app. He then said since I had a CASH APP account he could put the money in my account and then I could transfer to my son. He had me download the XXXX app. ( I often use team viewer and other apps at work where the other party can see what is on my computer and help so I did not think this was unusual ). The man said, OK we have to see if this works. He kept having me go through multiple steps and since I was not familiar with the CASH APP program, I was just following his instructions ; go to the clock on the far right, go to the profile on the top right, go to the symbol on the far left oh its not working- close the app and re- open. He said all these different things multiple times. He said he had to make sure he could deposit the money so he said go to the To space and type COI. He said this was customer assistance. He said type XXXX and hit send. He said then he would send it back to me to see if it worked. Whenever it failed, he said oh we would have to try again. He said type in XXXX - I said who is that? He said it was a representative at CASH APP. He kept doing this telling me what to do and back and forth. When I asked what we were doing, he said you want to get the money back dont you? What were the amounts that were taken? I gave him all the details. Then he asked what my routing number was. I said I didnt know off hand. He said to go to my bank app - I do not know if I did when he was on my screen or not but then he said, Oh type in this number and it was my routing number he knew it. Then he had me type in my bank account number and I did. At this point, I started getting nervous about why this was taking so long and why I was typing these things, he kept saying one more thing one more time. I went into the bank to ask for help. I had to wait in line again everyone in the bank could see I was very distraught- a woman let me get in from of her when I got to the teller she said were you the next in line? I said, No, she was but she let me ahead. She said, No, I have to take people in order. I went and sat down in a chair and started speaking very loudly on the phone asking why is he having me send to these people I dont know. He said they worked for the company and he was trying to help me. I said, No I am not sending to these people. He said, who else is on your CASH APP? I said, My daughter. He said, OK you trust her send the money to her to see if we can send it back to you. He had me send amounts to her and then he said call her or text her and tell her to send it back to you. I did this twice. I texted her and told her to send it back to me. She was in class and texted back- that she didnt think this was right why was I sending her this I said just send it back to me we are trying to get back the money that was taken from your brother. She did it a few times and then he said to do it again this time for {$990.00} and for {$700.00}. She started getting annoyed. The man kept saying just text her tell her one last time tell her to send it back right away. I said I dont think this is right He said well you called us we didnt call you. I said I want to speak to a manager. He got another man on the phone ; He started doing the same thing. I tried to get help again from the bank. They refused to get involved or even see what was happening. Finally, my boss and my daughter sent me links or messages that said there is no such thing as a phone number for CASH APP support - you can only get help through email. At this point, either the man hung up or we got disconnected. ( We had gotten disconnected twice and he had called back ) I went back to the bank and asked to speak to the manager. I said I wanted to close my accounts. The teller came back with 6 slips ( of the 6 accounts that I have ) and said you can close them all but two because there were pending issues. One was my account that had pending CASH APP Mya for {$990.00}, one for {$790.00} and one for {$700.00}. I knew these were not valid, but the person at the bank said we cant do anything until they clear. I said, But I dont want them to clear, they are fraudulent transactions. The bank representative said he couldnt do anything. I called XXXX XXXX when I got home. After waiting XXXX minutes I spoke to someone explained what happened. She said she would stop my debit card and reissue a new one. She said probably the three pending CASH App charges would not go through. If they did to call back to XXXX. Emails that I was able to see after this all happened I did not see this while I was on the phone with this man. 1. Cash App XXXX requested {$100.00} I sent XXXX $ coosed {$100.00} ( this was what was in my account ) I need this back 2. Cash App XXXX XXXX $ XXXX - sent me {$98.00} and then next it said failed. 3. Cash App {$550.00} to XXXX $ XXXX ( I didn't see this XXXX at the time or I would have hung up immediately ) 4. Cash App payment failed to XXXX. 5. Cash App XXXX XXXX requested {$420.00} for refund ( he was telling me to write in refund because I was getting the money back ) 6. Cash App I sent {$420.00} to XXXX XXXX for refund. ( $ XXXX ) 7. Cash App Email says Cash refunded request from $ XXXX " For your protection, your {$420.00} payment to XXXX XXXX was refunded, {$420.00} has been returned to your bank account and will be available Thursday '' ( I don't know what this means ) 8. Cash App you sent {$990.00} to XXXX XXXX XXXX ( This is my XXXX ) Completed amount. 9. Cash App payment from XXXX XXXX She sent the money back as requested. 10. Cash App XXXX XXXX requested {$990.00} from me ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ). I do not know who this is. I did not see this email until after I was off the phone. 11. Cash App - It says I sent {$990.00} to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. I did not do this! 12. Cash App " you sent {$1400.00} to XXXX XXXX 13. Cash App XXXX XXXX Payment of {$1400.00} cash refunded to me.

Cash App " XXXX requested {$700.00} '' 27. Cash App " XXXX XXXX sent you {$700.00} 28. Cash App XXXX request from XXXX XXXX {$700.00} XXXX refunded for your protection 29. Cash App XXXX XXXX XXXX requested {$700.00}. XXXX XXXX request for {$700.00}. 30. Cash App you sent {$700.00} to XXXX XXXX XXXX ( NO I DID NOT ) 31. Cash App XXXX XXXX XXXX requested {$600.00} XXXX XXXX 32. Cash App XXXX XXXX XXXX canceled a request for {$700.00} There were three pending transactions in my bank account. They were all to CASH APPXXXX XXXX one for {$990.00}, one for {$790.00}, one for XXXX XXXXI called the bank and told them to stop these but they went through to whoever was doing this. They did not go to my daughter XXXX. I called the bank back and told them these were fraudulent. I got a letter in return saying no errors had occurred. I can prove that these did not go to my daughter by showing her bank statements. I was able to find out from CASH APP that the first amount went to XXXX XXXX someone named XXXX XXXX XXXX . I do not know who this is. I was only able to find this out in an email that I received from CASH APP when I complained to them via email. I do not know who the other amounts went to- {$990.00} and {$790.00}. I sent several additional emails to CASH APP to find out about these two and only got cursory emails telling me how to protect my CASH APP account. I appealed the decision that the bank made when it allowed the amounts to be deducted. They gave me a temporary credit on XX/XX/XXXX. However, on or around XX/XX/XXXX they sent a letter again saying they did not find any errors on the merchants part and they were withdrawing the amount they had credited. So the bank will not credit me with the money I was scammed out of and CASH APP will not give me the money I was scammed out of- I appealed to the consumer protection division of the state but I was told this was not the correct avenue. I don't know where else to go with this. I know now that you can't talk to someone from CASH APP but I didn't know that then.

XXXX XXXX contacted me via a social media forum called XXXX XXXX. When he learned, I was planning to renovate my home, he advised me he was an experienced contractor and that could handle the job. In fact, he said my job was so easy and small that he would normally not accept such a job. He lied and said he had handled many jobs before ( up to three hundred ). He had a XXXX page for his supposed business, XXXX XXXX. On it were photos stolen from other pages/people and his former employers. He lied and said he had renovated 300 homes. He had actually only ever renovated ONE home, his father 's home, which he inherited upon his father 's death and " flipped '' to sell. He also told me he had worked with his " subcontractors '' for 30 years - that was also a lie. Most of them had never met him until this job ( and even they agreed that he had no idea what he was doing ). I signed a contract for {$74000.00} for all agreed renovations, with credit to me if I purchased any materials or paid for any labor directly. The first thing XXXX XXXX did BEFORE WE EVER SIGNED THE CONTRACT was to ask me for a check for {$10000.00}, claiming he had already spent {$10000.00} on material orders ( he had not, he had only spent slightly under {$3000.00} ). After I handed him the check, he went into my restroom, deposited it via remote deposit ( unbeknownst to me ), then came out and said that he didn't like to be paid with checks and asked if I would pay him with my debit card instead, via his Square XXXX ( which was registered as " XXXX XXXX, '' his supposed business ). I agreed and took the check back, tore it in two and placed it back in my check book. It was my understanding that he was not going to deposit the check. I even voided it in my check register. I paid him {$10000.00} via Square to his company, XXXX XXXX, not knowing he had surreptitiously also deposited the {$10000.00} check. I was shocked and dismayed to later see that he had deposited the check AND took {$10000.00} via Square. He only had the check in his hands for perhaps 15 minutes, never left my home with it, and handed it back to me advising that he had not cashed it. I tore it in two, saved it, and voided that transaction in my checking ledger. XXXX XXXX deposited all of my construction monies into his personal bank account, which is a violation of Texas law. He did not keep track of spending, nor did he provide receipts, but kept asking for more money. By now they had done demolition and much of my house had no walls, floors, sinks, toilets, etc. I kept paying because I had already invested so much, I was afraid to back out. We quickly surpassed the agreed {$74000.00} contracted agreement. XXXX XXXX NEVER issued me ANY invoices or change orders. I began to get suspicious when I paid him money to pay subcontractors or buy material and the subcontractors were never paid and materials never purchased. I had to pay subcontractors personally and also buy materials using my debit cards. He even bounced checks to subcontractors after I had paid him to pay them, because he had spent the money on himself. In total, I gave XXXX XXXX {$52000.00} - most of which he deposited into his personal checking account with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. I do not know why he spent it on. At least {$23000.00} ( and likely more ) was never accounted for in any way. For at least that much money ( and likely more money, as he did multiple very devious things that led me to believe that even money that was allegedly accounted for was actually never spent on my home renovation. I paid XXXX XXXX for at least {$23000.00} in products and services that were never rendered ( and likely more ). Beginning on approximately XX/XX/2021, XXXX XXXX essentially stopped paying for anything. He also purchased materials with my money and then returned them and kept the money or credit ( and did not return that cash or credit to me or credit my account ). He also purchased materials with my money and then took them to his mother 's home ( where he lived ) and also used them on other unrelated projects ( like insulation or HVAC work for other clients ). This was witnessed by subcontractors. XXXX XXXX was extremely deceptive, evasive, and dishonest. When I confronted XXXX XXXX or asked for an accounting or receipts, he either accused me of being XXXX, made me feel guilty, became irate and threatening, or attempted to cajole and flirt with me. At one point he gave me a pair of XXXX with his photo on them, which made me extremely uncomfortable. He would also promise to provide receipts or accounting, but ultimately perpetually stall and evade doing so. Ultimately, I have already spent well over {$100000.00} on this project and will need about another {$50000.00} to complete and fix the mess that he left. Again, {$52000.00} of that went STRAIGHT TO XXXX XXXX. AND AGAIN, HE NEVER FINISHED THE WORK, HE JUST QUIT, LEAVING ME WITH NO MONEY AND ONLY 2 OF 7 ROOMS FINISHED. He also stole other things from me, including a television, a gold coin from my grandfather, and about {$8000.00} ( US value ) in foreign currency, as well as one XXXX package and one package from XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX. He also stole construction materials. Some of XXXX XXXX transactions were unauthorized completely ( like the check that he sneakily remotely deposited which I did not authorize him to deposit, in addition to multiple debit card transactions ), while other transactions were authorized but the monies were not spent on what we had agreed the monies were intended for ( he would buy items I had not authorized the purchase of ), and/or the services and products that I paid for via those transactions were never provided or rendered to me ( he simply stole the money, diverting it for his own use ). He also took money I paid or authorized payment of to pay subcontractors and then never paid the subcontractors, instead keeping the money for himself. XXXX XXXX made a total of {$30000.00} in charges on my debit card via his Square Application, using the name XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX is XXXX XXXX, and XXXX XXXX is XXXX XXXX. Again, ultimately, I have already spent well over {$100000.00} on this project and will need about another {$50000.00} to complete and fix the mess that he left. Of the {$52000.00} that went directly to XXXX XXXX, {$30000.00} was taken via his Square Application, and not all of those transactions were authorized, nor did I receive the services or materials that I paid for via those payments. Another {$10000.00} was taken via the unauthorized check. The remaining {$12000.00} was paid in cash payments ( he would demand cash and then was always with me when I withdrew such cash, so that he could take it immediately ), or via ATM withdrawals that he made himself from my account. You can tell that he did so because those withdrawals were made at banks I have never used before in my life, which are nowhere near my home- and surely security footage would show him doing so. XXXX XXXX NEVER FINISHED THE RENOVATION ON MY HOME, AS WHEN I REALIZED WHAT HE WAS DOING AND DEMANDED HE ACCOUNT FOR MY MONEY OR RETURN IT ( AND LATER REPORTED HIM TO LAW ENFORCEMENT ), HE QUIT THE PROJECT, FAILING TO REFUND ANY OF THE MONIES PAID, LEAVING ME WITH NO MONEY AND ONLY 2 OF 7 ROOMS IN MY HOUSE FINISHED. I HAVE BEEN LIVING IN A SMALL BEDROOM SINCE APPROXIMATELY XX/XX/2021, WITH NO KITCHEN OR MASTER BATHROOM AND MANY OF THE ROOMS IN MY HOUSE WITHOUT PAINT, FLOORS, DOORS, OR FIXTURES. He also stole other things from me, including a television, a gold coin from my grandfather, and about {$8000.00} ( US value ) in foreign currency, as well as one XXXX package and one package from XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX. He also stole construction materials. When I met XXXX XXXX, I had {$140000.00} in my bank account, and had additional deposits of over $ XXXX {$40000.00} during the 6-10 weeks we knew each other. I now have about {$100.00} in my bank account. XXXX XXXX saved my debit card information in his Square App and wrote down the code on the back without my knowledge or permission, so that he could make additional withdrawals without my presence or having my debit card in his possession. He also provided my debit card information to subcontractors, who then made purchases of which I have no idea were. And again, he withdrew cash from my account without providing materials or labor for those funds, or even telling me he was doing so. Eventually I took my debit card away from him I asked for it back long before I got it back. Then I reported him to local law enforcement from the parking lot of my local XXXX XXXX bank. XXXX XXXX also got onto my phone and attempted to enter my social media and other accounts. He watched me enter my code and later used it to get onto my phone. He also asked to use my laptop. I also found packages addressed to me which had been delivered to my home in XXXX XXXX vehicle and home. I am XXXX and XXXX. I have a severe brain injury. XXXX XXXX took advantage of this. I have lost my life savings. I am devastated. And I am not the first-person XXXX XXXX has scammed, nor will I be the last. He has been arrested and sued previously for theft and fraud and tax issues, and there are several reviews online that state he took money for repairs he never completed. And again, he was claiming unemployment the whole time he was working on my job ( in reality, he never did any actual work ), just shopped with my money. XXXX XXXX had no income during the time we knew each other. He was unemployed and claiming unemployment weekly - but had been denied and was waiting for an appeal hearing. I reported his unemployment fraud to the State of Texas. XXXX XXXX, doing business as XXXX, used my money as his own personal piggy bank, and when caught attempted to turn the situation around and make himself look like a victim. XXXX XXXX also forged my signature on an altered contract ( which can be easily proven as it was signed electronically from his home on a day I was not there and the signature looks identical to his own ), but also on credit card receipts when he made purchases using my debit card. XXXX XXXX also tried to pressure me into committing insurance fraud, saying if I did not agree to make false claims I would never get my money back and he would take half of any legitimate claim I filed ( after he caused approximately {$30000.00} of damage to my home and property and dog ). Again, when I met XXXX XXXX, I had {$140000.00} in my bank account, and had additional deposits of over $ XXXX {$40000.00} during the 6-10 weeks we knew each other. I now have about {$100.00} in my bank account. I have lost everything, my entire life savings, and so far, no one has been able to help me recover a single dime of my money. I have reported this to the local Attorney Generals office, to the local District Attorneys office, to the Federal Trade Commission, to the Better Business Bureau, to the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, to the local XXXX, and to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, as well as to both my bank, XXXX XXXX, and to Square. Both XXXX XXXX AND Square have REFUSED to refund any unauthorized transactions and any and all transactions in which I never received the services or products I paid for. XXXX XXXX

Requested refund for scam charge of {$1200.00}. We purchased a puppy from them off of XXXX. https : XXXX We paid {$1200.00} and dog has several birth defects. I looked up and the individual has no license that I can find for Texas. The vet stated that the dog has a birth defect hernia and small nasal passages. This something that a vet and breeder should have identified prior to sale. I paid via CASHAPP to XXXX XXXX at $ XXXX I have contacted the breeder at the provided phone number XXXX and have not received a response. I contacted CashApp, and they stated to request a refund from the vendor but stated they will not assist outside of the request. The vendor has not responded to my text or cash app request. This vendor is not in compliance with Cash Apps Terms and Conditions and operating as a business under a individual users account. CashApp Vendor First of all, the Vendor that used the CashApp application is fake and not an authentic company or vendor with CashApp. The transaction was a scam conducted through a secure banking transaction via CashApp. CashApp has the contact information and banking information for both the Seller/Vendor ( XXXX XXXX ) and the customer, myself. Upon investigated it was determined by me and the Texas Department of Licensing & Regulation that XXXX XXXX is not a licensed breeder in the state of Texas. In fact, the contact information provide is fake. The phone number and email provided are not genuine contact information. At this point, I have no way of contacting CashApps vendor. CashApp responses Denied request to work with a single representative At this point, CashApp has randomly provided me with 20 different representatives. Every response is from a different representative who is looking at my case for the first time. I have provided the emails in my documentation but so far, the names are XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX and XXXX. Closing Case CashApp continues to close my case without resolution just to clear their active tickets. My cases have been closed 3 times without any assistance or help with the fraudulent scam charge. Unable to Open Cases At this point, I am unable to open any more cases on the issue. CashApp has locked my ability to open any new tickets and will no longer address the issue with me. CashApp Solution CashApps solution to this point is to contact the vendor to resolve the dispute using the refund function and offline from CashApp. This is solution is not feasible as I have stated above and indicated with CashApp several times. I can not contact the Vendor because the contact information that I have is fake. Instead, CashApp has all of the Vendor contact information and has not provided due to privacy issues. More importantly CashApp has failed to get involved to help dispute an issue between a Vendor and Customer using their claimed secure transaction application. Terms of Service CashApp has now resulted to the legal response of provided the correct information for this issue, consistent with our Terms of Service. This is the only response that CashApp will use at this point. I see that it is consistent with a large number of complaints with the XXXX XXXX XXXX. It is clear, that CashApp has no intent on fixing the issue. I am not a lawyer and can not get into a legal debate with CashApp. Instead, I am trying use the services of XXXX to help mitigate the issue at hand. With that being said. CashApp has failed to outline how they have provided the correct information that is consistent with their Terms of Service. Therefore, I have outlined below how CashApp has failed their commitment to me as a customer. 1. General Terms of Service CashApp Account : Section III.1 Cash App Account This section states that each participant in CashApp You represent and warrant that you own the email or mobile phone number you register with and all information entered or collected in the course of creating your Account and any information you subsequently add or update from your settings ( Account Information ) is true and accurate. I have provided such information ; however, the Vendor used a fake phone and email and has violated this clause. If the email and phone number that I provided does not match the CashApp records, then the Vendor in fact has violated the CashApp terms. CashApp should get involved as indicates further that CashApp has the authority to validate the identity of all registered parties. CashApp Account : Section III.4 Unauthorized Transaction This section states We will protect you from Unauthorized Transactions in your Account. When this protection applies, we will cover you for the full amount of the Unauthorized Transaction. This transaction is not authorized, and it was a scam transaction. CashApp should get involved and issue a full refund as promised. CashApp Account : Section III.7 CashTags This section states Your Cashtag must accurately and truthfully represent your business or personal identity. You may not select a Cashtag that misleads or deceives others as to your identity or creates an undue risk of chargebacks or mistaken payments. The Vendor clearly violated this clause in that they used a Cashtag that deceived me into thinking they were a legitimate business that was previously vetted by CashApp. CashApp Account : Section III.8 Sharing of Your Information This section states We will share Account Information and transaction information, including your name, the amount, and a description, with the other party to your transaction and in accordance with our Privacy Policy. The privacy policy goes further to state that, We may share the personal information described in the Information We Collect About You section with the following categories of service providers and third parties : With other users of our Services with whom you interact through your own use of our Services. For example, we may share information with your customers when you make or accept a payment, appointment, or money transfer using our Services. I have requested the Seller contact information on many cases and CashApp has refused to provide anything. This is a violation of CashApp agreement with me as a Customer. Peer to Peer Service : Section V.8 Invalid P2P Payments This section states If you receive a P2P Payment and we later determine in our sole discretion that the P2P Payment was invalid for any reason, you hereby authorize us to move funds from the applicable Eligible Transaction Account or Eligible Credit Account in an amount equal to the P2P Payment. You acknowledge and agree that we will not be liable in any way for any P2P Payments that you may receive, regardless of whether you authorized the Sender to send them to you. If this is considered a P2P Payment, then it is invalid and CashApp should reverse this charge as the Seller was operating a business under a private account. Cash for Business : Section VII.1 Transaction Processing for Sellers of Goods or Services This Section states In connection with the Payment Services ( as defined in the Payment Terms ), you authorize us to act as your agent for the purposes of holding, receiving, and disbursing funds on your behalf. Once you have created an Account you will be able to accept payments from Cash App users for the sale of goods and services. We will, acting on your behalf, facilitate the processing of such payment transactions. We will charge you a fee for doing so. Payments from your customers, less our fee, will be deposited to your Cash App Balance. You acknowledge and agree that you may not have all features and functionality of a standard Square Account. To protect the integrity of the system and reduce risk that a transaction may be reversed or charged back to your Square Account ( a Chargeback ), in some cases where we reasonably believe a Chargeback is likely, you also direct and authorize us, as your agent, to void the transaction, rather than hold funds as described in the Payment Terms. It is clear that the Seller violated the CashApp Terms of Service by operating a Business under a Personal account. This was a business transaction. I do not know the Seller, and I have no way of contacting them. CashApp should step in and conduct a Chargeback simply because the Seller violated CashApps Terms of Service. Cash for Business : Section VII.2 Purchases from Cash for Business Sellers This section states In the event you are entitled to a reversal, refund, chargeback, or other adjustment associated with any purchase you made through Cash for Business, you also authorize a credit to the applicable Eligible Transaction Account or Eligible Credit Account to accomplish that transaction. Do to the fact that I have no way of contacting the Seller and can not resolve this issue Offline, then I am entitled to a chargeback on my VISA Debit Card. A refund must be issued. Other Legal Terms : Section VIII.1 Recovery of Funds This section states You authorize Square to recover funds from you in accordance with these Service Terms and any other agreement you have with us, including if you owe amounts to us or for reason of fraud or illegal activity. This transaction was fraudulent and a scam. CashApp needs to reverse the charge. Summary There are a few key points to take away : 1. The CashApp Vendor or Business is fake and not properly registered with the State of Texas of CashApp as a legitimate business. The transactions in question are a scam. 2. CashApp has failed to provide adequate support under their own Terms and within a general reasonable response expected by an institution conducting secure banking transactions. 3. CashApp continues to bounce me around between different service representatives. Does not have a reliable phone number to call for support and has completely blocked my ability to file claims at this point. 4. I have pointed some areas where the Terms of Service has been violated without outlining all of them. CashApp has not addressed these issues and now provides only pre-fabricated standard response.

The fraudulent agency is Square located at XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, CA XXXX ; ( XXXX ) XXXX or XXXX. I own a XXXX XXXX in FL. While my XXXX bank account is not with this agency, I have been a customer of theirs since XXXX, utilizing them as my debit/credit card processor for payments from my clients. Each time we run a client payment at my XXXX, Square then deposits the funds into my separate banking institution, a different company, the next business day. Until this past month, I have never had an issue with this company. On XX/XX/XXXX, an unknown individual " allegedly '' compromised my Square login information and attempted to " key in '' a XXXX credit card charge in the amount of {$2800.00} at XXXX ; card # ending in XXXX, Square " authorization # XXXX XXXX XXXX. This would be an unknown card holder to us and we did not run this transaction. Most of our transactions are in the amount of $ XXXX {$190.00} for a week 's XXXX fees or the equivalent for a month 's XXXX fees ( most clients pay by the week only ). Square put a notation of this " fraudulent '' transaction on my Dashboard page with them, however, they failed to notify me via email ( or phone call ), which is how they have always communicated with me in the past. I am not in the habit to view notifications in the Dashboard because of this and therefore was not aware of this " transaction '' until XX/XX/XXXX when I began to investigate why I had not received any of my deposits from my clients. I typically am notified via email immediately each time I or my staff run a client 's card. When it suddenly occurred to me on XX/XX/XXXX that I was missing funds, that is when I learned about the following story : On XX/XX/XXXX, the above referenced cardholder apparently disputed the false charge and the notice on the Dashboard acknowledges that the cardholder had no knowledge of the " authorization. '' This was definitely not a client of mine. I can see the time, the date, the amount, the last 4 digits of the card and type, as well as Square 's authorization code. Like I stated, no notification was provided to me by Square. On XX/XX/XXXX, a similar " transaction '' was keyed in for {$2800.00}, oddly {$2.00} less. This card was a Visa ending in XXXX at XXXX, authorization # XXXX, XXXX XXXX. Again, this transaction was disputed by the cardholder. Again, no notification to me from Square. As a consequence of these " disputes, '' Square then, it appears, " held '' all of my legitimate credit/debit card payments from my clients through the remainder of the month -- until I became aware and forbid my staff from taking any more payments this way until the matter was resolved. I made contact on XX/XX/XXXX with a woman by the first name only of " XXXX '' at Square. XXXX assured me that she " would escalate a report with Square 's Fraud Dept. and that I could expect a return call or email ASAP, however that it " could take up to 7 business days. '' I called the following day, XX/XX/XXXX, anyway to see if there had been any updates yet and to relay that the matter HAD to expedited as I had payroll coming out of my bank account that Thursday and that would put me in a huge deficit. Again, I was reassured that they were " diligently working on it and would contact me ASAP. '' In a subsequent call I placed later on that same day, I was informed by a very " helpful '' individual at Square who provided the following update, after first confirming that I had no XXXX XXXX XXXX accounts ( hmmm ... .why do you ask when your agency knows very well who I bank with? that never occurred to me ask, though ) : " It appears that someone has attempted to open 4 different bank accounts in your name, but not your Social, with XXXX XXXX. One, ending in the last 3 digits, the only numbers available for me to see, are XXXX. This account was successfully opened with WF and all of some of your transactions from your clients were rerouted to this bank account. 2 of these accounts ending in XXXX and XXXX respectively are in incomplete status of opening ; the 4th ending in XXXX was either terminated or declined, we can not see. '' Interesting. Again, I was assured that I would be contacted ASAP pending completion of the " investigation. '' I was sweetly " advised '' to put a fraud alert on my Social " just in case. '' Which I immediately did, however, my guess now is that was simply a ruse by Square to make it appear that they were being proactive and helpful. As a consequence, I had to borrow money from my beloved XXXX-year-old mother-in-law in order to pay my teachers that week their well-deserved money. No reported activity has been made using my Social ( which Square does have access to ). i immediately contacted the Fraud Dept.at XXXX XXXX. The " information '' provided by Square with those numbers and a search of my name revealed no accounts, but they initiated their own investigation. They confirmed for me this morning that upon full investigation there were NO accounts established under my name, my address, my Social or other " ID. '' While accounts can be initiated online, documentation of such would have been mandated in order to complete the opening of said " accounts. '' I next contacted the Fraud Dept. of my bank and I then went in person to my local branch and no fraudulent attempts had been made on the business account that they could determine. I could not close the account as I had payroll and other bills pending yet. As of today still no fraudulent activity has occurred with my bank account. Again, this " activity '' was limited ONLY to Square. I then filed a report with the XXXX XXXX County Sheriff 's Dept. in FL to begin establishing the necessary paper trail. 8 days go by and no return call or email from Square surprisingly, so I called them on the afternoon of Friday XX/XX/XXXX. The gentleman, whose name I did not get, stalled me for quite some time claiming that he was " communicating with their Fraud Team via email and that they were probably backed up as it was taking some time to get a response. '' He would periodically put me on hold and " check back in with to see if I was still patiently waiting. '' You bet I was! At last, he apologized and stated that someone would reach out to me before XXXX Central, my time, as they would be open until then on the East Coast. Surprisingly, no such return call or email. On Monday XX/XX/XXXX, I began trying to reach Square again, to no avail. To press any prompt on their system results in nothing but frustrating circles and dead ends. To " press 9 to speak to a CSR results only in the automated response of " I see an account associated with your phone number that is currently under review. We are diligently working on it and will get back to you as soon as the process is complete, '' then it " politely '' disconnects without ANY opportunity whatsoever to speak to a live individual. No matter how many times one might relentless call. Any attempts to respond to their prompts on their website of an alleged live CSR is nothing more than communicating with a computer bot that does not " recognize your inquiry, '' nor does it recognize profanity, evidently. : ) During the phone game, my husband then started his search and last night is when it hit us fully that we were not victims of an outside electronic hacker as Square had " determined. '' Rather, Square is the REAL CRIMINAL. We discovered that they are in serious financial trouble and that there are thousands upon thousands upon thousands of similar horror stories for other unsuspecting small businesses ( they only deal with small businesses, no large corporations -- wonder why? to avoid their large legal teams, hmmm?? ). Likewise, there are thousands and thousands of complaints on the XXXX. Folks are complaining the same types of theft via Square and others, some small amounts, some major. The end result is many of these businesses were forced to close their doors because of this as they were still, like us, reeling from the pandemic losses. In our case, we are also still suffering from the ramifications of Hurricane Sally and the destruction of the XXXX XXXX XXXX which has put a great many of our former customers out of work. No customers, no income for our teachers. We take no money ourselves from the XXXX as we live off of both mine and my husband 's XXXX checks. He is XXXX from XXXX and I have XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. Nice, huh? Today I am in process of filing every report under the sun to every possible agency that I can -- the FTC, the FL and the CA Attorneys General, The Consumer Finance Protection, the XXXX, you name it. If I have to hold a National Press Conference with all the big news agencies, by all that is Holy, I shall indeed. PLEASE HELP RESTORE THE VICTIM 'S MONEY AND HELP US ALL TO PREVENT LOSING THE BUSINESSES THAT WE HAVE GIVEN MORE THAN OUR FAIR SHARE OF OUR BLOOD, SWEAT, AND TEARS TO BUILD. May God bless and protect every single victim of Square. Thank you, XXXX XXXX

I had sufficient funds on my Cash App account ( more than {$420.00} ), and because of an urgent situation, I needed to withdraw cash from this account at an ATM in the amount of {$400.00} on Thursday, XX/XX/XXXX. So off the ATM I go. Upon arriving at the drive-up ATM around XXXX XXXX CST on the XX/XX/XXXX ( located at my personal and local XXXX XXXX branch ), I went through the normal process as one does initiate and execute a cash withdrawal from an ATM using my Cash App Visa card. During this transaction I had subsequently requested a receipt to be printed for my record keeping upon successful completion of this transaction and anticipated dispersement of those funds. All as fine and normal as it usually goes for this sort of transaction, and there was no activity to have occurred to indicate a problem, error, or issue with my transaction and ability to have it processed by this particular machine. So after submitting the request for cash in the amount of {$400.00}, agreeing to accept the additional fee of {$3.00} for using a non-bank atm for this service, then waiting for the money to dispense from the little doors while listening the machine as it processed this transaction the atm screen suddenly the cut to black, then restarted to the standard welcome message it greets one with when before they enter their card to initiate a transaction. No receipt popped out, nothing. Right before this occurred I was directed, however, to remove my card from the machine before it released the money, which I complied with. Anyway, this happens, and I'm expecting the doors to open regardless because my money should be ready and available now that the transaction successfully processed. But the doors that dispense the money didn't open, nor did a receipt pop out. However, I immediately received both a text message and email confirmation ( time stamped at XXXX XXXX CST ) from Cash App confirming that this transaction had indeed been successfully processed, in addition to the {$3.00} ATM fee. But that's the problem. I wasn't dispensed that cash. The transaction went through successfully, but that ATM never rebased the physical cash to me. Frantic, I parked my car and ran into the bank lobby ( as the atm was a drive-thru version ) to hunt down a staff member to help me figure out what went wrong and thereby fix the issue so I could get my cash that failed to appear. So I found an employee, who after explaining what had happened at the atm outside, went out to look at the machine and investigate. Several minutes later he returned, only to report back to me that from what he was able to conclude, this error was not a result of a malfunction or error with the ATM itelsef, but instead a processing error that transpired during the transaction, and because of that, and since the funds were not XXXX funds using a XXXX debit card to withdraw, my only course of action to recoup this money was to contact the issuer of the card and source of those funds : Cash App. I couldn't believe my ears. First, that this wasn't an ATM malfunction ( it was not ), but more so that XXXX literally could not and would not do anything more to assist because it literally had nothing to do with them or their services ( which I understand completely ). But how does this happen, and why?! And why now?! So as he recommended, while still in the bank lobby, I get my phone open the App, and proceed to locate Cash App 's contact information to immediately call so that action could proceed immediately to resolve and rectify this situation. As a result, there was nothing the bank could do, and I was directed to contact Cash App immediately about the whereabouts of this money. Frantic, I went to find the contact information for this company, and to my horror there isn't really any aside from the option to either text or email their support team. I was absolutely stupefied to learn of this, because how would one get any action taken on situations like the current one I'm in without talking to a live person? So with no other choice but those two options, I sent the Cash App a message via text and email to their Support detailing the incident outlined above. What I received only added to my level of horror and incredulousness - a canned response to both messages that they would look into it and I would hear back in about ten business days or so. No ticket number, no request for additional information - NOTHING. So here I am eight business days later ( XX/XX/XXXX ), still without that {$400.00} in cash I expected to received ( plus the additional {$3.00} ATM fee ) so that I could tend to the urgent situation that had arisen that day thereby requiring my need of those funds immediately in order to resolve. So I'm not just still out of that {$400.00}, but my situation went from urgent to emergency, and I'm in a very bad, very very bad financial predicament as a result because the only funds available to me failed to materialize for reasons I don't understand or know. And in these past eight days I have not received one email, one text message, one phone call, or one attempt by Cash App Support to provide me with details about what happened, why, and the actions they would be taking immediately in order to rectify. I have received no follow-up, and I have since reached out several times since the XX/XX/XXXX with inquiries about this problem, only to be further stonewalled and ignored. Aside from their canned, boilerplate and obviously vaguely worded emails that were received immediately after submitting a request for support on the XX/XX/XXXX by Cash App, I have not heard or been provided with any form of communication to indicate there is action on their end being taken in this matter. I have no ticket or incidence number from my o initial support request made via text and email on the XX/XX/XXXX, and I do not receive any type of acknowledgment to my subsequent inquiries made between then and today, XX/XX/XXXX. I have also not been contacted or asked by Cash App to provide additional details of the incident that can prove useful or helpful in their investigation of events here. LITERALLY NOTHING. NOT ONE WORD. NOTHING. This can not possibly be legal, right?! Unfortunately, I suppose it is. Now it has been over six business days, and despite multiple attempts via email, XXXX ( to their XXXX XXXX handle ) and text to get an update, and despite contacting XXXX XXXX XXXX as they are part of the Cash App credit card puzzle - and who filed a ticket requesting to follow up with an update to me with Cash App Support ( which was the only action they could take in their position and role as business partners with Cash App ), and despite returning to my XXXX bank and the scene of the incident a week later ( XX/XX/XXXX ) to appeal to the Branch Manager ( XXXX XXXX ) if there could be anything done on their end, who then himself attempted to find ways to get resolution for this, and timely resolution at that, THERE HAS BEEN NO UPDATE, NO REFUND OF FUNDS, NO CREDIT OF FUNDS, NO COMMUNICATION, NOTHING. ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. This is not Cash App 's normal complaint of basic human stupidity for getting scammed for goods and services then realizing you got screwed. This was the processing and transaction of several hundred dollars that failed to dispense as they should have. This was not do to insufficient funds, ATM malfunction, or anything else. It happened because of something glitching on Square/Cash App 's end, and to put it lightly, I have little faith any action has been taken at all on their end to look into and resolve this, because it's not that uncommon of an incident to occur, but it shouldn't take longer than a week to resolve between parties. And at the very least provide an update response. NOTHING. How is that not theft and fraud? Worse yet, when reading through all their disclosures to try to figure out who else to contact to get involved with resolving this expeditiously, every phone number listed in their legal and financial disclosures, with exception for the phone number for XXXX XXXX, were dead numbers. Square 's number? Dead. Cash App 's number? It tells you to go submit a support request online of via the app. The number listed on my bank statement for the transactions to transfer money into my account a few days before this incident? Dead. How this company was given the legal go-ahead is beyond me. And then I learn they're not FDIC insured. GREAT. Meanwhile, I'm literally XXXX up the creek, cashless, in an even worse financial position because of this, and who knows when they'll get around to resolving this, or at what rate. AND WHERE THE XXXX IS MY {$400.00}?!?!?! Unbelievable. I '' ll be filing complaints with every agency, both state and federal, detailing this incident and their incompetence in providing error resolution.

XX/XX/XXXX I received {$210.00} from a client and shortly after my cash app account was hacked. Cash was requested and sent to an unknown/unauthorized person. After receiving the money from my client a request of {$210.00} was requested from a name similar to the person that sent the cash. Cash app denied that request as suspicion fraud. Minutes later another request was made and was accepted and sent out from my cash app balance. Shortly after there was another request for {$1400.00} that was denied by cash app. There was a request to send me {$500.00} from an unknown person that was denied and lastly there was a request for {$1500.00} with the title rent that was accepted and came out of my bank account via cash app. I never pay my rent via cash app and my rent varies monthly due to utilities. After discovering the issues I had with cash app I put in a complaint via the app and contacted my bank. I then started investing deeper and noticed I had a text message and emails from cash app about my code being requested. I also noticed that my email account had been hacked and the thieves forwarded the email with a code to themselves. I Submitted request for refund via the app on XX/XX/XXXX.

I was on the XXXX Application one day as I searched through my online networks, and one peculiar individual appeared on my direct message feed. I actually initiated the conversation, hoping to receive funding from my financial state at the time. He encouraged me to provide sensitive information.

On XX/XX/XXXX, I transfered {$1000.00} which only {$980.00} cent was transfered to XXXX card ending in XXXX from my cashapp card ending XXXX because of a cashout fee from cashapp XXXX. I did this cause I had to pay toward a funeral for mom that died from XXXX, The individual I spoke with at the funeral home stated that they don't accept cashapp but they would accept my XXXX card. Then when I get to the funeral home to pay the told me that it was the other way around-They accept cashapp not XXXX. This really upset me. Cause they said the person I spoke with by phone was an intern that shouldve answered any questions. The funeral owner stated the intern should've given my call to someone who could've answered me correctly.Okay this has gotten me mad, I am already upset cause I lost my mom. Then I transferred the funds back from my XXXX card to my cashapp on XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX XXXX. Instead of {$980.00} was transfered only {$970.00} was transfered cause of XXXX instant tranfere fee of {$9.00} was deducted from the {$980.00}.. Okay here 's the mistake I made which was a big mistake, and I've been trying too get it fixes by sending numerous emails to cashapp and XXXX. XXXX sent me an email stated that since the funds was transfered and completed to cashapp they can't do anything for me. I even asked them to reverse the charges back to my XXXX account. They said cashapp has too be the one to help me. I forgot to update my XXXX account and link my new cashapp card to it with this card ending in XXXX which where the {$1000.00} was transfered from orginally to XXXX. Instead when I did the transfere back from my XXXX account to cashapp, I had it sent too my old cashapp account/card ending in XXXX. I have no access to this account which I've ask cashapp to close months ago cause someone hacked my accounts along with my bank accounts. I reached out too cashapp now for over a month trying too get them to either transfered the funds back to my XXXX account so I can transfere the funds back to my new account card ending in XXXX that the money orginally transfered from. But I am getting no where with cashapp. I've send proof after proof after proof. Each time its someone new asking for me to send proof etc. I've sent proof so many individuals at cashapp. Here are some of the cashapp referernces numbers that attached to their email. I am sorry I can't paste them all cause its so many but here some of them ( ref : XXXX, ref : XXXX ; XXXX : XXXX ; XXXX : XXXX ; I've sent them proof of my ID, with my cashapp card XXXX and XXXX card XXXX and my new cash card ending in XXXX where the funds was transfered from to XXXX. I even attached the email that XXXX sent me concerning this matter, But all I am getting is different generic emails from several agents that work from cashapp. One email the agent said I see the funds was transfered from account card ending in XXXX to XXXX. And the agent left at that. I didn't ask about if the transfered was successful. If anyone actually read customers emails and help them then they wouldn't have so many unsatisfied customers. This problem I have should've been an easy fix. But for over a month Cashapp or Square Market has been giving me the run around. I have no choice but to reach out to XXXX to see if I can get any resolutions to an easy problem. I explain to them I don't know my login information to the card ending in XXXX, cause I requested that to close months ago cause some hacked my accounts. I tried submitting my complaint but this system is mistaking the references numbers as credit card accounts. If transaction numbers needed I have them I really want them to be included in this complaint but the system want allowed it.

REQUESTED SUPERVISOR My son sent me money on ( XX/XX/XXXX ). When I logged into CASH App, I was prompted to confirm my debit card information, but I couldn't because my bank issued me another card and I wasn't given the option to change it. So I deleted the existing account and created a new one with my current debit card information. The NEW account has the exact same information, except a different Cashtag name. Instead of $ XXXX ( old ), the new one is $ XXXX. I was on phone with a male representative yesterday ( XX/XX/XXXX ) who walked me thru the process of identifying myself. I was instructed to uploaded my picture ID and provided SSN #, DOB and other requested Information under Bitcoin. Was told it would take 24 hours to resolve problem and merge both of my accounts and that a representative would call me between XXXX XXXX EST today ( XX/XX/XXXX ). Instead, I received an email at XXXX XXXX EST on XX/XX/XXXX stating a problem enabling Bitcoin withdrawals from my account. Contacted sender and they were unable to pull back the money because the transaction is marked COMPLETE. On XX/XX/19XX/XX/XXXX@ XXXX XXXX. Received this email from Cash App : We understand you're having problems accessing your old account. If you havent already, please go ahead and create a new account associated with your new phone number and/or email address and link your debit card to the new account. Once youve linked your debit card to the new account, please reply to this email with the following : - Your first and last name - $ Cashtags associated with your former and new accounts - The phone numbers & email addresses associated with your former account - The phone numbers & email addresses associated with your new account - Last 4 digits of the debit card linked to your old Cash App account **or** the full zip code for that card - Last 4 digits of the debit card linked to your new Cash account Once we have this information, we can request that your two accounts be merged into one. Please note that once we merge your accounts, we can not unmerge them. Please note, we always recommend keeping a phone number and email address linked to your account to ensure easy access. Thank you. Cash Support My response on XX/XX/19 @ XXXX XXXX I don't have a new number or email address. It's the same. What has changed is my bank card number. I can not link the two because I created a new account and deleted the old one yesterday because when I opened the app, it wanted to use my old bank card information and didn't give me the option to change it. So, I deleted the existing account and created a new one - not knowing - it would create chaos in the system and confuse the representatives handling it. In doing so, I'm not able to see the money that was sent. I will provide you with the information requested. If you can not resolve this issue today, you need to refund the sender their money. They have a record of funds transferred to me, but I don't have a record of receiving on my end. First and Last name : XXXX XXXX Old $ Cashtag : XXXX New $ Cashtag : XXXX Phone number & email addresses associated with your former account : XXXX and XXXX Phone numbers & email addresses associated with your new account are the same : XXXX and XXXX Last 4 digits of the debit card linked to your old Cash App account ( provided ) **or** the full zip code for that card ( provided ) Last 4 digits of the debit card linked to your new Cash account ( provided ) same zip code as old card.

The man instructed me to go to the BITCOIN section of my app and take a picture of my Drivers License & Face. According to him, this would solve the problem & within 24-hours, I would receive my funds. But I didnt, and he keep calling back for the same information each time. On the last call, I mentioned the contents of this email and senders name. He said he knows who you are and told me to disregard this email because he is handling my case and will tell you so. No further communicate has been attempted. I still have not received my funds. The sender even attempted to resolve the matter from on their end, but to no avail. The Cash App is a database. A record can not be deleted from a database. Its not difficult to cross-reference my information to find my old record and merge with the new one & credit my account.

XXXX A unauthorized transaction in the amount of {$640.00} from merchant XXXX XXXX my Cash App account. I immediately notified customer support on Cash App after going through the selection process in the support menu and was told Id receive a email response within 48 hours. 48 hours is a ridiculously unreasonable response time for a bank to begin with, and had I known this type of lackluster customer service is what I would be served I wouldnt have signed up to use cash app. XXXX I contacted XXXX on the XXXX through XXXX DM and through email as those were the only shown contact methods, and I receive the first response from them on the XXXX. I reported this transaction as not made by me and I hadnt placed a order to begin with, and their response was thank you for getting in touch ive looked into this for you and we thought we had stock when we didnt. When we tried to pack your order we realized our mistake and refunded you XXXX XXXX. Depending on your bank or card issuer the refund can take up to 10 business days. Well I was relieved to receive this email and thought I would be set, until I never received any refund or any further contact from XXXX. For the record the only responses I received from Cash App since my first 5 separate emails, were duplicate automated responses that their system generically sends out. So cashapp hadnt been any help to begin with, but I thought this merchant XXXX refunded me so I didnt mind the cash app lack of response at the time. XXXX I filed a complaint on XXXX website against Cash app due to their blatant ignoring me and not protecting my account as they stated they would in their legal disclosures. When a card claim is reported/filed Regulation states that the bank has up to 45 days to investigate but could take longer, but will provide provisional credit within 10 business days if its not resolved by then. This wasnt followed whatsoever by cashapp as they literally ignored my several support emails and messages on social media in regards to my dispute against the transaction. My XXXX complaint is what finally triggered a response from Cash App as I receive a email from a manager that stated he was reviewing the claim and it may take up to 10 business days. This is the first human contact I received from Cash App, which was on XX/XX/XXXX ... 6 days after my XXXX complaint. I provided my screenshot of the email I received from XXXX about them owing me a refund as proof for my case. I was told by cashapp that I will be contacted soon which from my experience is weeks ... Sometime between XXXX I checked my cashapp account and saw that my balance reflected the {$640.00} returned. The reason I dont have the exact date I was provided provisional credit from Cash app is because they never contacted me or notified me that they did, it just showed up in my balance. Also the credit doesnt show in my transactions anywhere so its literally like a ghost deposit. I shouldve taken a screenshot the day I saw the credit applied to my account but I didnt think of doing so because I was sure my money was safe and finally returned because theres absolutely no reason for my claim to be denied. XXXX I woke up to a notification from cash app and a email stating your cash app has a negative balance, please add cash now to settle it. After checking my cash app transactions/summary and scrolling through my email I had no idea how my account just randomly went to $ XXXX when I had over {$300.00} literally earlier the same day around 3am. The email cash app sent me notifying me about my negative balance didnt include a single word to explain how its negative and what happened, and per surprise my cash app transactions didnt reflect anything to explain it either. After sending multiple support requests on the app and through social media messaging I tried to think of how my money was just wiped out, which later in the day made me think of this claim that I thought was long resolved considering the sufficient evidence I provided and the type of claim it was. XXXX I finally receive a response from Cash app that explains why my account has a negative balance, and they stated the card network provided a final decision on your dispute claim. Based on the details provided by yourself and the merchant, it was rewarded to the merchant Thats the pathetic response I received from them. Now to summarize they took more than a month to open my claim and provide me a refund for the disputed amount, they took over a month to provide sufficient human response in regards to my disputes, but it only took them 2 weeks to complete this investigation and remove the credit they had applied to my account. If you look at this whole case it seems a bit funny which type of concerns are taken seriously and what matters Cash app determines to work quickly. When one of their long standing customers has a first ever issue and needs the bank to help them resolve it, they take this lightly and take their sweet time to simply provide acknowledgement, but when Cash app has to return stolen money to a customer, they do everything in their power to fabricate a explanation for how they can take it back. I wasnt provided any response since the XXXX to explain how in the world my dispute claim would be ruled not in my favor after all of the evidence I provided. I wasnt provided any type of warning or claim file information sent to me that summarizes this whole dispute, nothing at all to help a customer. I have rent coming up next week and I carefully manage my budget during this pandemic to make sure I dont end up homeless or without food as I live paycheck to paycheck. None of this matters to cash app and they apparently will not care if a customer has their money stolen from them and need it refunded, because this isnt how cash app is profitable. Cash app is clearly not a bank or a service that has the customers best interest in mind or that follows the XXXX laws set in place when offering banking services, they clearly are just in it for the profit. Im still shocked to how its possible for my dispute to be denied and my money stolen from me like this. Im also disgusted to how terrible the customer service is at Cash app and how they dont have any legible way to get in contact with a human worker when they are handling millions of peoples money.

First email was to cash app on XX/XX/XXXX after reviewing records that cash app was not charging deposit fees with my account and then in XX/XX/XXXX unbeknownst to me, without my consent or changes to my plan, began deducting fees every time the same person/business sent me cash to my same bank account. They kept a total of {$400.00} by deducting fees without warning a year after using the app in the same manner as I had since first setting up my account. Upon my first email to customer service, they notified me that I had a business plan and sent me a refund of only {$5.00} to switch it to a personal account ( I NEVER SPECIFIED an account and it's always been the same personal account ). Please see multiple prior sent emails to cash app support starting on XX/XX/XXXX and continuing to present day with the same response and no contact from the company or resolution to the matter. On XX/XX/XXXX I sent this email : " Thank you for the email but this does not clarify anything. Can somebody please call me I am very upset about the lack of transparency and money Im owed. Thank you again for responding to my concerns. Best '' See below for detailed history from prior email sent to Cash App on XXXX : " Dear Cash App Customer Service Staff and Supervisors, I have been communicating with support via email for some time without a full resolution to my issue. Please see reference info from last email from you : For reference, your case # is : XXXX Thank you, Cash App Support '' " I have been using the app since XX/XX/XXXX. I used it to be paid for contract work, from the same person/clinic since the start. I never signed up for a business account and was receiving my payments sent to direct deposit with Bank " X '' without any fees from XX/XX/XXXX through XX/XX/XXXX. Suddenly, as of XX/XX/XXXX the app began deducting fees from my deposits without notifying. me or without my approval for any changes as I would never switch plans or pursue immediate cash out if it came at a cost. I trusted Cash App to keep customers abreast of any changes to plans or policies. I went through reviewing all of my past Cash App deposits and clearly see you suddenly added fees to my account which subsequently cost me a significant amount of money, which was done/taken without my approval. '' The sender has always been from XXXX AT XXXX $ XXXX and/or XXXX. BOTH ARE THE SAME PERSON/BUSINESS. XXXX 's email XXXX @ XXXX See line items below : XX/XX/XXXX {$2000.00} payment with NO FEES= fully deposited amount of {$2000.00} XX/XX/XXXX {$2000.00} with fees of {$38.00}, only {$1900.00} deposited : SUDDEN CHANGE by CASH APP TO ADD FEES XX/XX/XXXX {$550.00} with {$10.00} fee XX/XX/XXXX {$840.00} with {$15.00} fee XX/XX/XXXX {$1000.00} with {$19.00} fee XX/XX/XXXX {$1900.00} with {$36.00} fee XX/XX/XXXX {$80.00} with {$1.00} fee XX/XX/XXXX {$310.00} with XXXX fee XX/XX/XXXX {$440.00} with {$8.00} fee XX/XX/XXXX {$1500.00} with {$28.00} fee XX/XX/XXXX {$1500.00} with {$28.00} fee XX/XX/XXXX {$20.00} with {$0.00} fee XX/XX/XXXX {$1500.00} with {$28.00} fee XX/XX/XXXX {$1500.00} with {$28.00} fee XX/XX/XXXX {$23.00} with {$0.00} fee XX/XX/XXXX {$30.00} with {$0.00} fee XX/XX/XXXX {$1500.00} with {$28.00} fee XX/XX/XXXX {$1500.00} with {$28.00} fee XX/XX/XXXX {$10.00} with {$0.00} fee XX/XX/XXXX {$1600.00} with {$30.00} fee XX/XX/XXXX {$1800.00} with {$34.00} fee XX/XX/XXXX {$1200.00} with {$22.00} fee XX/XX/XXXX {$140.00} with {$2.00} fee XX/XX/XXXX {$310.00} with {$5.00} fee ( refunded by cash app after 4 email complaints and attempts to directly speak with supervisors ) See images below with evidence that Cash App changed my account from no fee deposits to charging a fee after XX/XX/XXXX. I have been using Cash App well before this and NEVER signed up for an account that would charge me. You have charged me {$400.00} worth of fees for all Cash App deposits from XXXX. Prior to that there were NO FEES. Please refund me the full amount as owed and paid by the other Cash App member in order to rectify this upsetting situation. I was only granted a refund for " downgrade reimbursement '' ( which I NEVER agreed to or chose ANY changes to my account that would incur deposit fees! ) of {$5.00} on XX/XX/XXXX. This is unacceptable as I have been paid less {$400.00} for the past 6 years as a Cash App user. Given the above charges ( see below for photos with evidence of changes to fees with my same account ), I am owed {$390.00} to make up for lost wages. I appreciate a prompt response with reimbursement ASAP, particularly given the state of our economy during this pandemic and subsequent financial stress. Please have a supervisor contact me, ideally by phone as soon as possible to address this matter. I look forward to a very quick response given the large amount of money needed to be reimbursed to me. '' Email follow up on XX/XX/XXXX : From me to cash app customer support ( auto replies by different named people/robots every time with same response ) Here is my email : " Hello, I appreciate the response but this matter is not resolved and was not explained nor assessed in any prior emails in response to my multiple, detailed requests for reimbursement as no proper notification of charges or changes to my account was provided by cash app. If you can not help me with this case please connect me with a manager or supervisor I can speak to about this. I would like to avoid filing a formal complaint but I provided detailed information which shows that cash app changed my account and extracted fees without my consent or knowledge. Thank you for communicating with me about this matter. I hope that cash app is invested in treating its customers with respect. Thank you for immediately attending to this matter. I wish you wellness and health, and as an essential worker during these very stressful times, I especially hope businesses are mindful of their customer care and communication. Thank you '' Please assist me in accessing the refund owed to my by Cash App ( Square is parent company ) of {$390.00} Thank you. I have more details in the emails with photos of my deposits over the past 6 years on the app, as well as emails, names and bank info if helpful or necessary.

I AM NOT SURE WHY THIS CASE WAS CLOSED THE FIRST TIME AS I DID NOT GET A CHANCE TO RESPOND TO WHAT THEY RESPONDED WITH. I HAVE HARDCORE PROOF AND EVIDENCE THAT NOT ONLY DO CASH APP/SQUARE HAS THE MONEY IN THEIR POSSESSION BUT I STILL DON'T HAVE MY MONEY BACK FROM THEM. On exactly XX/XX/2020 at approximately XXXX XXXX central standard time, I went to make an instant cash out transaction from cash app for the amount of {$6100.00}. The bank and debit card linked to my bank account ( XXXX XXXX ) that I had linked to cash app at the time is where I chose to instant cash out my funds too which usually is in my bank account within seconds anytime I do an instant cash out from my cash app account. The fund were not deposited into my bank account because the bank declined the finds because it was over my limit that I can deposit into my account which is {$5000.00}. So going back and forth between cash app and my bank for what is now 3 weeks, my bank ( XXXX XXXX ) returned the funds to cash app on exactly XX/XX/2020 at approximately XXXX XXXX eastern standard time. This also shows on my XXXX account as well and they have a trace id where they sent the money back to cash app. I had been dealing with a supervisor by the name of XXXX at my bank ( XXXX XXXX ) and their back office. I have emailed cash app several times, too many too count, and they have not responded to one email I have sent in regards to them returning the money to my account. The few times they did respond, they copied and pasted a general email template as a response without ever checking their system for the funds or FULLY reading my email. A few names I got back email responses from cash app are XXXX, XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, none of which were helpful and very dismissive. They then took it upon themselves at one point to block me from emailing them. Also they took it upon themselves to close my case and stop responding to my emails and I still don't have my {$61000.00} back into my account. I am ALWAYS on time with my bills and rent and this situation has caused me to be delinquent on my bills and rent which has now caused me and my sister 's XXXX year old child, whom I look after and have custody of, to evicted. We are now XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. I have not been able to receive any assistance from cash app at all. I do have all email communications and exchanges between myself and cash app. They have not returned my money to me. Then they provided a phone number to a company by the name of XXXX ( XXXX ) only for them to tell us they can not assist me or the bank because the card that was linked to my cash app at the time ending in XXXX did not use XXXX XXXX. I explained this to cash app as well, once again no response, and then when someone did response it looks like they copied and pasted an email template and sent it to me as a response instructing me to do the same exact thing they had instructed me to do before which was call XXXX. They then requested for my bank to send over an official letterhead with trace information on it in which case my bank explained they did TWICE. Cash app, as we speak, has everything they need. They told me without that letterhead from the bank with the requested information on it they will not be able to return/reverse the funds. They have everything they need and none of them has not responded to any of emails nor have they returned my money back into my account. They currently have the funds in their possession as we speak. Also they have hired illegal workers who are pretending to be fake cash app support representatives helping customers solve issues with their cash app account. The fake number they have posted online and everyone is calling is XXXX. When the gentleman picked up they had me to download and app called XXXX XXXX and hook my phone up to the " cash app server '' and was able to see my phone screen remotely. The man I was speaking with supposedly his name that he provided was XXXX. He was extremely rude and unprofessional. So once he tapped into my phone remotely from the XXXX XXXX app he then instructed me to open the cash app app and we went through a few things and then he had me to pay {$200.00} out of XXXX XXXX XXXX account causing me to overdraft my account by {$190.00} of which my bank has explained once both transactions post they will start a fraud investigation and will, for the time being, issue what's call a temporary provisional credit to my account. My bank also cancelled my my debit card I currently have with them and sending a new one in the mail. At the time I saw and found out people were getting scammed from cash app and having thousands of dollars stolen I went into my cash app account ( after the {$6100.00} transaction ) a week later to unlink my debit card from my cash app card. I then linked my XXXX XXXX XXXX account at the time just in case cash app was going to return the funds I had planned to immediately cash them out to my XXXX XXXX account and close my cash app account completely which I plan to do once they return the {$6100.00} to me which doesn't belong to them. No one at cash has returned my money XXXX {$6100.00} XXXX or responded to my emails. At this point I am XXXX, XXXX out, scared and fustrated to say the least. PLEASE HELP!!! AND NO SQUARE DOES NOT " HAVE A MEMEBER OF THEIR TEAM INVESTIGATE YOUR ISSUE AND FOLLOW UP SHORTLY VIA EMAIL!!!! THAT IS A LIE ... THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO WAY TO CONTACT THESE PEOPLE AND IF YOU CALL THE NUMBER YOURSELF YOU WILL SEE THAT!!!!! I JUST WANT MY {$6100.00} BACK AND WHAT'S EVEN MORE WEIRD IS THE FACT THAT CASH APP ( SQUARE ) REFUNDED ME THE INSTANT CASH OUT FEE OF {$100.00} BUT CLAIM THEY SUPPOSEDLY CAN NOT GIVE ME MY {$6100.00} BACK!!!! I AM GOING TO GET MY LAWYER INVOLVED IF THEY DO NOT REFUND ME MY MONEY. I AM GIVING THEM A CHANCE TO FIX THIS ISSUE. I AM VERY MUCHED LAWYERED UP AND IF THEY DO NOT GIVE ME BACK MY MONEY I WILL FILE A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT!!!

On XX/XX/2020 ; I woke up to use Cash APP to pay my phone bill. When I looked at the status of my account it showed my account was closed. I sent an inquiry through the app where they respond by email and they sent me the following message : Cash Support Thu, XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX XXXX to me Hi XXXX, After a recent review of your transfer of funds, we detected the use of Cash App for activity in violation of Cash App 's Terms of Service. As a result, you will no longer be able to use Cash App to send or receive payments. We are also exercising our discretion under Sections 4 and 5 of the Cash App Terms of Service in the decision to block or reverse your transfer of funds. For security reasons, unfortunately we can not provide more details regarding our decision. Visit the Cash App Terms of Service for more information. Thank you, Cash Support In order to receive a response, please do not delete the following line : ref : XXXX : ref I went to look up what was ment by sections 4 and 5 of the terms : 4. Your Liability for Unauthorized Transactions Contact us as soon as possible if you think there has been unauthorized activity on your account. Depending on the circumstances, if an unauthorized transaction has occurred we may be able to cover you. Please let us know if you believe there is an Unauthorized Transaction on your Account. You could lose all the money in your Account. We will protect you from Unauthorized Transactions in your Account. When this protection applies, we will cover you for the full amount of the Unauthorized Transaction, so long as we were able to complete the Error Resolution procedures described above. An " Unauthorized Transaction '' occurs when money is sent from your Account that you did not authorize and that did not benefit you. For example, if someone steals your password, uses the password to access your Account, and sends a payment from your Account, an Unauthorized Transaction has occurred. However, the following are NOT considered Unauthorized Transactions : If you give someone access to your Account ( e.g. by giving them your login information ) and they use your Account without your knowledge or permission, unless you have notified us that transfers by that person are no longer authorized ; If you, or someone else with whom you are acting in concert, act with fraudulent intent ; or You reverse engineer or chargeback a transaction made with your Cash Card. 5. Our Liability We will cover your losses for certain incomplete or incorrect transactions, detailed here. If we do not complete a transaction to or from your Account on time or in the correct amount according to these Cash Terms, we will be liable for your losses or damages. However, there are some exceptions. We will not be liable, for instance : If, through no fault of ours, you have insufficient funds in your Account to complete the transaction ; If the ATM where you are making the Transaction or using your Cash Card does not have enough cash ; If the Cash App was not working properly and you knew about the breakdown when you started the transaction ; If circumstances beyond our control ( such as fire or flood ) prevent the transaction, despite reasonable precautions that we have taken. 6. Funding Sources Used for Payments Made Through the Service You may link an Eligible Bank Account to your Cash App to fund payments made through the Service. Square reserves the right to limit which banks or what types of accounts constitute an Eligible Bank Account. If you choose to link your Eligible Bank Account to your Cash App by providing the username and password you use to access your bank information online, you acknowledge your personal and financial information is being provided to XXXX XXXX, that your personal and financial information will be collected, processed, transferred, or stored in accordance with XXXX XXXX Privacy Policy, and that you acknowledge and agree to XXXX XXXX Privacy Policy. When you initiate a payment through the Cash App, if you have a Restricted Account, then you will not be able to initiate payments to other Cash App users ( including Sellers with Cash for Business accounts ) with your Cash App Balance. If you have a Restricted Account and you wish to make a payment to another Cash App customer, you may : ( 1 ) use an Eligible Bank Account or Eligible Credit Account ; or ( 2 ) upgrade to an Unrestricted Account to make the payment with your Cash App Balance. If you have an Unrestricted Account and have sufficient funds in your Cash App Balance to satisfy the full payment amount you can choose whether you want the payment fulfilled by your Cash App Balance, Eligible Bank Account or Eligible Credit Account. If you do not have sufficient funds in your Cash App Balance to cover the full transaction, then you may choose the funding source from your Eligible Transaction Accounts or Eligible Credit Accounts. I had recently contacted them for an unauthorized purchase where they had the customer cancel there current card and get a new one. But that was it. As far as number 5 they never paid any payments for me. This is what I assumed they meant. After this response I tried several times to reach them to have them clarify there accusation so that we can resolve this issue. They would only respond using the same response they had before ( above ). Please contact them to find out why they have closed not just my account but others. I found out on that same day they have done several other CASH APP users that way. I told them in my response that I never used any illegal transactions and I work for a living. They are yet to contact me to resolve this matter.

On XX/XX/20 I XXXX XXXX was concerned that my pay check had not post on my cash app.card.It has always posted before XXXXI send a message asking about my deposited. Cash app replied that we received your message and well be getting back with you. I replied back with a message how long. And there wasn't no reply back from y'all. So I XXXX for cash app phone # .The # that came up was ( XXXX ) XXXXCalled # talked with a man explaining about my paycheck has not post to my cash card.He asked me how much it was .I stated {$920.00}, He stated to me first he would need to verify who I was.He verify my phone number. He told me he sent me a message with a code.I got the code called it back to him.Shortly after he stated he sent me a link. That i didn't need to click on it to send the link back to the # he texts me.I try doing what he asked but I was doing it wrong.That this is a new phone that I don't know how to do what he is asking. So he proceeded walking me through. Meanwhile while doing the walk through i seen the amount posted $ XXXXBut in a blink of a eye it was gone .I asked him where did it go .He stated don't worry it is there we just have to finish the walk through. So we proceed doing that and I got to the section that had to put in a card # which I put in the cash app card # which didn't work. I kept? him about it he stated to me you don't have a bank account.I stated no.he said i well call you back in a hour and he hung up.i called back several times and had the same problem.They would hang up i would call back. And they got where they wasn't answer when I call.So called my daughter explaining what happened. She stated that I needed to come over to her place. So I did. When I arrived at daughter 's house, I and my daughter called the number back an started the process all over again. The guys name was XXXX he said an he had my daughter follow his instructions to get access back to my account. Had her download a app on her phone and my phone saying its just to see our screen to better assist us. We were still getting the messages from cash app like we would if we were transferring, etc. So we thought is was really cash app helping us. We managed to access my account, though we then realized the app he had us download not only just let him see our screens it also gave him access to everything but then it was to late. My daughter started questioning wheres our money at, wheres our money at!!! He said its in a safe place don't worry i transferred it to your bank account, check your account. So my daughter checked her bank account and nothing, when she exited out of her bank app back to cash app she was locked out and he hung up. The last thing my daughter seen was transfer {$930.00} to her account and her money {$1500.00} along with mine gone in less then a second. They didn't log me out of my account this time but did log my daughter out and now she can't access it or find it to recovery it. She's emailed all information requested about accessing old account and about the fraud on both of our accounts and nothing seems to be being done about it. No more emails back or anything. Her and I have requested to have a real live person call us back so we can figure out how yall are going to honor fraudulent activity on our accounts an refund our money back due to scammers getting access to accounts and posing as cash app reps. That Square Inc advertises honoring fraudulent issues with a full refund when not done delebertity/knowledgeable. Which clearly we didn't realize it wasn't cash app reps at the time since we were still receiving emails and texts from cash app except for when they unlinked my daughters card or when they stole our money. On XXXX XXXX Cash App Team credited my daughters account with a full refund of {$2400.00} at XXXX. Since her cash card was reported stolen, they closed card and issued her a new one though it was going to take up to 2 weeks to receive card in mail. So my daughter sent me the money in 2 transactions of {$930.00} and {$1500.00}. So I could use my account to send the money to her bank account for her. So she linked her bank card to my account. When I tried to cash out the funds to her bank using my account, it declined and my account was locked. it said to unlock account contact cash support and within 24 hrs I should gain access again. But that didn't happen! I've sent email after email and still haven't received a reply back except for email saying we've received your message, a cash support rep will contact you shortly. well that didn't happen either. I've also filled out and sent back a suspicious activity form that I received in order to unlock my account along with other emails showing proof that there was No wrong activity done. That I was just trying to cash out the funds for my daughter. Though since my account has been blocked, my daughter has requested a refund for both transactions to be sent back to her account since she has received her new cash card but I cant accept her request due to my account being locked. Its been over 10 days and my issue still has not been resolved. I am fixing to have to take other measures to have this issue resolved so I can have access to my and my daughters money. Due to not receiving any reply 's back from y'all, it seems like y'all are trying to scam us for our money. if there any other information or questions needed, reply back to XXXX or XXXX or even give me a call at XXXX. I XXXX XXXX also gives XXXX XXXX my daughter permission to handle this complaint along with any other issues due to I not being computer inclined. Her information is XXXX XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX. thank you XXXX XXXX

On XXXX XX/XX/2020, While holiday shopping, I found a listing via XXXX XXXX for the XXXX XXXX. The listing appeared to be from a small business named XXXX XXXX supposedly out of XXXX, TX. I contacted the seller to find out if the system was still available. I received reply that it was and was informed by the seller that they could accept payment via Cash App, XXXX or XXXX XXXX I made payment for {$700.00} via Cash App with agreement that the parcel would be shipped overnight via USPS. The seller informed me that they would send me tracking info as soon as the post office opened. After giving them a couple of hours, assuming as a small business they would have other orders, I checked Cash App to see if payment had been processed to find that XXXX XXXX was now XXXX XXXX. I sent a message to the XXXX XXXX rep that I was speaking with requesting the tracking number and received no reply. I immediately attempted to cancel payment. I was met with a message that I could not cancel payment but that the process was to request refund, which I did immediately. I then received a follow up message from the seller, stating that they saw I disputed the charge and claiming they had sent the parcel but had not had time to send me tracking info. I conveyed that at this point I was suspicious of a scam but still held hope that they would hold up their end of the deal. I conveyed that if their business was legitimate, that I would not be disputing the charges. After being called a XXXX slur, and some further complaints from the XXXX XXXX rep or person about their payment being held as it was in dispute, I was sent a picture of a USPS receipt with tracking info. I did not rescind my request for a refund, nor did I have any communication with Cash App during this time, as I was still suspicious of being scammed. After seeing that the initial tracking info on the package was at a post office in Rhode Island, I maintained my suspicion of a scam but rationalized that it may be a warehouse of some sort and figured I would find out if it was a scam or not for sure when the package arrived. The package, which was supposed to be going from Texas to NY, was shipped from Rhode Island to XXXX, TX where it was delivered. I contacted the seller several times since then and have received no correspondence. They will not return messages, they denied the refund request through Cash App. And yet again changed their name ; this time from XXXX XXXX to XXXX XXXX. I reported the account and the XXXX XXXX listing as a scam to XXXX but have received no communication from XXXX to date. I have attempted multiple times to address the issue through Cash App. They have responded via email, however the responses from Cash App seem to either be auto-generated or ignoring my messages altogether as they repeatedly suggest that I request refund, a step which I already completed and have informed them of multiple times Additionally, I contacted my bank on the date of sale attempting to cancel. I was told I had to wait for the payment to process and then I could go into a branch and dispute the charge. I followed their instruction and went in on Friday, XXXX. I was informed by my bank that they were told by MasterCard that Cash App is responsible for returning my payment and that I need to contact them again and resolve the issue through them Since I was told this by my bank I have sent and received multiple messages with Cash App customer support. While I have continued to ask Cash App for possible solutions and remedies, I am repeatedly being told to request a refund from the seller. I have offered to provide documentation and evidence to support my claim but am constantly met with resistance in the form of request refund from seller and Cash App can not refund. I acknowledge that I made a mistake here, clearly I should not have assumed that listings promoted by XXXX would be legitimate. Had these been more normal times, I certainly prefer to purchase items in store. However, In a time of a worldwide pandemic and with businesses shut down, it seems absolutely ridiculous that the companies hosting online transactions would have policies and/or practices in place that protect the scammer more than the victim It is apparent I was the victim of a scam, the seller has since changed their name and will not respond to my messages. Cash App continues to send me instructions to request a refund even though I already have and they have not so much as offered another possible solution. My bank on behalf of MasterCard, tells me that I have to resolve the matter with Cash App. If we can not go into stores and we can not trust online companies and the companies that process payments make the victims of scams jump through hoops while the scammers make off with money they are not deserving of without a hint repercussions, what hope do we have? Update : Cash App again responded to CFPB complaint stating to resolve the issue with the seller. As explained above I have attempted this route multiple times and notified them of this as well. I also left a negative review on App Store for cash app and Square Inc. ( Cash App parent co. ) responded told me to contact customer support I continue to be taken in circles. This is ridiculous. I will take legal action against the company if necessary, I am trying to resolve this issue.

YOU ARE BREAKING THE LAW AND I AM GOING TO SEEK ARBITRATION TO RESOLVE THIS CLAIM. this is not a duplicate complaint. they did not resolve the complaint in a way that was favorable to me the consumer. I have in fact been treated unfairly and discriminated against by cash app block or square whatever they go as. im writing this complaint in regards to a response I received from block/square cashapp. I was a victim of phishing and identity theft, I have been getting these emails from cash app requiring me to do something to my account but when I opened the email they hacked my account. I informed cash app of this and I also read their guidelines for unauthorized transactions. They wrote me back accusing me the consumer of giving my information to someone which I did not. They are directly blaming me, discriminating against me and damaging my character/reputation. No results from this investigation was forwarded to me but they said they refuse to refund me my money because I gave my information out. This is a XXXX lie. why is this company lying on me? they took the time to lie and assassinate my character by calling me a liar. why would I go through the trouble of filing a complaint if I voluntarily gave someone my information. they are not even following the rules set up on this app I will inform my familyy friends and colleagues about the outrageous response I received when trying to address a fraudulent transaction. I will also post this on many blogs to inform and warn other of the abusive practices cash app has and encourage them to no long do business with them. They have discriminated against me, ignored my disputes and refused to return me any of my money. at first they lied and said the money didn't come from my cash app account. now in their. response they said it did and that I sent it? can they prove this? I am asking for someone to thoroughly investigate this matter. I intend on taking this matter to Arbitration so we can settle this claim if we can not reach a settlement that I agree with. here are the rules on their website Tell us AT ONCE if you believe your XXXX XXXX ( including your card numbers ) has been lost or stolen, or if an electronic fund transfer has been made by logging in to your Account without your permission ( an Unauthorized Transaction ). You may contact us through the Support tab of Cash App as described in the Error and Dispute Resolution section above, by calling XXXX, or by writing to us at XXXX XXXX XXXX, Attn : Cash Disputes, XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, CA XXXX. If you tell us within 2 business days ( Monday through Friday, holidays not included ) after you learn of an Unauthorized Transaction, you can lose no more than {$50.00}. If you do NOT tell us within 2 business days after you learn of an Unauthorized Transaction, and we can prove we could have stopped someone from making an Unauthorized Transaction if you had told us, you could lose as much as {$500.00}. If your statement shows transfers that you did not make, including those made by card, code or other means, you must also tell us at once. If you do not tell us within 60 days of the date we sent you the first statement on which the Unauthorized Transaction appeared, you may not get back any money you lost after the 60 days if we can prove that we could have stopped someone from taking the money if you had told us in time. If a good reason ( such as a long trip or a hospital stay ) kept you from telling us, we will extend the time periods. If you have a XXXX for XXXX Account, you may be liable for all Unauthorized Transactions, regardless of when you report the activity to us. The following are NOT considered Unauthorized Transactions : If you give someone access to your Account ( e.g. by giving them your login information ) and they use your Account without your knowledge or permission, unless you have notified us that transfers by that person are no longer authorized ; If you, or someone else with whom you are acting in concert, act with fraudulent intent ; or You reverse engineer or chargeback a transaction made with your XXXX XXXX. A misdirected payment, such as a payment that is sent to the wrong person, is an authorized payment, and will not be considered an Unauthorized Transaction. nothing listed under the " not considered unauthorized transactions '' happened in my situation. this was done without my knowledge or permission. this transaction was fraudulent they are allowing scammers to profit big off of their platform due to their lack of security and accountability. I DID everything required for me to do as a consumer and they still laughed in my face. this situation has been very stressful. its awful that's these companies are involved with scammers and allow them to use their platform to profit and take advantage of others while they sit back and do nothing. they are telling me to contact the scammer but I have no information for that person. I do not know who scammed my account. Im sure the have the legal name for this person im asking them to turn this information over along with the results of their investigation that proves me as the consumer was liable for this transaction and did in fact give my information to someone. please have this notarized and sworn under the penalty of perjury in an affidavit of truth.

On the morning of Wednesday XX/XX/XXXX using my XXXXXXXX XXXX smartphone, I attempted to buy {$1.00} worth of bitcoin using cashapp 's bitcoin investing feature using the radio button XXXX the app 's page has discreet predetermined buttons in the amounts of {$1.00}, {$10.00}, {$20.00}, {$50.00}, {$100.00}, or " ... '' which would allow the user to go to a different screen and enter another specific amount. With the default setting of " standard one-time order, '' I selected " {$1.00} '' and then the " next '' button which took me to the " confirm your cash pin '' screen which I confirmed with my fingerprint rather than a numeric PIN which then automatically executes the sale ( Quick note : I did notice that today XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX that I can not use my fingerprint as a PIN the way I did that day. ). I received an email from cash app at XXXX " confirming '' my purchase of {$15.00} worth of bitcoin instead of the {$1.00} that I entered. I've never bought more that {$5.00} at a time which I did once, and had previously purchased {$1.00} increments on 4 other occasions so I know how to use the service. Cash app requires that you have a balance in your Cash app to purchase bitcoin, but it withdrew additional money from my linked bank account to cover the amount that it selected for me over the amount I wanted to buy XXXX it authorized a withdrawal of an additional {$4.00} from my bank account without my consent to cover the difference between the balance I had in cash app and the {$15.00} total ). I immediately went back to the app to look for a phone number or support contact and was unsuccessful, so I used the in app support center to send my initial complaint about the malfunctioning of the app. I then got stuck in a terrible feedback loop of canned customer support responses that misunderstood my problem, failed to acknowledge my problem, and refused to address my problem, which I'll summarize below, and am happy to forward via email if it's helpful. I sent a total of 5 messages from XXXX XXXX XXXX and also a complaint via a survey link. On XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX I got a message saying that cash app is " unable to reverse a bitcoin transaction once it has been initiated '' and going on to explain more detail why nothing can be done, completely overlooking my actual concern of an error in the app, which I addressed in my response at XXXX that day. On XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX, I got a response from XXXX who incorrectly stated that I wanted to recover my funds from cash app and said that he would provide clarity. He again said that Cash App can't reverse a transaction, and sent me instructions for selling bitcoin. That same day at XXXX I again attempted to clarify that I was not trying to recover my cash, but instead was trying to alert cash app of an issue I had with a malfunction in the app. I specifically requested confirmation that my issue was escalated and shared with the tech support/dev folks at Cash App/Square. I described what happened in great detail for the XXXX team, and let them know what device I was using when I had the incident. That same day at XXXX XXXX responds and tells me that she'll share my feedback with the Cash team to help improve my experience. At XXXX I respond that I would like to know what will happen with my info and that I'm concerned that the issue still has not been addressed. On XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX, XXXX answers with the same canned answer as XXXX XXXX thanks for taking the time to send over your feedback. I'll be sharing this with our cash team to help improve your experience with Cash App. '' I replied at XXXX to let them know my concerns in greater detail and shared my intention to report my experience to the CFPB. I didn't get response until XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX acknowledging my frustration and giving me instructions for sending bitcoin to third parties, which I have never done and was not trying to do, and then sending nice messages to about the health of my loved ones. I responded on XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX stating that the response did not address any of he specific questions I asked and asking if real humans answer customer concerns. On XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX I heard from XXXX who said that she could confirm that they already " investigated into the issue I experienced with the APP and we can confirm that there is no global issue impacting the APP. '' She then thanks me for taking the time to send my feedback and says she'll be sharing it with the Cash team to help improve my experience with Cash App. She then gives me specific instructions to keep this from happening again which were new including updating my phone and app, turning off my phone and turning it back on, force closing the app, deleting and reinstalling the app, and then she says that if I have the issue again after doing that, I should send a screenshot or video of the issue, what I did right before it happened, and the make and model of my advice ( in short, all of the info, I'd already sent in earlier messages to be shared with the XXXX team ). To me this was an acknowledgement that there was actually an issue with the app, and that other people have complained about it too, ( also not sure why I didn't get this message on XX/XX/XXXX ) but I can't be sure, so I'm submitting a complaint just in case.

A transfer of {$15000.00} from my Cash App account to my new XXXX account was never successfully completed. This money has been inaccessible to me for over a year. On XX/XX/XXXX, I elected to fund my new account with XXXX by charging my Cash App account. I provided XXXX with my Cash App account and routing numbers. On XX/XX/XXXX, I received an email from XXXX saying, in part : " Your {$15000.00} transfer could not be deposited into CitibankIf the amount was transferred from an account held by another financial institution, please contact them and request that the transfer be returned. This action will re-deposit funds back into your account. '' I've attached this email. I contacted Cash Support and asked that the transfer be returned, but they ultimately refused. On XX/XX/XXXX, I received an email from Cash Support saying, in part : " After reviewing your account, I can see that your direct deposits were rejected and can confirm the funds will be returned to the originator of this deposit within 3-5 business days of the posting date. In order to help locate the funds, I have attached a PDF to this email showing the rejected direct deposits and the return trace IDs. With that said, your Cash Card and direct deposit account have been deactivated. '' I've attached that PDF. This was the first I had heard of my account being deactivated. My understanding is that, at this point, XXXX had rejected the transfer and sent it back. However, my Cash App account had been deactivated. So Cash App would not allow me to access the returned transfer. Cash Support 's claim that the funds would be " returned to the originator of the deposit within 3-5 business days '' proved false, as I never received anything in my XXXX account XXXX On XX/XX/XXXX, I filed a complaint against XXXX with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. XXXX responded by claiming, " XXXX does not have the funds as they are being held by the third-party vendor XXXX ; therefore, we recommend that you contact XXXX XXXX for further assistance in recalling these funds. '' I've attached XXXX 's complete response. On XX/XX/XXXX, I emailed Cash Support and shared XXXX 's response. On XX/XX/XXXX, I received a reply stating : " For this, since you have confirmed with XXXX that the funds are being held at XXXX, you would need to work with XXXX directly. Cash App partners with XXXX XXXX for direct deposits and Cash Cards, but I can confirm that your funds successfully left Cash App and XXXX. '' I called XXXX, and spoke with a sales representative who was adamant that XXXX does not deal with consumers directly. She said that my bank needs to open a case with XXXX to resolve this. Therefore, I contacted XXXX again. On XX/XX/XXXX, the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX sent me a secure message saying : " Upon a review of our records, we have not received the funds. In our last response letter, we referred you back to XXXX XXXX, the originating bank who sent the funds. Since the merchant has claimed non-receipt of funds, XXXX XXXX will need to submit a request to recall the XXXX transfer and have the funds returned. '' Although I am aware that XXXX XXXX customer service does not handle issues related to Cash App accounts, I decided to try calling them anyway since I was getting nowhere with anyone else. However, they refused to talk with me about my Cash App issue. On XX/XX/XXXX, I filed a complaint against Square , Inc. with the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. I've attached the response. Square quotes back to me what I orally said to Cash Support on XX/XX/XXXX, " The {$15000.00} from XXXX, that was a refund. It was originally a direct debit from my Cash App account, but it, like, messed up, and it was supposed to get sent back. I disagree with Square 's characterization of my complaint. At that point, as an ordinary individual without a banking background, I was trying to investigate what happened. That statement reflects a lay person 's understanding on banking and ACH transfers. I am still trying to figure out what happened. I do not accept that Cash App successfully completed the XXXX transfer to XXXX. This was not a simple transfer from XXXX Cash App user to another Cash App user. XXXX, as a bank, did not accept the XXXX transfer and therefore my understanding is that Cash App did not complete the transfer. When XXXX notified Cash App that it did not accept the transfer, Cash App refused to resolve what happened to my money. Cash App had closed my account, and refused to accept any responsibility for Cash App 's unsuccessful transfer of my {$15000.00} to XXXX. Again, I do not accept that Cash App is absolved from its role in the loss of my {$15000.00}. Throughout this case, I have communicated with every company involved. Each company has sent me to another. But no one has yet taken responsibility and helped return my money. Block Inc is primarily responsible for this, for several reasons : 1. Cash App disabled my account, without notifying me, at a critical moment. If my account had not been disabled, I would still have access to my money. 2. XXXX made two attempts to return the money to its origin. 3. Cash Support refused to make any attempt to return the funds.

1. On Tuesday XX/XX/XXXX, I noticed my Cashapp balance went from apx. {$20.00} to apx. negative {$190.00}, with no explanation or new transaction showing in the transaction history. 2. The only way to inquire about it was to send a message through the App, which I did on XX/XX/XXXX. 3. On XX/XX/XXXX, I receive the following response by email : # # # # Hi XXXX, My name is XXXX with Cash App Support, thank you for reaching out. I hope you're doing well and you've been staying safe during this time. I understand that you're concerned about the negative balance of your account. Just know that I'm here to take a look at this and provide clarity to you. After looking at your account, I can see that the {$210.00} transaction to XXXX was disputed on XX/XX/XXXX at XXXXXXXX XXXX CT. However, this dispute was reversed on XX/XX/XXXX at XXXXXXXX XXXX CT and this has caused a negative balance to reflect in your Cash App. While you are still able to receive funds to your Cash App, any payments sent to you will go towards rectifying the negative balance. You can bring your account back to a positive balance by receiving payments from other Cash App customers, or by adding funds from a linked debit card. To add cash using your debit card : 1. Tap the Banking tab on your Cash App home screen 2. Press Add Cash 3. Select an amount and tap Add Feel free to reach back if anything else comes up, I will be aware of your response. Remind Cash App is the strongbox that protects your most precious treasures. Best Regards, XXXX XXXX Cash App Support ref : XXXX : ref # # # # 4. I do not recall initiating a dispute, nor do I have any records of a dispute, or of being contacted by Cashapp regarding the dispute. So, I responded to the email on XX/XX/XXXXas follows : # # # # 1. Can you pls provide me with all documentation regarding this dispute? 2. I don't recall making this dispute, nor have I received communications regarding this dispute. # # # # 5. I received no reply within 24 hours, so I sent a second follow-up email on XX/XX/XXXX requesting a response to my XX/XX/XXXX email. 6. Today, six days later, I received the following response : # # # # Hello, Thank you for reaching out. Please note we initiated a dispute claim with the card network on your behalf due to the merchant forcing your Cash Balance negative. The card network provided the decision on your dispute claim. Based on the details provided by the merchant, the claim was awarded to the merchant. Previously, your Cash balance was paid a provisional credit until the claim was resolved. On XX/XX/XXXX, the provisional amount automatically reversed from your Cash balance. Date Status Amount Balance After Statement Description XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX CST Dispute Reversed {$210.00} - {$190.00} Reversal : XXXX XXXX As a result, your Cash balance is currently ( - {$44.00} ). We ask you to immediately deposit funds to resolve the balance due as outlined in the Cash Terms of Service. If you have further questions or would like to further pursue your claim, we encourage you to reach out to the merchant directly. Again, we appreciate your patience and cooperation throughout the dispute process. # # # # 7. I responded as follows on today : # # # # 1. When did I initiate the dispute? 2. How did I initiate the dispute? 3. Upon what basis did I initiate the dispute? 4. Also, I have requested all related documentation, which you all have failed to provide or respond. Pls provide. # # # # 8. They responded as follows on today : # # # # Hi XXXX, I do not have any new information to provide regarding this issue. Please review the information in our previous emails to understand how to move forward. For questions or concerns outside of this case, please reply back to me here. ref : XXXX : ref # # # # 9. I responded as follows on today : # # # # Who, if anybody, at Cashapp, can tell me when I initiated the dispute? Who, if anybody, at Cashapp, can tell me how the dispute was initiated? Who, if anybody, at Cashapp, can tell me upon what basis the dispute was initiated? # # # # 10. They have not responded to date. 11. It is unacceptable that Cash App takes my money pursuant to an alleged dispute without providing any information or documentation regarding the dispute. They feel they have the right to take people 's money for no reason, or for reasons that they can make up and do not have to justify. 12. Cash App should be able to, and upon request should, answer basic questions regarding any alleged dispute. 13. Additionally, Cash App never contacted me regarding the alleged dispute to give me a chance to even respond to the merchant. 14. Cash App has literally provided ZERO documentation regarding this dispute that they are using to justify the theft of over XXXX XXXX dollars from my account. 15. Cash App claims to be a safe place for people to keep their money, but it is not. 16. Cash App has no accountability to customers, and should not be allowed to continue to do business in the United States without appropriate requirements and regulations.

Hello, I am here with a second complaint for the company Square. I made the first complaint on XX/XX/2021 to CFPB which I have quoted below. The CashApp Square bank keeps awarding the merchant the claim when I have shown proof that she did not render services and lied and manipulated paperwork. I feel as though because she is one of their customers on the business side and they dont want to lose her business they are siding with her. This makes no sense. I have sent screenshots of clearly where she has said different things from her website and email/text messages and has changed the address without my knowledge. They keep allowing her to review the case and that is not fair because Im not the one scamming here, the merchant is. Why would I want someone who stole money from me, lied on me, lied to me, and manipulated paperwork to cover her own mistakes? Im thinking either they have shady business along with her or they are not carefully reading my evidence that I am sending in. Something needs to be done about this matter! I even have screenshots included where she manipulated her website to make it fit and look like she is in the right. I have the screenshot from when I booked where it says she would come to my location and also where after she lied and took my money she attempted to change it but left the part on there where she says she comes to you. I really need this investigated. But as stated earlier I have attached my original complaint I sent to you all. Complaint number XXXX On XX/XX/XXXX I contacted a company called XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX before booking to ensure I had correct information. I stated to her I seen a special online on XXXX for a XXXX XXXX for me and a few of my friends. She advised me to go ahead and book which I did that same day. She contacted me letting me know that with XXXX I would not receive all the services so I canceled with XXXX to book directly through her site. I waited a few days until XXXX refunded my order to place the order through her direct website. Once I received my refund from XXXX, I proceeded to her website and booked the event for {$420.00}. I read the description and it stated verbatim You can choose services and if you need our location with party coordinator which she has went in on the website and tried to change but I have the screenshot of before and after she changed it without my knowledge. While I was on her website attempting to book the service I seen where she asked for customers location, so before proceeding I called again to ask if she would be traveling to us because what other reason would you need my address? She replied yes and I said great I will go ahead and book I just wanted to clarify. We hung the phone up and I proceeded to book. I received an email with all information including what, when, duration, price, and where. In which all of this information is the information I provided her with when booking on her website. I have the screen shots of that as well. She also changed that information without my knowledge because in the screenshot she sent me it states that you can edit booking and it is not the same address I gave when giving her my booking info. The address I gave her to come to which is also included in the booking email is XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX but she changed it to another address without my knowledge which I now figured out is XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, GA XXXX. It is not good business to change info on a service booked without the customers knowledge then blame the customer for your mistake and lie about it. I contacted Cashapp with info about disputing the charge and sent them everything over proving I was being taken advantage of because she clearly changed her information after the fact she found out she was wrong. They offered me a provisional credit but eventually awarded to the business which I feel is not fair because there was information changed on her website and booking site without my knowledge after I received the information she gave me from the beginning. To me first impression is everything. I would have never decorated or cooked food for the event had I been aware it was going to be held at another location. This is two businesses taking advantage of a customer with valid evidence You can not tell a consumer one thing then go behind their backs and change it. If you would look at the email screenshots you will see the dates as to where she changed it from one location to another. Also, another screenshot is where she sent me a screenshot of her address where it clearly says edit booking and that is what she did prior to sending to me. Because my original email from the day I book XX/XX/XXXX has the booking address I gave her. There is a two part screenshot for the booking email I received before it was changed without my knowledge, I couldnt fit it all in one so there are two images.

On XXXX XX/XX/2020, While holiday shopping, I found a listing via XXXX XXXX for the XXXX XXXX. The listing appeared to be from a small business named XXXX XXXX supposedly out of XXXX, XXXX. I contacted the seller to find out if the system was still available. I received reply that it was and was informed by the seller that they could accept payment via Cash App, XXXX or XXXX XXXX I made payment for {$700.00} via Cash App with agreement that the parcel would be shipped overnight via USPS. The seller informed me that they would send me tracking info as soon as the post office opened. After giving them a couple of hours, assuming as a small business they would have other orders, I checked Cash App to see if payment had been processed to find that XXXX XXXX was now XXXX XXXX. I sent a message to the XXXX XXXX rep that I was speaking with requesting the tracking number and received no reply. I immediately attempted to cancel payment. I was met with a message that I could not cancel payment but that the process was to request refund, which I did immediately. I then received a follow up message from the seller, stating that they saw I disputed the charge and claiming they had sent the parcel but had not had time to send me tracking info. I conveyed that at this point I was suspicious of a scam but still held hope that they would hold up their end of the deal. I conveyed that if their business was legitimate, that I would not be disputing the charges. After being called a XXXX slur, and some further complaints from the XXXX XXXX rep or person about their payment being held as it was in dispute, I was sent a picture of a USPS receipt with tracking info. I did not rescind my request for a refund, nor did I have any communication with Cash App during this time, as I was still suspicious of being scammed. After seeing that the initial tracking info on the package was at a post office in XXXX XXXX, I maintained my suspicion of a scam but rationalized that it may be a warehouse of some sort and figured I would find out if it was a scam or not for sure when the package arrived. The package, which was supposed to be going from XXXX to XXXX, was shipped from XXXX XXXX to XXXX, XXXX where it was delivered. I contacted the seller several times since then and have received no correspondence. They will not return messages, they denied the refund request through Cash App. And yet again changed their name ; this time from XXXX XXXX to XXXX XXXX. I reported the account and the XXXX XXXX listing as a scam to XXXX but have received no communication from XXXX to date. I have attempted multiple times to address the issue through Cash App. They have responded via email, however the responses from Cash App seem to either be auto-generated or ignoring my messages altogether as they repeatedly suggest that I request refund, a step which I already completed and have informed them of multiple times Additionally, I contacted my bank on the date of sale attempting to cancel. I was told I had to wait for the payment to process and then I could go into a branch and dispute the charge. I followed their instruction and went in on Friday, XXXX. I was informed by my bank that they were told by MasterCard that Cash App is responsible for returning my payment and that I need to contact them again and resolve the issue through them Since I was told this by my bank I have sent and received multiple messages with Cash App customer support. While I have continued to ask Cash App for possible solutions and remedies, I am repeatedly being told to request a refund from the seller. I have offered to provide documentation and evidence to support my claim but am constantly met with resistance in the form of request refund from seller and Cash App can not refund. I acknowledge that I made a mistake here, clearly I should not have assumed that listings promoted by XXXX would be legitimate. Had these been more normal times, I certainly prefer to purchase items in store. However, In a time of a worldwide pandemic and with businesses shut down, it seems absolutely ridiculous that the companies hosting online transactions would have policies and/or practices in place that protect the scammer more than the victim It is apparent I was the victim of a scam, the seller has since changed their name and will not respond to my messages. Cash App continues to send me instructions to request a refund even though I already have and they have not so much as offered another possible solution. My bank on behalf of MasterCard, tells me that I have to resolve the matter with Cash App. If we can not go into stores and we can not trust online companies and the companies that process payments make the victims of scams jump through hoops while the scammers make off with money they are not deserving of without a hint repercussions, what hope do we have?

Att : Consumer Financial Protection Bureau XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. Washington, D.C. XXXX COMPLAINT AGAINST : SQUARE, INC. / CREDIT CARD PROCESSING COMPANY CONSUMER MERCHANT SERVICES XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, CA XXXX I write you today as I believe that willingly or not, Square Inc. is aiding and possibly abetting criminals who commit credit card fraud on their credit card processing platform. In XX/XX/2020 I received a e mail web site inquiry for the sale of pro audio products to a company based out of California. The contact information was XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. XXXX, CA XXXX Tel:XXXX ) XXXX XXXX I went through the quotation process with client ( XXXX XXXX ) and he sent me a purchase order for products that were needed for his business. When I received the purchase order I processed the purchase with Square inc merchant services using their terminal application. XXXX had provided all relevant credit card information with the purchase order. In order to get transaction approval from Square using terminal data entry on my PC you must enter the credit card holders name, card number, expiration date, code on back of card and mailing address zip code. After that was done I did get approval for the transaction. XXXX sent me two more purchase orders over the month of XXXX for additional equipment for his business. After the 3 purchase order I received a call from the secretary of one of the actual credit card holders claiming they did not authorize the purchase. I in turn asked her to e mail me and I called Sqare inc customer service to authenticate her position. That was XXXX XXXX about XXXXor XXXX XXXX. I failed to get the ladys name at Square. however they tell you they record all phone calls as a mater of record. I asked the lady if the card was in the name of XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX she looked at her terminal and told me the name was incorrect and the card actually belonged to XXXX XXXX XXXX. At that point I asked if the name field in the authorization process for the transaction was part of the authorization process confirming a legitimate transaction. She said that a name must be entered into the terminal form but it is not checked for accuracy or validity to process the transaction. This lack of correlating a valid name with all other credit card information at the time of transaction approval threw the terminal approval process is why there is credit card fraud on the Square inc merchant services platform. As merchants who consume merchant credit card services from a third party to authenticate valid credit card transactions it is crucial that they use all data provided to authenticate charges. To not confirm the name on the card is aiding and abetting credit card fraud by criminals. I would also note that Square inc has had 2,999 complaints in last 3 years 1,506 complaints in last 12 months. They are not accredited by the XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX XXXX. There is always a persons name or company name associated with all credit cards or debit cards. There could not be a valid card with out a owner of the card, individual or business. As a merchant I rely on my credit card processing company to authenticate the data I provide for a transaction so I do not incur credit card fraud from criminals. For Square inc not to confirm the card holders name on transactions at the time of a terminal transaction is irresponsible and could be considered criminal since they are helping criminals process credit card fraud on their processing platform. The Merchant services provided by Square inc is my last line of defense against credit card fraud and they have failed to protect me from criminals that commit credit card fraud. If Square inc would have checked the names on the 3 transactions I had with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX they would of denied the transactions as XXXX had put his company name in place of the real credit card holders name. The total approved on all 3 transactions is XXXX. Also note that Square will not reimburse their 4 % processing fee on bad transactions. They are profiting from bad transactions and making merchants pay for their lack of proper authentication of transactions. I have substantial e mail, purchase orders, invoices, packing list and relevant data for each transaction that was fraudulent. I have attached all 3 PDF files for the transactions that were frodulant. I live each day in fear of Square inc attempting to blame me for what they did wrong. The name on the card is relevant and should be part of the authorization process, especially when it is provided threw terminal transaction process. If they would of checked the names on my 3 transactions they could of stopped credit card fraud in this case.

On Saturday, XX/XX/2020 I received a call from a number in Florida which I answered. The recorded message indicated that it was Cash App Fraud Department but the line then disconnected. I called the number back and a representative named XXXX answered. He explained that my account may have been compromised and that he needed to do a few checks to be sure my account was okay. He somehow already knew my Cash App cashtag so nothing seemed off to me. He told me in order to do the check I needed to download an app called XXXX XXXX which would allow him to share my screen and be sure my account was okay. I did this and my account opened on my phone. He then looked through settings and kept putting me on hold then he came back and asked me to transfer {$250.00} from my linked XXXX XXXX account to my Cash App. I tried and it would not work. He had me try several times until he said we would need to do it another way to make it work. He said I had to use the " Pay Friends '' feature on my Chime account to do the transfer to a dummy account and the money would then immediately be put into my Cash App Account. I did the transfer which he gave me the information for the so called Dummy Account which came up as XXXX. As soon as the transfer of {$250.00} was done the line disconnected. I checked my Cash App and the money was not there. I started to panic immediately but the Hawaii number XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX called me right back and it was the same person. He told me to relax because at this point I was screaming at him to put my money back. Then before I knew what was happening a transfer of {$140.00} was showing up in my XXXX Account then another transfer for {$500.00} another for {$1000.00} and another for {$100.00}. As this was happening with all transfers going to XXXX I was screaming at him to put my money back. He transferred me to XXXX XXXX who said he was the Fraud Department Manager for Cash App and that he was trying to fix the mistake and put the {$1900.00} back in my account and that he would add additional funds for my trouble. I told him NO I just want my money back NOW! He claimed he tried to put the money back but was not able to. He then demanded that I give him my other bank ( XXXX XXXX ) account information - which I refused to do. He then said I was defaulting on my money because I was refusing to give him the XXXX XXXX information. He then hung up on me. He called back several hours later after I kept calling the Hawaii number and offered to again put the money in the XXXX XXXX account. I believe that he somehow got into that account and saw that my kids college money account ( money for XXXX kids to go to college ) had a significant amount of money in it and wanted that account information but did not realize that the account is not in my name and I have no access to it. He then hung up on me again and I tried calling until the number was then disconnected. I filed a fraud and stolen money dispute with my bank XXXX who has denied me getting any of my money back saying that no error had occurred. Which I don't understand because I did not authorize any transfers to this XXXX ( I do not even know that name ) and it was clear at this point it was a scam. I have also contacted Cash App but have yet to hear back from them although I don't think there is anything they can do as the money was never put in my Cash App account. This was all the money I had to pay my bills and feed my kids and these people just took it away. I don't understand how XXXX can deny that a scam/fraud has occurred and refuse to give me my funds back. This seemed completely legit and I did not authorize them taking my money! Several hours later I received a deposit in my Cash App from a XXXX XXXX for {$480.00} ( for Dummy ) it said then about a minute later there was a transaction to XXXX XXXX XXXX for {$470.00} to which he replied with a heart. Neither of these was authorized by me as I don't know either of these people and don't know how they sent money and paid it out without my phone app? It was at this point I reset my phone because it was clear that they still had control of my phone. I think the only thing that stopped them was that I use Face ID instead of passwords. I don't know who to go to or how to stop these people. They have clearly done this to more than just me. There was no indication that they were not who they said they were until it was too late. At this point it seems I will not get my money back from my bank ( XXXX ) which just baffles me because I have all the information and documents proving this was a scam.

On XX/XX/2020 I transferred {$500.00} from My XXXX XXXX Checking account into my CashApp money transfer account because I needed access to cash while waiting on a replacement debit card to be sent to me from my bank. After making the transfer, I realized that I could not remember my access PIN number for my CashApp Card which I had just transferred the funds to. So I followed the instructions on the Back of my CashApp Card which was to go to cash.app/help in order to reset and receive a new access pin to retrieve money from the ATM. Upon going to cash.app/help I was instructed to call a phone number which brought me to a live person. This person assured me that he would help me reset my Pin but first needed to verify my identity and account. After getting my information this person asked me to download an app that would make the process easier going forward. He then asked me what kind of device I was calling from. Then he preceded to conduct a series of test transactions which led to him fraudulently transferring {$1800.00} out of my checking account. He attempted to transfer over {$4000.00} before I began to receive alerts from my bank for unusual transactions. I immediately contacted my bank and cancelled all of the transactions because they were unauthorized and fraudulent but was told by my bank that the transactions could not be cancelled until they posted to my account which totally makes no sense. I waited the few days then disputed all of the transactions that went through and was given a provisional credit by my bank pending investigation. Upon my Banks completion of their investigation they concluded that the transactions were authorized because CashApp Support sent them documents showing that the transactions were made from my phone and email which was connected to my CashApp account. The scammer had access to my account and knew what type phone I was using and my phone numbers of course because he asked me for them in order to verify who I was. So my Bank agreed with CashApp and charged me for the {$1800.00} which means I lost {$1800.00} twice! I then attempted to contact CashApp in order to get my money refunded but preceded with trepidation do to the method my money was stolen. I found out that CashApp only has an online dispute process which made me even more leery. But I lodged my dispute with them anyway and after a few days I received an email stating that my request for refund was denied because CashApp found through their investigation that the transactions were done through the same device which had done prior transactions. Not Prior fraudulent or unauthorized transactions just prior transactions. This makes absolutely no sense because of course I have done prior transactions. I have used CashApp to send and receive money on numerous occasions the prior year! CashApp advised me to dispute the transactions with my bank to recover my money after my bank had already overturned my provisional credit based on the information CashApp sent them. Of course I used my same device for prior transactions. I feel like the Bank and CashApp has failed to implement a change in their policies and practices which is resulting in the theft of thousands if not millions of hard working consumers money such as myself. I was told by my Bank Representative that they get this same thing happening daily to people with CashApp but yet no one has implemented a change to halt this atrocity! My money is supposed to be insured by the FDIC and I am not supposed to be held responsible for unauthorized transactions but yet neither one are protecting me now. Im even more upset that large financial institutions such as CashApp and XXXX XXXX are allowed to continue their banking practices while blatantly knowOmg that scammers are duplicating their website but they are not monitoring XXXX or the Internet to put a stop to this. If CashApp is and has been aware that their website is being commandeered by scammers on a daily basis why arent their IT department not securing their website?! And if the Banking Industry is aware of this scam as I was told by my Bank Representative, why are they not putting secure measures and policies in place to protect the banking consumers! I believe that this is a multi XXXX dollar money laundering scam being run by CashApp and the Banking industry and it needs to be exposed and stopped permanently! I want my money refunded from CashApp or my bank which is supposed to protect me from unauthorized transactions and is FDIC insured any!

I use the cash app card for daily purchases and had my unemployment deposited to my cash app account. I received two deposits and everything was fine. I was at the gas station trying to purchase gas and my card declined. I thought I inputed the wrong pin number. And then it declined at the XXXX and I'm staying at a hotel and was paying with my cash card and at first had no problems. I knew there was money in my account and the hotel informs me that my card declined. I was so embarrassed and paid cash. I then checked the cash app and sent a inquiry to the cash app support team. There is no way to contact them and the phone number they have listed is a digital recording informing you to email the support team through the app and they will get back to you within a day. As I mentioned I submitted a inquiry and then received a reply informing me that they couldn't enable my cash card at the moment however,. I can still send payments to other cash app users and vice versa. I replied and asked why my cash card was disabled? I received a reply from cash support team stating that there was possible fraudulent activity because there was 2 deposits from Unemployment and the name and the name I use for my cash app account didn't match. And they have put a hold on my account balance and I'm unable to use or withdraw my money at this time. It kinda caught me by surprise because the name on the Unemployment deposit is my full name and the name I use for my cash app account is just my first and last name only. I have a long name and I could understand if the name on the deposit was XXXX XXXX that doesn't match with my name at all. However, you would think that common sense would tell you that first and last names match and it's the same person. They requested that I submit documentation to verify the unemployment deposit and also my identity. I obliged and submitted a photo of me holding my driver 's license front and back and picture with it next to a official letter I received from Social Security that has my first and last name only to show proof that it's the same person. I also submitted a copy of my determination letter from unemployement. I shouldn't have to since the issue is the names supposedly didn't match. I shouldn't have to provide documents validating the deposits are mine. The problem started because my name didn't match supposedly. As long as I verify my identity and prove that both names are the same person. I still submitted my determination letter because the support team mentions that if I fail to provide the necessary documents it will affect their decision and how long it will take. That was about ten days ago when I submitted the documents to verify my identity and unemployement deposit. I have not heard from them since then and I have emailed them almost everyday inquiring about my account and when will they re-enable my cash card and release my money. I have not heard from them and I've emailed them everyday. They have a number to call but it's just a digital recording informing you to submit a email through the app in order to get ahold of someone from the support team. They said that I could not withdraw or use my cash app balance until they make a decison. I tried sending money to a friend and it said insufficient funds even though it clearly shows I have money in the account. Here is the funny thing I'm able to purchase stocks within the app but I can't use my money to pay for bills and buy food for my family. It's the end of the month and beginning of a new one and I have things to pay for. This whole situation has added unnecessary stress and has inconvenienced my daily life and now is affecting my ability to care and provide for my family. I didn't state my name in this statement because you said not to include it. However, once you see my full name and the name I use daily you will understand and see why I'm so upset with cash apps support teams response time and their guidelines. They didn't even inform me of what they did I had to send in a inquiry to find out. And not having a phone number to contact support needs to be changed in fact it should be mandatory that every business that does business with consumers have one and that your able to speak to live representative. I can't believe that it's taking them this long to look at my submitted documents and credentials to validate my identity and realize that there is no fraudulent activity going on ... I'm including screen shots of emails ... Thank you!

I attempted to make a very important, large purchase using my Cash Card, and I accidentally used the wrong expiration date, so the payment was declined. I tried again and verified my information before submitting the payment. Declined. Merchant reached out to me to inform me the failure code was showing that it was declined due to credit limit. At this point I contacted Cash App, and of course they could only be reached via chat. I attempt to call their customer support line, and I got the standard, We are experiencing higher than normal call volumes. I returned to chat, and the so-called advocates told me it was declined due to incorrect expiration date or cvv even though I informed them that I attempted the transaction more than once. They claim they could not help me because they only could see one transaction and suggested I try again no matter how many times I told them that I did. I asked if it was being declined due to my credit limit because thats what the failure code is showing from the Merchant, and they said no I have a {$7000.00} limit. I asked if it was due to my card being flagged or restricted for fraud because of multiple high-dollar charge attempts, which they said no and claim that it not an issue on their end because there appears to be nothing wrong with my card or account. Their only suggestion was try another card. Throughout this entire experience, I repeatedly asked to speak to a manager or a direct phone number to someone who can help find more answers because the conversation via chat was getting nowhere. They informed me I could try calling or chat with a manager, which I requested and attempted to call the phone number once more. However, I had to request a call back and got nowhere with the manager via chat. I kept getting told theres nothing wrong with my account or card despite the failure codes for the merchant POS showing otherwise, which I provided to them multiple times in black and white. After trying a few more times, I sent a screenshot showing the failure code again specifically saying declined by bank and instructing me to contact the bank associated with the card. I kept getting the same responses. The advocates claimed they were unable to see any transactions other than the very first one that failed due to the wrong expiration/cvv. They continued to just blame it on the merchant POS and offered no solutions. This all went on for a duration of 5 hours with no results. I informed Cash App this is unacceptable, and I am not going to play the blame game. Also, not a single person through chat offered a solution or suggested to put a ticket in to address a potential glitch or system error. They just repeatedly blamed the merchant POS. After asking them to cancel my Cash Card because it clearly was rendered useless, I was told that I would have to do that myself and was instructed to report it lost or stolen, which I was not going to do because my card was not lost or stolen. I am also not doing Cash App any favors for their financial reporting and accepting blame for a useless card. After ending the chat, I received a call back from another representative who I told I have very little patience already dealing with Cash App, so I dont want her to waste my time- no due respect to her personally. She encouraged me to tell her whats going on, so I gave her a chance. This woman was the only redeeming quality about my experience because she listened, was empathic and did not treat me like an XXXX or XXXX. She tried to get answers by contacting the department on the back end, which got nowhere because they claim they are only able to work with the transactions they see. She did say it could be a delay in their system causing the other transactions not to come through, but her hands were tied basically. She was the only one to remotely even accept partial responsibility. To sum it all up, I attempted the same exact transaction with a different card, and the transaction went through. Obviously it was not an issue with the merchants POS. Like any other large company, Cash Apps customer service is useless and terrible. I tried to use the Cash App card merely out of convenience because it was somewhat of an emergency, and I did not have the time to wait for the payment to be posted, nor did I want to pay a large fee to have access to the funds instantly when I have a Cash Card - which by the way is the whole selling point of their card. What good is a card you cant use?

I was scammed on XX/XX/20 as I responded to an XXXX bill that was originally sent to me via my email. I responded immediately on XX/XX/20 by calling XXXX customer care to dispute this bill that stated that I purchased a game, I did not purchase it. I began speaking with the XXXX customer care service representative and asked for confirmation that it was XXXX, they confirmed yes. I continued to dispute the bill, with a man who claimed he was going to help me rectify the problem. He asked me to check my IP address to see if it was private or public, He walked me thru how to do this, I confirmed it was public, then we spoke about the game purchase and he claimed he saw the purchase and asked me if I have plugged my cell phone in any public area, or if I have used any money transfer apps. To be clear he never asked me for any passwords, or anything private. He seemed professional and knowledgeable. At first I said no but it came to me that I had printed pictures through XXXX, and I have received and sent cash app transactions in the past. This representative whom I thought was a legitimate XXXX representative said that me using Cash App was the problem, he reported I was hacked through my cash app as well as my savings account through my bank has also been compromised. He instructed me to transfer money from my savings to checking to avoid further fraud payments through Cash App. He said he can help me save my identity from being completely compromised. As we continued to speak over a three hour time span he instructed me this can take a long time and to be patient due to Corona virus stores weren't open and that he had to connect to the sever etc, basically asking me to be patient etc. At this time he then instructed me to authorize XXXX XXXX when it pops up so that my transfer would go through as he reassured me that the money that was hacked through Cash App was going to be reversed one by one and that I have to be patient because it takes time. He instructed me to shut off my computer and to not take incoming calls or texts as they would interrupt the server and the process while trying to supposedly reverse the charges that were supposedly already taken from my account. Ultimately by the middle of the conversation we lost touch through bad connection he called back, we spoke again for a while he reported that he needed me to download a app called XXXX XXXX so he could remotely help me reverse multiple charges from XXXX, Massachusetts, California, Florida etc. I did as instructed, we lost connection again, I called him back he continued to ask me to respond to cash app sent payments by reporting to him what color the screen was once I would push send. Often the refunds from cash app would come through so I definitely thought I was reversing the payments. when I questioned this he responded by saying the screen turning a certain color is demonstrating that the charges are being reversed and my account is replenishing itself. Unfortunately this went on for three hours all along instead draining my account not replenishing. I was completely unaware. After my husband came home the man on the line pretending to be an XXXX representative seemed anxious and requested me to purchase a gift card from XXXX to use for future purchases to avoid future scams he said it would cost {$500.00}, at that point I started feeling uncomfortable and suspicious of him as did my husband, he then instructed me immediately to reset my phone so that future hackers can't get my IP address and that I don't lose my identity, he said my social media etc will be hacked. I declined purchasing a gift card but reset my phone per his request, but was nervous about that as I didn't know what I was really doing he supposedly helped me through it and then when I completed it he abruptly hung up, right after my husband and I didn't feel comfortable and tried to call cash APP but could not get through or even find a resolution center until finally now I found this opportunity. Unfortunately this is exactly a week later, after finding out my account was depleted of thousands of dollars and in the negative for {$1500.00}. Through False Pretenses I followed instructions to rectify a serious problem of identity fraud and now I am in desperate need of your help to investigate and resolve this matter as soon as possible. When I first reached out to cash app there was no solution, please help me.

On XX/XX/2021 I walked into a safeway store in XXXX CA. I used a " *Cash App '' card to purchase a pack of mentos ( {$1.00} XXXX and got cash back ( {$60.00} XXXX at XXXX. My account was fine until around XXXX I noticed it was over drawn. Which in cash apps policy is not supposed to occur. Well at XXXX the same day an additional charger was placed for an additional $ XXXX hour after the legitimate purchase. I was only able to send an email to cash app but I immediately notified them of my problem. They later responded saying their was a glitch in their system and I could use the atm again. Which is a problem I never mentioned nor had, and they did not mention my real issue at all. I had to call and call people to find someone who could loan me enough money to cover cash apps over draft fee because of this as well as a bit extra so i could get gas to get home. I contacted the merchant immediately, they did an initial check and said they do not see the extra charge on their side at all, but they were going to file a dispute anyways to make sure. The next day they called me from this number XXXX ( this is their financial department ). They assured me that there was only XXXX charge made on their end and also told me that the charge had cleared the account completely. So It was not pending by XX/XX/XXXX. Cash app on the other hand finally answered the phone on XX/XX/XXXX. I was told that the merchant charged me twice. Because the merchant was already paid twice they had to file a dispute so I could not have my money back yet. The next day is when I received confirmation from the merchant that they only charged me once so I contacted Cash App again and they told me something different that the merchant had not received the money yet it hadnt cleared and that I needed to wait so they could make sure the payment could be XXXX next day XXXX contacted them again. They told me the merchant had already been paid it had cleared their account so then they were in possession of the extra {$61.00}. Knowing this to be untrue I requested to speak to a manager abd was told that I could not. I was told that the person on the phone I was speaking with could not assist me any further I just had to wait for an email response from someone letting me know wether or not they were going to return my money. So up to this point what has occured is that Cash App has taken money out of my account due to a glitch or illegal business practices ... they lied to me about it being due to a merchant and continue to refuse to refund my money. The account I used was not even supposed to be able to be over drawn. I was sent emails that related to issues I did not even have because they were responding with AI most likely. I was told they were having a computer glitch, as well.as being told several different conflicting stories about what actually happened. I tried to request more information, I tried as well.to speak to a manager and was denied on all fronts. They continued to tell me they already told me I have to wait ten days ... maybe 45???? This is completely unacceptable. It is one thing if it is regarding a transaction but this posted to my account an hour later and the merchant assures me they can provide documentation showing they only charged me once also. If they decided they want to charge every customer double charges then go leverage that money or something claim it was the merchant and automatically get 45 days to return the money that wouldnt be legal. I dont think it should be legal even if it just happens to one person either. Their terms of service state they do not hold money for refunds and as soon as the merchant refunds the money Cash App makes it available to their customers. Well this money never left XXXX XXXX hands. The Merchant was already paid free and clear for this transaction by XX/XX/XXXX. This is a breach of contract and their 10 day rule does not apply. Money never went anywhere. I can provide proof of this from the merchant but can not even reach someone at cash app who can even look at this information. They have given me attitude as if I am.being unreasonable when they literally stole money from my account ( If I " accidentally '' take your tv is it any less stealing because it was an accident?? ) and will not speak to me or return it to me and they are well aware of the financial hardship they have caused because of this.

On XX/XX/XXXX my friend loaned me {$200.00} dollars using cash app. We have sent each other money before and not had any problems in the past. On XX/XX/XXXX the same friend sent me a request for a {$100.00} payment using cash app On XX/XX/XXXX I sent {$100.00} back, I sent this payment to the same cash tag that I had recieved the {$200.00} from and also that had sent me the request for XXXX. I have screenshots of the receipts and confirmations for each of these transactions. About a week went by and I spoke to my friend again and he told me he still hadn't gotten the payment I sent, I showed him a screenshot of the confirmation that I sent it and told him to contact cash app support which he did. A few days later he recieved an email from cash app support saying that there is no record of ANY transactions between his cash tag and mine, I have a screenshot of this email also. He emailed them back and said that he actually had sent me payments in the past and that he thought there was a mistake, but cash app support told him that they could not tell him anything else. So I emailed cash app support and I explained the issue and also sent my screenshots confirming the transactions in question. I recieved and email back a few days later stating that my paying was successfully sent to a cometely different cash app username that was not the one my friend was using, and it was also not the one it showed on the confirmation email I got for my payment or on the receipt in cash app. I pointed this out to cash app support and I receipt an email from a different custuper service person from cash app that said basically exactly what the last on said and completely ignored my questions. So I explained myself again and showed them the screenshots I have showing that I sent my payment to my friend NOT to the person that they are saying it was sent to. Then I get an email from a 3rd support person saying that unfortunately they can't reverse the transaction and that I need to make sure I send it to the right person next time. So I tried to explain my issue again to them and then get an email from another support person at cash app this one says that they can confirm my payment was sent to my friend ( at the correct cash tag that I had intended it to go to ) but they can't give me any more info becuase of privacy laws and he can contact them for help. They did not explain at all who or why this other cash app user was that they were repeatedly telling me that the payment went to in their first 2 or 3 emails. I have screenshots of all of these emails also. So I pass all this info on to my friend and he contacts them like we were told he should and then yesterday XX/XX/XXXX he gets an email back saying that the reason he didn't get the payment is becuase sometimes they cancel payments for security reasons and so the payment never went through and will be refunded back to my account within 1-3 business days. They also told him that becuase of privacy laws they can't tell him anything else and that I will need to contact them.. Never mind that I have an email confirming the payment was successful at the time I sent it and a screenshot of the receipt showing it was completed successfully and at least 2 emails from cash app support saying that they can confirm it was completed and that the recipient recieved the money, and that it has been over 2 weeks at this point so if the payment was cancelled than the 1-3 business days is alreafy passed at least a week ago and I have not recieved a refund like they said I would in the email to my friend. So on XX/XX/XXXX I email cash app support, like they had said I needed to int he last email to my friend, to ask about the email my friend recieved and try to figure out what is going on On XX/XX/XXXX I get an email back saying that they understand it's frustrating but they can't tell me details about where the money went since I am not the recipient and that due to privacy laws the recipient needs to contact them at this point. Which is the 3rd email in a row that they have used that reason to avoid having to actually answer anything that me or my friend is asking them, or help us solve out issue. I have screenshots of all this communication that they sent me and what they sent to my friend as well.

In XXXX I received my bonus and decided I would purchase some art from an online retailer/broker. It was collector character style art at a discounted price. At first, I sent the company {$400.00} and it was refunded as they said it would be easier to track each purchase if I made separate payments for each piece. Throughout XXXX the they contacted me multiple times about new pieces and I made around 20 purchases totaling close to {$1800.00} to the same merchant. They told me they would have them all delivered by XX/XX/19. I called to check on them in XXXX and 15 calls and many emails later XX/XX/19 arrived. By this time, I already knew I had been scammed but I read in the Visa rules that I had 120 days to dispute credit transactions and also, I had to wait until the agreed upon date had passed. Once it had I contacted the card issuer, Square Cash App support team, to start the dispute process. After 3 emails telling me I could not dispute payments to another account holder and after repeating it was a purchase made with my Cash App prepaid debit card as it is called by Cash App themselves, I finally get a rep, XXXX XXXX, that understands and has me fill out this dispute questionnaire and email him back each transaction. This was day 95 I believe ( I have every email saved that I am submitting ). After a week since sending XXXX XXXX my list of transactions and not hearing back from him, I email him again. My email was inquiring about the status or at least a confirmation that they had received my email. A few days later I was blown away when another Cash App support rep had emailed me to say that my transactions are over 60 days old and they can not be disputed with the card network. I quickly replied back and explained that I purchased these online ( no pin ) from a msp/processor that clearly states they process all debit cards as credit. Therefore, my transactions using my Cash App Prepaid Visa Card awarded me the right to dispute per Visa rules. Another week goes by and still no reply. This is the common theme as they have the worst copy and paste customer service I have ever experienced. I finally received an email stating that the mailbox I was replying to was not monitored ( not joking ). So, I went through the app with the same email message verbatim and received an email that stated if you have any questions please reply to this email ( same exact email address XXXX ). I continued to email them back explaining in more detail my point but received the same copy and paste denial every time. I finally turned to Visa and asked them, If your Visa prepaid debit card is processed as credit, can you dispute charges up to 120 days with the network if merchandise was not received. As I waited, I researched the processor and I read the Cash App TOS where they have a link to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureaus website. The processor, who I spoke with, states that they process all debit cards as credit unless they give you the option to charge it as debit as a funding source ( this would be a prompt ). Cash App support at this point kept telling me no further comment or help would be provided. I ended up asking them 3 or 4 emails in a row for the Customer service management, Square legal team and executive management team/s email. No replies. Finally, Visa wrote me back on day 120 and told me this, " Visa Dispute Rules are the same regardless of the type of Visa Card ( Credit or Debit ) used for the Visa Transaction, that includes the timeframes for initiating a Dispute. The Issuer of your Visa Card will have to assist you with any Dispute Resolution according to the Visa Core Rules and Visa Product and Service Rules. If the Issuer of your Visa Card needs assistance, they need to contact their assigned Visa Representative. I immediately emailed the Cash support team and they, now after the 120 day time frame Visa allows, email me back the same response We can not dispute your charges and we have no other information to provide. I believe cash app support failed to dispute my transactions due to a lack of knowledge or policy that directly misleads consumers. I trusted the Visa logo when I used that card. I believe many others have suffered as well,

I opened this CashApp in early XX/XX/2020. I had changed cell phone devices XXXX XXXX.

There was no one really reading my email request. I attempted to follow the advise and ended up somehow creating another account. When I call the only number cash app has listed. I receive a txt msg. with something similar to the email. and so on. I'm going in circles and I think it just keeps creating new accounts. All my information on the accounts is the same the only difference is that I have my XXXX and XXXX with the same pre-fixes. I have to add that I have had both those email addresses for the last 20 years. I have provided that information to cash app and still can't resolve. I just want all the moneys that have been paid to me by other users be transferred to my bank card or mailed by check. I do not want to do any business with this company. I believe the balance to be in the {$200.00} range. I know it's not much but times are tuff with everything going on and when I couldn't access or use my funds was something I could not work with. I have many many more similar replies from cashapp but I can not just get my account cashed out and closed. Please if there is anything possible that could be done. Respectfully

I have been using applications on my phone to send money to my wife and had {$1300.00} taken from me. I am a XXXX XXXX veteran who has a XXXX XXXX military account and my wife has a local small credit union she uses as her bank. I get direct deposit to my account for my XXXX so I haven't gotten around to opening a new account yet, just for that reason. With that being said, I used apps like XXXX, XXXX, and CashApp since I couldn't transfer money straight to her account to send her money for bills. I have a XXXX XXXX XXXX so I send her a chunk of money so she can handle our main finances. I always used XXXX and had been for months with no problems. I always send her around the same amount $ XXXX and add a funny memo since it's always been the same thing, for her to pay our bills. On XX/XX/XXXX, I went to transfer {$1300.00} using XXXX, it said it failed twice. So then we tried CashApp, that one said it also failed and gave an identifier code for the failed transaction of # XXXX. Then finally we tried XXXX and it seemed to work. The money came straight to my account. Then we realized my husband 's account was minus {$2600.00}, meaning somewhere along the line he was charged twice. I contacted XXXX and they said it was my bank, XXXX XXXX. So I contacted XXXX XXXX and they opened up an investigation ( Claim # XXXX ). I received a letter from them XX/XX/XXXX that said they were investigating but they would be giving us a temporary credit of the {$1300.00}. We thought, awesome, they can see the money transfer company messed up and we were getting our money back, especially since we knew we weren't doing anything wrong we thought it was being handled and that was the end. On XX/XX/XXXX, we received another letter from XXXX XXXX saying they were still researching which seemed a bit weird. Then we get a call from XXXX XXXX saying they went to take the {$1300.00} back but there wasn't enough so they need to talk to us. We of course are confused why they can just take {$1300.00} like that and XXXX XXXX said that there is some sort of grey area between them and the cash transfer apps like XXXX and they actually didn't have the rights to return our money in the first place. They said they had investigated our claim the max number of times and it was up to us to dispute it with the companies on our own. So, on XX/XX/XXXX, I went into the XXXX XXXX branch and got physical print outs of the transactions. There's something weird because the bank says they can see where the balance goes down an extra {$1300.00} but there isn't an actual entry to show where it went to. The transaction was only physically on my bank statement for maybe one day and then disappeared. I had no idea this was going to be such an ordeal or I obviously would've screenshotted the extra {$1300.00} that seemed to be taken from XXXX. We have made numerous calls to XXXX and they say as long as we can prove they took it, then we can get it back, but that's nearly impossible since the entry isn't on the bank statement. So they, just like XXXX XXXX, have said too bad. We then decided to try an investigation with CashApp since we were getting nowhere with the other companies. CashApp doesn't even have a support phone number, they just have an email address. I sent a complaint email to them XX/XX/XXXX including the identifier code and never got a response. The reason I'm submitting this complaint this far after is because we thought it was solved in XX/XX/XXXX until the money was taken back XX/XX/XXXX and I was giving CashApp some time to respond to me after me contacting them XX/XX/XXXX. I am beyond frustrated because I'm out {$1300.00} and I have three different companies refusing to communicate with each other, and most shockingly XXXX XXXX didn't protect me as a consumer and never offered a solution or reason for why everything played out the way it did. I'm not even positive which app took the money and their lack of communication doesn't help. I'm hoping you can track where the {$1300.00} went and why we've been told to go in circles with no real help or resolution.

Several years ago I signed up for a Cash App account, and subsequently used it to transfer US currency to others as well as purchase Bitcoin through their trade service. I purchased roughly {$450.00} worth of bitcoin several years ago, when bitcoin 's trade value was less than half of what it is now. ( ~ {$3500.00} ) Currently, bitcoin is trading for roughly {$7000.00}. A few months back I changed phone numbers. I contacted Cash App, which I registered an account with using my prior phone number, asking them to update my information to match the new number as the old line was closed and could not receive a verification code. They informed me that they can only merge the account with a new one, and only after my identity is confirmed. They recommended I do this by signing up for their Cash Card service as it was the easiest way to verify my identity using my social security info. I contacted them again after successfully signing up for the card, and provided them with the following information to show that both accounts were mine : $ cashtag username for both accounts, old and new. Phone number for both accounts. Last 3 digits of associated bank accounts for each, ensuring both accounts matched. Last 4 digits of debit card associated with prior account. Last 4 digits of the newly acquired Cash Card obtained through their verification process. Zip code associated with the Cash Card Their response was as follows : " Thank you for providing me with that information once again. I know this process has been tedious and frustrating for you. I attempted to merge your accounts and fro security reasons, I was unsuccessful. As it is we have exhausted all options to help you gain access to your old account. For the protection of your current account, we can not manually override this decision. I understand that you had a bitcoin balance in that account. We are unable to reverse or refund any previous bitcoin transactions. I know that this is not the resolution you are looking for and I wish I had better news for you. " After some arguing, they asked me to update my bank information on the new account to make sure all information matched between the new and old accounts. I did so, notified them, and received this response : " I really appreciate you trying that. I attempted again with the old bank account linked to your new Cash App account however unfortunately was still unable to merge these accounts together. Moving forward, you will not be able to access this account. Youre welcome to continue using your new Cash App account. " Attempts to get information about why exactly they couldn't were ignored completely and deferred to legal representatives who no doubt do not have access to the requested information. The following is my email requesting information from support : " For my own records and for the purpose of filing a CFPB complaint, could you answer the following questions for me? What is the reason why Cash App can not merge the two accounts, even after matching bank account info was linked to each account? ( beyond protecting my current account, which is empty ) What is the current amount of bitcoin associated with the old account that is being taken back by Square? What is Square doing with the funds in the account now that ive been locked out of it? What will happen to the old account after Square takes the funds? '' Their response : " All legal requests can be served to our agent at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX " XXXX '' ). Please contact XXXX directly for the closest branch to you. Please follow up with XXXX for any future requests. '' The text " XXXX '' was linked to a website, but the link was broken. As it stands Cash App has effectively stolen nearly {$1000.00} worth of bitcoin from me under the guise of " protecting my current account, '' which is completely empty as they asked me to make it solely for this purpose. They have instead shifted blame onto me, the consumer, for not updating my phone number beforehand which I could not have foreseen needing to be done.

Completely disgusted with Square. Last XXXX XX/XX/2021 to be exact, I opened a Square account to assist me and my XXXX XXXX XXXX in accepting payments via credit and debit card. However, upon opening Square almost immediately suspended my account and without any explanation. Then, another couple days later they returned my account to good standing. All was well ... .I thought .... Then, yet again... I receive another email from Square another couple days later stating they had to close my account. Again, no explanation. During the times it was open and involving the very first transaction deposit into the account of {$100.00}, I had problems with charges to my account by XXXX XXXX. Basically here is the problem. I was charged a total of 5 times by XXXX XXXX for 3 total ordered meals. Then, I had to file a complaint on the quality of 2 of the orders therefore ... .requesting 2 of the valid orders to be refunded as well as the 3 invalid orders to be refunded. The charges are : XXXX XXXX - {$16.00} {$11.00} {$27.00} Cancelled immediatlely after pressing order submit {$13.00} Received order - melted! Melted ice cream had to be thrown away. {$18.00} Cancelled this order as well ... .immediately Problem was I was making XXXX XXXX orders, and I am very aware of how it works and their cancellstion policy. Their policy is as long as you cancel your order before the restaurant accepts the order ( begins preparinig it ), then you may cancel and if there was a hold on your card it will be returned to the card no fees or charges assessed. Well, I IMMEDIATELY cancelled both of the orders that I placed in error. There is absolutey no possible way they could have begun preparing the food even before I cancelled them. However, XXXX XXXX because of them having messed up several o my orders prior to this ... .they were unable to return the charges to my card and advised me I would need to contact my bank to get refunded. Which ... .I did. And I did again. And I did again. And once again ... ... .in the last months since this happened I have contacted Square between 7-10 times. I have received ZERO response. ZERO refund. ZERO correspondence. I have emailed Square multiple times, because as I stated earlier Square closed my account so I am unable to contact Square by phone. The only option to contact them if you are not a member is by email. I have also submitted dispute forms with all of the info related to the charges by XXXX XXXX multiple times as well. In XXXX I filed. XXXX I filed again. XXXX again. XXXX again. Again ... ... ZERO response, ZERO correspondence, ZERO refunded. I would like these unauthorized charges returned to me. The charges to be returned are {$13.00} Melted ice cream {$27.00} Order placed but immedaitely cancelled... ..DID NOT receive this order. {$18.00} Order placed and immediately cancelled ... ..DID NOT receive this order. Total to be returned : {$58.00} Also I would like to file a complaint on Sqaure for ignoring me, and my valid customer requests for assistance. As well as them not offering ANY other way of contacting customer service once I was no longer a member. There are still charges and account questions to be addressed AFTER the closure ... and therefore they need to make their customer service more easily availble. I have asked multiple times in email to be contacted and again I never have been not one time. I will be sending screen shots of my proof. Proof of me emailing. Proof of me submitting dispute/chargeback requests. Proof of amounts taken from my account. Proof of me asking for contact. Nothing and it has now been 7 going on 8 months. SQUARE is horrible for providing any kind of customer service ....

On XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX a transaction between myself and a XXXX XXXX who claimed to be a home maintenance contractor occurred in the amount of {$1500.00} via the Square Cash Application was initiated. The transaction was noted to be for services to be performed. The services to be performed were to be completed on or before XX/XX/XXXX to which they never were. I reached out to the merchant, Mr. XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX to which he had replied that he acknowledged the work hadn't been completed and that he would be returning my deposit on XX/XX/XXXX. I reached out to him on XX/XX/XXXX and he has yet to respond. At this point I acknowledge that I have been defrauded by this individual who has used the Cash application as his platform to take this action. On XX/XX/XXXX, I initiated a payment request to this individual for return of erroneous refund via Cash Application. It sat unresponded to. On XX/XX/XXXX I reached out to the Bank that issued the debit card utilized to make the deposit to this individual and initiated a dispute. The bank XXXX XXXX ( whom I will also be filing a complaint against ) opened the dispute ; and advised that the transaction would be looked into for fraud. On XX/XX/XXXX @ XXXX EST I received a text message from Square Cash advising that the payment for refund of erroneous deposit for services request I sent to Mr. XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX had failed. Soon as I received this message I went to the Cash Application and submitted a support ticket advising that the payment of {$1500.00} transacted to this individual on XX/XX/XXXX was fraudulent and I asked for Square Cash to investigate on my behalf. I was shocked to receive only an automated response stating that my account had been closed and that the decision to close my account was final. No mention of the issue of fraud that had occurred. I again submitted another ticket via the support portal again reaching out for help to investigate this matter of fraud on XX/XX/XXXX. This time I received a response stating that my case # XXXX had been closed because it had been more that a week since they had heard from me. This is bogus because no one ever reached out to or notified me regarding my fraud inquiry. Furthermore that ID number provided links to no where. No information can be obtained which leads me to believe that it's bogus. In response to my dispute filed with my bank, Square advised that the transaction was valid based on the initial transaction going through successfully ; however Square neglected to advised my bank of the attempt to recoup my funds noting the payment as erroneous nor did they advise the bank of my many attempts to have Square Cash investigate the transaction as fraudulent. As a consumer using an application established to provide consumers with a safe, efficient means of making transactions for the procurement of goods and services, Square Cash failed to properly investigate this matter to include reaching out to the merchant to provide proof that the goods/services were truly provided as contracted. ( i.e. receipts, photos, contracts etc ). They were also negligent in providing complete information regarding this issue to my bank. I leveraged this application as a means to complete a documented transaction which could be traced and/or investigated should an issue such as this arose. This application appears to support fraudulent activity. It does not take proper measures to identify, prevent or investigate fraud. I would like a fair and full investigation into this matter in hopes that I can provide evidence that I have to prove my case of services not being rendered and having my {$1500.00} returned back to me rightfully. Thank you,

I authorized a {$720.00} on CashApp for a recipient on XX/XX/2020. After this transaction, on XX/XX/2020, I got a fraud alert message via email and text notification about a {$0.00} charge from XXXX XXXX XXXX. I tried to check my online banking and my account was blocked so I contacted the customer service on the phone number XXXX. I told the agent I spoke with that I did not authorize the the XXXX transaction but I did authorize the {$720.00} previously stated above. However, the agent was under the impression that the cashapp transaction was not authorized. As a result, that transaction was reversed on XX/XX/XXXX. On XX/XX/2020, I got a call from the recipient that CashApp had withdrawn the money out of her account because there was an open dispute with my bank that the transaction was a fraud. I then called XXXX customer service that same day and asked that the money be returned to CashApp because I did authorize that transaction. Barclays sent the money back to CasApp but up to date the recipient do not still have the money. I have reach out to CashApp so many times but they are not releasing the money. I file a dispute with my bank but I got an email from Cashapp to ask my bank so cancel the dispute so that they will release the money to the recipient. I did so by asking my bank to cancel the dispute because CashApp was going to release the money. I forward a copy of my bank cancellation of the dispute to CashApp and then I receive below email from CashApp : Hi there, We compared the transaction you brought to our attention with your account history. We determined that we received the transaction in question from a known device. This device had accessed your XXXX XXXX account prior to this event. Based on this information, we do not have enough evidence to determine the activity was unauthorized and have denied your claim. This concludes our investigation into this claim. We recommend speaking with anyone who had access to your device at the time of the transaction. If your phone was lost/stolen during the time of the transaction and you wish to file a police report, Square will cooperate in their investigation. You can also share the following contact information below with law enforcement if you choose to file a report : Square , Inc.

I am submitting a complaint against Cash App ( Square, Inc. ). On XX/XX/2020, My Cash App, which is connected to my Cash Card, was charged {$380.00} from XXXX XXXX XXXX. I went on Cash Apps website and went through the proper steps to report the suspicious transaction on XX/XX/2020. Later that evening, I received a response via email from XXXX, who works with Cash App Support. In her email, she stated that she wasnt able to find the specific transaction I was referring to and she asked me to send either the transaction ID or a screenshot of the transaction. On XX/XX/XXXX, I sent her a screenshot of the transaction and offered to provide any additional information necessary to complete the investigation. After 6 days of not receiving a response, I emailed XXXX from Cash App Support on XX/XX/XXXX, requesting an update on my report and still didnt receive a response from her or anyone else from Cash App Support. On XX/XX/XXXX, I submitted report again for the same charge on my account, hoping to receive a response and an update on my situation. Around XXXX, on the same day, I received a response from XXXX with Cash App Support. I was told the following We are unable to open a dispute claim on your behalf with the card network. Our Terms of Service ( https : //cash.app/legal/us/en-us/card-agreement ) require you to contact us no later than 60 days after the date of the transaction. On XX/XX/XXXX, I replied to XXXX, explaining that I had already contacted Cash App within the 60-day timeframe to open a dispute claim and I didnt receive a response from XXXX, and I included screenshots of every email between XXXX and I. On the same day, I received an email response from XXXX with Cash App Support, who stated the following : Cash App is not a financial entity that can make a dispute between two parties. On the contrary, we are merely the bridge between two parties in order to make transactions and payments easier for everybody but in the end, it is up to you and your criteria to decide which person you wish to send funds. The email I received from XXXX led me to suspect that every email Ive received from Cash App Support since XXXX was from an automated system. Each of their introduction sentences were almost verbatim and the emails I received in XXXX all contain We are unable to open a dispute claim on your behalf with the card network. Our Terms of Service ( https : //cash.app/legal/us/en-us/card-agreement ) require you to contact us no later than 60 days after the date of the transaction. Cash Apps Card Agreement Terms of Service state the following : We will determine whether an error occurred within 10 business days after we hear from you and will correct any error promptly. If we need more time, however, we may take up to 45 days to investigate the complaint or question. If we decide to do this, and your account is registered with us, we will credit your Card Account for return of the credit amount to your Cash App within 10 business days for the amount you think is in error, so that you will have the use of the funds credited to your Cash App for funding your Card Account during the time it takes us to complete our investigation. Upon submitting my report of the transaction in XXXX, I did not receive a response within 10 business days, nor did I receive an update on if my claim would take up to 45 days to further investigate. The only customer support that is available for Cash App is through email, and is likely an automated system. I am submitting this complaint because Cash App has not abided by their Card Agreement Terms of Service and thus is responsible for the money taken from my account.

As per records shown on my XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX checking account, on a XXXX XX/XX/XXXX an unknown person to me, someone supposedly called XXXX WEAKLY used Cash App to send me {$600.00}. Upon checking my checking account, I thought it had been a big mistake XXXX poor person ) and decided at that moment to send the money back to her. But, first I waited for some communication from her since that was so strange! Then, the same day she communicated through Cash App that she wanted the money back and I was ready to send it to her. After all it was not my money. And so, I did send the {$600.00} back to her using Cash App as per XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX dated XXXX XX/XX/XXXX. For me " all was well, and I was happy that I had helped someone fix a financial mistake and recover her money ''. Not so fast ... On XX/XX/XXXX ( one month from the date of that occurrence ) upon checking my XXXX XXXX XXXX account in the morning, I saw that {$600.00} was being processed in favor of XXXX WEAKLY ( this time as a recurring payment! ). I immediately called XXXX XXXX XXXX to alert them XXXX there was nothing I could do to stop it because it was still processing ). The XXXX XXXXepresentative saw what had occurred in XXXX because we talked about it, and now it was the opposite. XXXX XXXX was taking money from me. I never heard of her, has never done any business with her, and have no idea of her existence until that moment. XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX representative told me not to worry that they were going to credit my account with that amount and were going to start an investigation. They did credit my account and I waited for the result of their investigation. Assuming that everything was going well, I waited. Then on XX/XX/XXXX upon checking my personal checking account in the morning I see that XXXX XXXX XXXX reversed and took back the {$600.00} and my account was negative alleging that I purposefully sent the {$600.00} to that person on XX/XX/XXXX! I couldn't believe my ears! I called the claims department many times in trying to argue the point of my innocence in all this and offered to help and helped them in all the ways I could including contact and emails with the FBI, and reporting it to the site IC3.gov. When I realized that XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX denied my claim, I went after Cash App calling them many, many times only to hear the same almost recorded message that we are sorry that that happened to you but there is nothing we can do because now it has been over 90 days. And then advised me to go back to Cash app and request the {$600.00} back from XXXX XXXX which I tried but that name is nowhere to be found in Cash App. Very strange! I waited and waited for a favorable solution from either XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX who did not dispute it the right way, but filed as fraud XXXX or Cash App, but neither company cared enough to do something about it. Cash App processes have to be fixed. Had I received a message from Cash App saying " XXXX XXXX is sending you {$600.00}, do you know this person? '' I would have said NO and it would have been the end of the story. No one had to waste so much time on this scam. Recently I found out from Cash App that the so called XXXX XXXX asked for the money back on that weekend and quickly disputed the transaction with her bank ( no idea which one ). And it seems that that has prevented me from getting my money back! Both XXXX XXXX XXXX and Cash App have failed to protect me as their client. And so I need your help because it might be possible that XXXX XXXX is doing this to other innocent victims. Any good person that believes in doing the right thing. GOOD has to WIN over evil.

This is a XXXX rental scam. Ive actually been scammed twice ( pretty much at the same time and in two different cities ) and so will be filing two separate reports. ( Update, the scam I reported first was just communicated to me that its been closed, and declined. The complaint ID was XXXX. ) I am absolutely mortified that I could have been so naive as to fall for this twice, but the communications between the landlords seemed legit and the leases they provided also seemed very legitimate. I also feel that the situation was amplified by the weirdness around CV19 & not being able to meet up with people in person. I live in Arkansas, but am researching XXXX XXXX programs, and so Ive been searching out new potential cities to live. I found a reasonably priced apartment in XXXX, PA. This is the scam I am reporting in this claim. My initial contact with XXXX XXXX was made on XX/XX/XXXX where I responded to his XXXX ad about subleasing his 1b 1b apartment in XXXX, PA. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX I was under the impression that XXXX was the person currently living in the apartment, so he would be the one subleasing out his place to me. He said that I could contact the landlord, " XXXX XXXX '' directly and gave me his email. XXXX After me and XXXX emailed back and forth for a few days, I ended up sending him a total of {$2600.00} via the Cash app on XX/XX/2020, under the impression that I was paying for 3 months rent from XXXX. I paid in two separate payments because the total was too large to send all at once. I was given the cash tag $ XXXX ( which XXXX said was his wife ) to send the payment to through the Cash app. So my bank statement shows I have one payment of {$2000.00}, and another payment of {$620.00}. Immediately after I paid, he stopped responding promptly and I knew I had been scammed. I just wanted to leave my current living situation so badly, that I convinced myself it was because of CV that I couldnt see the apartment, and that made sense. ( I had requested to see the apartment via XXXX but was told because he and his wife were so old and the risk of CV prevented them from leaving the house, that thats why they couldnt travel the long distance to show me the space virtually. ) Because I was under the impression that he was so old, was another justification I applied to any concerns I had. Upon realizing Id been scammed, which was pretty quickly after Id sent the money ; I tried finding an avenue of reaching out to the Cash app company, but there was literally NO way that I could. They dont have any human operators available and there are no courses of action I could find in order to open a claim or dispute charges. I have since notified my bank ( XXXX ) and disputed the charges, but I dont know anything yet about if I am capable to receive any sort of reparations. After being shuffled around between the XXXX police department, to my local police department ( XXXX, AR ) trying to file a cyber crime police report, I finally was told to file a police report in Arkansas, because thats technically where the crime occurred, even though it was purported to have occurred in XXXX. The police report was filed in XXXX XXXX, with the XXXX, AR police department, on XXXX, and the police report number is XXXX. Thank you so much, and please do let me know if theres any further information I can provide. ( Also, I apologize that the files I provided were screenshots and not an actual pdf. file ; for some reason my computer couldn't access the link and was having trouble downloading the actual file. But I can try and locate the files as they are on a different computer should that be requested ).

This is the letter I sent to CASH APP, along with about 45 e-mails trying to correct this issue. . XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, XXXX XXXX # XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX Telephone : XXXX Email : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX CASH APP ) XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, CA XXXX To avoid legal action, the person reviewing or responding to this Complaint, it is strongly suggested, that if you do not have the authority or ability to correct this situation immediately, then take this to your superiors immediately. I cant point to the exact transaction in question, because this is a new account ( $ XXXX telephone ( XXXX ) XXXX ), the transaction and/or account of which Im complaining about is ( $ XXXX ( XXXX ) XXXX ) which I suspect is now closed. The facts of the transaction in question, is as follows : That on XX/XX/XXXX I transferred {$1100.00} to my CASH APP account ( $ XXXX telephone ( XXXX ) XXXX ) from my XXXX XXXX checking account. I then attempted to send cash to two ( 2 ) friends, {$800.00} to XXXX XXXX at telephone XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, and {$400.00} to XXXX XXXX at telephone XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. The transfer to Mr. XXXX was successful, but the transfer to Ms. XXXX failed, supposedly for security reason ( s ). I was sent an E-Mail, which informed me that the money would be refunded back to my bank account in 3-5 days. This never happened. I have been reaching out to you, since XX/XX/XXXX, by way of over XXXX E-Mails ( Complaints ) to CASH APP Support built into the CASH APP APP. All E-Mails 40 pages are attached to this letter, and all have met with negative results ). Then out of desperation I turned to the internet, which gave me a CASH APP Customer Support telephone number. I don't believe that this number is associated with CASH APP at all, it appears to be some kind of scam, the telephone numbers are as follows XXXX, XXXX XXXX, and XXXX, these people are answering the Phone, and identifying themselves as CASH APP customer support representatives. They are rude, crude, disrespectful, and unprofessional, no one there speaks English very well, and they become frustrated quickly, and then they call you out of your name, calling me an " XXXX XXXX XXXX ''. Then they attempt to elicit personal information by asking you to download the apps XXXX, and XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX where they want access to your device, when I refused, they said the only way they could help me, is if I had a friend or relative who is a verified CASH APP user, and they could deposit the missing {$400.00} in there account, Because I work in the IT field, this sounded suspicious. So, then they told me to go to any XXXX, and that they could give me my money, I refused. To sum this up, I need my money, this missing money has already caused hardship, because I still payed XXXX XXXX, believing that this money would be replaced by XX/XX/XXXX, and since it wasnt, my electricity got cut off, and over {$300.00} worth of food perished. Again, I need my money, and now I am expecting you, to make it available to me in my new CASH APP account $ XXXX TELEPHONE XXXX. Should any question arise as a result of this letter, please do not hesitate to contact me at the telephone number address provided in the Letterhead.

Cash app card recently added a new feature for direct deposit. DONT USE THIS FEATURE! on the app they advertise that you can get your stimulus check direct deposited straight into your account from the IRS that it's fast and as soon as they receive notice from the IRS they post the money. All LIES!!! After I use the account and routing number that the cash app gave me for my account on the IRS website to send my stimulus check. My stimulus check of {$1200.00} was supposed to be deposited on XX/XX/XXXX that's what it says on the official IRS website. XX/XX/XXXX come there's nothing I tried reaching out there's no number of customer service for cash app. You can use the app it message customer service for help they take a couple of days to get back to you and are no help. The first customer service rep XXXX said that he doesn't see anything from the IRS regarding my account but that it takes 1 to 5 business days for direct deposit to clear. Wait what the app said that it clears right away. Lies! False advertisement. I would have went another way if I knew that. 5 days later still nothing I reach out again this time with documents from the IRS website stating that they sent it on the XXXX. Now XXXX said if they're still nothing after 10 business days then he will investigate it further. Which is straight XXXX I was dependent upon that stimulus check I'm no longer working I have kids like this really hurt my family and me to the max. After 10 days still nothing XXXX XXXX has the nerve to ask me to send him the documents from the IRS official website saying it was sent. Hello I've already did that. He also States to make sure I check the account and routing number is the same. Hello I've been doing that every day since this whole situation started. To top that all off I received mail from the IRS stating the same thing that my stimulus payment of {$1200.00} has arrived and was deposited on the XXXX into my account. Where is it?? I then send the cash app Representatives 3 documents from the IRS proven that the IRS are stating it was sent on the XX/XX/XXXX. The date now was XX/XX/XXXX. I started doing research they found out that a lot of people was having problem with theirs cash app direct deposit regarding there unemployment checks and so on. That they blamed it on some new system. Some people still not have received money at all they just stole it and just XXXX XXXX others it took weeks. What the XXXX is going on! I feel like they took advantage of me and everyone else during this pandemic and this horrific time. I say that because after researching their policies which I had to find on the internet it's not on their website or the app. On there is says that you take a rest and it's not guaranteed for your direct deposit to show up. What the XXXX!! Is this real? Also that the money is not ensure like regular Banks. The only reason I did this is because I had cash up for a while and there was no problems sen money person to person. But this new direct deposit feature. Is a scam is doesn't work they use it to basically steal your money. Cash app is through XXXX XXXX. But it gets confusing because some information says the account and routing numbers are from XXXX XXXX when other states it's from XXXX XXXX XXXX. Both hard to contact. You leave a message and no one gets back to you. Hopefully this warns someone else out there that's thinking about using that feature. Dont do it! Now today XX/XX/20 I received the email from cash app team that a new representative name XXXX will be handling my case from here. So we'll see what happens. I'll keep my account on here updated.

Dear Sir, I have a CashApp account. On XX/XX/2020, there was a discrepancy on my CashApp account. I went to XXXX to get a phone number to call CashApp. XXXX showed the number XXXX. I spoke with a man named XXXX XXXX, who told me he had to set up " dummy accounts '' to clear the pending message. I followed his instructions to set up the " dummy accounts '' only to find out he was taking money out of my two ( 2 ) bank accounts which were with CashApp. He took {$2600.00} from my XXXX XXXX account and {$6300.00} from my XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) account. This was a total of {$9000.00}. Both banks, the XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX have reimbursed my account with the amount of funds taken. However, as of XX/XX/2020, I had {$3500.00} in my CashApp account. On XX/XX/XXXX, {$260.00} was taken from my CashApp account and then {$1900.00} was also taken out, which was a total of {$2200.00}. I have petitioned CashApp, owned by Square , Inc., on several occasions to reimburse me the amount of money taken out of my account. The company did not address the issue of funds from my CashApp account. I have contacted the following agencies and filed reports : XXXX ) XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, complaint # XXXX XXXX ) Federal Bureau of Investigation at XXXX XXXX ) Attorney General of Michigan, XXXX XXXX, refer to XXXX no : XXXX XXXX ) Consumer Report to FTC : Report Number XXXX XXXX ) XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, CA : ID # XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX 6 ) Certified letter via United States Postal Service, to XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX of Square , Inc. Tracking no : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. Signed and received but no response from XXXX XXXX XXXX. This was mailed to him at XXXX XXXX XXXX # XXXX XXXX XXXX, CA XXXX. The only response I received was through the XXXX XXXX XXXX and the person responding from CashApp suggested that I contact my banks to get reimbursed from them. However, the funds which were taken out of my CashApp account on XX/XX/2020, did not come out of my bank account, but out of the funds I had in my CashApp account. On XXXX, I withdrew my remaining balance of {$1200.00} from my CashApp account to avoid being scammed out of the rest of my money. However, CashApp ( Square, Inc. ) has made no effort to compensate me for the money taken out of my account. Since my incident, I have checked and found many people have been scammed through CashApp. Apparently, XXXX XXXX XXXX is not running a tight ship in regards to him employees because too many people are being scammed through his company. If he does not see the need to build his business around protecting the consumer, then he does not need to be in business at all. I think the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ( CFPB ) should take a hard stand against companies who run such loose practices which allow scammers access to the consumers accounts. Companies with these type of practices should not be in business which involves the consumers. I am currently XXXX XXXX XXXX and my husband is XXXX. We currently have many XXXX XXXX and are paying exorbitant costs for various XXXX. We do not have the option to lose money by such scamming tactics. My husband and I support the Senate passage of the bipartisan Stop Senior Scams Act. This entire scam happened to us because we had no idea of what was going on. We even though XXXX would provide us with correct information to CashApp. We had no idea that information could be fraudulent. There was so much that we were unaware of that allowed the scammers to take advantage of us as seniors. We do need your help to resolve this issue. Thank you so much for your assistance.

Sunday XX/XX/XXXX : I downloaded a program from the XXXX app store called Cash App. I followed the instructions to link a debit card and bank checking account. It appeared everything was configured correctly but I could not add funds to the Cash App. I tried repeatedly to get the program to work without success. I googled the issue of " cash app transfer fail '' and immediately found a link to support that appeared to be Cash App. There was a phone number listed and I clicked the phone number to call support. Upon retracing my steps after I realized a scam had occurred I found that the phone number changes when clicked on. When I called the number a person answered and said they were the Cash App customer service. I explained my issue and the person began troubleshooting the problem. After 29 minutes of trying to solve the problem one transaction was completed for {$20.00} and many had failed. They told me to copy and paste a link into Cash App and click send. The funds were being transferred to a test server to further diagnose the issue. The amount was pending in my checking account but they assured me it would be returned. The scammer also had me download a screen viewer so they could help me navigate the Cash App in real time and see my phone screen. The call concluded with the scammer saying he would call back later with more information. Monday XX/XX/XXXX : The scammer called in the morning claiming to have resolved the issue. We tried to transfer money several times and most failed again but one transaction did go through. Once that transaction went through they asked me to try and purchase XXXX XXXX, which is one of the reasons I was interested in the Cash App, so I did and the transaction failed several times but then went through. They then had me copy and paste the " test link '' and transfer the XXXX XXXX to their server. The transfer functions failed many times during the process so they were going to keep working on it and call me back in the morning. Tuesday XX/XX/XXXX : I spoke with the scammer in the morning and did not have any success transferring any funds. They were going to keep testing and call me back later. I spoke them again early evening and we tried transferring funds and again many failed but one went through. They had me repeat the process of buying and transferring XXXX XXXX. At this point my bank sent a fraud alert and I started to realize this may not be legitimate. I told the person I receive an alert and they immediately transferred me to the accounting department who assured me that everything was fine and that the would be transferring the total amount of cash back into my Cash App with an extra $ XXXX {$500.00} dollars as gift for all the inconvenience. The accounting person was a woman named XXXX. She also stated that they were having serious issue with their servers and the issue was widespread. I hung up with her and immediately called my bank as the realization of a fraud set in. I have since secured my accounts and closed the Cash App bank accounts. One of my biggest issues with this situation is how easy it was to reach the scammers and how challenging it was to contact Cash App. These links and phone numbers are active and live as of this writing XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX. I hope they can be shut down and removed because I know someone if getting scammed as I am writing this letter. https : XXXX https : //cashapptransferfail.com/ ( XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX I also have screen shots of the website. This is one of the most embarrassing and unpleasant experiences I have known.

The next day Monday XX/XX/XXXX i checkd my bank account and the money had been deposited to it..i had monry on my card so i made a purchase and I had XXXX $ left on my card ... the next day tuesday the XXXX i received a notification from cashapp saying i spemt {$250.00} at XXXX and anothee saying i spent {$100.00} XXXX i didmt think anything of it until i realized these transactions already were completed. i XXXX received a alert to add miney to my cashapp because it was XXXX dollars i was shocked but assumed it was a mistake amd the money would be on my XXXX card do i could just transfer it back avn them bk out only there was no deposit made to my apple cash card after the XXXX from monday. i checked my bank account and no funds were deposited from XXXX since besides the 3 i tht were placed earlier tht day from cashapp i email casbapp because they have no phone contact and told them my issue thinking this was an easy quick fix .. i was wrong they stated they could not refund a merchamt charge.. i explained yo them tht i did instant transfres so someone made a mistake i semt screenshots of all accounts reflectiing tht ftom cashapp XXXX amd the bank ..they said to contact apple becsuse XXXX took the money.I called & they sd they see no deposits past the ones on monday and to call my bank i called my bank and i got the same answer.i emailed cashapp back and explained to thm what apple and my bank said..that they do not see any transactions past monday the XXXX so they had no clue who took the money or where it went there was only they said once again its XXXX so i called XXXX again only to receive the same answet tht is was cashappd mistake i have been emailing them since i found out tuesday they refuse to issue a refund stating i must contact appl which i have done even with all tranaction history they are refusing to reverse these charges. im completely stressed out and emotional over this because i have no money to give away i had about XXXX $ on the card now it sits with a negative balance of XXXX $ on top of losing the XXXX $ i had i was supposed yo have a refund go to tht card. i was told the refund was issued on wednesday fir {$180.00} i have no deposifs to the card at all so on top of lising XXXX $ is knowing the XXXX $ has probaby gottn stolen as well cashapp has no support line besides email and their customer service is extremely sub par im out of about XXXX $ and i dont have tht type of money to give away especially during a pandemic.

XX/XX/2019, I was a victim of fraud. Someone contacted me via XXXX posing as a friends business. This individual asked for my number and contacted me via cell. My cash app information was requested to " allegedly '' send funds as I was a winner of a contest. The person called me was able to successfully send themselves funds, I recieved notifaction for the 2nd transaction, I became uneasy and realized this person was an imposter. I then took a screen shot of the conversation via direct message via XXXX and Cash app support was contacted immediately regarding the fraud. Cash app support responded to my complaint and instructed me to dispute the transactions with my banking instituion. I filed the banking dispute with XXXX XXXX XXXX. Cash app received notification of the claim from XXXX, then closed my account. I attempted to speak with someone regarding this and I was advised that my account can not be re opened. Cash app support also advised that " no additional information could be given ''. There were a series of additional communications sent as a reply to XXXX. This email address is the only known email that I have been able to successfully respond to, however, when sending mutliple communications to XXXX, I began to recieve bounce backs emails stating that the XXXX is unmonitered and that I would need to submit via app within the profile where you will find the support link. Once I have submitted my ticket to the support via app within the profile, XXXX repsonds to my email XXXX the same response as the previous email sent advising me to submit via app within the profile via help link. This is what I call " going in circles ''. This is very frustrating when trying to escalate to have this resolved and re open my account. As a soultion, I created a new cash app id from my secondary phone number XXXX with a new email address. The banking information however did not change. Cash app would not activate the new id and closed this account as well. I am alarmed by this as I am not sure why this would be an issue as I did not complete fraud. I emailed cash app support from the new account and recieved a response stating my account is closed, no further information can be provided, and to read the terms and conditions. It is understood that cash app is not the only mobile cash application, however, as a consumer I would like to excerise the right to file a complaint requesting assistance in this matter with CFPB. At the present moment, especially with the global covid pandemic crisis, we are living day to day during an unprecedented time. The last thing I would want to do is to force a person to risk themselves to find a money transfer location while the world has literally been titled on it's axis. Only business in operation are essential businesses. To be frank, money services are found in retail stores in which some are closed. For those that remained open, there is a risk of infection when heading to the stores along with everyone else. Square Inc support was contacted and I was verbally told Square inc support can not help with cash app as this service is not managed by live representative. I then asked if there was corporate office to write to, I was advised there was not a corporate office or dept I could esclate this matter to for review. It is my hope that I will save consumers the headache of unfair business practices as it relates to mobile apps & the internet. Below you will find the cash app claim number. Cash App Case # XXXX

On Friday, XX/XX/XXXX of XXXX at approximately XXXX am ( Eastern ) I attempted to transfer funds in the amount of {$800.00} to an associate of mine via CashApp. When I attempted to submit the transfer through their mobile app I received a message that the transfer had Failed. I inquired with my associate to see if the funds had gone into her account or not and was informed that they had not. Since the transaction failed through CashApp I sent the {$800.00} through a competing service called XXXX. I would like to note that if I go to my transaction history even now that the Failed message is still present. On XX/XX/XXXX I was going through my bank records and noticed that CashApp had indeed deducted {$800.00} from my account on XX/XX/XXXX, even though they had alerted me that the transaction had failed. I immediately contacted CashApp through the support portal on their mobile app. I received an email acknowledging receipt of my inquiry on XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX am XXXX XXXX XXXX. Throughout the day I corresponded with multiple XXXX representatives regarding the matter. I was originally told by a representative named XXXX that my particular debit card was not supported by XXXX and that was why the transaction failed and thus the money could not have been taken out by XXXX. After supplying them with photographic evidence from my bank an internal case was opened XXXX XXXX # XXXX XXXX. At XXXX pm I was then informed by a representative named XXXX that a refund would post to my account in XXXX days. On Thursday, XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX am XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX while still awaiting my refund ) I was sent an email stating that my case had been closed. I responded back letting them know that my funds had still not been refunded. After several correspondences back and forth I was told by a representative named XXXX that the {$800.00} had been refunded on XX/XX/XXXX ( The day they told me the transaction failed ). I informed XXXX that no funds had been refunded to me on that date or any date after that, and I have bank statements to support this assertion. It is important to note that I submitted a written request for CashApp to provide me the date, time, transaction number and any relevant information regarding the alleged refund- to date that request for information has NOT been honored or satisfied by XXXX XXXX On XX/XX/XXXX I filed a dispute with my bank to see if they could get the {$800.00} back from XXXX. My bank issued me a temporary credit of {$800.00} at that time. They closed the claim and reversed the credit on XX/XX/XXXX and took the {$800.00} back since they were unable to pursue XXXX for recovery since XXXX is a person-to-person payment service provider that solely transfers funds and doesnt provide for the purchase of goods and services. I continued to correspond with XXXX up until XX/XX/2021 when some urgent personal matters took the lions share of my time and attention. It was not until recently that I was informed that I would possibly be able to seek assistance through the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, so here I am asking to some assistance to having my money returned to me since my bank claims to be unable to assist me based solely on CashApps business type ; and neither on the merits of them taking my money and not giving it to the intended recipient, nor returning it to me. I will be happy to supply any screenshots and statements needed to help me get this issue resolved and put it behind me.

On XX/XX/2020 I searched XXXX for a LIVE contact in regards to my Cash App account. I did so to reactivate a lost Cash App that was found shortly afterwards. No compromised actions had taken place prior to that day. I located a phone number online after searching " Cash App Customer Service '' the site has recently changed from XXXX and now is XXXX. I dialed the number supplied by the website but immediately hung up due to an uneasy feeling about the situation. I was immediately called back by a man claiming his name was " XXXX '' with Cash App. I briefly discussed the situation and was asked by XXXX to supply my email address as well as phone number to reactivate the card ; along with the last 4 digits of the card in question. Once he located the account he proceeded to send multiple text alerts using the MAIN transaction number I have ever received Cash App Communications. He claimed that aside from himself no other person will ask for the codes he just sent but due to the situation he would need the codes to complete the process. He told me that everything was complete and that it would take roughly 2 hours for the card to be reactivated onto the account and that he would remove the new card. Minutes later I received another text alert from the MAIN Cash App number stating that the new card being sent was removed from the account. Almost immediately after that I received another text from the MAIN Cash App number stating my account was overdrawn to - {$2.00} which included the ATM Fee and the {$150.00} it contained. I DID NOT AUTHORIZE ANY WITHDRAWALS OR TRANSACTIONS. I immediately called the number back and was greeted with " Hello '' ... no name was ever given. It was a different gentleman who stated " Ma'am this is your fault. You called us. There is nothing you can do ''. Mind you they returned a brief call attempt which initiated the transaction after I hesitantly hung up. I then proceeded to change my access information and contacted the local authorities IMMEDIATELY. I filed a POLICE REPORT with XXXX County Sheriffs Department and have that information available as well. There has been NO LIVE communication as of this day with CASH APP. I have wasted valuable time sending repetitious emails to their supposed " Customer Help '' email address. Only to encounter seemingly automated/rehearsed responses that intentionally slow down the investigation process. At the bottom of each email states you can request a " Call Back '' through the Cash App Application. When i proceeded to do so I was emailed by a Cash App Representative stating the Call Back option was NOT AVAILABLE yet. But it specifically states it is in EVERY email up to that point. Cash App refuses to initiate or accept ANY LIVE COMMUNICATION. Upon reviewing their social media and website I am NOT THE ONLY ONE experiencing supicious and fraudulent activity from this company. The main reason being is that they REFUSE to speak with ANYONE. Which lays out : SCAMMERS PARADISE ''. They state it takes 45 days to complete an " Investigation '' but refuse to update ANYONE on the supposed process and it's OUR MONEY at stake. The don't even give you advice on what to do in the meantime to protect identities or speed up the process. Once again, I have filed a police report and have the information ready to supply when needed. Please help ALL Cash App Victims as to I AM NOT the only one harmed. This company needs to be investigated thoroughly!

I opened my Cash app mobile account about a year ago. This company is also affiliated with Square company. Cash app has poor communication service. They do not have a toll free phone number to even contact them about your account. Recently around XX/XX/XXXX, there was a problem with fees being deducted from monies that were being sent to me from family and friends through the Cash app. I contacted Cash app via email their " XXXX '' several times to find out what the fees were for, and never received any response, until months later I reached out to the company via XXXX around XX/XX/XXXX asking for customer service assisting regarding these fees being deducted every time I received monies through app either by payroll/direct deposit or through friends and family. After contacting this company via XXXX, they communicated someone from their support team would be contacting me. On XX/XX/XXXX someone emailed me from their company about something totally unrelated my issue, so I reach out again to them on social media XXXX to let them know this, because this was the only way I was getting any type of response through the company. Someone from their company emailed me again addressing the correct issue saying why the fees were being deducted, apparently because I upgraded my account to business is why the fees were being deducted. I explained to them, when I upgraded there was no disclaimer saying that I would be charged fees for upgrading, and would like to received a refund for the fees that were taken from me. Apparently, the fee amount is 2.75 % of each deposit made to your account. I explained to them, there was way more than 2.75 % deducted. Also, the app doesn't allow you to downgrade back to a Personal account, once you have upgraded to Business account. So therefore I was very upset. During this same communication with them by email, they responded back stating they will refund me my fees back onto my Cash app account. I don't believe the correct amounts were refunded, however, that issue was resolved. Now, recently my Cash app acccount has been officially closed, with a remaining cash balance of {$120.00}. I contacted the company again through the app via email, no response again until I reached out to their social media account via XXXX, and was someone from their would be in touch with me. I got a generic email asking me to verify my identity by sending them : A photo of the front and back of Passport or State ID Card, A photo of the front and back of your debit card ( preferably the one linked to your Cash App ) and A selfie of your face. After sending this information, they closed my account where I was not able to access my remaining funds on the app. I repeatedly sent emails asking, why was my account closed after I verified who I was to them. Also told them, that is fine if you want to close the account, but how am I supposed to get my remaining balance of {$120.00} back. I have NOT heard back from the company. I feel this was done out of retaliation because I confronted them about the fees from the business account. I had been using this account legally and did not violate any terms or agreement. I had been using the app for the past year, and never had any issues until questioned them about the business fees. I JUST WANT MY MONEY BACK AND A RESPONSE AS OF WHEN AND HOW IT WILL BE ISSUED TO ME, since I am not able to withdraw my funds from the closed account on the app.

A. Description of Dispute The financial impact of the issue : Cash App allowed a hacker to hack into my account, sell my stocks, sell my bitcoin, transfer all my cash out of my account, then shut it down. The total was over {$10000.00} at the time. The present value of these stocks and bitcoin would be over {$50000.00} now. Important details like dates or date ranges, products involved, and prices : XX/XX/2020 cash app was hacked and unknown person attempted to withdraw {$2000.00} from my cash app account. This attempt was blocked by cash app and my money was returned to my account. My account was locked while another card was ordered while they did an investigation. XX/XX/2020 my cash app account was hacked into again while my account was frozen. The hacker this time disconnected my email account and my phone number from my account so i wouldn't have access to it. The sold all my bitcoin ( {$1900.00} XXXX and all my stocks ( {$7500.00} XXXX and transferred that along with the cash i had in the account XXXX {$1000.00} XXXX out of my account then closed my account. There was nothing i could do but email support from cash app since they don't have live support. On XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX sent emails to cash app support telling them them what had happened and requested my money be returned and my account restored. With most email attempts i was just emailed back an automated email. A few of those times they asked me to write up a detailed description of what happened which i did several times with no response. Breach of contract Breach of contract means that the company made a you a promise ( either verbally, through a contract, or implied in their actions ), and then did not live up to that promise according to their terms of service to keep my account secure. Breach of warranty Breach of warranty means that a product or service did not live up to the quality that you would expect of that product or service. Cash app did not do what it said it would do in helping my stocks and bitcoin stay safe in my account free to buy and sell them as according to their terms of service. Negligence Negligence means that the company did not live up to an ordinary standard of care in a way that caused you damage. Every company is obligated to act in a reasonable way to protect their customers from harm. If a company fails to take normal precautions to prevent harm, then its responsible for the harm it caused you. Cash app locked my account instead of performing an investigation and refunding my money. They did not protect my financial investment. An intentional bad act. Cash app did not do anything to remedy the fact that i was defrauded out of {$10000.00} of my hard earned money and allowed hackers to drain my account and close it without restoring my money or stocks or any cash. They egregiously neglected their terms of service for unauthorized transactions. 2. The Harm or Damages You Experienced That was my entire life savings and also my money i used for emergencies and housing. I have since become homeless because i didn't have the money and have gone through a considerable amount of financial distress and emotional distress due to not having my savings that i had invested in cash app. Plus the amount of money the bitcoin and stocks would have gained in value is over {$30000.00} dollars as of today 's date.

On XX/XX/XXXX I contacted a company called XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX before booking to ensure I had correct information. I stated to her I seen a special online on XXXX for a spa party for me and a few of my friends. She advised me to go ahead and book which I did that same day. She contacted me letting me know that with XXXX I would not receive all the services so I canceled with XXXX to book directly through her site. I waited a few days until XXXX refunded my order to place the order through her direct website. Once I received my refund from XXXX, I proceeded to her website and booked the event for {$420.00}. I read the description and it stated verbatim You can choose services and if you need our location with party coordinator which she has went in on the website and tried to change but I have the screenshot of before and after she changed it without my knowledge. While I was on her website attempting to book the service I seen where she asked for customers location, so before proceeding I called again to ask if she would be traveling to us because what other reason would you need my address? She replied yes and I said great I will go ahead and book I just wanted to clarify. We hung the phone up and I proceeded to book. I received an email with all information including what, when, duration, price, and where. In which all of this information is the information I provided her with when booking on her website. I have the screen shots of that as well. She also changed that information without my knowledge because in the screenshot she sent me it states that you can edit booking and it is not the same address I gave when giving her my booking info. The address I gave her to come to which is also included in the booking email is XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX but she changed it to another address without my knowledge which I now figured out is XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, GA XXXX. It is not good business to change info on a service booked without the customers knowledge then blame the customer for your mistake and lie about it. I contacted XXXX with info about disputing the charge and sent them everything over proving I was being taken advantage of because she clearly changed her information after the fact she found out she was wrong. They offered me a provisional credit but eventually awarded to the business which I feel is not fair because there was information changed on her website and booking site without my knowledge after I received the information she gave me from the beginning. To me first impression is everything. I would have never decorated or cooked food for the event had I been aware it was going to be held at another location. This is two businesses taking advantage of a customer with valid evidence You can not tell a consumer one thing then go behind their backs and change it. If you would look at the email screenshots you will see the dates as to where she changed it from one location to another. Also, another screenshot is where she sent me a screenshot of her address where it clearly says edit booking and that is what she did prior to sending to me. Because my original email from the day I book XX/XX/XXXX has the booking address I gave her. There is a two part screenshot for the booking email I received before it was changed without my knowledge, I couldnt fit it all in one so there are two images.

On XX/XX/2021 I noticed a purchase on my Cash App Card that was made at a XXXX Store in XXXX at XXXX XXXX. The unauthorized transaction displayed that it was a Cash Card Purchase for {$140.00}. I immediately canceled my card and contacted The Vendor- XXXX. They took the report and told me to reach out to Cash App and give them the Case Number they gave me and they will join in on a Joint Investigation to find out the situation and would get back to me. I contacted Cash App and gave them the repot number from XXXX and the information to begin the complaint on their end. I was told that I would get a response in a few days. Today is XX/XX/2021 and thus far I have yet to receive an adequate response from Cash App regarding the return or refund of my stolen money. I received a new cash app card in the mail about 2 weeks later, and upon me receiving it I noticed that the envelope flap was open as if someone may have tampered with my mail, only to examine a bit closer to discover the seal on the envelope was not moistened at all in order to assure the proper sealing of the card. I immediately contacted Cash App and did not get a response until about 2 days later. I explained my issues about the arrival of the card and it not being secured and they told me to cancel that card and order a new one. I asked them if they could do a courtesy for me and assure that the next card is guaranteed safety and security, and they told me that Cash App does not do that. This only makes me believe that there is a network of criminals operating inside and outside of Cash App and they are legitimately stealing money from Cash App Card customers who may be having the same exact problems. I could not understand how I am holding my card in my pocket in another borough, and someone using myard to make a cash card purchase miles away, and this would make sense. This is not the first time I received a card from Cash App in a damaged envelope, but the card which I previously cancelled was received in a partially opened envelope, which now examining this situation in a birdseye view, I can see that the cards are being sent to a location unsecured and upon their receipt a ta staging location, the card ( s ) information is being skimmed in order to produce new cards, and then sealed and mailed to the customer in order to make them think that the card has been secured since it left the facility. I mentioned this to Cash App and they kept on with cyclic conversation that I had to order a new card then, which would only end me back in the middle of trying to ask Cash App to please send the new card in a more secured manner to assure that it will not be tampered with. thus far I have a cash app card that I am unable to physically use and {$140.00} has ben stolen from my account and Cash App refuses to return any calls or emails. FURTHERMORE, I just received information regarding a CASH APP Data Breach back in XX/XX/2021, which I had no knowledge of or received no Notification about from Cash App or Square. So since this Data Breach, I have been receiving hoardes of unsolicited phone calls from people who know my name and possibly even my social security number, and I was not notified! I am seeking all federal remedies to the fullest extent of the law which would allow me to adequately repair my credit file and other personal data which identifies me.

I submitted a case against cash app as they have not been helpful toward my money theft investigation that happend on XXXX XX/XX/2020 where a lot of charges came out of my account as I was holding the phone on my hands right beside my husband whom is my witness to these random transactions that cleared the bank. Cash app stated that they had completed the request on XX/XX/2020 however, they only returned the money for the XXXX transaction and did nothing to investigate the claims nor return the money that was stolen from me right before my eyes on XX/XX/2020 the parties involved in these transactions are as stated below. XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, and XXXX I have sent multiple emails and they replied by telling me that the XXXX stolen hat was sent to XXXX was returned and when the money was returned I took the money out of cash app and since I did take the money out they concluded that the transactions have been declined by them to investigate. My original claim is not that I took the money out of the cash app after only a little bit of it was returned my issue is that they let the thiefs get away with XXXX and are ignoring my emails and the information that I sent them then they stated that they have no new information and are unable to help me however, I have taken the right steps to protect my account and I tried to stop the transactions as they were happening and I called the police as they were happening and I called my other bank and XXXX as this transactions came through on XX/XX/2020. I have submitted all proof to them yet they do not answer me nor do they have disputed their transactions. according to them if you do not give access to some to your account and you report it they will investigate and return your money. The account were cash app was logged into when it happened is not the same device of the person who took the money and I had that device on my hands checking to see if my mortgage payment I submitted on XX/XX/2020 went through. I have attached a copy of their unauthorized transactions statement and I have done my part. I want them to do their part. III. Cash App Account and Communication ... 4.

On XX/XX/19 I purchased items in the sum of {$330.00} shipping included from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, company XXXX XXXX, but the recipient of the {$330.00} was XXXX XXXX. Then on XX/XX/19 he sent me the Tracking # not for XXXX or XXXX as he initially said, instead it was some private courier named : XXXX : XXXX Then on XX/XX/19 he sent me an early morning message requesting that I pay an additional sum of {$180.00} for VAT fees, which I bluntly refused. I'm able to provide the transcript of ongoing communication with that supplier from the XXXX platform. The XXXX XXXX center will also validate my claim that I started negotiations and transaction on XXXX platform with supplier. In addition, when I reached out to vendor via telephone he pretended to now know anything about transaction. Very strange and very disappointed. I told vendor that I've been a buyer on XXXX for years and never had such an encounter of misplaced trust. But he kept insisting and demanding that I must pay the money in order for the goods to be released. Then on XX/XX/19, I reached out to CashApp 's Customer Support via email, and was advised to send the refund request to the supplier, who was using the CashApp platform and after several hours he denied the refund request. Again I reached out to the support agent and she quickly responded that there wasn't anything further that she could do to assist me. I must state that she never advised me about filing a complaint with the CFPB, which I found after I began poring over the fine print on the bottom of the email re, CashApp 's policies etc and I found information for filing complaints through the CFPB. All the while, I kept trying to convince and reason with the supplier to be fair, honest, in dealing with me, a first time purchaser from him, that it was bad for business. But he just kept reminding me that without that additional {$180.00}, no goods would be released. Let me also add that prior to the demand for more monies, I was also inquiring about other products that the supplier had in stock, immediately he sent me a price quote and wanted me to commit to purchasing right away, without even delivery of the first shipment. But I held firm to wait until I receive the first shipment then we would be able to do some more business, but that first shipment never came, and he pocketed my {$330.00}! Another thing, while I was waiting for the shipment, I decided that I would create the product listing and begin to run traffic to my website. So I requested photos of the products from supplier but he never once sent a photo of any products. All those were flags, but by then he already was in possession of my {$330.00}. As of XX/XX/19, I haven't heard from supplier. He believes he has gotten of with a nice little windfall, but I refuse to be another victim of fraud and exploitation. I hope that I'll be allowed to upload a copy of the message transcript between me and the supplier, to give even more details of the ongoing transaction, and how others can avoid being duped by unscrupulous vendors. Kindly, help me right this wrong, and let this supplier and others like him know that they're not above the law, and that honesty still is, and always will be, the best policy. Thank you for your prompt attention to this serious matter. Best Regards,

I received several alerts back to back starting at XXXX from cash app via text messages that my card was used for purchases at XXXX in XXXX XXXX NJ XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/21. I live in XXXX XXXX and my card is in my possession! I immediately locked my account but didnt see any money in my account! The transactions show that the transactions came from an android phone, I have an XXXX! I went to the Cash app site for customer support only to find out that the only support offered was chat. I advised the cash rep via chat of the fraud. They advised me that I could not file a dispute while the transactions were pending. I was furious! I filed a police report with the XXXX XXXX XXXX police department case # XXXX. I XXXX and found a phone number for cash app XXXX.I called and filed a dispute two days later ( when the transactions completed ). At that time I was advised by the cash app representative that it would take 10 days for my claim to be resolved. I chatted with cash app representative on XX/XX/21, advised that I had filed a police report on XX/XX/21 ( but it wasnt in the police system until XX/XX/21 ). They told me that they could not take the report number and I would have to wait until I received a copy of the report to submit it. A copy of report would not be available until XX/XX/21. I then received an email approximately 4 days later asking about all of the devices I accessed my cash app from.I replied via email that up until Friday XX/XX/21 ( the date of the fraud ) that I had only used my XXXX XXXX XXXX. It uses XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX security VPN and yes its active. The other device is my at home computer a XXXX XXXX XXXX. I used my home computer to access my account to better correspond with them while on the phone with cash app. It is protected with XXXXXXXX XXXX and that was used after this happened. On XX/XX/21 sent a copy of my police report via email. On the 10th day, I hadnt received a call/correspondence and the money was not back into my account. I have done everything asked of me including the police report. So, I contacted their customer support via chat again and asked When would my {$1700.00} be back into my account? They never replied. My phone has two way authenticity by face recognition and password protected. Again, The police report was filed XX/XX/21 case # XXXX but wasnt available until Monday XX/XX/21 ( the report department is closed Friday-Sunday ). The report consist of names, dates and transactions made on my account. Again, My phone and my card are still my possession. No other person is allowed on my account. I have not saved my account on any android devices. At this point, I was desperate so, I went to my local XXXX and spoke with someone in the fraud department. They advised me that I would have to contact my bank. I am retired and only receive money once a month. I am recovering from a XXXX and Im very stressed out because I have no money to get my XXXX. Again, I HAVE NO MONEY. I asked cash support to notify me for any further needs to help this situation. Now theyre saying the merchant is allowed up to 45 days to investigate. Again, these fraudulent transactions emptied my account and I have no money to pay mortgage or get my medicine. Please help! Thank you kindly, Desperate Customer

To whom it may concern, The cash app is an app on my XXXX XXXX cell phone. On this application, I can 1. Send or receive cash from others that use the cash app, 2. Transfer money from my checking account to the cash app and buy stocks or bitcoin on the cash app. I did the latter. I downloaded the cash app to my phone around XXXX of XXXX. I would transfer money over from my XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) checking account to the cash app and then use the money on my cash app to buy shares of bitcoin. Its like a digital wallet. Throughout XXXX to XXXX, I accumulated around {$2000.00} in bitcoin. The value would fluctuate day to day. Everything was doing well until around XX/XX/XXXX, when I noticed that the bitcoin balance on my cash app was gone. At the same time, I noticed that there were all these unauthorized transactions taking place on the cash app. Money was being moved over from my XXXX checking account to the cash app and then shares of bitcoin were being purchased and immediately sold. The transfers were also reflected on my online BOA checking account. Cash app support only has a list of issues that I can pick from to get resolved, but none of these applied to my issue. They dont have a phone number to contact them and you can only email them. I emailed them with my issue and explained what was going on. A man named XXXX emailed me back and stated that he would be taking up my case but stated that I needed to email him the answer to certain questions that he stated in the email to me. I did this along with a detailed list of the unauthorized transactions on my cash app and emailed him back at the cash app support email site. Cash app support would email me back stating that this is an unmonitored email site. I was never able to get back to XXXX at cash app support. Included in this claim is a copy of this rejection email from cash app support, the email I tried to send to XXXX and the email XXXX originally sent me. Also included is detailed copy of the unauthorized bitcoin transactions and checking account transfers on my cash app as well as a copy of my online XXXX XXXX XXXX transactions showing the unauthorized transfers to my cash app. These are circled. This all took place from XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX. Even after XXXX reissued me a new debit card, it was still going on. They reissued me a second new debit card and I cancelled my checking account information on the cash app. Since then, no further transactions took place, but the damage was already done and around {$4500.00} was stolen from my bank checking account and all of my bitcoin was sold on the cash app. I was working with the bank to try to recover the money and I also filed a police report with my local XXXX XXXX, Florida police department. This is also included in this claim request. XXXX XXXX XXXX denied my claims to get the money back from the unauthorized transactions. Their reason was that the charges were authorized by me or someone else who has permission to use my XXXX XXXX XXXX card. This is clearly not true. I never authorize anyone to use my XXXX XXXX XXXX debit card, and I never made these transactions. My cash app was obviously hacked and the police detective and my bank both are unable to determine who was making these unauthorized transactions.

Saturday, XX/XX/2020 CashApp, which is a part of the Square Company allowed 4 unauthorized transactions to process on my account. Two were declined when I woke up to hear the transactions processing via my XXXX notification. I immediately reported the suspicious activity via CashApp support and disabled my debt card. At XXXX a {$50.00} transaction came through from a company referenced as XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. At XXXX a transaction from XXXX XXXX. XXXX was paid in the amount of {$93.00} At XXXX CashApp declines a charge of {$83.00} from XXXX XXXX XXXX . At XXXX I transferred the remaining funds {$82.00} after the fee ) to my credit union to prevent further u authorized charges. At XXXX CashApp declines another transaction from XXXX XXXX XXXX. XX/XX/2020 - CashApp notifies me to tell me I need to add more money into my account because I have a negative {$7.00} balance after they have allowed {$140.00} to be taken without my knowledge and authorization. I have the private security options enabled as they suggested however they still allowed these transactions to take money from my account. Now they are responding with the typical response tling me to contact the recipient and request a refund. When I told them that option was unacceptable because those companies that were allowed to take money from my account appear to not be valid businesses ( I tried to XXXX them ). I replied to their email asking them how am I supposed to request money from someone that was allowed to commit fraudulent withdrawals from my cash app account? Their response and lack of ability to communicate with a human directly is not bringing any resolutiin to this issue. The companies last response was ; Hi there, Cash App is unable to cancel or refund completed payments. If you would like to recover your funds, please send a request to the recipient. When I explained again this isnt an option and explained the charge was not authorized by me they came back with this response : Hi there, I do not have any new information to provide regarding this issue. Please review the information in our previous emails to understand how to move forward. The previous email is telling me to contact a recipient. For questions or concerns outside of this case, please reply back to me here. Thanks, Cash Support ref : XXXX : re I keep telling the rep in my emails that there is no recipient bcuz this is someone who they allowed to fraudulently pull cash from my account!!! On yesterday, XX/XX/2020 they told me there was nothing more they could do and said they were closing my case. This is the worst customer service experience from a company who wants you to trust them with your personal banking information but they are not willing to take accountability when they allow security breaches that allow fraud transactions to be executed without any company resolution. Why are they in a financial industry if they are unwilling to protect you when I followed THEIR SECURITY recommendations??? I need help resolving this because they refuse to talk to me or resolve the matter, yet they are asking me for more money to bring my account to a positive balance. I had a positive balance before they allowed my money to go through on a few fraudulent transactions.

Thu, XX/XX/2021 XXXX XXXX Cash Support ( XXXX ) I had notified Cash app that I could not access my account and where was my {$450.00} that was in my account and it was part of my government benefits. They acted as if they were so concerned sent me the same notice from other people like 6 times. I had answered all the questions and then some and still kept getting the same message over and over again. They sent me a response and accused me that it was my fault and therefore it was authorized. I am unable to access my original account and {$450.00} that was in accounted is no longer reflecting as XXXX allowed someone to access and assign account through fraud. 2. What is the date/time and amounts for the transactions that you believe are in error? 1. Any and all transactions dated XX/XX/2021 at or around XXXX XXXX. I can not access the account as CashApp allowed unknown to gain access and complete control of account with {$450.00} in said account. 3. Why do you believe the transactions were unauthorized? 1. No One was authorized or allowed access to my account. I can not specify on transactions as I can not access my original account. see attached : Cash Support ( XXXX ) Hello, my name is XXXX. Thank you for providing that information. We compared the transaction you brought to our attention with your account history. We determined that we received the transaction in question from a known device. This device had accessed your Cash App account prior to this event. Based on this information, we have determined that the transaction ( s ) in question was authorized, and as a result, we have denied your claim. This concludes our investigation into this claim. We recommend speaking with anyone who had access to your device at the time of the transaction. To further secure your account, we suggest the following security steps : Sign-In Code - Cash App will never request this information outside the app. Security Lock - Enable this setting to require your passcode or Touch ID to authorize every Cash payment. Personal Identification Number ( PIN ) - Protect it and keep it private. Do not write it on your card or store it with your card. - Use a PIN that is difficult to guess. - Avoid number sequences ( XXXX ), DOB, SSN, address, phone number, etc. Push Notifications - Enable for every transaction. Virtual Card - Hide your card details by clicking on your card. - Touch ID / Facial Recognition / Passcode - Enable enhanced login security measures on all devices. - Because all devices vary, you may need to check your device manual for more information.

COMPLAINT : SQUARE , INC On/About XX/XX/XXXX I opened an account on Square to accept credit card payments for our small lawn mowing company. A first transaction in the amount of {$1.00} test worked fine. On XX/XX/XXXX I processed a credit card in the amount of {$290.00} which was accepted and posted to my account. When I attempted to move that to my bank account it was missing. I received an email that they had impounded my funds due to an open balance on a separate company that was closed in XXXX. That company was an XXXX filed under the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. My new Square account was opened under a XXXX filed properly with XXXX XXXX. The XXXX had it's own XXXX and separate legal identity as a XXXX. That XXXX did have a dispute regarding a charge back due to a reported incidence of credit card fraud for which my XXXX was the victim sometime in XXXX. My XXXX is a XXXX XXXX under my personal XXXX and the two entities, legally separate, never existed at the same time. The XXXX was not filed until XXXX, two+ years after the end of the XXXX. Square is asserting that the two, legally separate XXXX entities are connected for their purposes of attaching funds that belong to the newer enterprise. I find no such provision in their own TOS. Square 's position is that because I was the owner of a corporation, I as an individual XXXX with a XXXX XXXX, am liable for the XXXX XXXX. That goes against the very principle and purpose of incorporating any business. I raised this defense in response to their email. Their reply was for me to provide them government documents to establish the separation of the entities. To that I provided by now-expired XXXX documents and annual report showing the XXXX as they requested. I also sent a copy of my filing for my XXXX. That of course, for security reasons, will not show a personal social security number. Both entities are separated not just legally but in time as well, by several years. Square found these insufficient but refused to state a specific document they would accept. They appear to have decided this in their favor at the outset and that no document I provide would ever be sufficient. I sent these documents at least three times and have another hard copies on the way to their HQ via US Mail. Should this type of aggression against an individual for debts of a corporation in which that person has an ownership interest would logically permit a private corporation ( Square Inc ) to take on the role of a court to pierce the corporate veil to collect from individual owners, debts it deems owed by those corporations. Shareholders would become targets for collection of debts payable by any corporation in which they owned stock. Since that time SQUARE did resolve the initial complaint IN MY FAVOR however now they state they wont release my funds for 90 days. They wont refund fees and wont pay interest which leads me to suspect they do this to aggregate funds from others to collect interest. I have copies of all emails related to this process. But I still have no access to my funds. There appears to be no means to contact anyone at SQUARE by telephone. A similar complaint was filed with the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX.

Cash APP - We had 4 transactions totally {$450.00} on XX/XX/XXXX that are 100 percent FRAUD against our account. We had a PIN Number for security purposes. We also had email notifications and tried to contact them many times via phone. No one would answer or if they did ... they said they would research and get back to us. No one called back. We didn't know that you could submit a fraud case on their app. They will tell you how sorry they are but since we are past the 60 day policy of reporting it, they can't help us. Well, we did report it. Magically, no record of it. Now when we email, we just get told they will research it but eventually an email says they can't help us even though we are asking them to waive the 60 day policy. The last telephone call resulted them in hanging up ... .we did NOT yell or use profanity. Here is one of emails sent and no answer to any of our questions : Thanks for your reply. We understand that it is past your policy of 60 days. We are asking that you waive that 60 day policy for the following reasons : 1 ) We would think you would want to find out who is using your servers illegally and stop them. If you have proof, I will gladly contact the police and file charges. 2 ) We were using a PIN number at the time of the incident ... XX/XX/XXXX. No, we don't write them down ... and yes it totally random generated number. I still think someone got the info off your server. 3 ) Where does the " XXXX XXXX '' come from in the transaction? It seems to me that it would be a good and fairly easy way to find out who this person is. 4 ) Had problems locating a number that worked to get to Cash App. I finally got through to someone that stepped me through entering it on my profile. 5 ) We could make up a bunch of other excuses but that the fact is that we let it drop by not following up. I was very busy on a BIG BIG PROJECT at work and I am getting older ... .I just forgot to follow up. Hmmmm, how come you guys don't follow up? XXXX and XXXX follow up with PAPER. You sent us an email like the one below but it went to SPAM and we didn't see it. I would think you would want to be known as the the most secure cash app in the world. We have always provided our telephone number to make it easier for you to call and ask questions. But, you have responded via email in a timely manner ... .this is good ... .now do better. Unfortunately, email went to spam and since this was first time submitting expected something in writing like others do. 6 ) What organization oversees your CASH APP? I suspect that FDIC doesn't. 7 ) I would like to know what Cash App does to secure my information. I had push notifications that is how I knew they happened when I woke up. I also had a PIN and passcode. So how is your security so lax, someone was able to hack. I would like you to move this up the ladder and see if your MGMT has some compassion and concerns for the above reasons. Have them call me if you wish ... XXX-XXX-XXXX. Sincerely, XXXXXXXX ================================== As we search and read articles on the internet, we find that there FRAUD rates are up over 300 percent ... ... .do n't know if this is true or just a guess. How can an organization in our BANKING industry still be in business?

On XX/XX/2020, around XXXX XXXX EST I became aware that someone unauthorized hacked my account by changing my XXXX information to $ XXXX and name to XXXX. On that same day, roughly within that time period of realizing the account was compromised - I requested a new card. I tried to contact customer service but it is automated ; no person is available to talk. The only way to request a new card is via the cash app ; it was reported stolen and asked for a new card due to suspicious activity. On XX/XX/2020 my job deposited my paycheck into my cashapp account in the amount of {$650.00} at XXXX XXXX EST. XX/XX/2020 at XXXX XXXX XXXX, {$650.00} was withdrawn from account to pay to XXXX XXXX XXXX. This was unauthorized payment, identity theft and fraud. I do not recognize this name/cashtag. On XX/XX/2020 at XXXX XXXX EST, cashapp customer service was notified about missing funds of {$650.00}. On XX/XX/2020 at XXXX XXXX EST, I reported identify theft to Federal Trade Commission. On XX/XX/2020, I have called customer service number at least 10 times to report the fraud and identify theft. It is an automated system and no person is available. I have tried multiple numbers listed on the consumer agreement form. All the numbers listed either do not work or is automated. No person is available to take compliant. This company is owned by Square and customer service information is the same. On XX/XX/2020 I used my laptop cash.app/support to send multiple online complaints reporting unauthorized payment {$650.00} to XXXX. I continued to send the online customer support complaints due to lack of communication from cashapp with an answer or follow up. The online forum used stated that user has reached the limit of tickets to contact them and was locked out of trying to contact them using same forum. In the phone app, I have attempted to report the refund using the directions explained in the automated services ; however, it redirects me to contact customer service and to send an email. When the contact email populates on the phone app, an error message will not allow it to be sent. The automated directions explain to use the phone app to report the fraud : open the app, go to transaction history, click on unauthorized payment, once open -click tab to refund money and request will be reviewed and someone will notify you in a few hours about refund request. I have tried multiple times, unsuccessfully. It does not allow you to complete the refund in the phone app - the page expires or does not send. Today, XX/XX/2020 I also contacted local police to report identity theft and fraud. And, currently I am reporting to the consumer financial protection bureau at XXXX XXXX EST. The company has shown no actions to refund my money that was taken by the unauthorized transaction. The company has no physical person to make complaint to about identity theft and theft. The company phone app is not user friendly to report information related to theft, identity theft or stolen information. As stated, the card was reported stolen just days prior to the unauthorized event. This morning, I contact my HR department where I work to report the incident and to stop any current/future transactions using this cashapp for direct deposits.

Dear Regulating Bodies, This is to report what we believe are malpractices of Square who, whilst handling large sums of money from businesses especially small business owners on a daily basis, do not provide live customer agents nor respond to emails in a timely manner. We have to resort to XXXX because our private efforts were in vain, and we have evidence of action from their end, albeit poorly, once public platforms were used. Square has charged our client 's credit card for {$5000.00} last XX/XX/XXXX and immediately kept their fees of almost {$250.00} - however, after deducting their fees, they decided to suspend our account as they say they find it unusual to have a gap between our last transaction with them and XX/XX/XXXX. We showed them proof that we also use other payment gateways provided by our website hosts plus understandably, cash transactions whenever possible. Additonally, we took a small break during the holidays to grieve for the death of our mom which we also told them about ( we can provide the death certificate if needed ). They have refused to release the suspension while keeping the money in the Square system. We have followed up on them almost everyday by email and phone calls to their hotline which seem to be fake given it really is just an automated line repeating their FAQs one can read online - and the one email response we got from them was exactly 2 minutes after I posted my first XXXX post tagging them, see other photo enclosed, which was XX/XX/XXXX ( which of course, is not a coincidence ). Until today, XX/XX/XXXX, they still have not released the funds nor reversed the transaction so we could at least use other options to charge our client as we deem it inconsiderate and irresponsible to charge our client 's card twice for the same transaction. WORST, THEY HAVE NOT RESPONDED TO OFFER RESOLUTION NOT EVEN TO ACKNOWLEDGE THE ISSUE, the one response they sent was to say for us to refer to some sections in their terms and policies essentially saying that they think the transaction is illegal. If they found it illegal, they should not have touched our client 's credit card in the first place and kept their fees? They should have investigated or called the credit card owner ( though we also sent Square proof of client 's approval of transaction ). It's XX/XX/XXXX now, we have already contacted our client 2 days ago to please file a complaint / reversal to XXXX XXXX, their credit card company and it is most likely that we have lost this client as they needed their items for XXXX XXXX. Not only for this transaction but repeat transactions to come. I am sure if you investigate further ( as we did ourselves ), many small business owners are in the same plight as us. It is appalling to not be able to know what happens to our hard earned money because greedy companies such as Square dodge with automated phones / no customer service at all, leaving the people using their system no option but to wait helplessly, and in our case, wait in vain - which as small business owners, we don't have such liberties of time and money being held. Thank you for your time. we have sent these same complaints on your websites and we look forward to your investigation and action.

This complaint is about the online money transfer service cash app. Months ago I had received an email from Cash App informing me that there are and have been unauthorized attempts to access my account and you were going to rightfully disable my account which I do agree with, I contacted them back which was through email because they claim to have a new phone number, I have asked numerous times for a phone number just to be told to go through the process on the app to initiate a problem, over and over, they eventually sent me a list of questions to answer regarding the device used to access my account, location, my personal information etc. to verify my identity, they a week later informed me they had closed the case because I had not contacted them in merely 3 days. I had to start the entire process over again, and weeks later I received an email informing me they have closed the case completely because the devise used to gain access to my account has been a device that has accessed my account in the past. I then proceeded to ask them politely if this device has accessed my account before this time in question, then why was I not notified then the first time? And if your telling me you are closing the investigation because the device in question has previously accessed my account, and you had no reason to warn me, then why did you warn me this time at all since it was ok the previous times? They then, just last week sent me an email stating that they will no longer pursue to file this unauthorized activity claim on my behalf because they do not have enough evidence, even after I provided them with the name, address, phone model, make and number, etc of the person that has just committed identity theft on me, as well has open 13 credit cards, bank and credit union checking accounts and commuted fraud to the point the IRS, treasury bureau, police department are pursuing pressing charges, the FBI contact me two weeks ago regarding similar matters, and even have an open investigation with you as well and have not been updated yet by you. They have all the information from there tracking software to know exactly which make and model phone was used, the I.P address used, the web browser used which narrows it down completely and without question to exactly of the identity of the person committing this federal crime as well as the exact address and location when this happened, as well as I gave them the information of the person in question so they could simply match it up and simply file a complaint, which they have now refused to do. I have saved every supporting document regarding this case Im trying with every breath to initiate with the same company that has allowed this crime to happen in the past from the same person, then they informed me of an unauthorized access to my account this last time only. They contacted me and now they are telling me the wont help me at all. I have every email, and document since this one and only time theyve warned me about unauthorized access to me account, I would like to share them with you. And they still refuse to give me a phone number so me or my attorney that Im evidently going to have to get can contact them directly. Please help!!

This is a long story but I am reaching out to any and every person I can find who that may possibly be able to assist me in escalating an ongoing issue that I have received virtually NO assistance with other than generic responses via email/social media support. With the company " Square/CashApp '' On XX/XX/2020 I realized someone stole my personal information, ID, my visa cards ( as well as money and checks ) and my second phone to create a fake account with this company CashApp as well as DRAIN one of my bank accounts making 47 unauthorized transactions through their application totaling over {$2900.00} over 2 weeks while I was out of town on business - the charges beginning XX/XX/XXXX ending XX/XX/XXXX. Upon this realization I immediately contacted my bank when I saw the numerous charges and my bank has explained to me that due to recent policy changes through their internal systems - they do not have the ability to, and can not reverse or chargeback transactions processed through CashApp/Square, and was advised that the company ( i.e. the merchant and POS processor CashApp/Square ) MUST be the ones to do the refund/reversal because this is a P2P service and it is it's own financial institution. This has been nothing but hindering to me in many ways. Literally I am in tears as I write because I have been going back and forth with their customer service team since XX/XX/XXXX being more than cooperative as well as providing all information I possess to escalate this quickly. I have been getting the run around. It feels like a game. Someone stole from me through this company - yet this company will not step in to assist and has not provided resolution nor reverse the charges? This is mind boggling and is unfair to me and shows that this company is definitely not adhering to their own TOS as well as not at all client-oriented. Frustrating as all of this is ; due to the lack of assistance in recovery/reversal of unauthorized charges - I have filed a complaint with the XXXX, and California DPFI, and now with CFPB as I am so exhausted in dealing with the automated responses as well as lack of communication and assistance in something that should be very simple to assist with that I have even made an attempt to reach out to the CEO all to no avail. I ask that you please refer to the email chain attached as PDFs as well as supporting documentation attached to understand the absurdity I have had in dealing with this company as well as still dealing with - and I would TRULY appreciate ANY and ALL assistance you can possibly provide in escalating this issue to the person who would be in charge of reversing unauthorized charges processed through this company, CashApp. Please I truly appreciate your understanding as well as willingness to address this issue and submit it to the department/person who can handle this and reach an immediate resolution as I am out over {$2900.00} and this company seems to be playing games and not willing to comply with their own TOS. You can reach me at any time via email or phone. I thank you in advance for your time, understanding, as well as your help in rectifying this as promptly as possible.

On XX/XX/XXXX I initiated to {$700.00} transfers into my cash app account in the past I've done this and there's never really been an issue however I needed to get the money to pay for a medication onto a certain card so I use cash app as a mediary to do that which they would have charged me and said they would charge me {$21.00} to cash out to the card or I can wait three days for it to be available for free on the both accounts that I use for this transaction my one finance account which I've done lots and lots of transfers into cash out and my XXXX account are verified accounts with my social security number. They also share the same home address that I have on file with cash app now on XX/XX/XXXX when I went to withdraw the money for a fee of {$21.00} I was using a new cell phone it's a phone I've had for a while but I added cash yet because I was having trouble with my tablet that I normally use I believe with the solar flare storm that's been going on it's causing issues for multiple people with connected devices regardless all the devices are registered and postpaid accounts with my name and my address the two banks that I used my name my address my social security number cash out Flags it understandably a new device as a new card and they say in 24 hours you'll regain access in fact it still says that today it says contact support and then a message comes up to says it 24 hours you'll regain access well after 24 hours I contact them and now they're language changes to 48 Hours. 72 hours not 10 days but now we're at 48 hours so as I approached 48 hours I contact again and now it's 72 hours to 10 days I'm getting upset and I tell him I think they're f****** idiots I have XXXX a XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and that important bill I needed to pay is my XXXX medicine that my insurance doesn't cover that allows me to function like a real human and not just laying in bed puking on myself I've explained this to them and I get the same scripted message and I'm told that I can't use naughty language meanwhile they're stealing my money. It is the XXXX now and they have yet to allow me to submit any documentation for my banks that would show that there my account there was nothing fraudulent all they've done is taken every opportunity to make it last longer tonight I went to the hospital because I needed my medicine and I can't afford it without my XXXX money. XXXX XXXX means there's no cure for what I'm dealing with so I don't care what you think about my language this is my quality of life and if you're going to take that away from me then cash apps little ears can handle a little Heat. It is absolutely inconceivable to me that they can go this long under my circumstance that they can go this long without asking or requiring me to provide documentation proving that these are my accounts this what they are doing is borderline fraudulent I now have emergency room bills that'll probably never pay cuz I'll be dead but that was my alternative to get the medication that I need that I should have been able to purchase 24-hours I can understand that but what they're doing they're playing games with people 's lives

XX/XX/2021 my cash card through cash app was fraudulently used without my permission or acknowledgement. I didnt find out about until the XX/XX/2021. Cash app never reached out to me to alert me of the unauthorized transactions. Even though it shows the used an old bank account debit card ending in XXXX that was linked to my cash app account a month ago. I was scammed out of {$2100.00} back in XX/XX/2021 by scammers posing as cash app technical support department with a fraudulent phone number. I reported the incident to cash app support by email and the responded quickly but ultimately did nothing or even bothered to follow up with me. My bank was abled to allow me to dispute the transactions with the card ending in XXXX XX/XX/2021 approximately. I cancelled that card ending in XXXX. The gave me a new card which I linked with me cash app account. Cash app recommended that I do some things to protect my account as well and I did everything to listed in email. So my account I assumed was protected from any further fraudulent transactions. I even got skeptical and I opened another checking account with XXXX XXXX and linked it with my cash app to prevent fraud. I used the Bitcoin feature several times without no problems. My tax refund in the amount of {$5600.00} was deposited on the card in late XX/XX/2021. I checked me account frequently and only used it a couple of times by taking out only {$200.00} to {$250.00} and then replaced it from my XXXX XXXX account to keep it at the origin balance of {$5600.00} or at least the difference of the {$200.00} or {$250.00}. In the second week of XXXX it shows in the activity with cash app when I withdrawing and all transactions. On XX/XX/2021 I was needing to use my Bitcoin through cash app that day and discovered {$2100.00} was missing out of my account. So I went into the activity tab and discovered that these unauthorized transactions failed but {$2100.00} the same amount that I was scammed for back in XXXX with the same card ending in XXXX was attempted. I informed cash app immediately by email. I also went to withdraw remaining funds of the cash card prepaid card at XXXX XXXX which declined. I called XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX that handles cash card transactions and made a complaint with them on XX/XX/2021. The informed that they will forward this to cash app and that they would get back with me on the following Monday. They actually reached out to me the next day saying that my account has been closed because I violated their terms. And that I could get the remaining funds out of my account by transferring to my XXXX XXXX account which I did. They also said that the didnt see the {$2100.00} that I was disputing which is ridiculous. In their activity tab if my cash card account didnt show where my money disappeared to, but I know the amount of {$2100.00} was taking without my authorization. I also had my stimulus money be deposited that same day XX/XX/2021 which was sent back due to their unprofessional poor customer skills and fraudulent practices. Please address this and if you need proof from me I have the snapshots from the errors they made.

For your convenience, I have included a summary of the resolution below : On XX/XX/XXXX, you reached out to Cash App about an account with a {$12.00} balance, explaining you were unable to add a bank, send funds, or Cash Out. This case did not have an update. On XX/XX/XXXX, you reached out to Cash App about a separate account with {$30.00} balance explaining you were unable to Cash Out. On XX/XX/XXXX a Cash App representative notified you that your Cash App account had been determined to be in violation of our Terms of Service and had been closed. You were advised that you could add a bank account, link a new debit/card, or re-link a previous card to Cash Out. On XX/XX/XXXX, your reached out regarding the account with {$30.00} in the balance, stating again that you were unable to Cash Out. A Cash App representative responded re-iterating the previous correspondence, stating your account was closed and the options around Cashing Out. I was unable to locate any other accounts with a balance or correspondence regarding them. I would like to re-affirm the information provided previously is correct. Your accounts have been closed as found in violation of our Terms of Service, and will not be reactivated. In order to Cash Out, you will need to link a bank account or bank-issued debit card which you have not used with Cash App before.

On XX/XX/XXXX, a guy named XXXX called from a company called XXXX XXXX because I had expressed interest in his mentoring program. XXXX sent me something to sign electronically while he had me on the phone. I didn't get a chance to read it and they never sent me a copy. I was under the impression, the money he charged me for in the amount of {$870.00} was for marketing mentoring from XXXX XXXX. And it was the 1st payment of 4 payments they were going to withdraw from my account in 30-day increments to equal {$3500.00} in order to help me start an online business. As soon as I gave them my cash app debit card number, they sent me an email from a guy named XXXX to join a zoom meeting with him in about an hour. I joined and they recorded it. XXXX 's email was from another company called XXXX and it looks fraudulent now that I looked it up. I thought I was going to be receiving help from XXXX XXXX. The guy named XXXX spoke with a very heavy foreign accent and gave me his email : XXXX to contact him with questions on starting my own business. And, I could not understand his accent. In the meeting, I asked for a refund because I felt this wasn't what I signed up for. He told me to send an email to XXXX. I have sent several emails. They refuse to give me a refund. I reported my card stolen to Cash App and it has been canceled so they won't charge me anymore. The support at XXXX XXXX told me they are now going to keep my money for a course. I told them I would take a look at it. I went through the first few modules and there was another guy named XXXX who was training and also does live training on Thursday who also has a very heavy foreign accent. And, I can not understand what he is saying. The course is useless to me. I have begged them to give me a refund. I have no use for the training I can not understand in a foreign accent. This is not what I expected. I have filed a dispute with the Cash app. After I go through the process and tell them what happened, they respond with the same email asking me to file a dispute. they have done this many many many times. They always send me an email telling me the steps to file a dispute which I have already done a whole bunch of times. They do mention that they will send a link to something they call an Information Retrieval Form. But they have never sent that link. In the email, they mention a toll-free number I can call to get help. The number goes to voice mail saying they have no one to answer the lines and help. I sent several emails with the name of the merchant, the amount of the transaction, the date it was made, and the reason for the dispute. Then they always tell me if I need help, I have to Go through the app and contact support. I have done that many many many many times. And every time, they say they have no information and I need to follow the steps to file a dispute. Today is XX/XX/2022, and I have been going through this ever since XX/XX/2022, with no help from anyone at all. I want a chargeback for the {$870.00} they took from me for services I never received and a course I do not want because it is useless to me.

On XX/XX/XXXX, I initiated a payment to a friend using the cashapp system in the amount of {$3000.00}. Minutes later, we decided to use a check instead, so, my friend refunded the {$3000.00} back to me using the same app. The app shows the refund was processed and returned to my bank card instead of the cashapp e-wallet. The problem is the funds were never credited to my bank card account either. On XX/XX/XXXX, I initiated my first support request with cashapp. XXXX with Cashapp support responded XX/XX/XXXX by email, asking me to dispute it with my bank. On XX/XX/XXXX cashapp closed my case due to lack of communication. So, on XX/XX/XXXX I contacted my bank ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ) to initiate a dispute through them. My bank opened a dispute but quickly closed it without further investigation or resolution because the source was cashapp. My bank refused to process a dispute through visa and told me to process my dispute through cashapp. XX/XX/XXXX I reinitiated my dispute with cashapp and began including my bank in the emails so that both cashapp and my bank could see that neither are taking steps to resolve my missing funds. Rather both cashapp and XXXX XXXX XXXX keep pointing the finger at each other and telling me to resolve this with the other entity. From that point on, XXXX XXXX XXXX assigned me one point of contact, XXXX. She has at least attempted to resolve this but her hands are tied because of XXXX XXXX XXXX policies involving disputes with internet transfers using e-wallet services. My complaint with XXXX XXXX XXXX has to do with their policy to take no action to dispute if an e-wallet service is involved. This policy needs to be looked at and corrected. A dispute should be initiated with VISA no matter what if a consumer is complaining. Cashapp on the other hand has grossly mishandled my dispute requests. No single point of contact has been assigned. I've had 5 different contacts with cashapp. XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX and XXXX. Each one sends one form letter email that repeats the same information of how they're taking over for the previous representative. They've reviewed my request, confirmed with Visa that my funds were returned and that I should dispute with my bank. Each time I respond back telling them my bank representative has been added to the email and I tell them my bank can not move further with their dispute. I ask for the visa proof each representative has cited. However, instead of providing the proof or escalating further, I then get another form reply email from a new cashapp representative that says the same thing the last representative wrote. It's like cashapp has hired robots that can't think or communicate. The only thing they can do is send the same email over and over and over and over and over again. Meanwhile my money is still in limbo. Neither cashapp nor XXXX XXXX XXXX is able refund it. Please help. I've copied this in order to make 2 identical complaints. One for Cashapp and one for XXXX XXXX XXXX. If you're reading this. Please process it under the appropriate company I've filed the complaint against.

On Wednesday XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX XXXX I had some transaction happen in my cash app account that sent money to people by accident. I do not know how it happened but I looked at my phone and I seen transactions and tried to request a refund. One of the transactions declined, one I was able to have refunded and the other is just sitting there. I contact Cash App telephone support and because the guy could not find my account he wanted to close the case. I asked him if I could speak to a manager or supervisor he became very rude and hung up on me. I emailed customer support and I was told " After reviewing your account, I can confirm that a payment for {$99.00} on XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX XXXX CST was sent to $ XXXX. They claimed to have reviewed my account and they determined the transaction valid. I have spent the last two weeks contacting customer support but no one will answer my questions. If they reviewed my account they would have seen that I have never sent or received money from $ XXXX. Below is my response to Cash App no one have made any attempt to answer my questions or tell me what happens to the money when it is not received. Is there a way I can speak to a top manager or the owner. It should be very clear that this transaction was done in error it was a mistake and no one in your support dept wants to help me fix a mistake. Again if you reviewed the account you will see that I requested a refund shortly after the transaction was made. If you reviewed you will see that there was two other transactions done at the same time that were also done in error. Your support did not give me a way to go forward to get my money refunded. You gave me some XXXX security measures which I do not need because base on this experience cash app is not what I need to use if the so called support won't help you fix an error. So since the {$99.00} has not been received by the person it was sent to what happens to it. Or does it just sit in cash app and you guys keep my money instead of ending back to me. I am sure there is a way that we can come to a peaceful resolution other than you telling me there is nothing you can do. Then that begs these questions to answer 1. Why does the customer service on the phone do not want you to talk to a supervisor or a manager? I tried and got hung up on. 2. Why is it that I can not get a phone call to resolve something that was clearly a mistake? 3. Since the money have not been claimed what happens to it? 4. When a customer tells you the transaction was done from their phone by accident or error how do you tell them that the transaction was authorized? 5. Are you trying to keep my money? 6. Where does the money go if it has not been received? 7. Who is the owner of cash app? How do I contact this person. 8. how can I get in touch with the following people XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX I have sent emails to them all this week and no one has made any effort to respond. Also according to their terms of agreement if the money is not claimed in 15 days the money would be refunded. It has been 15 days.

On XX/XX/XXXX I processed a payment to XXXX using the CASHAPP prepaid debit card and subsequent available funds in my CASHAPP account. On XX/XX/XXXX I was advised by XXXX that the reservation I attempted to make was no longer available and the hold placed on the funds for said reservation would be released. On XX/XX/XXXX I attempted to contact CASHAPP to have the amount of {$480.00} released back to me and provided them the case ID from XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX I received correspondence from XXXX advising that they could not use the case ID as a means to release the payment but if I was able to secure an email from XXXX stating the payment was to be released, they would do so immediately. On XX/XX/XXXX, after spending a few hours on the phone I was able to secure said email from XXXX and sent it over to XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX I received an email from XXXX stating that they could not see the transaction and that I needed to screenshot it from my phone for them to see the dollar amount. On XX/XX/XXXX I responded with the screenshot requested showing the amount. On XX/XX/XXXX I received a response from XXXX stating that they could not use the information I provided to affect the refund and that any issues should be referred to XXXX. I responded pointing out the obvious fact that the information provided was the exact information they stated they needed and at no time did they claim that any of the provided documents ( upon receipt ) would not suffice. Furthermore, despite articulations that the information would not suffice they gave no remedies or instructions on what would suffice. They essentially decided to simply ignore the documentation provided ( that they requested ) and move to deny providing the refund. At this point, any financial vehicle with unregulated access to funds should be held accountable when it shows to be operating in poor faith. The question is not only why they do not affect this refund but ; 1 ) where is the money 2 ) who is gaining interests on the capital 3 ) is this money being reported as income to the IRS? 4 ) where is this money being held? 5 ) who enforces standards against predatory financial instruments 6 ) if I do not receive my refund, is that considered a loss and as such can I seek to strike that as income from my income taxes? 7 ) when this type of behavior causes financial hardships, is CASHAPP responsible for any subsequent financial harm caused by their poor stewardship. 9 ) should business such as this be allowed to operate or have access to standardize institutions when this type of behavior in large scale could cause widespread economic harm? These are questions that should be asked by not only regulatory agencies but lawmakers as well. In this time of economic hardships, they Gov us a fiduciary responsibility to ensure these type of operations are not allowed to continue and remained unchecked. For me, it was only {$490.00}. For the less fortunate or those who can not access traditional banking options, it could be their lifes savings.

On XX/XX/2021 I received at my home address via XXXX Mail an envelope containing a VISA Debit Card with embedded chip. The rear ( magnetic stripe side ) of the card is imprinted with my name, an account number, an expiration date, and a CVV. The front bears a code similar to " $ A # # # A ''. The card carrier is printed, " Activate your card. Scan code in Cash App. '' I did not request a card. I am not a customer of the companies involved. I believe the card was fraudulently requested and issued without proper verification. I am trying to contact the issuing Cash App organization and their parent/affiliate Square, Inc. to no avail. There is not a XXXX fraud telephone number advertised in the mailing, on the card or on the websites. Victims are referred to communication tools contained within the Cash App software which requires a user account to access. I am not a user, nor do I wish to become one. I do not want to install software or provide personal details to create an account. I found a web-form at Square which permitted me to send a message on XX/XX/XXXX. I requested cancellation of the fraudulently generated card. I received an emailed response on XX/XX/2021. The email directed me to the website for Cash App. On XX/XX/XXXX, I found a phone number listed on the Cash App website. I called the number that evening. A recording said they were closed and to call back when they were open. No business hours are listed on the website. On XX/XX/XXXX, I called again. After several interactions internal to their automated call management system, I was directed to request a callback if I wanted help. I touched the designated phone key and was assured of a callback. Hours later, I received a callback, but I missed the call. In a voice message, " XXXX '' said I could call back XXXX to the only advertised number ). I called the number again, interacted with the system and was disconnected by the system. I called back, interacted with the system, and was directed to request a callback if I wanted help. I touched the designated phone key and was assured of a callback. At this moment XXXX XX/XX/XXXX, evening ), I am still waiting for a callback from someone who might take my report of an unsolicited card issue. There are several problems evident in the way this ( these XXXX companies do business. A full investigation should be conducted and regulatory remedies applied. I suspect I am not the only consumer adversely effected by these problems. There may be an identifiable class of consumer victims. In addition to Cash App and Square, VISA and XXXX XXXX are involved in this incident, and they should be made aware of the problems. P.S. On XX/XX/2021, I filed an initial fraud alert request with XXXX. The alert was confirmed by XXXX on the same day as my initial contact. Yay, XXXX! P.P.S. The CFPB web-form requires input to the " Billing Address '' section, but this victim has no way of knowing what billing address is associated with this fraudulently-issued, unsolicited card.

I am a XXXX XXXX and have been doing XXXX work for 25 years. I've never run into a situation like this before but long story short, I was hired to do a XXXX XXXX job for approximately {$4500.00}. I was paid {$4000.00} as a down payment with the transaction being processed through square. XXXX : XXXX Receipt Number : # XXXX The transaction was successfully processed, at which point two days later the funds were auto transferred to my checking account in the amount of {$3800.00} Square took out a processing fee of {$140.00} This part is normal and expected, however, after funds were secured, the customer attempted to do a chargeback fraud scheme against these funds and I declined to participate in this scam, instead withholding the money this person paid as a down payment on the site as payment for services rendered since I had done what I was hired to do - build a website. This person then disputed the charges, saying they did not recognize the charge. No matter how I look at it, at this point, the charge was fraudulent. Either the cardholder is trying to do a chargeback scheme, or someone got someone else 's credit card number and is trying to pull this stunt. Either way it's obviously fraud at this point. It was decided in the cardholders favor to revert the funds back to their account. Square withdrew {$4000.00} from my account in response to this dispute and subsequently handed these funds over to the credit card bank. However, Square did not revert the service fee charged against this transaction. It has been my experience that this is NOT normal. For example, XXXX will revert service fees in cases like this. Therefore, Square is knowingly participating in collecting funds off fraudulent transactions and making the merchant ( me, in this case ), pay the service fee on behalf of Square, so Square can still pocket the fraudulent funds they made off the service fee. In other words, I received a {$4000.00} payment. {$3800.00} was deposited into my account, so Square pocketed {$140.00} as a service fee. Now, both Square and I have money from a fraudulent charge. Square made me pay {$4000.00} back on that fraudulent charge, and they still kept the {$140.00} off the fraud charge, making me pay that extra {$140.00} on their behalf so they can keep a portion of the funds received from a fraudulent charge. So now, I've paid back the money from the fraud charges so I no longer have fraudulent money. However, Square still has {$140.00} from this fraudulent transaction, so they are knowingly keeping fraud money and making the victim of this fraud ( me ) pay the {$140.00} of fraud money back on their behalf. Is it even legal for a company to knowingly keep funds and profit from a fraudulent charge? Because this is exactly what they are doing. The {$140.00} of the fraud money they're still pocketing, and making me pay back that money on their behalf so they can keep their part of the fraud money. That seems really shady and illegal to me.

XXXX XXXX Fraud Team, I am reporting a case of fraud and would like to chargeback several charges all to the same individual ( XXXX XXXX ) that I paid in installments via my XXXX checking account. Transactions include installment 1 ( {$750.00} via XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX ), installment 2 ( {$750.00} XX/XX/XXXX via cashapp ), installment 3 ( {$750.00} XX/XX/XXXX via cashapp ), and installment 4 ( {$750.00} XX/XX/XXXX via cashapp ). All payments went toward the purchase of two identical pieces of property XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( devices that mine the cryptocurrency called XXXX ). The seller assured me that both units were brand new and had never been used before. When I received both units, the XXXX app ( app one uses to power on such devices ) confirmed that both units had not only been used before ( see screen shot included in report ), but belonged to another users wallet. There is no changing this, it is a locked wallet belonging to someone else. This means that any mining activity would be forwarded to another individual, and not me as the buyer. This makes both devices completely and utterly worthless to anyone, including me. The seller knowingly sold me someone elses property that did not belong to him. This is illegal and 100 % fraudulent and 100 % a scam. I would like to chargeback these payment installments to get my money back for the worthless and counterfeit machines illegally sold to me. I would like to submit additional evidence in my financial fraud / crime case with XXXX and Cash App. For reference the case numbers are below : Case # XXXX XXXX Case # XXXX Cash App I have 100 % proof that the seller in this case sold me two stolen XXXX XXXX devices that are not to be resold under any circumstances. As previously shared with you, the seller agreed to sell me two brand new hot spot devices. When I received them, both units were registered to another entities XXXX wallet ( not new at all, and completely worthless ). One of the units was registered to XXXX XXXX XXXX and the other unit was registered to XXXX XXXX XXXX. I am able to see these names upon setting up the XXXX units in the XXXX app, when I attempt to set up the units, it shows me the units already have an owner making the units worthless to me. See screen shots attached with both of these names shown for proof. I reached out to the head of XXXX, a XXXX XXXX XXXX company, and they confirmed that both of these units belonged to the company and that it was illegal for the seller to have sold these to me. The seller sold me property that he claimed to be his own when in reality it was the property of XXXX. This is financial fraud and a scam. These charges I paid to the recipient as part of this case need to be reversed immediately please. Any individual would be able to look at this case and come to the same conclusion : financial fraud. Please see screen shots attached for proof directly from XXXX about what I shared above. Thank you, XXXX XXXX

XX/XX/2020 was my last documented " completed '' and successful transaction with cash app. A short time after, I discovered my account was closed. An email was sent to XXXX XXXX XXXX. I received the attached response stating that I have violated section 4 and 5 within the terms and agreement/policy.

On XX/XX/21 I received an unsolicited Square Business Debit card in the mail. The card has my name on it. It was sent to my address. I do not have a Square account and have never ever dealt with Square for any reason. There was no other information included other than an instruction to " Activate your card in the Balance section of your Square app or web Dashboard ''. I looked up the Square website to compare the contact info on the card with the info on the site, however there is no contact info on the card except for a web address. There is also no phone number to be found at all on the Square site. I finally found the number on another site called " XXXX XXXX ''. I called and got Square Customer service and spoke with someone named XXXX. I explained to XXXX that I received a Square Business Debit Card unsolicited and that I was calling to find out what is going on. He asked me for my name and email address. I gave him my name but refused to give my email address. He said he could not look up " my account '' without the email address. It told him that I do not have an account. I am not a Square customer. I am simply trying to find out why your company sent me this debit card that I did not request. '' He asked for my date of birth. I again refused. He said he could not help me if I wouldn't give him any info to look up anything. I offered to give him the information on the card that his company sent to me, he said he couldn't look up anything using that info??? He then transferred me to another customer service group who he said may be able to do that. I spoke with XXXX who asked me for the same info. I repeated my response to him and asked why he needed any of my personal info and offered the info on the card that his company sent to me. He said he could not do anything without my name and email address. I reluctantly relented and gave him my email addresses. He said he could not find an account under either which is not surprising since again, I did not request this card so why would they have my email address??? I did not get an answer to that question. XXXX put me on hold 3x stating he needed to look into something. He finally came back and said he couldn't help me because he could not pull up my account. I told him again, " I do not have an account, I was sent this card out of the blue and I am trying to figure out what this is about ''. He put me on hold again and came back and asked for the last 4 digits on the card. I gave it to him. He then said that he would escalate the matter and that I'd receive a response via email by Monday ( today ). I have not heard anything from them. This is completely unacceptable to me. They should be able to look that up without any info from me other than what was on that card since they sent me the card in the first place. This is a very sketchy, shady situation and I do not appreciate it at all. I received zero answers from Square. I need answers.

Long story short, Cashapp/Square is trying to keep my money. My account was hacked and someone bought bitcoin with my funds and removed money from my account. Cashapp did an investigation which I patiently waited on and after the investigation gave me a one time credit for the money that was taken {$920.00}. I heard the money hit but I could not see it. Then Cashapp told me to create a new account to keep the hackers away from my account and to be able to access my funds from the old account that was refunded. I did all that and now they're telling me they can't place my money from my old account into my new one. I've given every piece of information they asked to prove it's me and that was my account. I've gone as far as take pics of the front and back of my driver 's license. Cashapp 's excuse is that they're protecting my old account by keeping my money. How is keeping my money protecting my account? Sounds more like cashapp is lining their pockets with other peoples money. The Cashapp support is useless, they all saying the same foolishness. I need a supervisor or manager who can get me my money, someone from corporate if need be. Keeping my money is not protecting me none. Times hard out here and I can't just afford to have Cashapp keep my money. I can send proof of my social ending in XXXX and everything to prove I'm me and it was my account that was hacked. I've included a pic of the front and back of my driver 's license. I need my money, I heard the ching sound the app makes when the money was 1st deposited so why I can't get my money is beyond me. I'm not going to stop writing cashapp or someone until I get my money. This is a copy of the letter Cashapp sent me saying they're keeping my money in order to protect me below. On Sunday, XX/XX/2021, XXXX XX/XX/XXXXEST, Cash Support XXXX wrote : Hi XXXX , XXXX here with Cash App Support. I'll continue over your case from here.

This complaint is against Square , Inc., having its offices at XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX ; XXXX XXXX, CA XXXX and its affiliated unit, styled as Cash App. Square has stolen {$3000.00} from me and has never offered a clear explanation Despite my and the payees repeated attempts over the past six months to explain the problem and achieve resolution. Funds in the amount of {$3.00}, 000.00 were transferred from my personal bank account to my Square, Inc. account, but never received into the accounts of the designated payee. Square has ignored us and has stated, through innumerable emails, that they can do nothing. The substantial amount of this theft by Cash App is causing extreme financial distress for our family. On XX/XX/2020 I used CashApp XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX to transfer {$3000.00} to XXXX XXXX ( payee ) for expenses he had incurred to repair his mothers dwelling. The funds were removed on XX/XX/2020 from my personal bank checking account, but were never received into the account of the payee [ $ XXXX ]. Payee had, prior to XX/XX/XXXX, closed that account and had subsequently opened a new account [ $ XXXX ]. On XX/XX/2020 I requested the funds be returned to me ; Cash App has responded that such would be impossible, stating finally on XX/XX/XXXX : After checking your account, I can see the {$3000.00} paid to $ XXXX on XX/XX/2020 at XXXX XXXX XXXX has been completed, Cash App is unable to cancel or refund completed payments. If you would like to recover your funds, please have the recipient reach out to us. During this ordeal, both I and the payee have tried many times to get this resolved with Cash Apps customer service agents and to either have the {$3000.00} returned to the Payer or sent to the Payee. We have timely submitted every piece of information they have required in order to verify the account. These are excerpts from emails sent to the Payee ( full email messages attached to this complaint ) showing Cash Apps inability to adequately explain how the {$3000.00} could be recovered : XX/XX/2020 : I know that not being able to access the funds involved is inconvenient and can be a stressful situation. You may be able to contact your local law enforcement., and file a report. Cash App will fully cooperate in the investigation. I do not have any new information to provide regarding this issue. XX/XX/2020 : After taking a look into your account, I am able tpo see that your request to access to the account was not approved. For security reasons, we can not reverse this decision ad are unable to provide additional details. XX/XX/2020 : Were unable to verify the information youve provided to merge these accounts together. Moving forward, you will not be able to access your previous account.

My Name is XXXX XXXX and I have been using Square ( Cash App ) for almost 4 years. I have my XXXX XXXX debit card and account number linked to this app. I have never had any problems using this money transfer app. I send my roommate ( XXXX XXXX ) my portion of our house bill via Cash App every month. However, On XX/XX/2019 around XXXX, I tried transferring my portion of our bills ( {$380.00} ) to XXXX XXXX via Cash App. I opened my Cash App account, l went to recent activity, I selected XXXX XXXX name, which was on top my recent activity list, and I sent the money. He accepted it right away ; He replied with a thumb up. On the following day, while I was at work, my roommate, XXXX XXXX called me and asked for my portion of the bill. I told him that I had sent the money yesterday via Cash App, I told him that he even replied with a thumb up. He said, " let me check, I don't think I received any money or replied to you yesterday. After checking his Cash App account, he said to me that he did not receive the money. I opened my Cash App account and checked the transfer. I realized that there were two XXXX XXXX accounts. I knew right away that I was scammed because I have only been sending money to one XXXX Account. I realized that someone created a fake account using my roommates information. The Scammer also appeared on my recent activity list, which I could not understand. I was confused and wondering how could his be possible. So, I contacted my bank, XXXX XXXX right after I got off the phone with my roommate and told them not make payment to the transfer. I explained to them the whole problem. The Fraud Specialist told me that they couldnt stop the payments or investigate the matter. I would have to contact Cash App and tell them to initial a dispute. I emailed Cash App ( Cash Support ) and told them everything. They told me that they are Cash App is unable to initiate disputes with a customers bank on their behalf. After making several phones calls to XXXX Fraud department and exchanged many messages with Cash App support group, both companies made it clear that they were not going to investigate my case. So, I did XXXX all weekend ( XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ) to pay my portion of the bill. I made XXXX and I added other money that I had in my XXXX account. I went to my Cash app account, this time I was more careful, selected the right XXXX XXXX account, I transferred {$380.00} to his account. I was confident that this time he would get the money. Also, I had transferred {$20.00} to XXXX XXXX via Cash App on XX/XX/XXXX and it was successful. Unfortunately, the money went to the scammer. This was more confusing, because I selected the right account. I contacted XXXX Fraud right away and Cash Support. Both said they could not help. I lose a total of {$770.00} ( {$380.00} * 2 ). I will close both accounts as soon as I get my money back.

I have been the victim of ongoing identity theft and people have tried opening numerous different accounts at different places using my personal information. After it happen the first time ( 5+ years ago ), I thankfully froze my credit and put a PIN on my IRS file. People have once again started using my information earlier this year to file a fraudulent employment claim, open several checking accounts and debit cards, a brokerage account, and a failed attempt to open a credit card. For the most part, I have been able to call the financial institution in question to get the fraudulent accounts closed relatively easily and in a fairly short amount of time and have received some sort of confirmation of account closure. The exception is CashApp by Square. Back in late XXXX, they mailed a fraudulently opened Visa debit card to a former address of mine ( thankfully it is my mother 's house ) that was issued under my maiden name. Immediately upon opening it upon the my next visit to my mother 's house on Friday, XX/XX/XXXX, I called CashApp to get the fraudulent account closed. It was very difficult to find any sort of phone number by which to reach them, but found a number on the sponsoring bank 's website ( XXXX XXXX ). Surprisingly, I got through fairly quickly and spoke to someone. However, he said I could not speak to a fraud team directly and he could not confirm whether there had been any activity on the account even if I provided him the card number. That seemed unfair to me, but he said he would send me an email where I could send the details and I would get a secure link to share the card details. I provided my email address and promptly receive a message from emailsupport@cash.app. However, I never heard anything else after that. I provided the requested summary of the situation via reply email the following day ( and the card data via the secure link ) and asked for written confirmation of the account being closed, confirmation of any activity on it, and ask that they flag their system so that no additional accounts could be opened with my name or personal information. Despite follow up emails to them, I never received a reply. Then, on XX/XX/XXXX, a second fraudulent card arrived at my mother 's house in my name. I spent all day today trying to call them back, to no avail. I called 17 different times between XXXX and XXXX XXXX today and received various different recordings that ultimately cut me off saying that no one was available to speak to me. Sometimes the recordings cited high call volumes, sometimes they referred me to the mobile app which I obviously do not have as I am not a customer, other times it just cut me off. It is unacceptable and unfair that there is not an easily accessible phone number for consumers to call to resolve issues of identify theft being perpetrated through their company.

These charges were did NOT authorized and I reported the fraudulent activity to Cash App on XX/XX/2021. I reported the fraudulent activity to XXXX on XX/XX/2021 as well. I have alerts set up on my XXXX account and was alerted by text and email on XX/XX/2021 about these 2 transactions. Since I did not authorize these transactions, I immediately opened a fraud claim. You will see that these 2 transactions were taken with 2 minutes ( XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX ) of each other until I did not have enough funds to process another transaction. After I saw that Cash App did not properly investigate my claim, I unlinked my account and deleted Cash App from my phone. I noticed in the information provided by Cash App through my complaint with XXXX XXXX XXXX, the IP address in their documents does NOT match the IP address for my cell phone. IP address for my cell phone is XXXX. IP address provided in their documents is IP XXXX. Cash App should have performed their due diligence to find out who the IP address belongs to that initiated the transactions because then they would know transactions were NOT initiated from my cell phone and would not have reported to XXXX that I authorized the transactions because I DID NOT AUTHORIZE THESE TRANSACTIONS. I did not authorize the payment through the cash app of {$500.00}. I do not know the person who the money was sent to. I do not know how the money was sent from my cash app account to this person. I contacted cash app to make them aware of the fraudulent activity the day it happened. I sent them screenshots showing the two {$250.00} transactions were not part of my completed history and the person was not in my activity. Cash App did NOTHING to investigate my claims based on the information I provided them. Cash App has several lawsuits because of this type of fraudulent activity. Cash App did not investigate my claim in accordance with the Electronic Funds Protection Act after I reported the fraud. If they did, they would know the IP address that initiated the transfer does not belong to my phone and even the the email address of the person who received funds seems suspect, XXXX. Cash App XXXX is not taking my fraud case seriously. I have also raised a financial crimes division of the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, case # XXXX. XXXX issued me a temporary credit of {$500.00} for these fraudulent claims until claim could be investigated. Based on the data provided by Cash App/Square, XXXX reversed the temporary credit which caused my account to go into overdraft because Cash App claimed I authorized the transactions even after I sent Cash App evidence I DID NOT authorize the fraudulent transactions. If Cash App would have followed the guidelines of the Electronic Funds Protection Act, Cash App would know the fraudulent activity was not initiated from my device ( cell phone ).

This complaint involves two debit card companies, those being Cash App and XXXX, respectively. The reason there are two companies is because, on the surface, it might appear that the host company, [ Cash App ], says that they transferred my funds to XXXX Debit at my instructions, is being truthful, yet XXXX claims to not have received the funds, only a notification that such funds was forthcoming from Cash App. As shown in the attached Cash App Transaction Record, I transferred all funds in the Cash App Account in the amount of {$14000.00} to XXXX and Cash App then closed the account. Since that time, my {$14000.00} is missing and because Cash App was the host institution, they have the responsibility to insure that the funds were in fact deposited with XXXX as instructed by myself. They insist that they have no further responsibility in this issue because the attached document does in fact say that Cash App in fact cashed my account out in the amount stated above and forwarded/transferred to " XXXX ''. However, initially XXXX told me that it would take three days for the funds to become available, identifying the amount without prodding from myself. Three days later, the funds did not show on my XXXX Account. Several conversations were held with XXXX representatives regarding this matter with XXXX maintaining that it does not have the funds [ {$14000.00} ]. It is a strange situation because the record does APPEAR that Cash App did in fact, at my direction, transfer the mentioned funds. This evidentiary fact does not change Cash App 's responsibility to see to it, or help facilitate a customer 's receipt of funds demanded in that customer 's account. Further, because " XXXX '' was able to identify the amount transferred to XXXX, gives this writer to believe something is amiss between these two companies, and I should not have to prove, with files which are held by the would be fraudsters, which Debit Card Company is guilty of either neglect, or purposeful theft of my {$14000.00}. I believe that either way, from a legal perspective or from a decency perspectives, both companies must assist in finding funds now taken from me and has simply vanished. Lastly, both companies are declining to assist in the locating of my funds while I suffer because I don't have access to my own funds, which as one might expect, mostly would be earmarked for bills of varying kind. This is a substantial amount of money to permit any company to simply vanish my or anyone else 's funds. I have filed a dispute with " XXXX '' which has yet to be answered, and have spoken with agents of XXXX. No physical complaint have been filed with Cash App since the transaction page of my account with Cash App show that the funds were " Cashed out '' after all funds were transferred to XXXX.

On the morning of XX/XX/21 @ app. XXXX. I called cash app customer service number that was listed on line regarding an issue. I called seeking help, however I got taken advantage of. I called because I sent my son XXXX $ via cash app and I asked him dd he receive it, he said no. So my first instinct was to call customer the service number. There is no way to reach out to any customer service representative through the app. There isn't a email connected to the company or a number connected neither, which led me to XXXX the number online. I called the number posted online, someone picked up, I explained to them what happened, then then told me that they would help me. They asked my name and the general information someone would ask to verify an account. They told me they see the issue and that I also needed to download an app called XXXX XXXX to help navigate me properly through the app. ( it allowed them to see my screen on my phone ) we went to customer support an other credible places in the app and then they told my to click on XXXX. and to click on the option of XXXX XXXX I wasn't sure what exactly what was going on because i'm not familiar with XXXX. so not only was I still out of the XXXX, now i'm being scammed out XXXX more dollars. at this point i'm getting upset because i'm noticing money being taken from my linked bank account. they were able to change the account number to my cash appp account from there end. I was in the process of hanging up, they told me that the money that was taken from my account would be returned along with the original amount of XXXX, XXXX if they can have access to my sons account. They got on the phone with my son my son verified his account as well they accessed his account as well and that's when they were able to take everything. They also scanned his I.D . and his face. ( This didn't alarm me at the time because these are things you have to do to verify your identity when you set up a cash app account. ) I then got upset and told them to give me my money or I was done. at this time I knew something wasn't right. They kept telling me that they were having technical issues that's why were having problems, and was having issues reversing the money. I told them that I have a cash app debit card if that would help that they could send it to. They said I would have to only go to a XXXX ATM to receive my money, and that I will receive my money in full, cash, so my son and I drove to a XXXX machine on XXXX XXXX XXXX ( in a gas station. ) They gave us a code to put in and we also had to add XXXX additional dollars in order to active the XXXX machine.Of course it didn't work. I finally hung up and reported it to my bank and went to the police station shortly after that. And the police confirmed I was a victim of a crime.

I have come to the conclusion that Cashapp is both negligent in their security and allowing my financial information to be sold and distributed to scammers. Not only is CashApp the only financial account that has been repeatedly been compromised, I have yet to get a clear answer as to why and how the debit card they issued and hasnt even been delivered to my address yet is being defrauded. I had noticed that multiple transactions were attempting to go through from obviously fraudulent sources ( ex : {$320.00} from a XXXX in XXXX Florida, {$30.00} from an entity titled XXXX XXXX ). For reference, I have never been to Florida and have lived in XXXX, California for the past year. I officially changed all my bank sign in information, including the PIN and password for Cashapp and reported the debit card as stolen on XX/XX/XXXX. I received confirmation that the debit card was canceled and a new one was being processed, so I assumed that with that confirmation from CashApp my account was secured again and was fine to remove the freeze on the card. On XX/XX/XXXX I received email confirmation from CashApp that the new debit card had shipped. On XX/XX/XXXX an entity claiming to be a XXXX in XXXX XXXX put two fraudulent transactions on the same debit card that was in the mail and yet to be delivered, {$150.00} and {$48.00} for a total of {$200.00} stolen from a debit card that was allegedly still in the mail. I immediately reached out to their support team and found them extremely lacking and unprofessional, there is not direct phone number so my case was reduced to chatting 5 different people and repeating the same information, they said all I could do was wait for them to respond within 10 business days. I have finally received an official acknowledgement of my case # XXXX, but they have not responded with how or when theyll return the funds and make sure that their system isnt compromised. Its extremely frustrating when a substantial amount of money is stolen electronically with information that I havent even received yet, and the XXXXashApp support team did nothing to soothe my anxiety or provide a solution. I dont understand why my CashApp debit card is being defrauded when my XXXX XXXX XXXX account is fine, Ive only experienced fraud on my XXXX account once and it was immediately rectified. Which is why Ive arrived at my conclusion that it must be negligence on CashApps part, Ive never dealt with a financial institution that doesn't make a potential security breach and fraud a priority. My hope is that by filing this complaint CashApp will return the stolen funds as soon as possible and receive the pressure it needs to stop this criminal negligence and strengthen their support team so they can assist with the fraud that theyve allowed to run rampant.

On XX/XX/2019, I deposited {$1400.00} from my debit card ending in XXXX to my cash app account/card. There was no problem. I went to the post office to to purchase a money order for XXXX . It was declined twice. I went to my car and went to the internet to get a number for cash app customer service. A number came up and I called it. It was an XXXX #. A man answered and said " Thank you for calling cash app, my name is '' such and such. I told him my name and told him that my card was declined twice and I wanted to know why. He asked for my phone number and asked me to log out of cash app and log back in and my card would be unlocked. So I did. When I logged back in my account was completely gone. I called back and they said they were going to be putting the money back into my bank and that they closed my account. I then emailed cash app and asked why I didn't receive my money. They said they don't use phones. I had the app installed on my XXXX and was still logged in to the account they had me log out of, and could see that someone had tried to send {$1400.00} to 2 different people I don't know but that was declined " for my protection '' and then they has withdrawn all my money to a card that I don't own. I told cash app that someone was stealing my money and then I sent them pictures of every single thing. They had me fill out a long email explaining everything that happened and they would " investigate ''. I said ok. I have yet to get my money back after emailing and emailing the man " XXXX '' who said he was taking over my case. In their FAQ it says " You will not be able to withdraw funds to any card except the card that deposited the funds ''. I told them that they were responsible for the theft because it was allowed to be withdrawn onto a card that did not deposit the funds. I sent pictures of everything that proved it. I created a new account and used several security features, I needed the card because my husband is a truck driver and that's how I send him money. So today I tried to send my husband money and they had closed my account, it still has money on my card. I tried to withdraw it and it won't let me. I have yet to get my XXXX $ back that is their responsibility to reimburse for allowing it to happen in the first place and now I can't withdraw the money I have on there. They have never returned my email since XXXX took over, he only said to file a complaint with my bank. It is not my banks responsibility because I deposited it onto the card. Cash App has done this to SOOOO many people, it is a branch of Square, a reputable company. Please help me get my money back, they won't help at all. I have emailed probably 40 times and now they closed my account so I can't email them anymore. Please help

Summary : On multiple occasions, customer ( s ) of Cash App/Square Inc. used electronic funds transfers to receive the proceeds of fraudulent transactions via their Cash App/XXXX XXXX accounts. Upon attempting to reverse the transfers, the reversals were blocked. Cash App has ignored my formal written dispute -- it has been over 10 days with no response or provisional reversal of the transactions, a violation of the Electronic Funds Transfer Act. Background Despite a phone call to XXXX XXXX ( the bank whose routing/account numbers were used to receive the EFTs ) on XX/XX/2021 as well as attempting to call Cash App, no action was taken to reverse the fraud, or to stop the pending fraudulent transactions. I am not a customer of Cash App, or Square Inc., or XXXX XXXX. Calling the Cash App support number at XXXX XXXX Time on XX/XX/XXXX resulted in an automated recording that declared that it was after business hours, however, no business hours were provided, nor any alternatives to contact Cash App other than signing into the Cash App account. As I dont have an account, that was a useless suggestion. I also reached out via the official Cash App XXXX account and received no response. Under the EFTA, in the event of an unauthorized transfer, provided that notification is provided to the financial institution within 60 days, there is no liability for the consumer. Despite repeated attempts to contact Cash App/Square Inc., the day the unauthorized activity was discovered and ongoing, issue was ignored. I also sent a letter to Cash App/Square Inc. detailing the transactions, including specific amounts, dates, and account numbers. Under the EFTA, they are required to complete an investigation into this matter within 10 business days and the error must be corrected within one business day after determining that an error has occurred. Cash App/Square Inc. has not responded at all, nor has any provisional credit been issued as required by the EFTA. According to the law, I am not liable for fraud. Also, there has been a significant amount of time and frustration in attempting to resolve this matter, including lost days at work. The lack of a phone number or contact information for the Cash App/Square Inc. fraud team is significantly negligent since there were transactions that happened even after I attempted to contact both Square Inc. and XXXX XXXX. The XXXX XXXX representative literally had no concern that there was active fraud occurring. She informed me to contact Cash App. And contacting Cash App was literally impossible since Im not a cash app customer and your phone number is useless. Obfuscating access to support is a significant issue. Attached is a PDF of the relevant transactions.

Money was stolen out of my account on XX/XX/2020 in the amount of {$390.00}. I tried to cash out the funds to my Bank Account and Kept getting an error message that said Account Locked, we detected something unusual. To protect your funds, weve temporary locked your account. I log in my cash app and my money was still there, but I got an email that said your debit card and email was unlinked from your account, I logged back into my cash app and noticed that someone replaced my debit card it another card ending in XXXX ( see attachment ) I then tried to link my debit card back and it said card not supported. I received several emails ( see attachments ) where someone was trying to log into my account and cash app sent sign-in codes. I immediately changed my email password. I tried reaching out to cash app and kept getting an automated response. On XX/XX/2020 I tried to log into my cash app, and it would not let me, it was as though someone deactivated my whole account. My cash tag $ XXXX no longer existed with an account, I put my phone number in, and they wanted me to create a whole new account. So not only was my money {$390.00} stolen, but all my stock and Bitcoin are gone. Cash App deals with customers money, so they should always have an 800 number where customers can speak with a live agent/representative instead of having to email and wait for a response. I was contacted by XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX, all with the same none sense response ( see attachments ) XXXX even said that my issues were resolved!!!!!!! I have tried every day to get a call back because apparently your Support team clearly does not understand what is going on. They all gave me a case # XXXX. I even reach out to cash app support on XXXX and XXXX and continue to get the same XXXX responses. The most frustrating part about this situation was I was on the road heading from XXXX, NC to my hometown XXXX, MI for my aunts funeral. I was going to use this money, for gas, food and to send money for the flowers for the funeral. This messed up my whole trip. I filed a police report here in the city where I live XXXX, NC with the XXXX XXXX Police. I will be reaching out to an Attorney, XXXX XXXX Police Department, XXXX XXXX Local News, XXXX Local News, posting on every social medial platform, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX and every blog until my money, stock and bitcoin is returned. This is ridiculous and frustrating, cash app supposed to be so safe and secure but somehow let an unknow individual get into my account. Im starting to wonder if it was an inside job because I always had my phone with me, and I thought since it was a mobile app you would need your phone for verification.

I opened a cash app account XXXX. I used it very little. I made the once in a while transfer to my friends and family without any problems I loaded my cash app card with money at numerous stores. I have problems in New Mexico with federal agents illegally logging into my bank accounts and changing my passwords having banks hold my deposits or force transactions. I have had many problems with many other bank accounts and prepaid cards.I lost my cash app card and two weeks ago I requested a new one. I received it and activated it without a problem. I went to XXXX XXXX yesterday XXXX XXXX to load {$500.00} onto my cash app card to be able to pay my bills. When I got to the register to load the card the store phone rang and then my cell phone rang with a spam call the clerk slid my card and told me the card issuer denied it. I couldnt understand why being nothing was Wrong with my card or the activation process. I thanked the clerk for trying and immediately messaged cash app. The advocate told me that all he seen was two {$30.00} transactions that were declined by my bank. I told him I was not talking about those charges because someone stole my card information which lead the bank to cancel my card as I was awaiting a new one. I attempted to go to 6 different stores and load my cash app card as I have bills that are due my car insurance being the most important. Every single store even XXXX told me that I couldnt load my card. I then knew that federal agents had everything to do with the problem and that the ringing of the phone at the store was to get my card number and purposely deny me of loading my cash app card to pay my bills. The same thing happened to my XXXX prepaid card. I then got very angry because my car insurance is set to expire on XX/XX/2021 at midnight when I messaged cash app again they sent me a message saying currently Youre not able to load YOUR CARD at a store. Why would I be the only person unable to physically load my cash app card? Thats unfair business practices Ive done nothing illegal with my cash app or to cash app. Why they would only apply this to me is beyond me. They then proceeded to lie to me and tell me that in my state loading of cash app cards is not available. When I have loaded numerous cash app cards in New Mexico. I recently changed my social security Direct deposit to come to my cash app account because XXXX was participating with federal agents to do the same thing that now cash app is participating with federal agents to do which is unfair business practices and violations of my constitutional rights. Federal Agents didnt have a warrant that prevents me from using our loading my cash app card so why cash app complied is unknown.

I am the owner of XXXX and XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX, WA. As part of our provided services, we offer massage treatments with CBD oils and pain creams. We follow all state laws and regulations with these services ( i.e. 0 % THC ). I have used Square as our payment processor since opening the business in XXXX, XXXX. Square recently introduced a program, which approves business owners to sell CBD products through them as the credit card processer. Because we offer treatments with CBD and also sell a CBD skincare line in our boutique, I applied for this program. This would allow us to also sell our products through our website ( online store ). I completed the application in early XXXX, XXXX. Since applying for this program, they have asked me for additional information several times. I have provided all the information requested every time. They continue to email me requesting more info. I have called, emailed, and chatted with their customer service agents more than 10 times. Each time, they say they will send my issue to other customer service agents who can help me. I have received NOTHING in response to my issues. Meanwhile, they have suspended all my funds processed by square for the past six weeks ( more at this point ). I have almost {$3000.00} suspended, which is really hurting my business and being able to pay for my business expenses ( including employee wages ). I have nothing more to give them. I have requested to exit the CBD program over and over, and they continue to email me saying that I can not exit the program until I provide more information. They also have a check box that you must agree to not sell CBD products through any other credit card processor if the application is not approved. I have never been approved for the program, and they also won't let me exit the program. They are also dictating what my business can sell even if I don't use them as a processor. They are threatening to deactivate my account and keep all of my funds if I continue to sell CBD products. This is ridiculous! I would think I can sell whatever I want as long as it complies with laws in my state. I will use another processor if Square will not allow me. But they are saying that they will completely deactivate my account ( losing all of my data and over $ 17K in gift card purchases over the past 18 months that still must be redeemed!!! ). This will bankrupt me. This is not right. This is hurting me and my business. It's taking time from my family and work life. I have spent hours dealing with this issue and no one is helping me. No one responds. They refuse to provide any contact info for the supposed customer service agents that they keep transferring me to. I need help.

I order a moving service to move me for {$50.00} per hour. The moving company asked for {$90.00} to deposit and I used CASH APP and sent the deposit. The moving company never showed up. I contacted CASH APP immediately. Two days later they said they already gave the money to XXXX XXXX and would not help me or provide his banking information so I can file a claim with his bank for fraud. I received their legal terms from their website regarding fraud. https : //cash.app/legal/us/en-us/tos VIII. OTHER LEGAL TERMS 1.

On XX/XX/XXXX I noticed suspicious activity on my Cash App Visa. I notified Cash App through their app on my mobile and I received an email acknowledging receipt of notification. I later attempted to call an 800 number, which later to learn it was not an official Cash App site. I sent an email to Cash App providing information from the 800 call which the representative asked me to access my personal checking account, an unauthorized payment to XXXX XXXX for {$690.00} was removed from my Cash App Visa, and two attempted withdrawals from my personal checking account declined by my bank, one for {$690.00} and other {$490.00}. My personal bank immediately deactivated my Visa debit card. I have not received a phone call from Cash App. I have only received communication through email. I went against my family and friends advise of filing charges and a complaint. I was asked to allow ten business days for an investigation, which ended XX/XX/XXXX. I received the following emails below post the alleged investigation. I had to travel for work without a debit card. I am on budget, in bankruptcy, bills not paid, and I had to borrow money. I am still wondering if my mobile is compromised, I removed apps and I limited my use. Cash App has not shown empathy, concern, or compassion to the matter. Cash App continues to dismiss the matter.

On XX/XX/2021, I tried to purchase a phone case from a company XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX that is based in the XXXX. I have made two other purchases from this company in the past without any issues. I did use a traditional bank to process those though. I am not sure why, WiFi connection perhaps, but the initial transaction was attempted six times. Each declined. I also tried to use a third party ( XXXX ) to process the order in an effort to add further protection to my account. This also was declined. I reached out to CashApp on multiple occasions to ask why, only to get a generic " suspicious activity '' reply. Never did I get anything further from them other than an endless runaround. After much dialog, and validating their policies, I made another attempt to purchase the case. Again being denied my purchase. Their policies plainly state : " You can now send or request Cash App payments with friends located in the XXXX. When you send a payment outside the US, Cash App will convert the payment from USD to GBP based on the mid-market exchange rate at the time the payment is created and your recipient will receive the funds in GBP. There are no fees to send or request payments with friends in the XXXX. '' From the policies of the vendor I was planning to purchase from, they state : " All prices of our delivery services on the Website are stated in either XXXX, XXXX or XXXX. Shipping terms are associated with your country and include any applicable VAT or sales tax payable. Delivery charges will be calculated during the checkout process. '' And while I have never left the area that I live, they even went so far to say : " This is XXXX with Cash App Support, thank you for reaching out. I understand how important it is for you to resolve this issue. Don't worry about it, I'll be glad to assist you After reviewing your account I would like to share with you the following information. We currently do not support Cash Card payments, ATM withdrawals, or other Cash App features while in XXXX XXXX, XXXX, the XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX, or internationally at this time. I do not have any new information to provide regarding this issue. Please review the information in our previous emails to understand how to move forward. For questions or concerns outside of this case, please reply back to me here. If you have any further questions please let us know, We'll keep an eye on your response. Warmest regards, XXXX '' This has proven to be the most frustrating issue to get to the bottom of as you can only reach them via email. Which leads you to a new person EVERY SINGLE TIME! This goes beyond ethical on so many levels!

Square , Inc. Attn : Cash Disputes XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, CA XXXX RE : You froze my account without a writ of execution and in violation of XXXX XXXX & XXXX. To whom it may concern : I am demanding the immediate release of my {$2500.00} balance in my CashApp account. You have frozen the account unlawfully, causing me not to have the funds to purchase essential medicines, pay for utilities, pay for auto insurance, life insurance, other auto expenses and notes and contributed to stress so great that I do not believe that I will survive XXXX more moment. I have advanced XXXX, XXXX, XXXX XXXXtc. On XXXX, XX/XX/2021, my associate transferred {$2500.00} to my CashApp account and we each transferred a total of {$2.00} into the account for test purposes. From that moment, we have not been able to cashout even {$1.00} and I could not refund the payment to my associate. After frustrating and failed attempts to get answers from your support app and personnel, I received an email yesterday, XX/XX/2021, stating that you had frozen my account due to your receipt of a XXXX filing that asserted I had a secured interest in a debt. I have explained to your personnel why your actions were impermissible, to no avail. Let me list several reasons : o New CA law ( XXXX XXXX ) requires CashApp to exempt the first {$1800.00} in my account from private creditor garnishments, with no need to go to court. You failed to execute that law, freezing my entire account. o You also violated CCP 704.22, per my explanation of my living expenses that are going unpaid. o You froze my account pursuant to a mere document from a creditor. That is impermissible under CA law. You must be served with a court-issued writ of execution by the XXXX before you can freeze my account or remove funds from my account. That procedure ensures due process, the accuracy of the creditors claim, etc. o I have informed you and the creditor that the UCC filing they presented to you is in error, that I have no secured claim with the creditor. o I have informed the creditor that its errors in the filing and the fact that it forwarded the erroneous document to third-parties to harass and intimidate me are violations of the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, subjecting it to damages under XXXX of the Act. o You are participating in an illegal debt collection activity, and have violated multiple laws to seize my money, giving rise to additional violations of the Act by you, as well as the torts of negligence and conversion. I am demanding the immediate return of my {$2500.00} to prevent further unlawful injury to my family, my business interests and me.

On XX/XX/XXXX my boyfriend sent me {$500.00} to my cash app XX/XX/XXXXXXXX. I no longer have access to the phone number associated with my cash app. I had to create a new cash app account XX/XX/XXXXXXXX to even contact support. I tried to get access my old account via email with cash app support. I verified everything they asked me to verify and was still told that for security reasons my request to access my old account was denied and that the decision is final. I repeatedly asked cash app support what steps I need to take to recieve the money that was sent to my account and to have my ticket escalated to a supervisor. They kept stating there is no additional information and that they would close my support ticket. My boyfriend ( the sender ) also put in multiple support tickets trying to get refunded for the {$500.00} since they would not give me access to my account. He was told that I would have to contact support on this issue and that there is nothing he can do on his end. I read under cash apps terms & conditions that when a peer-to-peer ( P2P ) transaction is initiated cash app can hold the funds until the payment is accepted or refused but not more than 14 days and that after 14 days by law they must return the payment to the sender. So we waited 14 days and then my boyfriend put another support ticket in to see why the funds were not returned to him. Today XX/XX/XXXX he spoke to a cash app rep XXXX who told him that since the payment was accepted he could not recieve his money back and that I would have to try to get the money from my account. I have been reaching out to cash app since XX/XX/XXXX trying to get my money. I am not able to get in my cash app to accept any payments nor cash out the balance in there. Once you recieved money from a sender you no longer have to accept the money it automatically deposits in your cash app. So being that this was not the first time he sent me money the {$500.00} would automatically be deposited in my account. I have a picture on my XX/XX/XXXXXXXX account I know the phone number associated with the account ( I just no longer have that phone number ) I have the same bank card and banking information from the account as well. Cash app is telling me that there is nothing they can do and I can not access my old account. Cash app is telling the sender there is nothing he can do to get the money back. So my {$500.00} is just sitting in the cash app platform and that is not acceptable. I need help accessing my money that was sent to me. I can verify anything you need to know. I have emails from me and the sender reaching out to cash app multiple times trying to get a resolution.

A friend of mine sent me {$450.00} through cash app owned by square Inc . This deposit from a friend 's cash app account to mine occurred on XX/XX/2020 When I tried to transfer the money out and into my bank account the same day I had issues and noticed that cash app locked my account due to what they thought was fraudulent activity. I emailed cash app continuously, for days after this, and followed all of their directions which involved uploading a picture of my ID front and back to them along with a picture of my face holding my ID. I tried to get a hold of them on the phone but they do not have anybody that can answer or talk to you. Sometime around XX/XX/2020 I logged in to find my account was deleted and wiped out and no trace of my old account along with no money. Luckily my friend still have the email that said who she sent money to along with my username. Cash app then said I needed to merge my account and I need to send them all the information I could to merge my old account which isn't showing up at all and my new account that I had to create just to get into cash app. I would think when you are handling someone's money, good customer service and professionalism is expected. All I got back from cash app were generated email responses which were all very generic and definitely not from a real person. I contacted the XXXX XXXX XXXX and filed a complaint. I documented everything I needed to on cash app and sent it to the XXXX XXXX XXXX Not even a day later I got a message in the XXXX XXXX XXXX With an attached response from cash app and it appeared yet again to be another generated response. The response was somewhere along the lines of telling me to do the same thing I've already done many times before this which is to verify who I am and send them a list of details about my old account that mysteriously vanished. I did what was asked once more but did not accept their response and wrote in the response to XXXX why I don't accept that response. It has been almost two months and still they refuse to talk to me on the phone they wont refund my money or explain what account my money was transfered to. I don't know if the XXXX XXXX XXXX is doing anything about it but it's been about two weeks since I've heard from them. I can also not get ahold of anyone on the phone at the XXXX XXXX XXXX I was told to call the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX but nobody answers or returns any of my calls and I have left voice mails. I do have a record and screenshots with proof that the money was transferred to my cash app. I just want to know where the money was transferred to and why my account is deleted and I want a full refund.

On XX/XX/2020 Cash App closed my account with them for no suspected reason. In order for me to use the application furthermore, I had to cash out all remaining funds, unlink my email and phone number and then proceed to make a new account with the same information, in which I did, with the exception of using the same email. I used a different email for the new account in hopes that they may need accessibility to my original email for the previous account in case of re-opening. I did as instructed from their help section on their app. On XX/XX/2020 I received a Cash card merchant refund to the cash card that was associated with the closed account for an unpleasant stay with XXXX. I communicated to an XXXX support ambassador that was assigned to my case prior to XXXX initiating the refund that the card that was used to book the reservation was closed and I had no access to that account. The Ambassador stated that XXXX can only refund the payment to the payment method that was used to book the reservation initially and that the recieving bank should either transfer my funds to my new account or mail me a check of the balance. After she initiated the refund, I contacted Cash App immediately to inform them of what was happening. They gave me one option called a merge and that was unsuccessful. They gave me another option of sending random payments back to recipients from the old account totaling the amount of the XXXX refund and then telling them to forward the funds back to my new account that is accessible. That was unsuccessful. Then they told to have XXXX recall the refund. I reiterated to them that XXXX can not recall the refund as with many other merchants. I reminded them that it is the financial institution 's responsibility to make sure the recipients funds are delivered to them. They said there was nothing they could do, they could not provide me with further information, my account was closed due to violation of their Terms of Service, and I would no longer be able to acccess the account or the funds. When I asked them what would happen to the funds since I can't retrieve them via their end or via XXXX, they did not respond with an answer to my question but instead just kept saying I will not have access to my funds for security reasons. Throughout the emails ( there is no live support ), they kept giving me false hope and the run a round with retrieving my funds. I just want my money. XXXX refunded {$680.00} and out of that, there is {$680.00} as a remaining balance on the card. I have contacted many agencies about this issue in the hopes that someone will help me. I am tired and need my funds.

I have been docked {$2000.00} from my Cash.App ( Square ) account due to a " reversal '' of a refund that I was granted. I had about {$400.00} in the account as this happened and it is now at a negative {$1600.00}. This has caused me to lose more money and threaten my credit due to missing automatic payments tied to my Cash.App card that were rejected and put in arrears. Initially, I was grossly overcharged by a bar that I used my Cash.App card, the transaction was supposed to be {$20.00}, but the bar charged me {$2000.00}, then contacted me a few hours after I left and told me about the " accident '' and told me that they are immediately putting in a refund request with whoever processes the payments ( I have proof of the actual refund ticket from the business ). This transaction occurred on XX/XX/XXXX, and the refund occurred on XX/XX/XXXX. and I was eventually refunded. A month later on XX/XX/XXXX, unbeknownst to me ( and not shown in my cash.app transactions activity ), the company that I was wrongfully charged by supposedly disputed the refund that I was granted. Then, on XX/XX/XXXX, the disputed refund was overturned, and my account was docked {$2000.00} again. Once again, I was not contacted or informed by Cash.App that there was even a dispute on the transaction, nor was it anywhere that was easy for me to access! In fact, I had to contact Cash.App over 10 times before I could even get proof that this even occurred! Then, I asked repeatedly for over 2-3 weeks for more information, and who is responsible for settling the payments between the two since both Cash. App and the company refuse to answer the most simple questions I have so I can figure what is going on. I have documents from both parties that prove that there is some questionable practices happening on both sides.

On XX/XX/2020 I was at XXXX trying to withdraw cash it keep telling me I reach my max with draws. I never had this happen so I got on my cash app app an look for the customer service number. At that point I call the number I found. He told me the only way he would be able to fix the issue was for me to go to the app store an download a app call XXXX XXXX or something along the lines of that. So I download it not know in this app was going to give him full control over my app/phone. While on the phone we was talking an I happen to get a beep I look at my phone an see him controlling my app an in my app I look at how much was in my account an it said XXXX. So I went from XXXX to XXXX. He did 4 diff with draws 3 for XXXX an one for XXXX. First 3 account that got the XXXX were all diff then one of those account received the XXXX. I started freaking out an ask him what happen to my money an to just put my money back on my card. He told me not to worry an to hold the line he well be back. He came back to the line an said he was having issues on returning the money an ask me 1st if I had a debit card I could link to my cash app that had XXXX on it I told him no. Then he ask XXXX? I said no ... then he ask me to go to the nearest store an purchase XXXX in XXXX XXXX cards. I told him I dont have any money an I was not doing that. I hung up on him at less 5 times over speaking with these ppl for 2 hours trying to get my money. At one point he even laugh an told me I been scam. Told me reporting it to anyone well do me no good. I contact cash app immediately thru email cause it 2020 an their a company who does not have a live customer service number smh. Waited for a response only to be told alone the line they could not do any form of refund cause someone had access to my account in the past. I ask for them to prove whatever their speaking out an yet to get any proof. After all this I learn going thru XXXX there many many scammer numbers listed as cash app customers service numbers. I also learn this has happen many times to other customers an still yet cash app is doing nothing to protect their customers. I went thru the app request a refund that did no good. I call all the numbers back they keep calling me back on only to learn those number all were text now number an was all disconnected. Am not sure how cash app doesnt feel I dont deserve my money back when the number i found WAS ON MY CASH APP APP.

I am writing because error message not allowing me login access. XX/XX/2021 I emailed cash app support seeking help with a password reset. CashApp failed resolving my login issue. I know about technology. CashApp does not provide the level of customer service I am looking for. I specifically told the company about what my login issue was that my phone was stolen connected with number XXXX and that I am accessing my cashapp with number XXXX. CashApp gave impossible instructions stating " Scroll down and tap Sign Out ''. Why would CashApp tell me to update my phone number on my account when the very reason I contacted their customer service was because I could not log in? This unacceptable technical support is frustrating my plans because I need my money added immediately! I live on skid row DTLA. I get {$100.00} a month from California General Relief " GR ''. I can't afford paying the bank fee on a checking account with XXXX XXXX because of XXXX capitalism in XXXX " economic genocide ''. I am poor financially because of my XXXX XXXX. Four times I reached out to cashapp. I have attached three email attempts that specifically stated the login issue. my failure conversation phone call was with XXXX from XXXX XXXX competed my efforts of resolving my login issue directly with CashApp. XXXX stated that if I dont create a new account then their is nothing that can be done on their in regarding recovering my login. I explained that already new accounts have been created and that is not what I want to do every time I have trouble logging in and that I disagree that the only solution is creating a new account. Further CashApp should not be in business if they can not support the existing customers they have. I specifically stated my account recovery on my app and website was asking to verify the credit card connected with number XXXX stating " please verify card ending in XXXX '', I emailed customer service stating that my phone number XXXX activated with a Mastercard ending in XXXX via email and telephone I asked CashApp why their system would ask me to verify an old credit card on file that is not active? Cashapp 's phone support couldn't answer and agreed that was strange however provided no solutions. CashApps system does not provide specific internal error code messages that would help their phone IT support know which field of information is triggering a lockout on their end. I then began demanding to speak with a developer regarding their technology and account login lock out. Supervisor XXXX disconnected my phone call because I refused her advice of creating a new account.

Hello Someone made two unauthorized charges through CashApp using my Maryland UI Benefit Card in XXXX. One was on XX/XX/XXXX for {$10.00} and initially went unnoticed. The other was on XX/XX/XXXX for {$600.00}. When I saw the {$600.00} I looked into it and requested a refund through the app but all that did was alert the person who made the charge that I wanted them to refund, which they immediately denied. I apologize for the following level of detail but I want to provide you with as much information as possible, in hopes of resolving the issue as fast as possible. Although this happened in XXXX, I have been trying to resolve the situation ever since, first with the bank through which the card was issued, then the Maryland Department of Unemployment, followed by what seems like endless XXXX searches, trying to hit upon just the right set of search words that finally led me to this site. I have sent emails to show my efforts but received no replies from anyone I reached out to. Beginning on XXXX I began sending money to an individual I came to know as XXXX, after first communicating with her under the name XXXX. I came in contact with her online and purchased digital, XXXX XXXX with her ( pictures and videos ) on XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX with no issue. We communicated during the time and decided to meet in person on XX/XX/XXXX. In preparation I sent her another {$50.00} on XX/XX/XXXX which she was to use for dinner the next day, which she did. It is my belief that while we were together she took my phone without my knowledge and used it to access the same app and my saved credentials to send herself the {$10.00}, I believe as a test. The meeting took place without incident. Nothing more than meeting up was promised or took place. She suggested meeting up " just to put face to the name. '' Days later on the XXXX a payment was sent to her for {$600.00}. I don't believe she accessed my phone again although it is possible. She came to my house to return a magazine she " inadvertently '' took the day before and came and went while I helped my brother bring a bed into the house. Later I saw the charge and reached out to her and found she blocked me on every platform we'd previously talked. I contacted CashApp about a refund and at that time found out it's only course of resolution was to ask the the individual to send the refund and that unsurprisingly, she denied it. Since then I've had no contact with her in any way. I also reported her account to the owners of the site I first made contact with her, for which they thanked me and to my knowledge, deleted her account.

Prior to using Square merchant services I was with XXXX XXXX for my merchant processing. In the 6 years I was with XXXX, I won over 90 % of chargebacks filed against my company. XXXX provided me with the full card number of the cardholder for each dispute, the name and phone number of the bank handling the dispute, and the means to send me rebuttals to the banks. Now that I am with Square, they refuse to provide me with any of these details, despite Square using XXXX as their own processor. Since signing up with Square I have lost 100 % of my chargeback disputes, which leads me to believe that Square is not sending the rebuttals and evidence I upload via their online dispute resolution process to the cardholder 's bank. When I called in to square to ask for the bank details for 2 banks handling 2 different disputes on my account, they refused. These disputes amount to over {$2400.00}. On one dispute I have included signed proof of delivery to the customer dated after her complaint of " product not as described '', which is an impossible complaint to make before receiving merchandise. I also sent an email from this customer who stated she canceled her dispute with her bank and I would be getting my funds returned. Weeks have gone by and the funds have not been returned to my account despite uploading this documentation to Square refuting the customer 's claim. A second dispute the customer claimed non-delivery of Goods. I provided a signed proof of delivery to the billing address of this customer. I also called the customer who confirmed he had contacted his bank, confirmed receipt of goods and that the dispute had been canceled. Despite providing this documentation to Square, my funds have not been returned. How I can go from over a 90 % win ratio to a 100 % loss ratio from switching processors is a mystery. The only logical conclusion ( because the way I fight chargebacks is the same now as it was then ) is that Square is mishandling my documentation and not providing it to the cardholder 's bank, allowing the bank to defraud me for thousands of dollars. Requests for a supervisor by Square were denied. Requests for the cardholder bank contact details were declined. Proof that the documents I submitted to square were delivered to the cardholder 's bank were declined. A request for a callback from a manager/supervisor or the legal team were declined. Square is violating my financial rights and assisting with fraud against my account. They are refusing to provide information that XXXX gives them access to, stating company policy as their reasons.

FIRST ISSUE : I transferred {$37.00} to my cashapp on XX/XX/XXXX. My bank, XXXX, sent me a statement reflecting CashApp receiving the transfer of {$37.00}. Cashapp sent me a form letter over and over again each time I contact them. SECOND ISSUE : I am exhausted with XXXX XXXX since XXXXan Hurricane. I am disturb with your service. My latest issue with XXXX is expired XXXX transfer to another XXXX Account. So, I transferred of {$45.00} to XXXX XXXX XXXX account ( XX/XX/XXXX ). It was my mistake that I transferred funds to an expired XXXX XXXX, should have known. I am puzzle why the transfer complete thru an expired card?? It should have decline the transfer!! XXXX XXXX ( my daughter ) have not using her XXXX card for years. During to request replacement card, XXXX and I spoke to several representative ( s ) decline the replacement card due a damage ( XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX ), can not see it, rubbed off numbers. Plus, we dont remember were we were living when XXXX XXXX using her XXXX. Now, we are attaching documents the representative ( s ) to confirm our identity! I questioned the information they requested : driver license, lease, utilities bill to get a REPLACEMENT CARD to receive my {$45.00} dollars back. SECOND ISSUE We lived in XXXX XXXX, FL at time when Dorian Hurricane hit the XXXX Coast. XXXX and I was in the living an hotel to shelter from the hurricane, State Emergency. The whole episode was and is deplorable! First, XXXX XXXX debit my card several times during our visit. I contacted XXXX regarding XXXX XXXX on my account when we check-in XX/XX/XXXX, they submitted late which default my account. You denied me and XXXX XXXX did again. The reservation clerk run my card for {$79.00} and some change, well, she failed to type in the right amount. So, my daughter, XXXX XXXX, paid the {$79.00} same day, hours, seconds. XXXX XXXX failed to credit my funds {$69.00} and change due her ( reservation agent ) error. I contacted XXXX investionate my dispute. I have evidence reflecting her error, XXXX denied my dispute claiming that XXXX XXXX will not give XXXX the information of the transaction. And you know what happens when all those errors do to my account?? It negative all over the place!!!!!!! My work check was debit due XXXX XXXX inept reservation agent, and you allowed all of it. Money was limited due the State Emergency yet, XXXX let them get away with it. I want to get my money back, you dropped the ball. I attaching everything I think you need.

On XX/XX/XXXX I tried to send {$800.00} to an account on Cash app that I also own. I have always done this every start of the month for a very long time. This time the cash app was responding as if it didn't go through. I did it 2 more times and again not showing up. I tried to log into that account that I was sending to and it was not only not showing up but we couldn't access the account either. I immediately started to correspond to Cash App and this company is so completely comical ( I don't mean this in a good way ) in how they respond. I could only speak to them through email at this point as they had NO phone number for customer service. Each correspondence would take 24 to 48 hours for them to get back to me. I then could not access the account the money was sent to and the way Cash App works it will not let you out of one screen without creating another account. I have all accounts created with all phone or emails attached to them and no matter how I tried to prove my identity then wouldn't help me. The next customer service rep who did respond after waiting 24-48 hours would start the whole process over asking the same canned responses/questions. I finally had over 60 emails that I printed out after 3 weeks and mailed them direct along with a letter to their corporate headquarters in XXXX XXXX. They received it on XX/XX/XXXX and never responded to me. In the meantime, I kept trying my hardest every day to talk with them or fix the situation and they kept up with the same canned responses and never reading the previous correspondences. I then filed a complaint with the XXXX last week and then on XX/XX/XXXX they opened up a chat feature on the phone and again same XXXX canned responses and never reading any previous responses and I even offered my credit card info, social security, bank statements etc to prove who I am, at this point I am desperate because I don't know too many people who can live without {$2400.00} dollars and still pay bills. Then at about XXXX this morning after another long morning of frustration and me again being in tears I go to my computer and on one of the accounts that I kept looking at but never had shown the money mysteriously shows the {$2400.00}. It cost me {$36.00} to access the money instantly. I wasn't going to allow them to have 1 more day of my money nor do I trust them at all!!! I have been having severe anxiety and stress the entire 5 weeks because they were holding my money hostage and with no human interaction to help me get it back or repair the issue.

Cash App has froze my account with {$250.00} for 2 months. I received another {$250.00} payment so now there is {$500.00} on Cash app that they will not allow me to access. On XX/XX/XXXX I submitted a request to verify my account so that I can withdraw and deposit bitcoin. XXXX with Cash App support instructed me to upload a selfie of me holding my license and photos of the front and back of my license to a website which she provided the link to. Upon doing so, I was notified that the verification was not accepted. I then contact cash app support on XX/XX/XXXX for assistance. They responded on XX/XX/XXXX indicating that the account was verified in XXXX of XXXX by XXXX and that they have frozen the account until they complete verification. I responded on XX/XX/XXXX requesting the requirements for verification and since then there has been no indication of what is required to unfreeze my account. I have replied to the emails they have sent. I have created new inquiries via the actual cash app. I have sent direct messages via XXXX to cash app support. And I did receive a response from them indicating that someone has my case and will be contacting me and still nothing. I received a payment of {$250.00} on XX/XX/XXXX and have been unable to cash out or use the funds as my account is frozen. I received another payment for {$250.00} on XX/XX/XXXX. Now there is {$500.00} in my account that I can not use. This is the worst customer experience I have ever had in my life. I have cried over and over as this is money that I need to survive. I have had late fees aasessed and all types of financial inconveniences steming from this issue. I explained to them that my cash app account is on my girlfriend 's phone because she manages my household 's finances. She is able to use the cash app as she so chooses as do I. The account itself was not verified by XXXX in XXXX they are simply associating my account with her number which should not be the case. If you are able to open several accounts they should let you know that it will be linked to the initial account that was setup on that phone number. Even if that is the case the verification is for XXXX not for XXXX and I have provided exactly what they asked for. The bank account linked is to XXXX not XXXX the only thing linking anything is merely her phone number. There is no reason to freeze an account based on the same phone number if the name on the account, the name on the bank account, and the verification all line up. This has been an unbelievably frustrating issue.

Good afternoon, My name is XXXX XXXX. I had an account with Cash App ( which is currently closed ). For nearly 21 months now I have been attempting to cash out {$2400.00} that is rightfully mine. They first claimed I couldn't cash out because that transfer was being disputed by the sender, which happens to be my husband, XXXX XXXX. That is false, and I have sent multiple emails with the history of the transactions. I sent them the information below : " Below are all the transactions that involve {$2400.00} between XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX and myself, XXXX XXXX. As you can see, this has been resolved on XX/XX/2018. The {$2400.00} that my husband, XXXX XXXX, sent me, XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/2018 at XXXX XXXX was never disputed. The transaction that was accidentally disputed and resolved by XXXX XXXX is the transaction sent from XXXX XXXX to XXXX XXXX ( unknown date and time because all off $ XXXX history was erased ). Thank you for your time, and if you need anything please let us know. XX/XX/2018, XXXX XXXX : {$2400.00} from XXXX XXXX $ XXXX to XXXX XXXX $ XXXX -- Web Receipt Identifier : XXXX XX/XX/2018, XXXX XXXX : {$2400.00} from XXXX XXXX $ XXXX to XXXX XXXX $ XXXX -- Web Receipt Identifier : XXXX XX/XX/2018, XXXX XXXX : {$2400.00} from XXXX XXXX $ XXXX to XXXX XXXX $ XXXX -- Web Receipt Identifier : XXXX XX/XX/2018, before XXXX XXXX : {$2400.00} from XXXX XXXX $ XXXX to XXXX XXXX $ XXXX -- - this is the transaction XXXX XXXX accidentally filed a claim on XX/XX/2018, XXXX XXXX : {$2400.00} transaction from XX/XX/2018, XXXX XXXX refunded from XXXX XXXX 's account $ XXXX due to XXXX XXXX 's error in filing a dispute. Web Receipt Identifier : XXXX XX/XX/2018, XXXX AM : Cashapp returns the {$2400.00} back to XXXX XXXX 's account $ mikepavlovich after XXXX XXXX releases the funds back to cashapp after XXXX XXXX worked with XXXX XXXX to cancel the dispute he never filed. The reasoning on the transaction is For XXXX XXXX XXXX : https : XXXX This is where the issue has been resolved between those two individuals. ( I attached a screenshot of this transaction from XXXX XXXX 's account ). '' Cash App would tell me to patiently wait while they investigate the case, then when my patience runs out I reach out to them and they will tell me the case is closed since I did not reach out to them. The transaction between XXXX, my husband, and myself was never in question. I am very exhausted from this situation and am just trying to cash out my {$2400.00}.

On Sunday, XX/XX/2019 I discovered that {$1100.00} was automatically deducted by Square from my XXXX XXXX account. No advanced notice or warning was given to me about a possible deduction. I called Square on Monday, XX/XX/XXXX and the representative ( XXXX ) informed me that an email was sent to me on XX/XX/XXXX ( by XXXX ) saying that it was because of a negative balance and because of a payment dispute. He forwarded me the original email that was sent to me by XXXX, however, this email did not state any information on which account and no info on a dispute and who did a dispute. I was very surprised and explained to the representative that I do not have any payment disputes listed within my account and he stated that it was because of another account. I also explained that I did not see any payment dispute in my other account. He informed me that he could not give me any other information and I would be required to just wait for an email from square. The next day, I called again on XX/XX/XXXX and spoke to another representative and wanted to find out information of why this amount was deducted. This representative was also not able to provide me with any information and stated that I should wait for an email from Square. On XX/XX/XXXX I received an email from Square Recovery stating Weve confirmed that the account XXXX 's XXXX XXXX associated with XXXX is connected to XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. At this point I still do not know why this amount was deducted and they have not responded with any information on any payment disputes. I do have 2 accounts and in both accounts I do not have any payment disputes listed, nor did they offer me any other information or breakdown of why this amount was deducted. They also stated that this investigation is closed. I also want to state that in my whole time being with Square ( approximately 8 years ), I only had 2 disputes and those were ruled in my favor and after those disputes I never received any other disputes so I do not know what they are talking about. I would like to state further that most of my transactions range in the amount of {$50.00} - {$70.00} for each client so it would be impossible to have a payment dispute of {$1100.00}. I should have the legal right to know what this dispute is all about so that I could respond with an appropriate answer, or that I can further investigate, however, Square refuses to provide me with any information of why they illegally deduct money from my business account.

My wife 's Cash App account was hacked. Noticed that there was XXXX w/d from her Cash App that was linked to her debit card and ultimately our checking account. I reported the fraud to XXXX XXXX XXXX immediately and my wife reported the fraud to Cash App right away -- same day. Both parties initiated a " dispute '' but months after, I get notification from both parties that they have denied our claim. We have no idea who the money went to, did not participate in the transaction, did not allow anyone access or use of the Cash App account and we did not benefit from the transaction. I tried re-opening the case with XXXX XXXX XXXX and I was denied. I even provided all the screenshots that requested showing I was working with Cash App to resolve and listed on my fax to them that this was complete unauthorized fraud. XXXX XXXX XXXX and Cash App still refuse to assist me. This has been going on for months. XXXX XXXX XXXX reversed provisional credit on XX/XX/2021 and then closed the case again on XX/XX/2021. Both times they closed it for this reason, which is complete false. As you requested, we completed a re-evaluation of your claim. Our research included the information you provided with your claim, your account history and/or the monthly account statements we sent you. We made this decision because : **The charge was authorized by you or by someone who has permission to use the card or account. If we used documents to resolve your claim, we've included them with this letter. If you have additional information to support your claim, we request that you send it to us in the next 10 business days so we may reopen it. They will not allow you to reply. You have to call a 877 # that takes an eternity to reach someone. I did once and they asked me to fax proof and I did. Now, I can not reach them by phone as the hold times are so long. This dispute began back on XX/XX/2021. I reported the fraud the very day the transactions were trying to come through. We were very prompt and complied with all their requests to resolve. Cash App will not assist and say they are working with our bank. They are not. We attempted to dispute with them also and they do not have anyone you can call. You have to go back and forth for days via email. They are denying the claim without an accurate reason as well and will not assist. XXXX was stolen from me via Cash App in the amounts of ; XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX I need help with this dispute on either company 's behalf.

Here is how I have been victimized by XXXX XXXX and Cash App. I started investing in XXXX in XX/XX/XXXX and started out with {$300.00} then I took a large chunk of my retirement money to invest by buying {$5000.00} thru Cash App on XX/XX/XXXX. This was my first time I've ever invested in XXXX. The investment firm I worked with at the time had assigned me a trading XXXX to step me thru the process of continually buying XXXX thru Cash App every few days. XX/XX/XXXX I bought {$100.00}, then I started withdrawing what I had bought directly to this investment firms wallet address. For 3 days I withdrew all that money I had bought to the investment firms wallet address. Then on XX/XX/XXXX I ended up buying {$1000.00} more of XXXX. Then for 3 more days I withdrew that amount I had bought and sent it to the investment firms wallet address. Then on XX/XX/XXXX I bought another {$5300.00} more of XXXX thru Cash App. This whole time not knowing that my money was going to an investment firm that would never release my profits they had promised me. I came to realize after {$31000.00} was bought in XXXX XXXX Cash App and realized that I've invested all my life savings including my retirement money thru my work was gone, I had nothing left to give. This investment firm had milked me out of all my money and promised me I would be able to transfer my profits of {$310000.00} that had grew in 3 months, not knowing that I could not withdraw my profits because supposedly according to the firm, they could not release my profits without paying an additional {$16000.00}. This went on since XX/XX/XXXX. At that time I felt helpless and did not know what to do. I got scared. I needed my money back. I finally realized I had lost all my money to a fake company that pretended to be legit, but isn't. They had a fake license. Fake ID. Fake website. I needed help. I got scammed! Kindly find the conversations between me and the scam company attached. I've never been through this before. So the whole {$34000.00} I lost to a firm that has scammed me out of my money. Found out this investment firm has scammed not just me, but a large number of investors. I thought by investing I would get a big return. Obviously not. So I'm asking Cash App to please reconsider your decision to refund my money back to my bank account, so I can feel confident and secure about my future. I dont have a future now because all my money is gone. I'm XXXX XXXX XXXX. I have grandkids.

These money hold by square with no reason. I contact them to release the money but they denied. I could not process legal service without money. I had to refund them from my own money because Sqaure hold the money. I had not enough money and it is these guys responsibility I used my owned credit card purchase using square to refund money to customers.However, It failed because these square people hold this transaction again. This square company greatfuly hold my credit card purchase too. And this their good reason to hold this money forever. I found out alot of square small business customers having similar issue. they never release money. and they use these money to but other company ( please XXXX square complain and acquisition ) Right after I complained about the holding. They distinctive my account. There were no record left. All my {$18000.00} was gone. I contacted them so many times then the account appears again.

I had 16 unauthorized charges from XXXX post to my CashApp card on XX/XX/21 from XXXX XXXX to XXXX XXXX totaling {$2200.00}. There were 9 charges for {$100.00}, there were 5 charges for {$210.00}, there was 1 charge for {$85.00} and the last charge was {$150.00}, completely wiping every last XXXX from my account. I contacted CashApp immediately because these were unauthorized and still showing in pending. They were charged to XXXX in XXXX, MA XXXX miles from me in XXXX, VA while I was sound asleep. CashApp said to contact merchant, and that I had to wait until these charges posted to my account as cleared and paid before I could dispute them. I asked for contact information to contact whomever the charge was and they gave me XXXX XXXX, even though it says " XXXX ''. I said " wasn't that proof it isn't valid, if the company, and phone number and website are all 3 different and there were multiple rapid identical ammounts charged within 6 minutes, didn't all of that SCREAM FRAUD??? '' I asked for contact and account info for where the money was going and they said they could not provide that info to me, that it was against privacy laws. Wait, what? But if its a legit account with Target that info should be public, right? I called the Target in XXXX, MA, where the charges appeared to from in pending and they are already aware of the problem because they've been getting these calls for the last 2 to 3 weeks!!!!!! But nope, they won't issue a statement that they are not holding these funds, and nope they can not provide me with any information about how my card number was compromised on their website. I do not have a XXXX credit card or exclusive member account, but I did buy a xmas tree on XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX and a XXXX XXXX tree the same XXXX website on XX/XX/XXXX. XXXX store manager in XXXX, MA, XXXX, AND the corporate office at the number she gave me to call both acknowledged to me that they know their site has been hacked and that they'dbeen getting these calls for several weeks. They stated they were positive it was a breaxh with CashApp and recommended I delete my CashApp app immediately and stop using it! Meanwhile, CashApp obviously knows they've been hacked too since this is an repeat of multipleaccounts over several weeks. Neither company will take responsibility and stop the funds tranafer or release the hold. They both should be held accountable legally.

On XX/XX/2021, I had a conversation via XXXX with a local tattoo artist who was promoting their work. The tattoo artist messaged me and asked what I was looking to have done, explained the appointment process, we agreed on a date and time and he provided me with the address to the tattoo shop. I plugged the address into XXXX XXXX and confirmed that it was a valid address, 9.6 miles from my residence. He advised that there would be a deposit of {$250.00} to book the appointment, which is very common for tattoo shops to require deposits when booking appointments. I provided images of what kind of tattoo I was looking for and he confirmed price and that he would be able to do the work. He provided me with his CashApp username as XXXX XXXX and advised me that once I sent the deposit to let him know so that he could begin sketching the tattoo. I sent the money using my CashApp account and advised him that the money had been sent. He continued messaging me asking questions about the tattoo and if I wanted him to come to my house as he does mobile tattoos also or if I wanted to head to the shop. I advised that I would feel more comfortable heading to the shop. I never heard from him again. Around XXXX that same evening, I received a direct message from someone on XXXX advising me to not do business with this person because her daughter was just scammed. She advised me that she noticed I had commented on one of the tattoo artists pictures and wanted to reach out to me to warn me that he was a scammer. She mentioned that he provided her daughter with a fictitious address, asked her for a {$100.00} deposit and then never messaged her daughter back once the money was sent. I reported his XXXX page as fraud, blocked him and reported his CashApp profile as a scam and reported the fraud. XXXX finally shut his account down but it seems his CashApp profile is still active. On XX/XX/2021, I received an e-mail from CashApp advising that the refund request had been declined because there was nothing they could do. CashApp has the ability to see how many times this person has been reported as a scam or fraud and should have shut this account down. CashApp also can see the routing and account information or debit card information as to where the funds are being deposited or cashed out to for this user, yet CashApp seems to not care and allow this type of fraud to continue to happen.

Im a cash app customer in XXXX Mississippi. On XX/XX/19 a customer paid me by cash app in the amount of {$340.00}. Around XXXX my wife and I had dinner at a local restaurant and spent {$36.00}. This was my only purchase that day. The next morning I awoke to 5 complete different charges from 2 different merchants in a state far from my home that Ive never even visited. My card had not been stolen either as I still have it on me. All 5 transactions were made from gas stations in XXXX Tennessee. Four of the charges where from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. This merchant ran 3 transactions of {$50.00} and 1 transaction of {$49.00} for a total amount of {$190.00}. It says gas above the name XXXX XXXX on the cash app statement but no other information provided. The 5th transaction was from another gas station XXXX also in XXXX Tennessee for the amount of {$50.00}. This the only information I could see or come up with as I started to frantically search for the exact locations and phone numbers but was unsuccessful. I went through the steps of openin tickets of unauthorized transactions on each on and I searched for a customer service phone number for cash app and learned there isnt one. You have to email them and wait on a response. I have got only 2 response with the 1st response 5 hours later was one asking for a list of the names of merchants, the dates and time the transactions occurred and the exact amount of each one. And a reason why I was disputing the charges which was of course fraud/no knowledge. The second response after I emailed the info they told me to provide wasnt as hopeful as they informed me that I needed to contact the merchants and ask them for a refund myself and after they agree the refund initiation could take up to 10 days. Problem is that there is several XXXX gas stations and several XXXX XXXX XXXX stations located in XXXX Tn and there is NO information provided to me on this app of any physical address or phone number which would help me locate these merchants. XXXX XXXX provides the service with Square cash aka cash app so why would they not be able to provide this information for me or track down where my money went and how someone was able to do such without my card or pin. I in trusted my money with cash app and never had a problem before until now. Please help me as I do not know what to do other than take a {$300.00} loss of my money.

On XX/XX/XXXX2020 a payment of XXXX was charged to my cash app for a puppy and shipping of which i never received. I immediately contacted the seller to request my money back and received no response. I contacted cash app support via email and explained the situation that same night cash app support remotely set up a false XXXX XXXX bank account and retrieved another XXXX from my legit bank account. I contacted my bank and canceled my debit card and stopped all payments from cash app moving forward. For the past two months Ive been trying to get my month back from them Ive even filed a dispute with my bank and cash app has refused to respond. However Ive been in constant contact via cash app support which is a complete joke of customer service because all they do is send generic emails saying theyll open a claim i respond with the necessary information then i get an email from a totally different member of cashapp support. Every email comes from a different member and their end verdict is always they understand that its fraud however theyre not gon na give me my money back they told me to contact the seller which I have multiple times and have received no response they can see that at their end but they dont want to give me my money back theyve also told me that the seller didnt complete the necessary steps to except my money yet its proven by my bank to have been taken out of my account the false XXXX XXXX bank account that they set up and again fraudulently stole another {$120.00} from me they tell me theyll open a case I provide the information then another person from cash app support emails me and asked me to provide the information yet again when I tell them that I already provided it and they need to look back in their records then they close the case on me Ive gotten nothing but the runaround from cash app theyve stolen {$1000.00} for me acknowledge it to be fraudulent and yet tell me that theres nothing that they can do about it essentially because theyre the ones who stole my money. This is completely unethical and far customer service its fraud and i want my money back. I have every email thread since XX/XX/XXXX20 cash app has done nothing but dig themselves a hole. Ive already filed a claim with XXXX who told me to escalate it to the federal trade Commissioner and you guys. I honestly just want my money back

Complaint Details So I received a {$4700.00} direct deposit early Tuesday morning like really really early so I was sleep. When I woke up I had notifications from cash app that I sent some money to someone so I get on my cash app and I have a unauthorized sent payment for my whole {$4700.00} so of course I file a dispute with cash app. They reply and tell me to answer some questions which I did. Fast forward to this morning wed XX/XX/2020 I get a email from cash app saying they are denying my claim because even tho the payment wasnt sent by my device ( and this is the only device I have and the only device I've ever used to access my cash app ) but even tho the payment wasnt sent from device apparently the payment was sent by a device that Has accessed my account before ... .and so they do not have enough evidence to get me my money back ... Wow really if someone hacks your account and you don't have cash in it at the time but you show that you are active on cash app chances are they are either going to stay logged in to your account until u get some money in it or they are going to keep checking the account until u get money in it. I had {$4700.00} stolen out of my account money that I need to take care of my family my kids I mean come on we are going thru a pandemic and cash app denies my dispute and let 's some low life hacker get away with my {$4700.00} that's unbelievable what kinda of company does that. I don't know what I'm going to do now I can't pay my rent or nothing. Oh and if someone hacks your account and they access your account more then once and then send a payment cash app will say that whatever device the hacker used is now a known device and will not help you they will deny your claim even tho they ask you what devices you have used to access your account and in my case my XXXX phone is the only device I have accessed my account with. They still will say the device that isn't yours and you have never used to access your access is a known device. I'm pretty sure they can see the IP address and device I use is completely different from the hackers IP address and device. I have contacted cash app support they didn't help so I have filed a complaint with the XXXX now with the CFPB and next I'm going to file a complaint with my state AG and work my way up cash app chain of command and email the higher ups.

While temporarily living in XXXX, NV for a work assignment, I searched for a one month apartment rental on XXXX. Upon finding what I thought to be a suitable place, I contacted the owner of the listing. We then exchanged a number of emails and texts before I submitted an application to rent the place. As the final step in the process, the listing owner asked me to wire {$1400.00} ( cost of the apartment for one month + a deposit ) via CashApp, a peer-to-peer payment platform owned by Square. I sent the money on the evening of XX/XX/2019. Upon waking up the next morning, the XXXX listing owner let me know that his account was closed and that the payment did not go through. He asked me to send the payment to another account. After a long series of interactions, I agreed to send another {$1000.00}. In the meantime, I reached out to Cash App to see what I could do to recoup the {$1400.00} that I had sent the night before. Minutes after I sent the second payment of {$1000.00}, CashApp informed me that my first payment of {$1400.00} had been cashed out and used to buy Bitcoin. Immediately, I contacted CashApp to stop the second payment of {$1000.00} as it was clear that I was being scammed by the XXXX listing owner. The CashApp team was not able to stop the payment. The owner of the XXXX listing stopped responding to messages. I contacted my bank ( a major bank ) to dispute the charges. They initially refunded the amounts, but after a month, the bank has denied the claim as of early XX/XX/2019. They state that they have talked to CashApp and that the company " adequately provided the services of transferring money to a merchant. '' They say that they can do nothing more and that I need to contact CashApp. In the meantime, CashApp has closed my account because with the stated reason that my account is closed because I filed a claim to dispute charges made on the app. So I have absolutely no way of contacting them or any hope of recouping the {$2400.00} that the fraudster stole. I feel completely powerless and hopeless in this situation, and I'm confused as to how reputable banks and companies like Square/CashApp can continue operating without addressing serious issues of fraud like this. In fact, CashApp has made it impossible for me to contact them because they closed my account. This seems unreasonable and unjust.

On XX/XX/2021 some people who were pretending to be an identify verification company for cash app and XXXX committed fraud using cash app and my bank account. This fraud occurred using Cash app which is a subsidiary of square. The people committing the fraud said that I needed verify my identity by sending money to a person that I know and having them send the money back to me. I sent {$1900.00} to my wife XXXX XXXX, and she sent it back to me to my cash app. The fraudsters asked me to use an application off the XXXX XXXX called XXXX XXXX quick support. This was part of the very detailed process that was described to me by the fraudsters that would help with my identity verification which would also me to use other quick money transaction applications. From an optics standpoint, the money looked like it came back to me from my wife on the cash app platform as it even had my cash app name as the recepient. However, somehow the fraudsters must have a way to manipulate cash app systems because the funds got deposited onto a bank card that was not linked to my wife or my cash app account and still isn't. I reached out to cash app, they do not have any phone support and continued to send me in a circular loop of emails saying " the money went to your bank card '', with me continuing to tell them that it did not. Finally cash app sent a record of the transaction. My bank XXXX reviewed it an pointed out for Cash app that it looked like the money was withdrawn from a XXXX terminal in CA. I live in Ohio and was in Ohio at the time. This was another major indication that fraud had occurred and Cash app at the point really slowed their communications back to me via email, possibly to gather a story to try and explain what another financial institution had pointed out to the. Cash app from my perspective has some liability in this, and is refusing to assist me with the issue that occurred on their money transfer platform. Cash apps website even says they have fraud protection, but when the fraud occurs they are reluctant to help. {$1900.00} is a lot of money to me, and I would think that cash app would be able to refund customers and have some ownership in understanding how fraud is occurring through their systems verses a rehearsed response to affected customers saying " the money went to your bank card, which is not true ''.

We set up a square account for our business to accept card payments. The square account was set up XX/XX/XXXX. The first payment from a client was XX/XX/XXXX. We has no issues with square transferring our money into our bank account at XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX. All transfers from square were made the next day into our business checking account. At the end of XX/XX/XXXX we realized the last deposit from square that entered our account was from XX/XX/XXXX. We contacted square to see where our missing XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX deposits were. Square put a hold on our account. They asked us to submit documentation to verify our bank account information. On XX/XX/XXXX we submitted our last three months of bank statements to square from our XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX account. On XX/XX/XXXX we received an email from square stating our account with them had been deactivated. At that point in time we believed {$31000.00} was being held by square. Square stated in the deactivation email from XX/XX/XXXX that our funds would be transferred in two business dates making that date XX/XX/XXXX. No transfers were received on XX/XX/XXXX. Multiple attempts between XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX were made to square on why it was deactivated and when we would receive our funds. On Monday XX/XX/XXXX we discovered another bank account was linked to our square. It was a XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX account. We saw that we had {$17000.00} available to transfer into our bank account. We were manually able to re-enter our information for XXXX XXXX. We received a conformation email stating that the account was changed and the {$17000.00} was successfully transferred into our XXXX XXXX account. We never received an email when it was changed from the XXXX XXXX bank to the XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX. As for the other {$13000.00} it was transferred into the XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX account on two different instant transfers. All previous transfer were 1 to 2 business days never instant. The first instant transfer was made on XX/XX/XXXX for the amount of {$7900.00} and the second instant transfer being on XX/XX/XXXX for {$5500.00}. Fraudulent claims have been made to XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX, a police report has been filed, a report with the FBI has been filed and a complaint to the FDIC. No one at square has contacted us back and we continue to make several attempts daily to contact them.

{$7200.00} WAS STOLEN FROM MY CASHAPP ACCOUNT ON XX/XX/20. This is money that was stored on my actual Cashapp wallet not from my bank account. I WOKE UP AT XXXX TO A TEXT FROM THIS COMPANY TIME STAMPED AT XXXX THAT MY CASH SECURITY LOCK WAS TURNED OFF. I IMMEDIATELY LOGGED INTO THE APP AND DISCOVERED THAT {$7200.00} WAS STOLEN FROM ME IN THE FORM OF 6 SEPARATE TRANSACTIONS 5 MINUTES AFTER HACKING INTO MY ACCOUNT ( {$2900.00} XXXX, {$2500.00} XXXX, {$500.00} XXXX, {$550.00} XXXX, {$500.00} XXXX, {$250.00} XXXX ). I IMMEDIATELY FILED A COMPLAINT THRU THE APP FOR EACH TRANSACTION. SEVERAL HOURS LATER THAT EMAILED ME BACK ASKING FOR ADDITIONAL INFO WHICH I IMMEDIATELY PROVIDED. THE FOLLOWING BUSINESS DAY, I RECEIVED ANOTHER EMAIL ASKING FOR ADDITIONAL INFO IN WHICH I PROVIDED. I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO REACH OUT TO THIS COMPANY DAY IN AND DAY OUT REGASRDING THE DISPUT PROCESS AND THE STATUS. THE INL RESPONSE I APPEAR TO KEEP GETTING FROM THEM IS WHAT APPEARS TO BE A SYSTEM GENERATED EMAIL CONSTANTLY ASKED ME FOR THE SAME ADDITIONAL INFO OVER AND OVER AGAIN ( I WILL ATTACH A COPY OF THE EMAILS. ) THEY DO NOT HAVE A CONTACT # TO TALK TO AN ACTUAL PERSON AND IT SEEMS AS IF THERE IS NO LIVE PERSON HANDLING EMAILS AS WELL. I TRUSTED THIS COMPANY WITH HANDLING OF MY MONEY AND I AM EXTREMELY UPSET THAT NO ONE HAS REACHED BACK OUT TO ME REGARDING THESE FRAUDULENT CHARGES. HOW CAN YOU AS A COMPANY ALLOW SOMEONE TO MAKE SEVERAL TRANSACTIONS BACK TO BACK TO BACK IMMEDIATELY AFTER HACKING INTO SOMEONES ACCOUNT AND TURNING OFF THERE SECURITY SETTINGS WITHOUT SUSPECTING FRAUD. IN THE EMAIL I RECEIVED BACK FROM THE COMPANY, THEY ASKED ME TO REQUEST A REFUND FROM THE PERSON WHOM IT WAS SENT TO, WHICH I DID AS REQUESTED WITH NO PROGRESS. How do you expect for a thief to refund something that was intentionally stolen. I am a single parent of 4 and I am extremely upset. I do not no this person that the money was sent to, I did not send my money to this person. All of my security setting were turned on, I have an XXXX w/ face recognition therefore I dont no how your company allowed someone to hack into my account from a device thats not even mines and disable my security setting to even be able to steal my money. I just dont understand it, Im irritated, frustrated, I feel violated and I feel like I was robbed

XX/XX/20- XXXX XXXX {$3000.00} I had direct deposits on Monday XX/XX/XXXX of about {$4000.00} for my unemployment in MN, {$400.00} and tried to withdraw more money and received a messwger " you reached {$1000.00} daily limit '', the next day Tuesday XXXX XXXX i made a purchase for {$350.00} but was still unable to withdraw funds. On Wed XX/XX/XXXX i still could n't take money out atm so I XXXX Cash Ap support and found website ** https : //cashappcustomerservice.com/ ** And on the website was a # XXXX and when I called they told me they needed to verify my Cash Ap account to lift withdraw limits. I was then told to open support on Cash Ap then download an ap called " Quick Support '' from XXXX XXXX then " add on-XXXX '' both aps logos containing a white circle with blue horizontal arrows. After i downloaded the aps they told me to turn off security lock from settings ( part of verification process ) they then had remote access over my Cash Ap, i watched on my phone as they toggled settings. They linked a XXXX XXXX XXXX account then assured it was Cash Aps bank and part of verification process. He told me I'd be getting a new cash ap card and daily limits would be removed. They told me to hold on then i eventually called that number back XXXX and it was a Text Now #. I tried to log back into my Cash Ap with phone number and was having to type name as if a new account. I used my email and logged in, my phone number XXXX | XXXX | XXXX were all deleted from my account and there was an odd mixture of # 's and letters for email which i didnt have time to write because i was hurrying to reconnect my information before i lost account. I went to email and saw that all {$3000.00} had been deposited into a XXXX XXXX XXXX account and that a card ending with XXXX had been disconnected ( the thief 's card most likely ) i contacted Cash App immediately via support and XXXX, ( case # : XXXX ) I went to the XXXX police station on XXXX XXXX XXXX and I called The FBI - XXXX office. My money was stolen, ( {$3000.00} ) please have it returned to $ XXXX, i have my email and phone reconnected and enabled security lock on my account again so I'm not worried about another theft. Please resolve this issue as soon as possible, this was all the money I have. Thank you - XXXX " XXXX XXXX '' XXXX

On XXXX XXXX. I logged into My Cash App. I havent used it in a while, but I was going to pay someone back for some tickets I had received. I thought I was to send payment to $ XXXX, so I entered XXXX, pay, and $ XXXX user name came up in the choices when I typed in just a few letters. I have not paid this user before, and it did not occur to me that it wasnt him. After I submitted the payment, a few minutes later, I received an email to the address associated with my account, which stated : $ XXXX had collected his payment. I assumed all was well. The next day, I hear that I was supposed to have paid $ XXXX. I promptly tried to contact the incorrect person who stole my money. This person had to actually select an option to pull the money that was not theirs, into their account. This constitutes fraud. To knowingly take money that is not yours. The party I was supposed to have paid alerted me that they didnt receive the payment. I then realized the mistake, and paid the correct party. He had mentioned I just needed to contact Cash App and they can cancel the incorrect payment. First, I tried to submit a request to $ XXXX to send my money back, with a note saying I had sent it in error. I received a notification of declined from this stranger. I went to request the payment again, and they have blocked me. On XX/XX/XXXX, I reached out via email to Cash Apps support listed on the internet. Here is the string of emails we sent back and forth. It is beyond my understanding why Cash Apps would not help me get this money back. If the party that stole it, did so in error, they deserved to be helped, if they did it on purpose and knew all they had to do to get rid of me, was to block me, then that is wrong too! I know XXXX from Cash Apps customer service, was just telling me what he thought he had to. I honestly believe that Cash Apps owes it to their customers ( me ) to at least reach out to the incorrect party and request that they return the money that they applied to their account in error. I contacted my own bank where the funds were drawn from to pay CASH APPS ; and they said I had to contact the 3rd party vendor, which is CASH APPS/Square. I was given a XXXX prefixed number ( XXXX ) that took me in a phone tree loop, and I was not able to speak to anyone at that number.

On XX/XX/XXXX, my card suddenly stopped working due to unusual activity. I accepted it because I recently joined an XXXX XXXX XXXX and have been placing multiple orders. The people in the group also noted their banks have done the same. I simply reached out To Cash Apps support team via the app and let them know that the card was being used by me and to please unlock the account. On XX/XX/XXXX, I tried to send the balance to my account and kept getting the Cashout failed error. However l, the cashout I did on XX/XX/XXXX was successfully deposited into my account that evening. My boyfriends birthday was the next and I wanted to send him some cash and found that i was still able to send money from my bank account just not My Cash App balance. I also began to follow them on XXXX and saw that I was not the only one with problems accessing the funds on Cash App. On XX/XX/XXXX, I Sent a few messages on XXXX asking them to please look into my account. No response was given. On XX/XX/XXXX, I received an email stating my name on the account did not match my unemployment deposits. I knew that couldn't be right and I sent in the documents asked for the same day. My name did in fact match my deposits. Later that evening I saw on XXXX that someone else received the same exact email word for word and upon further investigation there were dozens of others receiving that email. I also received more deposits to my account form Unemployment ( backpay ) and they successfully were deposit however, I have no access to the funds. I reached out again over the next few days to Cash app via the app, on XXXX in XXXX as well as their direct messages. Cash app does not have live support and is hard to get ahold of. It seems they are sending out automated messages to their clients and not actually addressing the issue. As of Today XX/XX/XXXX, I have {$1900.00} in the account and can not access it. Another deposit should be scheduled soon and there will be more money I can not touch. I have bills to pay and can not send the funds to my linked bank account but Cash app will gladly allow me to add. This is unacceptable as we are in the middle of a pandemic and funds are desperately needed. They advertised using their direct deposit but have however made it difficult for those who decided to use it.

On XX/XX/XXXX @ XXXX this person cashapped me {$500.00}, which I was expecting because we were in a group, she gifted me my {$500.00} as expected along with others. Then on XXXX XXXX I received a notice from Cashapp that stated they were refunding the {$500.00} that was gifted to me over 2 months ago because she filed a dispute. Why? When I received this noticed I contacted my bank XX/XX/XXXX after work about XXXX, I left a message with the customer service explaining the situation, it was late and they were closed but she will put a note in and they will return my call tomorrow morning XX/XX/XXXX, by then cashapp had already started deducting my {$500.00} from my bank account. I tried contacting cashapp as the bank had ask me along with unlinking my bank information until I find out what was going on. Cashapp does not have a number to call for customer service but in their terms and conditions they do. I tried calling all of the different numbers but to no avail, no one answers, one automatically hangs up with a beeping sound, and one talks about military loans and things etc., So I found an email option, I emailed cashapp ( XX/XX/XXXX ) and ask them if they can give me some clarity to what was going on and why they took {$500.00} from my banking account? I then received an email from cashapp stating my account is closed. Also stating after reviewing my transfers of funds they stated I was in violation of their terms. I don't understand that also, I did nothing illegal to have my account closed, I also have {$130.00} in there that now I don't have access to or can't get. I'm confused about this whole cashapp situation and would like for my {$500.00} to be returned because I did not steal it! And would also like to have access to my remaining money in my cashapp account. Cashapp did not contact me at all about anything, ( you would think they would if they said it was a dispute, a dispute consist of more than 1 person ). This transaction ( gift as stated in the memo ) took place over 2 months ago and for them to think it is ok to go into someone account and take their money with no communication whatsoever, and then close your account keeping the money that is in there!! I will be waiting to hear from cashapp so I know how to proceed with this situation. Thank you

I have had a Cash App account since XXXX. It is rare that I have to dispute transactions with it but it seems like since the pandemic, lots of merchants are being downright ruthless, shady, and FRAUDULENT. Historically, disputes were a pretty seamless process. There's an option in the app to dispute transactions, of course Cash App recommends trying to resolve these disputes with the merchant directly. I have always done that BEFORE contacting Cash App Support. Recently, I had 3 transactions I needed to dispute for varying reasons. Cash App support has been non-responsive and as such, I am handling these disputes with the CFPB. 2 transactions are from XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. I have their mobile app. Several times now I have ordered in the mobile app ( where it charges as soon as you place the order ), and then when I GOT to the restaurant, it was CLOSED. But I had already been charged and the funds have not been refunded. I have had this same issue with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX before, but never have I ever been accused by the store manager of lying and making it all up. That's what happened with I tried to handle it directly with the store where the purchase was made. That process was described to Cash App support in vivid detail. They have simply stopped responding to my messages about those refunds. The other transaction was for a software purchase I made online. It was made on XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX. I was trying to order a software program called XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ). It was a program that claimed to make the process of mounting XXXX XXXX to a XXXX drive easily. I needed to do this to wipe off an old computer and reinstall the operation system so I could sell it. The purchase was supposed to be for a product key that was supposed to UNLOCK the program from the trial mode to the full version. The key I was given DID NOT WORK. I emailed their support and they did NOT respond. So I disputed the transaction with Cash App and this time, they did not respond at all. So for clarity, with the XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX purchases, they DID respond, but have since stopped responding and my refunds have not been issued. For the XXXX XXXX XXXX purchase, their support has literally not responded AT ALL despite me initiating the dispute process in-app at least 5 times.

This issue concerns a Cash App transaction. My daughter and I use Cash App to send money to each other. My Cash App account is linked to my XXXX debit card for a checking account at XXXX XXXX XXXX in Connecticut. I initiated a transaction to send her {$100.00} on XX/XX/XXXX. I immediately decided to cancel the transaction, and canceled/ reversed it. Cash App labeled the transaction as Reversed. The {$100.00} was instantly taken out of my checking account at XXXX, and shows there on my bank statement. It was never put back in. Cash App customer service claimed that the money was sent back to XXXX on XXXX XXXX at XXXX XXXX and they should have it. I called XXXX, and they painstakingly went through ALL electronic fund transactions made on the XXXX, XXXX and XXXX. There was no return transaction. On XX/XX/XXXX, I went to XXXX and submitted an official written claim for the {$100.00} because Cash App still maintained that they had sent the funds. XXXX was kind enough to refund {$100.00} pending their investigation ( I have been a customer there since the XXXX ). On XX/XX/XXXX, I received a letter from XXXX saying that their investigation had determined that they were not liable for the claim. They took back the {$100.00} they had provisionally given me. In the course of their investigation, they were told by Cash App that the money had already been given to me and was sitting in my Cash App account as a stored balance. ( Again, Cash App had originally said the money went to XXXX ) There is no money stored in my Cash App account. There has never been any money refunded to me. The {$100.00} is in limbo somewhere. I have repeatedly contacted the Cash App customer support department, and have received the same response from 4 different people : " File a claim with your bank. '' I have told them many times that I already did that. I have asked for them to call me. I have asked for a supervisor to contact me. That has never happened. There is no published telephone number for them. My advice to others would be 1 ) never make {$100.00} transactions -- they are too common and too difficult to trace ( send {$100.00} instead ) ; 2 ) do not try to reverse a Cash App transaction -- instead, get the other person to initiate a new transaction and send your money back.

Good day, On XX/XX/2019 at XXXX the company " Cash App '' send me a message stating that a {$500.00} payment to my account was being disputed and that they were removing {$500.00} from my personal checking account. I was not given a warning about the removal or given a chance to protest it or speak on it at all. This was a very troubling moment for me, as I did not know I would be losing {$500.00} with no warning. I have emailed their support team several time since the incident, but have gotten no real response. There is a automatically generated message that gets sent to me stating that " Hi XXXX, Thanks for contacting Cash Support. We have received your inquiry and will respond within 24 hours. If you have any further information you'd like to provide you can respond directly to this email. Thank you, Cash Support '' There is no number to call to get in touch with a live person to get help, so I am stuck continuously emailing and getting no real response. When I try to follow up with another email they tell me that my case has been closed because they did not hear from me, but I never received an email from them to respond to. Below, I am including the message I have sent to them several times that includes my case number and all of the details associated with my account that are needed to identify myself and the disputed transaction. " I have been trying to get help from your team with this issue for over two weeks now. I have received no follow up communication. My case # : XXXX. The transaction described below was refunded from my bank account without warning and I had {$500.00} taken from me from Cash App. I didn't know the transaction was being disputed or that there was any issue at all. This was a very troubling experience for me as i had {$500.00} taken from me without warning. I have emailed several times about this issue, but have not heard anything back. How can this be solved? My cashtag : XXXX XXXX XXXX Sender : XXXX XXXX Reciver : XXXX XXXX Identifier : # XXXX Date : XX/XX/2019 XXXX '' The files I am attaching to this complaint are all of the messages that have been sent between myself and Cash App. I also sent several messages to them through the app, but they do not provide a paper trail for those message so I do not have them.

Met a person through reddit who agreed to sell me a game console and games. We agreed to use cashapp as the money transferring service. Upon sending the funds, the person ghosted me and never sent tracking, shipped anything out, refunded me ect. I've contacted cashapp multiple times about the issue in an attempt to get my money refunded. Everytime they give me the same generic excuse. I try to show them info that shows the person in question ghosting me and they say they " don't need that info ''. How can you run a money transfer service and offer no help in regards to getting a persons money back? If the transaction was made on your site and I have proof to show that nothing was received on my end, why would you not investigate the situation in an attempt to retrieve my funds? I marked the transaction as a scam and put in a request to receive my money back. When I called cashapp on the phone to get an idea of how that process works and what exactly they do in order to retrieve the funds, they made it sound as if they had no actual intention of trying to do so. In which case, why include a message stating that your looking into getting my money back upon filing for a refund on the item if that's not actually the intention? As for dates and times, I initiated the transaction on XX/XX/XXXX. The person was supposed to ship on XX/XX/XXXX. After 2 days of no response, I contact cashapp through chat on XX/XX/XXXX. As stated above, they were no help. Called them as well on either XX/XX/XXXX or XX/XX/XXXX which as I stated above, also amounted to nothing. The amount in question is for {$95.00} total. I included screen shots of the conversation with the person as well as my final message to him on the XXXX which he still hasn't replied to. Also showcased his last activity on reddit which was 8 days ago, the same day I sent him the money. This person ran off the second they got paid =/ Included pics as well of my cashapp account " XXXX XXXX' as well as the thiefs cashapp " $ XXXX '' Also showed the refund request which will supposedly be responded to by XX/XX/XXXX but you've already told me on the phone that those are mainly to flag scammers and don't actually help much in getting the money back so not sure what good waiting till that day would do me

I used the payment processor Squareup.com to process payments for my ecommerce businesses in XX/XX/XXXX. I only processed transactions through square on XX/XX/XXXX through XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX, I received an email from Squareup informing me that my deposits had been suspended because they needed more information from me, including bank statements, invoices and my web site address to fully verify my account. I was told I could do so in my squareup dashboard. Before I even had a chance to respond to this inquiry, I received another email on XX/XX/XXXX that my account was being terminated completely due to a pattern of high risk transactions. The email said I would receive the money from my active transactions in the normal pay out time frame, which is one to two business days, At this time there was over {$35000.00} in my account. After several days of not receiving the funds, I submitted the documents they originally requested. I received an email that I would hear back in two business days. After not hearing from for a week, I made contact with them several times. When I called, I simply received a recording that my active was deactivated and I would get my funds on the date outline in the email. But there was no email with any date, other then the first email which I said I would get my pay out immediately. In order to bypass the recording, I created a new account to call customer service. The agent was confused about the status of my account and attempted several time to reach the appropriate team. He told me to send another email and they would response by the end of the day, even though I had not hear back for weeks, I am attaching two emails I sent to their customer service, on XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX asking about my funds. This is in addition to numerous emails I sent through their web contact form which I don't have a record of. Finally, today, on XX/XX/XXXX, I received an email from their account services team telling me that they can not reactivate my account. But I wasn't asking for my account to be re-activated I just want the funds that are in it. I replied and told them this, I still have no idea when they plan to release my money. They are currently holding {$23000.00} in active funds and {$10000.00} which are in disputes.

On Friday XX/XX/XXXX I received a text message indicating that my father sent me {$20.00} through Cash App. I clicked on the link to receive the money and it took me to download the app. Once the app was downloaded I went through the process of signing in. at one point it asked me to confirm the card number XXXX. I did not recognize this as the last 4 digits of any of my cards so I chose whatever option was at the bottom of the screen indicating that I was not able to complete this task. The app then took me through the process of what I realized after was creating a new account. After this was completed I went back to the original text I had received to accept the {$20.00} and I was informed that the money was already claimed however the {$20.00} is not in the account I had just created. When I informed my father of this he confirmed that when he went to send me the money it indicated to him that I already had an account. In the process of setting up the new account it asked me to enter my debit card number, it was through doing this that I realized the " XXXX '' was actually the FIRST 4 digits of my debit card, therefore this also indicates that I already had an account prior to the one I had just set up. I contacted Cash App that same morning via an online customer support message. I did not receive a message back until the next day, Saturday XX/XX/XXXX. I responded to the message from XXXX and included as much of the information she was requesting as possible. I did not receive another message back until Monday XX/XX/XXXX and that message was from XXXX, asking for similar information. I replied to this email and did not hear back again until yesterday XX/XX/XXXX from yet another person, XXXX, again asking for the same information that I explained in the previous emails that I did not have. I called Cash App yesterday and spoke with a customer service representative and explained my frustration with the email communication and requested to speak with one person to resolve the issue. She instructed me that I would need to communicate via email for security reasons. I asked to speak with her manager and she was unable to connect me with a manager. No one is able to provide an answer or explanation as to where the {$20.00} went.

2 transactions from Cash App were fraud. A person was impersonating as a social media influencer/to be somebody else who performs reading services which resulted in me losing {$130.00}. My bank XXXX somewhat tried to dispute the charges but Cashapp barely tried to investigate the matter which resulted in my bank having no choice but to close it out. I never received the services and my bank advised me to take care of this with Cashapp who refuse reinvestigate and closed out my Cashapp account without prior notice. Please keep in mind of the following : I have claims against Cashapp for violations of the Electronic Fund Transfer Act ( EFTA ), 15 U.S.C. 1693, et seq., Cashapp unlawfully required a host of information to be provided as a condition precedent of opening or investigating a dispute or resolving a dispute in a consumers favor. The EFTA requires that a bona fide investigation be conducted once a bare minimum of information is provided by the consumer. Cashapps error resolution process violates the EFTA by explicitly placing the burden of proving the unauthorized transfer on the consumer ( and denying disputes on grounds that the consumer has not met his or her burden of proving that the transaction was unauthorized ). The EFTA requires the opposite, providing that Cashapp is liable for allegedly unauthorized disputes where Defendants can not show that the transaction was in fact authorized. cash app error resolution process also violates the EFTA because it deny claims without providing any explanation or providing to the consumer the documents Cashapp reviewed during the investigation. Both an explanation of the denial and a notice of the right to request these materials are required under the statute. The EFTA places sharp limitations on consumer liability for unauthorized transactions. For example, If the consumer notifies the financial institution within two business days after learning of the loss or theft of the access device, the consumers liability shall not exceed the lesser of {$50.00} or the amount of unauthorized transfers that occur before notice to the financial institution.. 12 CFR Sec. 1005.6 ( Liability of consumer for unauthorized transfers ). See, 15 U.S. Code 1693g ( Consumer liability ). 20

I was selling an XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX on the XXXX XXXX on XXXX about three weeks ago. I submitted the condition of the phone, the name of the phone and the asking price for the phone. One particular consumer submitted interest in the phone and stated that he wanted to purchase it. Upon further conversation through XXXX, we both agreed on the details for the purchase of the phone, which was {$700.00} USD and that once the consumer submitted his address to where the phone was to be shipped to, I would then take the phone to the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, have it mailed off and then submit a photo copy of the receipt and tracking number to the Cash App Center to have my funds submitted to my account. I held up EVERY aspect of my side of the commitment to the selling and delivery of the phone and I have yet to this day, received any money for my phone. I received an email from Cash App stating that they have submitted money to my account and I HAVE NOT RECEIVED ANY FUNDS! Further more, Cash App then stated that the reason for the delay of my not receiving any money was due to the fact that the denomination of money was too low for me to receive any money. So then Cash App claimed to have gotten in touch with the buyer of the phone and to inform him of this problem and that the buyer would need to submit at least {$500.00} more USD in order for me to receive any money. I was then told that the buyer had done so and submitted the extra money requested and required for me to receive any money. Then I was told that I needed to refund the extra {$500.00} USD back to the buyer of the phone in order to receive the original {$700.00} USD. I have never received NOT ONE SINGLE PENNY OF ANY MONEY AT ALL! And now I have been threatened by the buyer and Cash App about this ordeal and told that I would be sued and sent to prison for this. I have also received a threat by email from what was supposed to be the FBI, stated that I need to relinquish the funds or be sent to prison. I truly believe that this is all a fraudulent attempt at obtaining a free phone from me and that the whole ordeal was fraudulent! I believe that the Cash-App statements are false and that the FBI emails are false. I don't know how to go about proving this and need help in this matter.

On XXXX at XXXX there was a charge from my Cash App card for XXXX that o did not make or authorize and at XXXX another unauthorized payment was taken from my account for XXXX. Both unauthorized usage went to XXXX Store in XXXX, Texas. I tried reaching the merchant by phone but they only have a chat support service. I did the consumer chat service and explained why I was calling they told me that they show no charges for the money I reported was to XXXX Store. I called Cash App again and reported what the merchant told me. Cash App sent me a long list of things that I needed to file with them for my case. I promptly fill out their needed information and sent it to them completed. That was done on XXXX, now today XXXX they sent me another long list which asking if I filed a police report. I did contact the police here in XXXX, Texas where I live and filed a report but Cash App wanted a copy of the report in full detail sent to them also. The police told me that they have never heard of a company request for a copy of a report sent to them. But the policeman gave me his name, badge number and phone number and me to give Cash App this information and they could call him and hell give them the information they need about the report. But I cant reach Cash App to give them the answer to what the policeman told me because a recording from each time I called says that they have a high volume of calls and to request a call back to the number I dialed from. Well I did that and they did call and asked me what problems I was having. I told them about what was happening and I wanted an update on the case I file with them concerning my money missing from my Cash App account but the phone went silent and I got no response from them after asking was they still there 3 times I hung up. Social Security is all I get and to have this money fraudulently and unauthorized taken from me is very serious, they took all of the XXXX cents I deposited in my Cash App account and now they seem to be ignoring me or sending me more questions about why I need to fill out more paperwork. I need help retaining my money back from my Cash App Visa Card. I have a medical trip out of State and that money is needed badly for this medical trip. Please help me.

I tried to switch back to my original debit card through the Square Cash app multiple times ( I would get an error message that I was only allowed to fund from one particular debit card ). My account was then frozen because of an issue with their platform and no fault of my own. I ended up having to verify my identity, which I did. I was told to wait 24 hours, but ended up having to wait a full 2 weeks since my account was frozen after following up on XXXX and XXXX as they were ignoring my emails. When they did reply with an email, it was a generic response that had nothing to do with the issue at hand ( about adding funds to the account, which was not the issue ) They replied with the following email : " Hello, Thank you for reaching out. We are writing to inform you that your Cash account has been closed and is no longer able to send or receive payments. Reasons for this decision may include your account history, transaction disputes, or other possible violations of the Cash Terms of Service. If you need to Cash Out your stored balance, you may link a new card or bank account. Additionally, you may re-link a card or bank account previously used with your Cash account. Within the app : Open the Cash App and tap the dollar amount at the top of the screen. Tap Cash Out > Confirm Cash Out. Once you have cashed out the balance, it will deposit within 1-3 business days. Unfortunately, we can not provide further details regarding this decision, which is final. We appreciate your understanding. Best regards, XXXX | Cash Support '' I didn't violate any terms of service, nor did I dispute any transactions. The only thing I've done is try to switch my debit card back to my original bank. When attempting to withdraw funds as suggested in the previous email, an error messages shows up and says that the transaction can not be completed. Like all the other times that I've had to contact the Support team, I've been lied to and things occur on an entirely unreasonable timeline and the customer service was either poor or did not exist. Their own timelines were never met, and they never addressed the issues on their platform. They then closed my account with no explanation given with the most generic message available.

1. Interested in purchasing cryptocurrency. CashApp based in XXXX XXXX, CA ADVERTISED ease of buying Bitcoin, as well as transferring the cryptocurrency to others or your own wallet for free. 2. WAS easiest method I have found to buy Bitcoin, true. Starting XXXX, added {$250.00} to CashApp, and continued adding $ and buying BTC over the next couple months, worked GREAT, SUPER HAPPY. XXXX. NOT TRUE was that you could transfer the BTC out whenever/wherever you liked. 4. CashApp REALLY wants you to keep 'your ' Bitcoin with them, NOT transfer it out. When you try to transfer BTC, they block you from doing so. ( DO NOT SAY any message like that, just that the 'transfer failed '. IT DIDN'T 'FAIL ', CASHAPP BLOCKED IT. ). 4. When you ask why they blocked transfer, they cancel your account. 5.They offer no explanations, do not answer direct questions in support forums, whether email or chat, and have NO phone contact. 6.So, instead of transferring MY BITCOIN to MY WALLET, I had to sell MY BTC in order to transfer it out of the closed CashApp account back to my bank account. ( XXXX cashed BTC out. ) 7. When I went to transfer the cash balance ( {$3000.00} total ) back to my original back account, I was limited ( by Florida statutes CashApp said ) to only {$3000.00} per week, or something. OnXX/XX/XXXX, I transferred {$2500.00} back to the bank account successfully ( after a week or so to show up ). 8. Then when I went to transfer the remaining {$580.00} balance, CashApp blocked me doing so,. ( AGAIN, there is NO explanation given when the app does so, it just 'does n't work ' ) .9. After contacting CashApp support, they declared my account THEY TOOK ALL MY MONEY FROM was somehow 'fraudulent ', and they were demanding I link ANOTHER ACCOUNT to them in order to transfer out the remaining {$580.00} OF MY MONEY. 10. GIVEN how they had lied to me, and were trying to steal my money, I wrote back that there was NO WAY I was going to link a new account to them, and to either send it back to the bank account they were very happy to take it from, or issue me a paper check for the {$580.00}, but NO WAY I was linking a new account to those lying snakes. They did NOT answer that email or any subsequent emails telling them the same fact.

So i applied for my stimulus check and the irs accepting it and i used my Cashapp routing and account info for direct deposit. The irs web portal says my direct deposit was scheduled to be deposited in my Cashapp account XX/XX/2020 and as of today XX/XX/2020 i still have not recieved it. Ive reached out to Cashapp via email only to get automated responses which were of no help at all, also direct messaged and tweeted on their page Cashapp and Cashapp support via XXXX, and i get responses from their so called support but nothing that helps or even them tryin to do anything bout it. Ive also been researching this and this seems to be only Cashapp customers hvn this same issue and also not getting any help at all from Cashapp to resolve it. People are saying their account numbers changing overnight with their cashapp accounts that they dont ask for or do themselves. And i also found out that Cashapps app says they use XXXX XXXX for their accounts and cards they send out to people but the stimulus direct deposits are not goin through that bank, theyre bein deposited into XXXX XXXX XXXX to Cashapp. And i was also supposed to be mailed another card a week or so ago but the card never arrived even tho cashapp app says it did, and when i reported it lost and requested for a new card, they say they can not send me another, yet, my stimulus direct deposit is supposed to go to that account and card. It doesnt add up and seems like cashapp is withholding my stimulus money and thousands of other ppls money or theyre just flat out stealing it. Either way its not right and alot of ppl hve lost their homes due to this, myself being one of those ppl. From what i understand, cashapp has 5 business days to deposit money or they start recieving fines, well, its been way longer than 5 business days. I just want my money and for cashapp to release everyone elses money theyre holding or for something to be done about it some other way. Im so irritated with dealing with Cashapps XXXX and almost ready to go to the darker side of the web and spend a lil money and let a hacker get my money bck for me, but im trying to do this the legal and right way first. Plse help. Ill provide whatever info yall request of me that i hve if it helps. Ty.

At about XXXX on XX/XX/2020, I was trying to sign into my XXXX account and I was unable too, after several attempts I was unsuccessful, it then dawned on me someone had gained access to my email and changed the password, I was able to successfully retrieve my email address and change the password, once I fully gained access to my email, I then recalled i had received a text message earlier in the day stating my phone number had been disassociated with my cashtag, I never paid attention to the text message, I had assumed it was junk text, however, due to the incident with my email i immediately login to my bank account, and to my surprise, a total of {$6000.00} had been withdrawn from my account, a transaction not authorized by me. I immediately started looking for a phone number to contact cashapp, to my dismay they do not have a phone number and the only way I could contact them was via email, i proceed to send an email to cashapp right away making them aware of the fraud and i was no longer in control of my chashtag, the next day I was hoping to have received a response from cashapp since the issue in question has to do with fraud, being a financial company I expected issue like this will be treated with high priority, cashapp finally responded 24hrs later, in the time it took them to respond, I had someone send me {$470.00} to my cashtag account, this was after I reported the incident already to cashapp. the email from cashapp ( XXXX : ref ) asked me to provide some information, which I did, I waited for another week and contacted cashapp again requesting for an update, to my surprise cashapp claimed from their investigation, I gave my cashapp information to a 3rd party ( which i never did ) and there was nothing they could do about missing funds, and my best option was to dispute it with my bank, I sent a response back to cashapp requesting to know what happened to the {$470.00} that was sent to me after i had already reported the fraud, their response was the money is lost, and there was nothing they could do about it. I'm attaching evidence to show proof my email was hacked, also proof of funds taken from my bank account, finally additional funds sent to my cashapp account after I reported the fraud

I recently had fraud done to my acct. I purchase 2 XXXX. the first on a web site call XXXX XXXX {$150.00} XX/XX/2020 & the other off XXXX XXXX {$130.00} XX/XX/2020. Cash app states on there portal that if we detect fraud being done to contact them immediately. I did everything they asked me to do even requested the refund from the 2 people who I made the purchase with. The first guy he never responded leaving the acct in refund status and the other guy decline immediately. I sent all supporting documentation to cash app only to get the run around. I then tried to dispute the charges with my bank only for them to tell me they do not assist with 3rd party payers. I then contact each web site I purchase the items off. XXXX XXXX & XXXX XXXX. let go said they do not assist with refunds and offer up said because I used a 3rd party payer they can not assist me. I then contact Cash App through the portal. After numerous email back & forth I finally asked for manager to speak to the rep by pass the question and gave me am automated response. I have all email trails to support this as well. I have been going back an forth with different reps only to get the same responses. I am out of {$280.00}. Someone is responsible for this. Cash app ask for SS # and a physical address. They need to go after the people who committed this crime. I know if this was my bank they would have refunded the money and went after the people who did this. I need help in this matter. So far I have did a police report, contact XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX XXXX, & XXXX XXXX. I wish I did my homework before using the app. I know they created this for a good purpose but there are people making it bad and nothing being done about it. I feel they are supporting the crime because the accounts are still active and running. This is not right and something needs to be done. Due to all the bad reviews I have seen on different web sites I have unlinked and deactivated the account at this time due to people have money disappearing out there acct. I can't chance loosing money. I work hard for my money and for them to allow this behavior and not crack down. I think it need to be shut down for this reason. Please let me know how I can go about getting my money back.

On XX/XX/2020, a friend ( XXXX XXXX ) asked if I would accept a transfer of {$100.00} from his friend ( XXXX XXXX ) then withdraw the funds using my CashApp card and give {$100.00} cash to XXXX. I saw no reason to object and completed the transaction as described. On XX/XX/2020 XXXX asked me to do the same, and so a second transaction for {$100.00} was completed. A week or more later, I was informed by CashApp that the sender had filed a dispute with his credit card issuer and that CashApp had issued a " refund '' to XXXX with no authorization from me. What's more, because there were no funds in my CashApp account, CashApp helped itself to funds in my linked checking account with XXXX. All of this was done without my knowledge or authorization. Again, the sender disputed the transactions initiated from his account ( CashApp has refused any further information on the nature of the dispute ) and requested a refund, which CashApp issued with no due diligence, no inquiry, no notice, no permission. I now suspect a scam with my friend XXXX ( and arguably CashApp ) a willing participant. XXXX first feigned surprise and assured me he would sort it out immediately. He then assured me that a mistake had been made, that XXXX did not intend to dispute the transaction and that somehow in trying to correct his mistake, XXXX had accidentally disputed the second transaction. This sort of chaotic response is typical. Next, when I pressed for an update, I was cast as the wrongdoer and XXXX ( who ended up with the money! ) cast as the victim. Again, familiar patterns of behavior. It's XX/XX/XXXX and no one is working to recover my {$200.00}. XXXX initiated the scam. XXXX has the money but has no connection with CashApp and no longer returns my phone calls. CashApp accepts no responsibility. They are hostile, insisting that I should work this out with the sender. I have no way to contact the sender and CashApp refuses any further assistance, and offers veiled threats of account closure for troublemakers like me. Clearly, I need to choose better friends but where was my miscalculation of risk? It seems my expectation that CashApp would take reasonable steps to protect my interests when handling my funds was ill-founded.

Two weeks later on XX/XX/2019 XXXX was removed from my linked bank account by cash app without my knowledge or authorization. XXXX of my money was now missing. It was taken out of my linked bank account and was not returned or found in my cash app account. I got in touch with cash app support to report the issue in hopes to get my money back. I have been transferred to numerous amounts of people who did not understand this issue and kept telling me that the money was successfully put into my account on XXXX XXXX disregarding the problem that the money was taken out of my account two weeks later and I no longer have my money. When I emailed cash app support that understood my situation, instead of helping me they kept telling me to go to my bank. They told me that I had to dispute the transaction with my bank. I kept going to my bank and they told me they could not help me because cash app removed the money. Finally, my bank disputed the transaction in hopes cash app would help me. The bank followed through with the investigation and confirmed that cash app has rejected the payment of XXXX on XXXX XXXX and reversed the payment on XXXX XXXX. However, I never got my money back in cash app. When I informed a cash app support member of the situation they asked for screenshots and continued to tell me that the money was put into my account on XXXX XXXX disregarding once again the real issue. When I spoke to someone else they informed me that cash app has no record of this amount being taken out of my account on XXXX XXXX and they continue to tell me to speak to my bank. If my bank was able to figure out that cash app rejected and returned my money, then cash app has that information too and is unwilling to give me my money back. This has been going on for the past three months. I have attached the string of emails from cash app and myself, I also provided the information from my bank, and the screenshot from my statement showing on XXXX XXXX cash app took XXXX out of my account. Please review all of the attachments.

I received a text from my financial institute, telling me that I made a purchase from a department store. I called my bank to dispute the purchase. The bank told me that I needed to call the instatute that approved the payment. I called the number to XXXX, that was listed on the web. The repesenitive listen to my store, then told me that yes, there is some fragilant activity on my account, and they need to save my finacial account. the impersonator then told me to down load a app on my cell phone in order to open up a security app, which I found out later was a XXXX app, that allows one to come in and see everything on your desk top. They then had me to open up my banking account. Explaining that I needed to protect my money, so they needed to transfer my money to a safe area, until they find out what happened, so that the hacker could not get to any more funds. they then asked if I had a cash app or any way to transfer money. they noticed the cash app, and had me open it. they then transfered all of my money from all of my banking accounts into the cash app, then sent it to other institutions, and cards.. by then my son had called me, they told me do not answer, because this would mess up the process, and my money would get lost. My son texted me though and told me that all of his money had dissapeared out of his account. then I knew something was not right. I immediately hung the phone up. I called the bank and they told me that yes, all of my money was transfered They also said that there was nothing they cold do because they are not affiliated with cash appI contacted CASH APP via email. They said that they will get back to me within in ten days, time enough to investigate. At this point, I don't even know if this was cash app that I was emailing, because I think that the XX/XX/XXXX impersonator got all of my information off of my phone and hacked my emails, intercepting my emails. I went on my cash app account to see what was going on. the transfers were still there as cashed out. I have not heard anything else as of yet. I have a police report, I have reported this matter to the Federal Trade commission. I have pics, however, I can not send them right now. My phone will not up load them.

On XX/XX/XXXX I contacted Cashapp via their chat support through their app. I submitted a dispute for a hotel stay I booked, but had to leave and did not stay because of the condition the room was in. The room advertised was not the room I was put in, was infested with roaches, and was under construction. XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX FL. I explained this in the dispute form. Since then I have asked 10 different dates for a status of the dispute, eight of those ten times I received auto responses stating they have escalated my dispute. Those dates are XXXX. The dates on XX/XX/XXXX are correct twice that day they said they escalated my dispute. On XX/XX/XXXX however prior to XX/XX/XXXX I received an email stating my case was closed because a response was provided or they have not heard from me in three business days. Lets back up a second, first they did not inform me this would go beyond the ten days for resolution, so they did state they had 45 days, yes that is true my 20 years of banking I do know that, however they did not offer or say they would provide me provisional credit for the time being. Correct me if I am wrong but does not REG EE state an institution can go beyond the 10 days I think it is to 45 days provided they offer provisional credit to the customer? I have no such offer. They have still not resolved this and all I got is auto responses most of the time, responses from real agents but you can only communicate through chat. It takes two hours for them to respond, by then I am off to something else, by the time I read the message they left the chat box having me to start all over again. Their practices should definitely be reviewed, I know for a fact they should be in violation of federal regulations. Finally they responded with the response provided from the merchant citing, " the hold off debit card was removed, so we ( we being cashapp ) are not sure what is the issue? '' How about that was never my issue to begin with, how about they read the dispute and know what it is the process they have in place. If I am able to upload the chat box conversation just be prepared to be mortified on how they handle these disputes. The Cashapp reference number associated with my claim is XXXX

On XX/XX/20 I was transferring through my Cash App account {$500.00} from my XXXX XXXX account into my own Cash App account. After doing so the money never showed up into my cash app account. I then realized my money didn't go to my own account, but instead went into another person 's account. I immediately canceled the transaction, tried to call cash app ( the number is an automated system that refers to an email ) sent a support message to cash app through their help section of the app. I received an email confirming my cancellation request. I sent a help ticket to XXXX requesting a stop on the transfer. XXXX said they couldn't do anything until the transaction was no longer pending. I sent 2 more messages with no response to cash app. Finally, after the transaction posted and the transfer was complete cash app emailed me saying they know it's not the response I hoped for, but since the transaction is now complete they couldn't help me. Nevermind that the money was transferred unauthorized to a stranger 's account, nevermind I contacted them immediately, and I canceled the transaction. I requested a telephone number to speak with a person, and all they've done is email me saying they can't/wo n't help me. I filed a formal dispute through XXXX and am still waiting to hear from a manager. XXXX originally told me no they wouldn't help me because it wasn't completely unauthorized and that I'd have to go to cash app, but then I asked about being covered under the EFTA because I noticed the ERROR and contacted both XXXX and Cash App immediately and tried everything in my power to correct it, they sent me a form to fill out. Under Regulation E the EFTA States that '' if a consumer notifies an institution that an error involving an EFT has occurred, the institution must investigate and resolve the claim within specified deadlines. Errors covered by this requirement include unauthorized EFTs, incorrect EFTs, and the omission from an account statement of an EFT that should have been included. '' I'm getting no help on resolving this issue. My {$500.00} is in someone else 's account, and cash app is neither reversing the transaction to my XXXX account or to my cash app account. Please help me. Thank you

I made an instant Cash App Cash Out Transaction on XX/XX/2020 for my entire cash app balance, which was {$15000.00}, to my new bank account, and was assured that the withdrawal should be completed in 1-3 business days. After waiting 3 days and verifying that all the information was correct, I still had not received my funds. I contacted Cash App support and they refunded me my instant deposit fee of about XXXX XXXX but told me to continue waiting as my remaining funds still had not settle in my account, after reaching out to my bank they told me they received an alert from CashApp saying the funds were to be debited, but they were never released to them, my bank is with XXXX and I have never had any problems receiving money with them before. I reached back out to the Cash App support team and they sent me the XXXX Transaction Details, and instructed me to give XXXX the retrieval reference #, which I did, and XXXX escalated my case to their HQ, which has now informed me that the XXXX Transaction Details that Cash App support gave me is actually insufficient information, and XXXX is not able to locate my funds with that reference number, instead they are asking me for a # that should be recognizable by MasterCard, as the transaction was made on the XXXX ( XXXX ) issuer network, and they have convinced me that there was some kind of error made there. Both Cash App and XXXX use XXXX Debit cards so im confused as to what involvement XXXX might have, but at this point, almost two weeks later, I have received no viable response from Cash App as to what to do next. I was told by multiple Cash App agents that my case had been escalated, but still have not received any follow up. It seems as though it is impossible to speak to anybody over the phone and this entire situation as easily been one of the worst experiences of my life. I have desperately tried reaching out to Square HQ, XXXX XXXX, XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX, literally every company I know thats involved w/ Cash App to try to get to the bottom of this situation as I do not know who else to seek help from. To make matters worse, my Cash App account was closed about 3-4 days after my cash out but the funds never even hit my account!!

Hello, On XX/XX/2021, I received a cash app payment from my daughter in the amount of {$200.00}. I decided to cash out the funds back to my bank account. I also sent a {$20.00} donation to a friend as a donation for a food purchase for a family who lost their mom on yesterday. This morning neither transaction was showing in the Cash App. I also use this same platform to invest in stocks. Because my transactions from XX/XX/2021 still weren't showing, I checked my stocks and found that 94 % of my money was gone and the stocks selected for my investments were no longer showing on the platform, i.e., XXXX XXXX, XXXX, etc. On XX/XX/XXXX, I had a balance just over {$4100.00}. Today ( XX/XX/XXXX ), I have less than {$200.00}. I checked my stocks on the stock exchange to determine what happened in the market and found that there were no significant losses. Yet, my money is gone. In addition, the site does not show what my stock investments are, but does show my total invested amount and current balance as of the close of yesterday. I also make bi-weekly purchases for certain stocks, and those are not showing in my history. Ironically, there is a Bitcoin balance of {$92.00}, and I have never purchased Bitcoin. I can only assume that I have been hacked because nothing else makes sense. I did take photos of what is currently showing on the screen at different intervals during the day for XX/XX/2021. However, the site was showing balances for a timetable for today for afternoon transactions and yet it was only XXXX XXXX. when I checked my account balances this morning. I submitted an inquiry and was told someone would be in touch within 2 hours. I have not received a follow-up but in the interim I wanted this information regarding this scam to be published immediately. I realize there is risk when investing in the stock market. However, I have been participating for quite some time and understand the risks. I have lost a few dollars here and there, and that's to be expected. However, I am positive that I have been scammed because I don't show any significant losses on yesterday for my selected stocks. Any assistance you can provide is greatly appreciated. Best regards, XXXX XXXX

Throughout the months of XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, and XX/XX/XXXX, I was receiving payments from a friends. I had allowed this friend to borrow money and he was using his XXXX XXXX, which he had linked to his Cash App to send me money directly to my Cash App as repayment for the loan. On XX/XX/2018, however, I recevied a notification that this person, whose username is " XXXX '' on Cash App filed a dispute with their XXXX XXXX and that those funds would be refunded to him. On that day, I had several payments taken out of my account and returned to him, totaling {$3100.00}. After talking to him, he claimed he had no idea what was going on. We tried to resolve it but then, on XX/XX/2018, I again received notifications claiming that more payments were disputed and were being refunded, totaling another {$1300.00}, for a sum total of {$4500.00} between the two days. After further talking to XXXX, we realized that his father, who shares the card with him filed the dispute because he did not recognize the charge on the statement. Realizing his mistake and that the payments to me were indeed valid, he reversed the dispute with his XXXX XXXX. They then sent the funds back to my Cash App account between the middle to the end of XX/XX/XXXX. All the funds had been sent back by XX/XX/XXXX. Cash App, however, did not credit my account with these funds, even after trying to contact them numerous times. They do not have telephone support so everything must be done by email, which is extremely slow and frustrating. Finally, after several months, they did credit me for the {$1300.00} that was taken on XX/XX/XXXX but have yet to return the {$3100.00} that was taken on XX/XX/XXXX. I have talked with XXXX who has confirmed that the money was indeed send to Cash App. They have even sent me a letter that was sent to Mr. XXXX, who is XXXX 's father, that confirms the reversal of the dispute. I've tried contacting Cash App several time in the past few months, but they simply no longer reply. My emails get ignored. I've even submitted the letter to them. All I ask is that the {$3100.00} that was erroneously taken from me is credited to me now that it has been send back to Cash App from XXXX XXXX.

Not only was I unaware a Square account was in exsistence for me that was in collections I am also not connected with a company that is the owner of this debt. I was told the debt is 4 years old. I am just hearing if it and Square is wanting to prove my high school reunion is seperate. They wont allow me to speak to someone to sort this out. I was asked my social security number and told I must pay $ 2100+!? No rights, no letter and no proof they have me on some business document. Is this legal? They are going to take {$2000.00} from my reunion. I dont even know who or what the debt is. XX/XX/19 I get an emai that says they are debitung my bank account for over {$2000.00}. I call and speak to someone who cant see why. They email me that the matter is closed I need to pay or prove the accounts are not related. I got this email today. Hi XXXX, Weve confirmed that the account XXXX.XXXX associated with " XXXX '' is connected to XXXX. Article 15 of Squares Payment Terms allows Square to offset any funds you owe us with the balance of any other Square account connected to your business. Weve exercised our right to offset your dispute-related debits from the available funds in the connected account. This investigation is closed and the decision is final. If you would like us to reopen this investigation, please provide us with government-issued formation documentation that certifies the businesses associated with your two Square accounts as separate entities. As a result of the offset, a debit was initiated to your linked bank account in the amount of {$2200.00} on XX/XX/19. If your bank account doesnt have enough funds to cover this full amount, any withdrawn funds will be returned to your account per your banks schedule. Alternately, please respond to this email with a dollar amount that we can schedule to debit from your bank account to cover this negative balance on a weekly or monthly basis. Were not able to provide phone support for offset-related questions, but Im available to discuss this matter directly with you over email. Looking forward to hearing from you and helping you get your account back on track. Best, XXXX XXXX XXXX ref : XXXX : ref

On XX/XX/XXXX I sent an {$800.00} payment to a friends account on Cash App. Unfortunately it had been a few years since she used Cash App, and when she re downloaded the app she was unable to log in to the account I had sent the money to. She contacted support through the app and exchanged messages with over 10 robotic-seeming customer service advocates who kept asking her to prove her identity, which she did, but then was told information was incorrect or missing without explanation when it was not. On XXXX XX/XX/XXXX I began to contact Cash App in-app support for help refunding my money, since my friend was not gaining access to the account. I was shuffled between 8 different advocates who kept repeating the same thing, that they could not help me, and ignoring the content of my messages until finally my complaint was escalated to email support. Finally on XX/XX/XXXX a cash app support manager named XXXX emailed me saying he could not refund the payment and could only work with my friend, the recipient. I added my friend to this email exchange and she gave him a detailed account of her history trying to gain access to the account. He responded that a specialist reviewed her account and determined that they could not help her gain access to her account or the {$800.00} that I sent her and he was unable to provide further information for this particular case. A complete dead end which has left my {$800.00} locked in Cash Apps investment funds and myself unable to get refunded for this. For a company that made {$5.00} BILLION in profits in XXXX the complete lack of support is truly criminal. The support number just hangs up after an automated message saying none of the advocates are available to help, and to use in in-app support. It should not be this hard to reverse a payment, particularly when no one has received it by officially accepting the funds. It also should not be this hard to verify my recipients identity, to transfer the balance between her old and new accounts or to grant her access to her old account. Any reputable banking system would have been able to provide support to fix this immediately the day after it happened back in XXXX.

After trying to send funds to my Church /Pastor I discovered that my account has been able to send funds " I was in violation of sending funds " I bank with the US government, Military.. What violation exactly!! Once I continued to look a little further I discovered that the Cash App to send and Transfer Funds had Been hacked!

On XX/XX/2020 I sent a user on Cashapp {$200.00} for an item that she was supposed to ship to me. We agreed that I would pay half first and the rest when received the item. The username on that persons Cashapp was $ XXXX and the name she had given me was XXXX. I got an email saying XXXX had accepted the money, so I send her a text asking about the shipment of the item, to which I soon find out that she never intended to ship anything. I try reaching out to her asking for my money back since she did not or can not ship the item and she tells me she will send the money back soon. I wait a couple of hours and try reaching back out to her asking if she's had the chance to send my money back and I get no response. I go to the app Cashapp and ask for a refund from her through there, but she declined the request. I try sending her a text again asking what happened, why she hasn't sent me my money back, but again, no response. I reached out to Cashapp, explaining what happened and to see if I could do anything to get my money back, but they replied back to me saying there was really nothing they could do. On my XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX the transaction was still pending, so I also tried reaching out to my bank. When I called my bank they told me I had to wait for the transaction to be finalized before I could do anything about it. Once the transaction was completed, I call my bank again, and explain the situation to whoever I was on the phone with from customer support. Sadly, my bank also said there was nothing they could do. I had contacted both Cashapp and XXXX XXXX XXXX, and was told neither of them could do anything. I started researching if there was another way to get my money back. As I was doing so, I noticed on my Cashapp account that the card that is saved on the app is one of my old bank cards that should not be working anymore. I tried sending a family member a smaller amount of money to see if it would go through and it didn't. Cashapp asked me to update my card information before continuing. So now my problem is why Cashapp didn't ask me to update my card information when I was sending a much bigger amount, {$200.00}, to be exact.

In the early morning hours of XX/XX/2021, someone broke into my car by smashing out a window and stole a bunch of my things including my wallet which they found under my seat. Inside my wallet was my debit card, issued by Cash app through XXXX Bank. Between the hours of XXXX XXXX XXXX am that morning, my debit card was used to make a bunch of unauthorized transactions at multiple different retailers ( see supporting documentation for details regarding the transactions made ). I was asleep at the time, and my phone was turned off, but when I woke up at approximately XXXX that morning, I turned my phone on and received multiple text messages from cash app regarding the transactions. I immediately reported my card as stolen and marked all the transactions made as unauthorized. I was not able to contact Cash app support over the phone, but was able to contact them via they're in app support channel, as I was instructed to do when calling their support number. They let me know that they would be investigating the transactions and would contact me over email with the results. Eventually I received an email from cash app support that informed me they had concluded their investigation and decided the transactions made were actually authorized transactions and were made using my pin number. However, this is totally untrue! My card was stolen, and definitely was not the one using it at the register. Nor have I ever shared my pin number with anyone, and it definitely wasn't in my wallet or written on my card, so there is absolutely no way the thief would have known it. Furthermore, all the unauthorized transactions had not been immediately debited from my account, and were initially marked as pending transactions, meaning that they were not in fact debit card transactions requiring my pin, as cash app claimed, but would have been made at the terminal by electing to run the card as credit rather than debit. When I pointed this out to cash app, and sent them statements made in their own terms of service regarding the use of my card, I received no real response from anyone. In fact my last message to them went completely ignored.

On Thursday, XX/XX/XXXX, my son sent me {$1000.00} via cash app. When I went to go into my cash app account, I noticed I was signed out. They require you to sign back in using a phone number. My phone number is linked with my cash app account and I have a snapshot showing the {$1000.00} payment, also showing that I get texts to my phone whenever a transaction is placed on my cash app. So whenever I tried to log back in using my phone number, and my email, the app continued to prompt me to create a new account. I had no way to access my account with {$1000.00} in it. I then had my son do a " test '' and try to send me XXXX $ to my cash app to see if a text would come through alerting me on a transaction. Not only did I not get a text, but my son got an alert that my account is no longer accepting payments and has been terminated. I have tried many times with customer support via email, andXX/XX/XXXX, to try and get my account back. Not only have they been no help, but they have completely stopped answering me. They do not have any live voice for customer support. I have no other options as I have a cash app account with {$1000.00} stuck in it with no help from customer support. My " XX/XX/XXXX '' on the cash app with the XXXX $ in it is $ XX/XX/XXXX I decided to further my research and go on XX/XX/XXXX to see if any customers of cash app could be dealing with the same problems. It turns out, many people have been locked out of their accounts with money in it and have not received any word from customer support via email. I can also attatch photos of customers XX/XX/XXXX to " @XX/XX/XXXX' who are experiencing the same problem. @ XXXX is one of the only " Customer service '' that cash app offers. Photo 1 : a screen shot of my sons payment of {$1000.00} to my account Photos 2, 3,4 : screenshots of cash app users on XX/XX/XXXX who are experiencing the same problem as me Photo 5 : showing multiple emails sent to cash support with no response back Photo 6 : a screen shot of a text I received alerting that a transaction on my account has gone through, received when my son sent me the {$1000.00}.

I ( XXXX ) sent XXXX dollars ( {$75.00} ) to my friend ( XXXX ) on Monday XX/XX/2020. I have sent 11 emails back and forth trying to get it resolved. I have followed all of their suggestions but it turns into a loop of unhelpful support. They said if I provided proof that my friend ( XXXX ) can not access the account then they could refund me. When i provided proof, they said they are unable to help and that i need to request a refund ( I had already requested a refund, thats how the emails started ). I told them i already requested a refund and they told me they are unable to help. She has not had access to this account, therefore has not accepted the funds and can not be considered a completed payment. Per section 7 of their Terms and Service Agreement " P2P Payments not claimed by a Recipient for fifteen ( 15 ) days after the processing has begun will be canceled automatically. We will attempt to return any unclaimed, refused, refunded, prohibited, or denied P2P Payment to your Eligible Transaction Account or Eligible Credit Account, as applicable. If we are not able to do so, we may use other reasonable means to return the P2P Payment to you, as permitted by applicable law. '' They have not confirmed the funds will be returned to me after 15 days and I've asked multiple times. Nor have they provided any solution using other reasonable means to return my payment to me, as permitted by applicable law She has also given them permission to move the funds ( to her active account or back to me ). Per Section 8 of their Terms and Service Agreement " If you receive a P2P Payment and we later determine in our sole discretion that the P2P Payment was invalid for any reason, you hereby authorize us to move funds from the applicable Eligible Transaction Account or Eligible Credit Account in an amount equal to the P2P Payment. '' But they wont do anything to help. My money is in limbo and its just a matter of not being scammed at this point. i HATE this company and will not do business with them ever again. Ive attached both mine ( XXXX ) and my friends ( XXXX ) email conversations with support.

I have a CashApp account. It is linked to my XXXX Bank account. I also have a bank account at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. From time to time I would link my XXXX account to CashApp the last time being XX/XX/XXXX. Two unauthorized transfers showed up on my XXXX XXXX account statement ( the one NOT linked to CashApp ). On XX/XX/XXXX, I noticed a transaction for {$60.00} which led me to investigate. I then found another transaction had been completed on XX/XX/XXXX, for {$25.00}. Both transactions appear as if I had transferred money from one account to another account in my own name. I did neither. The transfers were not initiated by me. The funds were not received by me. Again, I hadn't had the CashApp platform linked to the XXXX account since last XXXX. I immediately contacted the company CashApp by email ( there is no phone number ). I also contacted XXXX and canceled the debit card and requested a refund. I exchanged emails with CashApp for 2 days asking where this money went. Completely missing the point they insisted that I should put additional security measures on my account ( the one linked to XXXX XXXX ). The XXXX XXXX/CashApp is not the problem. The problem is that someone used their platform to create a phony profile in my name, somehow linked my ( Launch ) debit card to it and stole money. It had nothing to do with the XXXX XXXX CashApp or a lack of security on it. They refused to give me any information and instead continued to cite privacy regulations. This makes no sense - I should be able to know where a transaction that was allegedly initiated by me was directed. I have yet not been refunded by XXXX. CashApp doesn't seem to understand the huge hole in their platform 's protocols. It is entirely too easy for someone to set up an account in anyone 's name, get access to their debit card ( easily done if someone is shopping ), and then siphon off funds to that phony account making it look like a victim sent money to his/herself. It's completely untraceable and CashApp takes no responsibility expecting that the credit card company will reimburse. This should be addressed.

On or about XX/XX/2019, I transferred {$420.00} to my mom using Cash App ( an online financial transfer product of Square, Inc. ). After a few days, my mom had not received the transferred funds in her account. On or about XX/XX/2019, I tried to contact Cash App ( a service with few available customer support interface options except online ). With limited options ( and few responses ), I filed a dispute with my bank ( XXXX XXXX ). After filing the dispute, we ( my mom and I ) realized the issue ( with the transfer ) was somehow on my mom 's end. On or about XX/XX/2019, I cancelled the dispute with my bank. On or about XX/XX/2019, my mom was notified that as a result of my initial dispute ( which had been cancelled ), the funds ( {$420.00} ) were being withdrawn by Cash App from mom 's ( checking ) account and would be refunded to me ( the withdrawal from my mom 's account occurred on that date ). As of today 's date ( XX/XX/2019 ), I have not received the refund. I have contacted Cash App multiple times ( including sending emails to to Square, Inc. 's CEO and the executive in charge of the Cash App product ). According to the information provided by Square/Cash App, a refund was ( allegedly ) initiated by Cash App on XX/XX/2019 ( which doesn't actually match up with the timeline of events as I don't imagine Cash App would have initiated a refund to me prior to having received the returned funds ). However, my bank ( XXXX XXXX ) does not have a record of receiving the funds ( from Square/Cash App ) and is unable to locate any information corresponding to the ACH trace number provided. I have sent multiple emails, to no avail and I have been forced to file another dispute with my bank. I engage in numerous ( personal ) financial transactions on a monthly basis, including cross-border currency exchanges/conversions, transferring funds between different financial institutions, etc. ( as well as generally returning merchandise I have purchased using credit cards ). I don't recall having this many problems and/or spending this much time on what is a relatively insignificant amount of money.

To whom it may concern : On XX/XX/2020 I went on CFPB and found that my case was closed. I Click the attachment and found a letter dated XX/XX/2020 conveying they would be granting my {$2500.00} from being scammed on XX/XX/2020. I never received the letter in the mail at my address that is correct in the letter. The Letter is in the attachment below. I reads to install a new XXXX XXXX App Square the part saying open a new App. ( Based on our review, it appears that you granted access to your Cash App account to an unrelated third party ; and in turn, this unrelated third party used the access you granted to remove funds from your Cash App account. Nevertheless, we have elected to grant you a credit for the amount lost. Our Customer Support team has prompted you to open a new Cash App account so that we can issue the credit. ) XXXX Since the scammed I only been having issue with the XXXX XXXX App. I have reinstalled the Cash App more than once before I went to CFPB and seen the letter and again on XX/XX/220 and respond to CASH OUT support email address on XX/XX/XXXX, and XXXX 2020.

I do not understand snice it was my {$2500.00} was granted a credit, I was to let them know I reinstalled the Cash App. So the scams started up again after I reinstalled the Cash App. After checking my email I get a Text from XXXX because of COVID19 Federal Government talking about call XXXX XXXX the have a direct deposit {$9.00} XXXX call them.

A cashtag participant created a fake profile similar to a business which led to the transfer of funds to his account to the incorrect account. I informed the cash app immediately and no action was taken to stop the pending payment. As per the cash app disclosures : You may select a unique alpha-numeric name to identify yourself on the Service ( a $ Cashtag ). You may not select a $ Cashtag that misleads or deceives others as to your business or personal identity or creates an undue risk of chargebacks or mistaken payments, As per this portion of the disclosure, the individual on cash app was able to create a cashtag ID similar to a business to allow the misapplication of funds. Cash app allowed this misleading behavior and when informed did nothing to stop the transfer of funds. 6. Peer-to-Peer Service Payment Amount Limits If youre sending large amounts of money over the thresholds described here, you will need to provide an additional ID so that we can make sure you are who you say you are. We will require you to provide us with additional identification information if you wish to send more than XXXX XXXX dollars ( {$1000.00} ) ( in any one transaction or in multiple transactions ) over any thirty ( 30 ) day period or to receive more than XXXX XXXX dollars ( {$1000.00} ) ( in any one transaction or in multiple transactions ) over any thirty ( 30 ) day period. Square may impose other limits on the amount you can send in any one transaction or in multiple transactions over any seven ( 7 ) day period, subject to some restrictions. We may adjust these limits at any time at our discretion. Furthermore, the transaction amount sent via cash app should have been verified as per the above policy. The total amount transferred required additional verification by cash app and this was not performed. The terms and service descriptions clearly indicate that cash app did not follow their of service in protecting individuals transferring funds on their platform and continue to deny the fraud that was demonstrated in my case. I am requesting a full refund of the funds that were stolen from me.

On Thursday, XX/XX/2021, I received a " CashApp '' credit card via USPS mail, which was issued by Square , Inc. I did not submit a credit application to Square Inc. or to Cash App for this line of credit, and this account was instead opened fraudulently by someone using my identity. Upon receiving the card, I immediately attempted to make contact with Square , Inc. using the Cash App 's support phone number, which would not connect me with any person who could close this fraudulent account. I additionally attempted to contact Square , Inc directly through its support phone number, which also refused to connect me with any representative who could provide assistance. I am therefore submitting this complaint to the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, noting the following additional facts : - As I have a fraud alert currently active on all major consumer credit bureaus, opening a line of credit requires additional verification of identity. This verification was not performed by Square , Inc. - Failure to conduct identity verification for individuals with active fraud alerts puts Square , Inc., in violation of The Fair Credit Reporting Act ( FCRA ), 15 U.S.C. 1681. Willful noncompliance with the Act makes Square , Inc. liable for " any actual damages sustained by the consumer as a result of the failure or damages of not less than {$100.00} and not more than {$1000.00}, '' and additionally, " the costs of the action together with reasonable attorneys fees as determined by the court '' in the event of any successful action. - Failure to provide reasonable means for individuals to call over telephone to resolve FCRA noncompliance issues constitutes negligence on behalf of Square , Inc. - Numerous news reports ( https : XXXX, https : XXXX, https : XXXX ) indicates potentially thousands of individuals have received CashApp cards fraudulently, or have had their CashApp accounts illegally hacked, implicating that Square, Inc. is negligent in managing highly sensitive user data, unwilling to comply with FCRA, or otherwise is acting in bad faith as a creditor and as a business concern.

On or about XX/XX/XXXX, I went in my mobile banking app to see my balance. I had XXXX, I thought, until I opened my bank statement online. I looked and it showed XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX taken out from cash app. On same day.Leaving me with XXXX balance. I notified my bank, fraud dept. They said we will put ur XXXX back in ur account ; however, if after investigating we find nothing, we will take XXXX back out. So on XX/XX/16 I had XXXX in account. Well, I looked later, I was overdrawn XXXX. The bank withdrew XXXX out of my checking saying Cash App said I authorized, which is a lie. So, luckily my brother put in XXXX to cover overdraft. I called branch mgr, she said bring in ur XXXX. My brother said im going in with you. The manager said we can pull history transactions from cash app. So, mgr printed off history transactions. The historys did not show the XXXX that was taken out of my checking, but my bank statement specifically showed cash app transactions. So, the manager sent history statements to fraud/ investigative dept for 2nd investigation, but mgr said on 2nd investigation, they will not put XXXX back in while investigating. Its been over 6 weeks, my bank has not notified me of anything. Im so upset, I did not authorize. I said why would I take out XXXX and leave myself with XXXX in middle of month? Plus, why didnt bank ask for historys in first investigation. They were ok with Cash App saying " she authorized '' with no proof from Cash App. My brother said the way bank went about this is bad business. Im on Social Security, so I get paid on XXXX of each month. I read where guy had same problem and he couldnt get his money back. It said u went straight to Cash App and they put money back in his account. I have seen cash app is the worse app to be exposed to getting ur account hacked. I use XXXX now with my bank. I used cash app to send payments, I advise everybody, DO NOT USE CASH APP to send money. I lost money that I needed, it has gotten me financially in a bind. Anything u can do to help me get my money back, will be deeply appreciated, Thank you.

On XX/XX/2021, I sent {$1800.00} via Cash App to a known recipient. I received a confirmation that the transaction went through, but there was a delay on Cash App 's end and it would be sent shortly. After contacting the recipient, they did not receive the funds. Eventually, I saw that the transaction was listed as " Failed '' in the app. I also saw that my bank account had a {$1800.00} hold for this transaction. This was understandable, but I expected it to be removed soon after. I then reached out to Cash App via their in-app chat function. They eventually responded and told me that the transaction was " declined by my card-issuing bank '' and suggested I contact my bank. I contacted my bank ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ) and they quickly confirmed that there were no canceled or declined transactions and the {$1800.00} would be processed and completed despite Cash App saying otherwise. This has now gone on for a full week. Each person as Cash App refuses to acknowledge the evidence and documentation I have provided proving that XXXX XXXX XXXX has not declined a single transaction. They offer no help aside from generic, copied and pasted replies, and have taken no responsibility or accountability for this fraudulent activity. In addition to telling me repeatedly that the transaction was declined when it in fact was not, they have also told me it's been canceled on their end ( it was not ), and just this afternoon claimed that the transaction went through ( it did not ) and that I can only recoup these funds from the recipient ( I can not ... because they never received them ). I am not missing {$1800.00} and Cash App has held these funds hostage. Their phone support is too busy to accept calls, their in-app chat support responds after several hours and offers no tangible help, and their email ticket system takes days to receive a response which is never consistent with the questions I am asking. I need Cash App to take responsibility for their fraudulent actions and negligent customer service, and return my funds immediately along with a formal apology from a supervisor.

SQUARE Since XX/XX/2020 we started to sell products through our web page XXXX and our e-commerce was Square. The first days we passedseveralcontrolsof safety verifications with Square. Since day one, Square knew that our clients in XXXX paid with pre-pay credit cards.We have 84 transactions without problems.Aftereach sale, we received from our clients the Payment Authorizations and we shipped their productos. The shipping policies are in our website XXXX. In XX/XX/XXXX, four XXXX clients bought some products and each client paid {$1100.00}. Two hours after, we received the terrible email from Square Were sorry to inform you that we are deactivating your account. We reviewed you account and found that your Square account processed an excessive amount of prepaid card transactions, with violates the Square Seller Agreement, and your outstanding balanceof {$4700.00} will be reserved for up to 180 days ( but no less than 150 days ). It was terrible for us! We shipped all products to the clientes, and we received from their the Payments Authorizations.Until today, we have not been able to contact Square, they have a big wall, by phone we need a code, they dont have email. We have the payment authorizations and its no problem, its safe to us and to Square. Square wrote that if we need the money, we may refund the payment back to the cardholder account, but its impossible!!! the Argentinian banks said that we need resolve the problem with Square. Square knows that in XXXX banks dont exist payment back and that Chargebacks dont exist.You can read that in many forums on the internet many people complain about the same situation with Square.They do not find a solution.We discovered that square to all those small businesses thatholds their money for 90 days.Our sales have been to XXXX people and Square is discriminating and they are applying a return term of 180 days.This is very bad.Please, helps us, so Square can refund us our money, the pandemic is hitting strong our economic. We are a small home business. We did spontaneous videos, but the COVID changed our business life.

I was using the Cash App, by SQUARE , INC, as an account to separate budgeted money for my wedding in XX/XX/2019. In XX/XX/2019, my debit card linked to Cash App was declined. When I went to the app, I was surprised to see my account had been closed, saying I violated their user agreement. I don't know which term ( s ) were violated specifically as I have not had any personal communication from customer service, only generic automated emails that I will describe below. I tried to contact customer service to reopen my account, but was unsuccessful at contacting anyone. There is no phone number to call, only an entry form to send an email to customer service. After emailing customer service, I received a generic email response stating my account was closed and to follow instructions to add my bank debit card or account to withdraw my remaining balance. I followed the instructions that were sent to me to retrieve my remaining balance. After going through all the steps, at the end, to verify my account, I am redirected to a screen saying that my account is closed and that I need to add a bank account or debit card to withdraw any remaining balance. Adding a debit card manually results in a response saying my account is closed and to contact customer service. Adding a bank account using the bank login and password also results in a screen saying I can't do that because by account is closed and to contact customer service. The third and final option to verify my identity is to scan my debit card. This will also result in a message stating my account is closed and that I need to contact customer service. Each time I contact customer service using the only method provided, I get an automated response with directions described above. I have screenshots of each generic email showing I received their generic response on XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. With exception to these generic emails with faulty instructions to retrieve my remaining balance of {$220.00}, there has been no attempt by Cash App or SQUARE , INC to contact me to correct the situation.

I opened a cash app account at the request of my tenant, that is how he wanted to pay his rent since we are in different states. On XX/XX/XXXX he deposited {$1500.00} in my account, I tried to activate my card and I couldnt get it activated, so I called the toll free number that cash app had on their website, a man with broken English answered the phone ( which didnt alarm me, as that happens often ). During the course of the conversation he was sending me codes from cash app which I have copies of. We also got disconnected and he called me back on a XXXX number which didnt alarm me either as so many people are working from home. After he helped me activate my card ( so I thought ) he asked me if I wanted my limit increased and he told me some numbers to punch on my phone to increase my limit. When I hung up I had a feeling something wasnt right ( I worked in a bank for 25 yrs and I am not easity scammed ) so I brought up my bank account and {$1000.00} was withdrawn and deposited in my cash app account. I then emailed cash app immediately and told them what happened and not to let any money get withdrawn from my account. They sent me back a confirmation of receipt and I emailed them again and told them to hurry up as I didnt want anything to come out of that account. I couldnt do anything on my end because my phone was jammed and it would let me do anything. They did absolutely nothing, the next day around noon they let a withdrawal from my account for {$2500.00} go through. Cash app is liable for my loss because they had bogus phone number posted on their website and then when I notified them at approximately XXXX pm on XX/XX/XXXX they did nothing and let {$2500.00} get withdrawn from my account the next day. After exchanging over 40 emails with them and getting nowhere, I contacted the California BBB and they were able to get them to refund me {$1000.00} but cash app still owes me {$1500.00}. I have copies of all the emails and their answer to BBB that I would like to send to you, they tell a considerable amount more that I am able to in this description.

Square 's product Cash App - would not allow me to transfer money out of the app or account via the fee less option. I checked with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( the bank the funds were going to ), they stated everything was okay on their side. Square refused to provide additional information needed to complete the transaction. - the only workable transfer I was left with was the fee based transfer. My funds were thus held and un transferable without a fee and I was unable to use the transfer option which took longer but did not charge me a fee. - I contacted square they refused to provide any support for the Cash App product other than directing me to a Q & A support page on the internet and within the App. - The feature to add a bank using the outing and account number did not work per their support page information and instructions. - The only option that worked was to have XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX debit the account via phone which was limited to {$250.00} a day making it a lengthy process. - Cash App offers not interest on their money. - When I contacted Square regarding the issue I had no live person to speak to to discuss the problem via chat, phone nor e mail ... just the support page. - I am highly concerned as a consumer that this product holds and manages large sums of money without offering any support ( outside of a Q & A page ). They also have features that are without fees that do not work. The XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX debit did not always work and sometimes required several calls and attempts before going through. Telling the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX employee that the card number was invalid despite the fact that the number was confirmed and worked on the next call? - Their accounting is also very unclear not giving a clear statement of your transactions and your balance in one place and in a clear manner. Pay Pal also has unclear accounting statements. - As a consumer I would like to see actual customer support by live people and better more clear accounting of credits, debits and balance in one place on one statement similar to banks. Thank you

On XXXX XXXX, 2021, i have recieved an email from cashapp regarding my account, they were saying i was in the negative, but i wasnt using my card. When i have messaged support about the issue, no one was giving me an answer on what happen or why it was happening, instead they chose to pretty much ignore the situation, they said they will get a specialist on it then stop talking when i asked if anything in the system stating what happen. XX/XX/XXXX i heard nothing back so i messaged them again, they told me to pick a transaction that i was disputing, but cashapp had no transaction to show they took {$65.00} from my account. When i told them that, they asked for a case number, i told them i do not have one because i have been ignored instead, he then told me a specialist will help me, so i asked again what the system is saying about why the money was gone, but received no answer again. On XX/XX/XXXX, i got an email from cashapp saying that it was about the charge back that i asked for prior. Which cashapp has chose the company won on XX/XX/XXXX, but after that decision the company refunded my money on XX/XX/XXXX, now it being over a month after they refunded me my money, cashapp has taken the money saying they reviewed both sides of the claim and choose that the company won, but i never recieved an email to fight against it, i had no warning about it, just an email saying my account was in the negative. I have sent cashapp the email they sent saying the company won, and another screenshot showing the company refunded my money a month after that decision. Cashapp has not responded back to me after that, they are ignoring me. I recently had XXXX and it was my only way of receiving money to help with food and bills while i cant work, and they are still choosing to ignore me instead of trying to situate it. They really shouldnt be able to take money out of peoples account without emailing them, without warning, or without being able to fight it. The money was refunded to my account over a month before they took it upon themselves to take it again.

On XX/XX/2020 i had open a bank account with XXXX XXXX, with it been so recent obviously i couldnt have a debit card right away to have access to funds. i had a cash app account well i decided to go ahead and transfer {$400.00} over and have it handy within seconds according to cash app it available in minutes.Thats when my nightmare starts XXXX eve no money in bank or no money in cash app. I tried to contact cash app, but obviously they have no live customer services making it the worse to get an answer. On one hand cash app no response, other hand ( than they understand and that they will do everything they can to make it right and keep me happy key bank was willing to cooperate ) This goes on yet still today and nobody can do anything about i have over 100 emails back and forward including one from XXXX stating that the funds were in fact returned on XX/XX/2020, with time, date, and where funds were directed, they cant even provide me with a tracking number, or a transaction history or number. Cash app rejected the funds to a card that is not even my card, its from XXXX XXXX XXXX. instead of sending back to my bank which is XXXX XXXX I need someone to have the courage to step up to do what they believe is right. This Company is gon na keep doing this every day and this cash app, or bank will go out of control. Not even the XXXX can make them response to the complaint. I wish somebody would guide me the right direction. Every email that I have received from cash app has been about how much they care about me and the privacy of my account but never got a real answer or a definite answer on where my money is people live on pay check to pay check and can not afford to lose a dollar. P.S today marks over 75 days since i have not had a clear answer from cash app they always say ur case has been closed due to you because u havent contacted us in three or more days This is the lamest idea i have ever heard you guys should be embarrass for what ur doing to people that really need it. This really the last email before i seek legal advise.

I have been trying to solve this problem since it occurred on XX/XX/2020. I was attempting to loan my son money because his car was repossed and he and his girlfriend needed transportation to get back and forth to work. I was attempting to cash app his girlfriend XXXX dollars not knowing that she had two cash app accounts. One an old one which she had no access to because her phone number had changed and her email address which she did not remember. I have explained that over and over again since this happened to cash app, which you can never talk to them and it is done only by email which in itself is frustrating. The person I sent the money to whose name is XXXX XXXX has also contacted them to tell them she doesn't have access to the account but they keep giving her ways to access it which have not worked. I just ask them to send the money back to where it came from and they keep telling me she has to and she can't because she can not access her old account. No matter what I tell them they will not release my money. The money was to be refunded to me by my son and girlfriend but they never received it. Now my bank account is overdrawn because I am no longer employed. I am XXXX years old and unmarried and unable to let XXXX dollars go up in thin air. I want my money and as far as I know this company has it stored somewhere. If it is still in this old account I would think after 30 days if no one claimed it it would go back to sender especially if there are complaints about neither party getting the money and then just close the account. Or let the person who should have received the money know there is a problem with the transaction and if they receive no reply close the account and refund the money. There has got to be a better way than the way this is being done. I am not going to lose XXXX dollars and not know where my money went. The person I sent the money to is XXXX XXXX, she lives XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, Ohio and her number is XXXX. My name is XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, Ohio phone number XXXX. Thank you please help me.

Square Inc. owns Cash App. Cash App stole from me. Cash App charged me twice for one order that I made with the XXXX XXXX that is linked to my Cash App account. On Sunday, XX/XX/XXXX, I had made a XXXX order with a total of {$28.00}, but I had a XXXX XXXX on my XXXX XXXX for {$5.00} off XXXX. So, Cash App notified me that the discount was applied, and the final total was {$23.00} however, it was actually not applied ... On Tuesday, XX/XX/XXXX, I get a text from Cash App at around XXXX CST about a XXXX order that was {$28.00}. Unbeknownst to me, my Cash App account had gone into the negatives because of this sudden {$28.00} charge that I did NOT authorize. I thought my order was {$23.00}? Hours later on Tuesday evening, I notice my account is in the negatives, and I look at my transaction history. I see that Cash App charged me twice for XXXX for the same order. Sundays transaction was {$23.00} with {$5.00} XXXX XXXX Applied as a note ( but it was not applied ). Tuesdays transaction was {$28.00} which was the actual amount of my Sunday XXXX order. I checked my XXXX order history to see if they charged me twice but NOPE! Cash App did. However, I would then wait for a day to see if maybe it was a mistake on Cash Apps end, and my money might be back there tomorrow NOPE! Nothing refunded. So, late Wednesday evening on XX/XX/XXXX, I sent Cash App a support request for a refund. Around midnight on Thursday, XX/XX/XXXX, Cash App sent me an automated email response to my request informing me to send over numerous information that mostly pertained to the merchant as if its the merchants fault for this. It is NOT. An hour ago, today on Friday the XXXX, I told Cash App that I am not sending anything and they need to send me my refund. Cash App had a lawsuit filed against them for making a user send over all that stuff for a refund only to receive no resolution at all. ( The court ruled in the users favor as well ). XXXX ; Cash App owes me money for charging me twice on one XXXX order. They owe me {$23.00}.

On XX/XX/XXXX I received a Cashapp card in the mail with my name on it, a card number, expiration date and CVV code. I was shocked because I have neither downloaded the app, no or used it nor ordered this card. The card came wit no cover letter or any kind of explanation of why it was sent to me. It only instructed me to download the app and scan the QR code to activate the card. I did not do that. When I looked up the company online, I was shocked to discover that there is no customer support or fraud telephone number- only an email address. So I emailed the company advising them that I did not request the card nor do I use CashApp and that I immediately wanted them to cancel the card and report it as fraud. I received an immediate response that they were looking into the matter and would get back with me soon. I did not hear from them that day. So I called my bank to inquire if there had been any Cashapp transactions that they could see. Sure enough in XX/XX/XXXX, they informed me that over {$700.00} worth of transactions were attempted against my bank debit card but my bank-XXXX XXXX declined the charges. XXXX XXXX said that the charges originated out of California. And one if the charges was attempted by a person named XXXX XXXX. I do not know a person by this name and certainly have never and will never authorize anyone to open a card on my name. Today, someone from Cashapp named XXXX emailed me back and asked me to follow a link and provid the CashApp card information so that she could cancel the card. I told her that I needed a phone call and would not provide any card information via link not access a link. She refused to call or make appropriate accommodations to verify her identity. I offered my phone number and zip code so that she could look it up. However, she said that for security reasons, she could not confirm any account information. I did cancel my debit card to which the CashApp card is linked but do not want this CashApp card in my name to remain active. Could you please help me with this?

Memorandum To : Cash App From : XXXX XXXX ( XXXX XXXX ) CC : CFPB ( Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ) file Date : XX/XX/XXXX Re : Refund for Unauthorize charges made on Cash App Account Mr./Mrs. Representative : On XX/XX/XXXX. XXXX at XXXX XXXX I initially advised Cash Support team of unauthorized charges. In XXXX I was instructed to reach out through my app concerning this issue, and I did. On XXXX XXXX I was advised that Cash App Support team would respond quickly concerning this issue.. It wasnt until XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX XXXX I received e-mail from cash App Support Team indicating they had found a {$5.00} transaction from XXXX XXXX cash card on XX/XX/XXXX. However, never really informed me of what transpire with the establishment ( covering who, what, when, and why ) this charge took place ; at the same time recommending disabling reissuing my card through the app. nor a refund from the establishment or a credit to my account, or even finding out the establishment information, because I dont have that information. On XX/XX/XXXX cash App support team closed my case with out solving the issue as to unauthorize charges. On XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX still have the same issue as before still not resolve. Im still getting unauthorized charges, especially 3 times or 4 From XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX card.These charges started XX/XX/XXXX at : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX There 8 charges on this day, and each charge was {$5.00} per charge ; coming from the same establishment ( XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX ) totaling {$40.00}, and you mean Cash App Support team are unable to make contact and refund my money that was taken from me? As a consumer I'm not being treated fairly in the financial marketplace ; pursuant to enforcing federal consumer financial laws, which holds financial service providers accountable for their action. I should not have to jump through hoops to be refund money that was taken from Me, and I should have a contact number to speak with a representative. Respectfully submitted

In XXXX I schedule to Take a cruise in XX/XX/XXXX XXXX- XX/XX/2020. The cruise line I choose was XXXX the amount for the cruise was XXXX I paid an deposit of {$100.00} XX/XX/XXXX. XX/XX/XXXX I paid {$35.00} & XX/XX/XXXX I paid {$100.00}. At the time the COVID-19 was not a major issue and XXXX XXXX XXXX did not issue a statement regarding the situation to cruisers! Fast forward weeks go by and XX/XX/XXXX another payment of {$74.00} and final XX/XX/XXXX another payment of {$420.00}. Not once did XXXX address the Covid-19 until the beginning XXXX when they got exposed for allow XXXX ships to departure with XXXX cruisers on board. Nearly a month later they started giving out options to cancel with option receiving a cruise credit or refund! No one can gain access to the customer service line due to the overflow of calls! People have requested refunds back in XXXX such as myself still havent gotten a refund but yet people who requested refund in XXXX are receiving their refunds! Thats makes absolutely no sense Ive waiting well over 60 days and should be compensated immediately! When you try to reach out to see the ETA of your refund they can not provide answer. Unfortunately for me I didnt use a major credit company for payments! I used cash app card, Ive reached out to cash app & cash did nothing to assist me! They couldnt even reach out to XXXX so that they can release the funds! This very frustrating had I used XXXX XXXX I wouldve received 100 % good customer and money back in no time ... Ive attempted to reach out to cash app again however they are requesting proof from XXXX that I am receiving a refund! After telling them XXXX has not been willingly to help they still do not seem to care! This horrible Im starting to think I will never get my {$700.00} back for a cruise I never even went on! I cant get proof from XXXX and I cant get help from cash app! I am in desperate need of this money I have been out work for nearly 3 months! I have over due bills and mouths to feed. I need my full refund.

Back on XX/XX/XXXX I had paid for a online store from XXXX XXXX for {$150.00} from a XXXX and XXXX. This was done first by transferring the funds from my bank XXXX XXXX XXXX to my CashApp debit card via XXXX, because for some reason XXXX couldn't process a debit card and the only way to pay was by their CashApp business account, which was why I had the funds transferred from my bank to my cashapp debit card. Made the purchase, communication was great, was even told they may be a delay for a few days because they were 'moving to a new location ' which was fine. I even made a purchase of another store, but with a different checking account ( business ) because I couldn't use the same email, also the same way but using a different cash app account ( also business account ). This was back in towards end of XXXX. Around beginning of XXXX when I've asked about the status of when I should have the online stores completed and delivered to XXXX, I didn't get a response. Sent numerous emails, still no response, and the telephone number does not work.So I've reached out to CashApp and explained what happened, they requested for more info which I've provided, but all I got back was a canned generic response which did not helped me at all. This was going around in a circle. So being frustrated, I've reached out to my bank to see if they can help me. A nice lady did, said she get this all the time, and gave me the credit. I did not still heard back from XXXX and XXXX from XXXX, but I did from CashApp asking me again about the info and I've responded that my bank has granted me the credit. Thought it was resolved until this morning on XX/XX/XXXX I was charged {$150.00} on my personal checking and business checking account! Called XXXX and was told by a XXXX it was because it was out of their responsibility because it was a CashApp transaction?? CashApp did not help me at all, and in the meantime I have no store, and I'm out {$300.00}!! Please help, I can not afford to lose {$300.00} Thank you so much! XXXX

I received a Cash App Card in the mail on XX/XX/2021, with my name on it - I never applied for it. It says it is a Visa DebXXXXt card. I don't, and have never, used any products provided by Square , Inc. Looking at their website, it seems bare minimal information is needed for a person to apply for a Cash App card - name, address, DOB, and last four of SSN. That in itself seems wrong to me. Their Help page at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXs aimed at customers. It wants to redirect to their app and wants me to log in using their app. I'm not a customer though and I don't have their app ( and I don't want it ). There is no email that I could find to contact anyone. I did find a phone number XXXX XXXX XXXX on their page at https : XXXX. When I phoned the number, an automated response said to enter 1 for customers and 2 for other callers. And when I clicked on 2 it said it wasn't taking calls for 2 replies or something and ended the call. I found a couple news articles about Ohio scams involving people receiving unsolicited Cash App Debit cards from their company and the trouble they had. The links both said to contact Cash App at https : XXXX XXXXXXXX for fraud related issues. I did that and filled out an online form stating my issue and later received a reply from XXXX saying the following ... " I get how important this situation for you but unfortunately I do not have access to this type of account.You emailed the Point of sale Support Team, you can reach out to Cash App Support directly from the Cash App : From the app, tap on your profile image and scroll to the bottom of the page. Tap Cash Support and review answers to common questions. If youre not able to find your answer, tap Something Else. Select your reason > Contact Support. You can also contact XXXXash Support by visiting XXXX. " So they are basically " fobbing me off '' is the feeling I get. I just want to cancel this card, that was applied for fraudulently in my name, and confirm there is nothing else linking back to me in any way.

I am writing to file a complaint on Square Inc which is a credit/debit card processor. Their business headquarters is located at XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, CA XXXX, XXXX. My name is XXXX XXXX and my husband and I XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX We offer brand new brand named furniture. We have been open since XXXX and have used square card processing since opening. We have not experienced any problems with them until now. On XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX we processed payments as normal as we always do. At the end of business Saturday XX/XX/XXXX we realized our deposits has not been made into our account at the end of business. After inquiring through a phone call to square they advised me without warning that our account was deactivated and all of our funds from XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX and would be holding {$10000.00} for 90 to 120 days. They could not explain to me why this happened and just said the system at random reviews accounts. These transactions were not out of the ordinary nor should have flagged a review. Also the merchandise valued at the same cost has left my store and the bill is due to the vendor for such items. I called and emailed Square several times in which they provided no details of why they were holding my funds. I asked to be transferred to a supervisor and the legal department and was told in this situation it was not allowed. That I would need to email but probably would not receive a response. That I am forced to wait 120 days. I would gladly send any information to confirm these transactions but they refuse to clear it up. Now that I have called they have deactivated a way to speak to anyone in customer service leaving my only option to email which allows them not to respond. I am asking for my {$10000.00} to be released to me immediately. Also have conducting research online I have found thousands of customers that have been scammed by Square, held funds, and not even released past the 120 days! This is how small businesses survive!

I have had a CashApp account since last year, and at some point I forgot about the account and opened another account when I got a new phone with CashApp. So this makes it two account. Anyways I have an issue since, as I have been enjoying their services. However a friend of mine who had sent money to me before, transferred {$260.00} dollars to my former CashApp account cos thats the one he has he did not have my current one. He made this transfer on the XXXX of XXXX this year, a few days ago and I could not access the funds cos I no longer have that former phone number I used in registering that account, I tried everything possible and I just could not have access. I contacted cashapp via email and explained my situation to them and asked that they grant me access to the funds after all it was my account. They asked me for proof of my account and asked for some documents and information which I provided successfully they and they said the verification was successful. However they were sorry they could not grant me access to that account or funds for security reasons and to protect my account. I further pleaded with them and asked them to help close the former account and grant me access to my funds, they tefused. I explained that this fund was for a sick relative of mine back in XXXX and the person needed to undergo an XXXX XXXX and it was a matter of life and death they still refused. Someone else sent me {$60.00} to thats and amount again today not knowing what was happening. So that makes it two transactions held up by CashApp. Sadly I got a news that my relative passed away cos there was no proper treatment which the money was meant for. I lost my cousin. I am indeed devastated and in pains knowing that I trusted cashapp to release this funds to me but they never did. After all Im the owner of the account and they proved it. At this point. Im done with them and I want all my accounts closed and all my cash returned to me since they wont grant me access to these funds.

My name is XXXX XXXX from XXXX XXXX, Illinois. I wrote to you today to seek your help. One payment gateway company named Square in XXXX XXXX maliciously hold the payout of our shops and users when epidemic is raging, depriving us of ability to against the virus. The Company name : Square , Inc The Company address : XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, CA XXXX, USA Contact : ( XXXX ) XXXX ; Email : XXXX Square is a payment gateway company providing money collecting service, allowing shops and users to register in their company and use their payment service. They hold and suspended my payout worth {$50000.00} since last XXXX. As far as I know, they have no right to hold the payout of shops and users without providing time framework. Even when they need time to solve the chargeback dispute case of buyers and customers, they cant hold the payout indefinitely without giving a clear time to grant these funds. At the beginning, they said they need 90 days to deal with potential chargeback dispute and payout will be available in 90 days, which is understandable, reasonable and necessary. However, 90 days later, they still hold my payout and failed to send email to me. I sent email to them to ask for consultation and seek help but havent received any reply. As of today, they have held my payout for half a year, which is intolerable. As the new coronavirus is raging in America now, I dont have money to buy daily necessities to protect myself because this collecting company in your city hold my payout worth {$50000.00} maliciously without any explanation. I really need these money to buy some food and cleaning products. I dont want me and my family to contract coronavirus, but I dont even have money to buy some soups and sanitizer. Please help me reach the company in your area, since I am in a very urgent situation right now. I can not protect myself and my family because this company maliciously hold my funds. Thank you so much for your time. Sincerely, XXXX XXXX

On XX/XX/XXXX I logged into my CashApp I started looking through the transactions bc I noticed balance was not correct. I discovered that I had been charged several times for a service from a telecommunications company. I called them to try and get resolved. After an extended time waiting they acknowledged that the funds from my account went to pay someone elses service, however since I was not on that account I could not request it be backed out or refunded to me. They asked I contact my card issuer which I did immediately. The amounts are as follows {$130.00} on XX/XX/XXXX / {$8.00} on XX/XX/XXXX / {$42.00} on XX/XX/XXXX / {$460.00} on XX/XX/XXXX After several days and emails asking me to contact the merchant even though I has already expressed that I had and they referred me to them. And having to send ALL info 2 additional times as well as canceling my card even though I had notified them 2 times before that the charges were made on a previous card I had. So that they wouldnt cancel the one I had just gotten and gave to wait for another one ... they still cancelled my current card. A week later I was contacted by a rep named XXXX who said all my transactions were past the 60 day notice as required by the Terms of Service. However what he was referencing didnt apply to unauthorized transactions. Section 39 Your Liability for Unauthorized Transactions states in part Tell us AT ONCE if you believe your Card or PIN has been lost or stolen or you believe a transaction has been made without your permission using information from your Card, your PIN, or Card Account, or you could lose all the money in your Card Account. no mention of 60 days. Even if 60 days whats the case we dont get a monthly statement or anything providing us our purchases or unauthorized transactions as we do for regular bank so if I dont go into the mobile app I dont know that the transactions happened so I think its a little unfair that they bring that up as a excuse to allow me to lose my money.

I live in XXXX, TX. I have a CashApp account where I had a total amount of {$3200.00} On saturday XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX, an unknown transaction was made suing my CashApp information at XXXX XXXX XXXX '' in XXXX XXXX , NJ of {$0.00}. The second transaction was made at XXXX in ''XXXX XXXX '' in XXXX, NY for {$1.00}. Starting at XXXX and stopping at XXXX, 30 transactions od {$100.00} each were made at XXXX in XXXX XXXX , NY. The last transaction of {$100.00} was declined due to not having enough money in my account. Starting at XXXX and stopping at XXXX, 3 transactions of {$25.00} were made until the third one got decline because I transfer the last {$24.00} that were left in my account to my Bank and I proceed with the deactivation of the card made by me, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX , because I didn't know who was withdrawing this money from my account. I got {$3200.00} stolen from my CashApp account on Saturday XX/XX/XXXX and nobody is helping or assisting me through this situation. After disabling my CashApp card, I tried reaching to CashApp customer service through phone, where only a machine gives you directions to report your card as stolen or lost, or instructions about how to reach CashApp through email, and they will be available to contact me in 48hrs. I've sent 3 emails to CashApp, it's been more than 48hrs and they haven't reached out to me through email. I left my phone number too and haven't gotten any calls back.I texted them through their social medias such as XXXX, and through XXXX I reached out to CashApp account and also CashAppSupport account privately and commenting on posts, and nothing has happened. I placed a police report for Fraud and accepted to press charges towards this company. I lost the money I've been saving to return to school through an App that is not taking or showing responsibility towards my situation. They are not responding back to me, and I would like to make a claim towards this business, hoping this can help me get my money back.

On XX/XX/XXXX, i was email by Square.com that read " In order to compliantly sell XXXX on Square, youll need to join our XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. Please fill out this form within 7 business days. After 7 business days, we will stop deposits to your bank account until the form is complete. You will still be able to process payments ... '' Late last year 2020 I shut down my XXXX XXXX because of all the regulations they have on selling XXXX. Since i stopped selling XXXX and COMPLETLY shut down the business, and DELETED my XXXX XXXX from square i started a new business. I now have a XXXX XXXX that i started after deleting my XXXX XXXX. I Emailed Square to tell them i NO LONGER SELL XXXX PRODUCTS SO I CAN'T AND WILL NOT APPLY FOR THE XXXX PROGRAM THEY ARE REQUESTING. I gave it 7 days to see if I would get a response and i got nothing from square. I gave them a call and explained to them that I no longer sell XXXX products, I've deleted the store and cut all ties with XXXX products. The current store ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ) started getting sales and square still has a hold on my funds. They told me that i would hear from someone in a couple of days and the issue should be resolved. Another 4-5 days went by and I'm still getting sales and my account is still on hold over an OLD store i had. I've called the company 8 times to resolve it and no one has helped me. I had someone email me telling me if no one reached out to me by XX/XX/XXXX to email her and let her know. I emailed her 3 times with no response. I'm a small business trying to make ends meet and square is not responding or helping me in the 2day time frame they listed or the 7-day time frame listed. It's about to be a full month of me shipping out products to customers without having the funds released. If this is not resolved and my funds are not released from square I will be forced to close down my business. I can't keep sending out products without receiving the funds for the products being sold.

On Thursday, XX/XX/XXXX I opened a Square account in order to process a credit card payment from a VA Contracting Officer. The payment was for a successfully completed contracting job where I was building a website in order to help a VA physician run a study. I created the Square account using accurate information about myself and linked my bank account. The total amount of the payment was to be {$3800.00}. On the XXXX, I spoke with the Contracting Officer on the phone and he gave me the credit card information to be entered for the transaction. I put the transaction into Square, and thought that would be it. However, later that day XXXX XX/XX/XXXX ) I received an email saying that due to unusual transactions transfers were being suspended on my account. The email linked me to a Square website which prompted me to upload several documents in order to verify my identity and the legitimacy of the transaction. I provided all requested documentation. I linked my bank account through Plaid, sent a copy of my driver 's license, and even uploaded a copy of the signed invoice with signatures from both myself and the VA physician with whom I had been working. Two days later, on Saturday XX/XX/XXXX I received an email informing me that my Square account had been deactivated and that my funds would not be released until XX/XX/XXXX. They told me that Square would not be able to " meet my business needs at this time '' and that the decision was final. When I attempted to contact Square customer support on the phone, because my account was deactivated the system did not allow me to speak to a human being. I sent them an email message from their support website which was also unanswered. My business did not and does not violate the business that they say are allowed, and the singular transaction that I processed was completely legitimate. They gave no information as to why my account was deactivated, and it has been impossible for me to determine the cause.

So it starts with XXXX, I was on there and I saw this newspaper that I thought I really liked and signed up for it for like a month, through XXXX. But I dont have access to that XXXX account. So the newspaper keeps charging me every month now for several months, that I cant turn off because I cant access XXXX to turn it off and Ive tried logging in and Ive tried contacting the company directly and Ive even talked to cash app support about the charges on my account to have them refunded or remove and they are unable to help me because even if I change the debit card number that I used when I signed up the company can still force the subscription payment, via cash app support. But I have no way to turn off that subscription or supposed subscription from The XXXX. I have no access to that XXXX account either. I tried going through normal channels and I dont like to make complaints unnecessarily but this is a messed up situation and seeing as how the company can force a charge on an account they dont have a debit card number for seems ridiculous. I feel that Im being taken advantage of as a member of our society that is not necessarily the most advantaged. This is not my first problem Ive had with cash app overall Ive had a payment of {$750.00} Go away in cash app support has no phone number so I can call them and waiting on them to respond by email to days in weeks and eventually I lost track of it because I had stress in my life to deal with. They then closed that account altogether so I couldnt access that money ever again apparently. Cash app uses poverty as a means to take advantage of people. Youre not the only ones of course. But they are a major player in the finance game, FDIC insured or not, they need to be regulated. And as far as I can tell they are not near as regulated as they should be. It is just one of the things that needs to change to make the world a better place and give people a shot at a decent life. Thank you

Sometime before XX/XX/XXXX, I was contacted on XXXX by a person claiming to be XXXX XXXX, posing as an employee of XXXX. After chatting on XXXX several times, the conversation was moved to XXXX. My business, XXXX XXXX XXXX, was hurting due to COVID and low oil and gas prices and I was looking to make money to pay my bills so XXXX convinced me to invest via XXXX in a company he was working for that is now known as XXXX that would use binary trading to invest on my behalf. I was told that the minimum to invest was {$500.00}, so I bought XXXX BTC via CashApp for {$500.00} including fees. I transferred the bitcoin from wallet XXXX to wallet XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. I was then told that I had to meet the wallet minimum of {$2500.00}, so on XX/XX/XXXX, I purchased XXXX BTC for {$1200.00} including fees. I then transferred said bitcoin to the same wallet. Trading then commenced and when first cycle was over, I asked to withdraw the bitcoin. I was told that the withdraw/exit fee was {$3100.00}. I then bought XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX at a cost of {$810.00} and transferred it to wallet XXXX as instructed by XXXX via two separate transactions on XX/XX/XXXX & XX/XX/XXXX. I then bought XXXX XXXX at a cost of {$1500.00} and transferred it to the same wallet on XX/XX/XXXX followed by a purchase and transfer of XXXX BTC ( {$1600.00} ) on XX/XX/XXXX. I was then told I had to pay a Delay Fee of {$2500.00} for my funds would be released because I waited too long to pay the withdraw/exit fee. I was in dire straights financially and had borrowed the money to pay the withdraw fee from my wifes retirement account. That money was supposed to pay my bills for the month, so I had to borrow more money from another retirement account to pay my bills for XX/XX/XXXX. At this point, I fully believed the whole thing to be a scam and refused to give them additional bitcoin, so I have never received my funds. Please help me recover this bitcoin if possible.

Cashapp account opened about a week ago. My account had reached the sending max, so it was on hold for a week to send payments. I didnt choose to receive a card in the mail for this account and I believe that was the invitation for cashapp to take my money. Upon trying to log in to the cashapp account, I received a message that my email address could not be verified, the email that had worked fine for the time period that the account was active. I contacted customer service where I only had the option to create a new account to get through to customer service. I was told that parts of the information I gave to recover the account was incorrect, but no specific details on which parts. There are no live reps for cashapp so everything has been via email. The responses are generic and prompted. I received no help in recovering my funds and when I asked since I had to use my social to verify the account if it could be used to get everything settled or if they could just send a card to the address on file so that I could take my money out, those questions went unanswered by 2 virtual ( robot representatives ). I asked numerous times. No anawer. I was then told that my case was being closed ( on day 1 ) because I couldnt provide the parts of the information that could not be verified. My money is in limbo and I fear that cashapp has no intentions of giving it back. I dont even know if Im talking to a real person or if Im just getting responses via auto reply because Ive given every piece of info they could possibly want and they wont budge. This is theft an I will not stop until I get my money back!! Cashapp has multiple reviews on these kinds of instances. The account went from verified to mysteriously not able to match information and none of this was my doing. I want to know WHERE my money is, I want to know HOW long its going to take to get it back. I want to know WHY my account suddenly became property of cashapp.

On XX/XX/2021 Cash App allowed multiple fraudulent transactions occur to my account, when the charges were initially made I reached out to the support via phone and chat support, which has not resolved my issue. On XX/XX/2021 after seeing the transactions in pending status I immediately alerted them, they stated they could only dispute charges after they posted. {$3.00} from a XXXX account was charged to my card 32 times totaling {$120.00}, to which I still have not received back! In addition, after speaking with the rep whom said someone would be in contact via email regarding this I HAVE HAD NO RESPONSE! I've called the same number XXXX for three days back to back and the automated voice indicates they're experiencing higher call volumes! NOT FOR THREE DAYS WHEN YOU HAVE ALLOWED FALSE TRANSACTIONS TO OCCUR! When chatting with support they advise you to contact the merchant to which I explained this is fraudulent, how can I communicate with someone who has stolen my information! In addition to the {$120.00} that was stolen from my account and has not been returned they have allowed multiple fraudulent transactions and have 7 pending for which I did not authorize! I have ordered a new card and yet still, on XX/XX/2021 they allowed someone to clear out the small amount that was reflected with a charge from XXXX of {$3.00} several times, XXXX {$3.00} and several other names such as XXXX XXXX for {$100.00}, another user by the name of XXXX XXXX attempted to charge {$50.00}. This is disgusting and immoral that as a company whom houses funds from all over does not have security measures in place to protect my money, no efficient customer service representatives to proactively stop things like this from happening when I reported each transaction while pending and stated its fraudulent, and a non-working phone number that DOES NOT OFFER SUPPORT! I am irate and want my stolen money returned to me immediately!!!!!!

As a merchant XXXX ), I processed a charge of XXXX through my credit card proccesor Square on XX/XX/2021 for services provided to XXXX XXXXOn XX/XX/2021, the charge was disputed by the customer, stating services not provided. Upon receipt of the customer 's dispute, Square deactivated my account. However asked for evidence to challenge the chargeback. I submitted support documents to establish services were provided ( promotion media, service agreement, emails, credit card authorization ). Square debited my bank XXXX. The customer submitted a copy of an email sent to her guest, advising the event was canceled due to low participation and their creditt cards would not be charged as her evidence. Yet failed to admit to her bank she was in fact the client not a guest.This fact should have been clear by the service agreement I provided. The chargeback was schelued to be determined XX/XX/2021. On XX/XX/2021, I received notification from Square the chargeback was decided in the customer 's favor, Not understanding how we lost the dispute, I requested Square to provide the case number and a copy of the challenge they presented to the customer 's bank. Square has advise they can not provide the information I requested. I personally believe Square didn't challenge the dispute and that is why it was decided in the customer 's favor. I want to file an arbitration with XXXX but I can't without the dispute case number that Square refuses to provide. If they acutaly challenged the disput, there isn't a valid reason not to provide the case number. This by all accounts is deceptive practice. Additionally, due to my account being deactived, I can not access Square by phone. I lost XXXX for their failure to honor their professional resposibility. I'm requesting your assistance to resolve this matter. I'm requesting Square to provide full disclosure respective to the dispute of XXXX ( merchant ) and XXXX XXXX ( customer ).

On Thursday, XX/XX/XXXX, I purchased a laptop ( XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ) from XXXX XXXX ( merchant ). The purchase price was {$600.00}, and the overnight shipping was {$70.00} dollars, totaling {$670.00}. Upon receipt of the {$670.00}, XXXX stated that he would provide a tracking number for the laptop. I went ahead and completed the purchase of my laptop. After XXXX confirmed my purchase, he became unresponsive to my requests for a tracking number. On Friday, XX/XX/XXXX, I become concerned once I did not hear back from the merchant with my tracking number, fearing I lost {$670.00}. I reached out to the merchant with no response. Then I decided to reach out to the Cash App support team. The Cash APp support team recommended that I process a request for a refund from the merchant through their app. I proceeded to process the request for a refund from the merchant. In that, I continued to reach out to the vendor to no avail. I continued to tell the support team my concerns and asked what would happen if the merchant declines my request for a refund. None of the support agents could tell in detail what would happen in the request for refund process. They kept referring me to their terms and conditions. Getting more frustrated, I noticed the merchant placed the item for sale again. I reached back out asking about the laptop, and they send the same messaging, which then I learned that they are using Cash App to conduct fraud via their platform. After bringing this to their attention, Cash App continued to refer me to their terms of service, not acknowledging that a user is stealing from others using their platform. After many attempts to alert them and tell them about the fraud and that it is not fair, they keep my money and continue to fraud, other people. This complaint shows the unscrupulous policies that the Cash app has as it allows fraud to be committed and has no protection for its users.

Someone broke into my XXXX XXXX XXXX Square XXXX inc. ) account using caller ID spoofing to pose as square cash security notifications. A transaction to XXXX was placed for {$410.00} through my square cash card on XX/XX/XXXX. I disabled my card, reported it stolen, and contacted both XXXX and cash support. XXXX couldn't help me because I didn't have an account number for them to identify the transaction through. This first transaction stayed in " pending '' for a week. The next morning, hours after I disabled my square account card and reported it stolen in their app, another transaction for {$410.00} went through to XXXX, immediately bypassing the " pending '' stage. Placing my account balance at- {$410.00}. Some time around XX/XX/XXXX, the first transaction was returned to me, alongside funds from another smaller transaction I didn't make a dispute for. Square XXXX support took this action without requesting any information from me. But now, square is refusing to do anything about the second transaction. Despite me providing all the information they ask for ( including the reports I filled with the FBI and FTC ), they refuse to acknowledge that I have provided any information at all and continue to state that they will close my case if I don't provide " the requested information ''. They refuse to answer the question of " what did I not send? '' But what's truly suspicious is the fact that square cash isn't even acknowledging that the first transaction occurred, and was then returned to me. I would think the refund of half the stolen money would imply the refund of all the stolen money, so I think they are attempting to lie about what has occurred. They erased all record of it from my account transaction log. The refund has been erased, too. I have chat logs of customer service agents directly referencing this transaction ( date and time ) that has disappeared from my account record.

On XX/XX/20, I noticed discrepancies in my checking account. I immediately contacted my bank and closed my bank card. I then made numerous attempts to the CashApp in which I was directed to contact XXXX XXXX. By attempting to contact XXXX XXXX proved to be futile except for hearing announcement indicating that there seem to be scams going on with CashApp. When I contacted my bank, they wanted a history of the transaction from CashApp in which there was none that I could have located. I then decided to file a complaint with cfpb for resolution. This is the history of the activity in question regarding my checking account that is affiliated to my CashApp. On XX/XX/20, there was a {$500.00} deposit into my CashApp. id # XXXX.

I had my car broken into while I was out on quick jog. My wallet was under my seat, but the theft broken my window of my car and snagged my wallet. While I was out on the run, they ran to and used my card at various places. I was able to get my funds back, except for with Square that has provided me with poor customer service. They have closed the case, even though it was still in the " investigative process. '' I have supplied them with a police report, documentation, photos, evidence, and approximate time that the theft used my Square card in person at XXXX and XXXX XXXX. They went to the store all within a matter a XXXX min and used whatever they could during that time, this shows and reflects on my account. As of right now, the fraud charges have ruled in " favor of the merchant. '' However, I couldn't get them to confirm or explain to me why it wasn't ruled in my favor. Unfortunately, I can not get them to confirm the police report # I sent month ago, as that claim has ended. The only way to communicate with them is via email and when I respond to that email thread, it said the case was closed due to a 2 week inactivity even though the Square representative told me that it can take up to 45 days for the review process of fraud charges. As of right now, I do not think they actually used the evidence I sent them and it was not represented well on my behalf. I am extremely disappointed in how Square is handling this and I believe that they are not following the legal process. Here is the email thread from before : Hello, Thanks for the email! Please see pictures attached of car break in! The two transactions that are fraudulent are : XXXX XXXX XXXX {$51.00} XXXX {$180.00} Please let me know when this information has been received and is being processed. As well as the timeline to get a refund on these items. XXXX XXXX sent on XX/XX/21 with photos attached, police reports, etc.

XX/XX/2021 my 3rd round stimulus check has got deposited into my old cash app account that had been closed with debit card ending in XXXX with the amount of {$1400.00} USD I tried to contact cash app support via the app on my smartphone also email all I got was emails pretty much saying that theres nothing the support team can do about transferring the funds to my bank account or sending me a check and closing the account with the remainder balance to my address on file. They claimed that they can not override the decision and they also claimed to try and do a one time funds transfer to my new current cash app account which was unsuccessful from what I was told. so from that point on I tried to call a phone number that I got from the cash app website XXXX and I couldnt get in touch with a customer representative so all I have are these emails claiming that they can not override the decision to transfer my funds and screenshots of the error messages that they gave me. On XX/XX/2021 I got my second round of the stimulus check deposited into that same cash app account with the debit card ending in XXXX with the amount of {$600.00} USD and I was able to transfer that balance to my bank account without problem. At one point I kept getting error messages also stating that Ive have failed too many times trying to link my bank account and it had put up a security measure so I then emailed cash app support again and the next time I had tried to link my bank account with my cash app so I could transfer the balance I just got the same error message saying to contact cash app support at this point I dont know what to do i cant get in contact with cash app support through the phone and emailing is just turning into a timely process thats just taking too long just to be told theres nothing that cash app can do especially when Im counting on this money in a college student so I need this money.

In essence the following occurred : 1 ) I was misquoted a rate and time by a vendor business partner 2 ) The vendor pushed back the time to XXXX as he was at gym with another client or getting his own workout in. Vendor took close to 20mins to get ready. I was truly not going to quiver about that 20min lost tart assuming I had been given the a full 2hrs or at {$120.00} had been refunded. So since neither of those occurred and the vendor tried to justify the pay received and time Thus, Im now asking and requesting the full {$150.00} be refunded for non-performance, fraud, deceptive business practice on behalf of Cash App its parent Square Inc the Vendor and owner of the XXXX XXXX on XXXX Cash Apps need to pull money of the vendors card or account and refund me the {$150.00}. The cash App site leads you to believe that if issues arise that you can cancel / refund a payment and they give you numerous option However, Cash App never investigated they just respond that they are sorry and tell consumers they need to contact their Financial institution to resolve the issue and if you drill down far enough on the app you are told to contact Square Inc the Parent of Cash App I will be contacting my bank today XX/XX/20 Reason for Refund credit 1 ) The name of vendor is the same as the name of the vendor was using 2 ) No invoice was every produced 3 ) The terms of the engagement were not met I was shorted 30mins. 4 ) Vendor quoted me an hourly rate prior to engagement then tried to change his rate and terms the following day in an attempt to justify not refunding {$150.00}. 5 ) The person booking the engagement was not the person performing the training .Cash Should act in Good Faith if they claim to have options to deal with issues A letter was sent to Square Inc on XX/XX/20 which consisted of exhibits and was a total of 56 pages please note a portion on that letter is attached

on XX/XX/XXXX I was trying to get a statement from my cash app account and I could not do it in my own so I went to the web site to get the phone number to contact them for help with getting a statement. the number I called was XXXX XXXX and spoke XXXX from customer service. He told me he could help me get a statement and wal me through the process. He told me that I had to do a demo transaction to create a statement and that it was not a real transaction it was fake and would not be deducted from my account. so I trusted him and sent a {$89.00} to XXXX XXXX then he told me I had to do another one for {$290.00} and then he said one more for {$430.00}. He told me to wait 5 minutes and I shoud get a statement in my email. No statement so I called him back and be blocked my call. I called my bank to tell them what happened ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ) they told me I was just scammed. I did file a claim with XXXX XXXX XXXX but they denied my claim because they said I initiated it and they did what I requested even though I was scammed. Now I want to make a claim with cash app. which is Square cash. I recently received a call on XX/XX/XXXX. from someone posing to help me with my refund regarding my scam. They wanted me to open a secure account where they can send my money back. I asked them was they from cfpb and he said yes. Then he said he was from California and calling for Square cash. I believe it was the same person who scammed me the first time. I felt harrassed by this person. Can you please help me to contact Square cash ( cash app ) to resolve this matter and get my money back. I recently received a letter from XXXX XXXX from Square cash in California saying she was investigating and wanted copies of the transactions and provided her email XXXX no phone number was provided. I am continuously being harrased by these people claiming to want to help me get my money back..

On XX/XX/XXXX I hired a mover named XXXX 's XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, AZ XXXX phone number XXXX They wanted me to pay thru XXXX well the money was not available that day so they made me use Cash App but first I had to get a refund from XXXX which I did. Then I paid them thru Cash app {$1300.00} from my XXXX account. Then they started unloading my furniture. Yes they literally held my furniture hostage until they received the money that very day. Then I found out that the owner XXXX XXXX wanted another {$220.00} dollars because it took almost 2 hours to find a way to pay him the {$1300.00} I refused but his men were still unloading my furniture. What I did not know was that they had blackmailed my grandson and granddaughter into paying from their XXXX account the {$220.00} thru CASH APP. I did not authorize nor did CASH APP have the right to take funds from that account. Both my grandson and grand daughter are under the age of XXXX years. My grandson used his phone to access CASH APP but used my granddaughter funds from here XXXX XXXX account. I do not even have the CASH APP login because XXXX XXXX told my grandson to delete the file so I would not find out but it showed up later in the day on my granddaughters XXXX XXXX account. I was furious. I tried to get the money back from CASH APP but there in no phone number to call just their APP. I have sent numerous emails and texts to XXXX XXXX XXXX and XXXX and they stated that they refunded money but as of today I have not received this {$220.00} back into my granddaughters account. I am requesting the money back from CASH APP because it specifically states that you have to be 18 to use the app and both XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX knew my grandkids were under XXXX and sometining should be done to this moving compnay that holds people furniture hostage and you have to pay before they deliver your furniture

On the XX/XX/XXXX, I received an email from Square banking stating that a charge in the amount of {$290.00} had been declined fo insufficient funds. I knew I hadn't made any recent purchases, plus I had checked my account the previous day and had more than {$7000.00} in the account. I checked my online banking and saw 21 transactions had been made. I immediately contacted square. I was told that there nothing that I could to do besides wait until each transaction was complete and file disputes. Two of the transactions were voided so I filed 19 disputes over the next few days as they completed. I have talked to square every other day and even called the companies where my money was used, all of which were in XXXX! While I was using my card in XXXX, NC, someone was also using my card in another country, XXXX. Square doesn't have any protocols setup to stop this. I posted about this issue online and found two other people with square accounts that his happened to. The other people 's money was used in XXXX as well and at the exact same companies for the same amounts. Luckily for them they didn't have as much money to steal. I was told by Square that while they research my disputes they will give me a loyalty credit. On Today I received emails for loyalty credits for each of my disputes. Within seconds, I received another email stating they were taking the money right back out. 19 emails giving me a credit and 19 stating that they were debiting the account. When I call you can not speak to a manager nor anyone in the fraud department. I have been put on hold and hung up on or told it will be escalated and I will be contacted within 2 days and I never get a call back. I recently read loads of complaints on XX/XX/XXXX website of the same things happening to others, fraudulent activities, and Square siding with the merchant and people loosing thousands of dollars.

On XX/XX/2020 at around XXXX XXXX transactions started to come out of the account as my husband was holding the phone on his hands. These transactions kept coming in until about XXXX XXXX. As the money was being pulled out of the account and sent to multiple people my husband and I kept pressing cancel transaction and issue a refund. we quickly reported the cashapp card stolen though we have the physical cards with us to prevent further transactions. I call the police immediately and filed a police report and submitted disputes for those transactions to cashapp. Cashapp replied by stating that we had to contact my bank and XXXX since {$530.00} were sent to XXXX to a card ending on XXXX. I had {$1300.00} in the account to complete my mortgage payment of {$1300.00}. However, my mortgage company never saw the money. I was taken right before our eyes. I contacted cashapp and they did not look into these suspicious transactions since they are saying that the transactions look like they were sent from my account. However, as these accounts were happening someone had XXXX my cash pin. Normally when you have a transaction and you want to send money or add money to your cash app account you have to have a cash pin otherwise the transaction will be cancelled. That did not happen at all. At this point cash app has done nothing to help me file a dispute nor investigate my claims. The institutions that they referred me to stated that they can not help me because these transactions originated from cashapp. I just want to recover my money and figure out who would do such horrible things. I still have to pay my mortgage company and cashapp is offering direct deposit and debit cards and my consumer agreement stated that if I notify them within reasonable time that my account has been compromised they would dispute it. However, they have done nothing about the situation.

Once I logged out ( $ XXXX ) I was not able to get in cash app and dont know where the monies are currently. I need help in locating where the money is and either deposited into my account or refunded back to the sender.

On XX/XX/2020, I placed an order via an online store, through XXXX. I messaged the individual who claimed to be the owner of the online store. She claimed to have had her business for several years and was successful. I placed an order for 1 designer purse and wallet, 2 designer belts, and 1 designer hoodie. Before I secured the order I inquired about the payment method and delivery service. Again, I was assured the business was legit and would get a tracking # for my purchase and I would be getting the items with in 3 to 5 business days. The individual stated she uses Cash App to receive payments. I went ahead and paid {$600.00} for my items. However, I never received my items, tracking #, or a REFUND. On XXXX, I attempted to retrieve my refund from Cash App which denied reversing the transaction even though I informed them I never got the items I had ordered. My second resort was to contact XXXX XXXX XXXX. On XXXX, I opened up a claim. The bank researched the claim and then denied overturning the transaction even though I never received the items/services. XXXX basically took the same steps I did, which was contact Cash App and did not resolve anything. I believed that because they are a reputable established FDIC bank, I would have had better results. Instead, XXXX was of not helpful at all. After banking with them for approximately 25 years, XXXX did not offer any support or do anything. It should be noted, during the two claims which were submitted, I continued to have contact with the individual requesting an order status, a tracking #, a delivery date, until I finally asked for a refund. She would avoid my messages even though I was notified she was online. Therefore, at this time I would like to know what I can do to get my money back and report her so called business so she will not continue to scam people out of their hard earned money.

During the week of XX/XX/XXXX a company called CashApp sent me XXXX different " debit '' cards attached to my monetary account with the company. CashApp is only supposed to send you these cards if you ask for them, because they have no customer service phone number I reported these fraudulent cards to the company over XXXX. I have seen complaints of many other customers getting debit cards they didn't ask for, the only way to get customer service about possible financial fraud this company is committing is to say something on XXXX of their social media platforms. I didn't trust giving information about the fraudulent cards tied to my monetary account out over the internet so I followed a link given to me by the " customer support '' agent over XXXX. The link sent me to a page to report my problem to the CashApp team, so I filed out the information about the fraudulent cards. Then the " customer support '' emailed me with a short list to submit information about the cards and an encrypted file dropbox link to submit the information. I can not type out the information they asked for in the file link they sent me, I asked several time to several different agents how I am supposed to use the link they keep emailing me. I asked if I should type all the information in a Word document and drop the file in the secure link or if I should answer the name and address information they asked for in an email and then submit picture files of the cards to the secure file dropbox link they kept sending me. They never answered my question and now are ignoring me all together, leaving me with XXXX fraudulently opened cards and no way to delete or unlink the cards from my monetary account. I have spent XXXX hours today trying to delete fraudulent cards I never ordered from this company and now they are completely ignoring me, leaving me stuck with XXXX fraud cards.

I noticed 6 unauthorized transactions from XXXX I didn't do. I first contacted cash support in XXXX, never received a response. I contacted cash support again in XXXX. Finally received a response so I sent the necessary info but never received an response after that. I contacted once more in XXXX. Sent the necessary info again an was told that 2 of the transactions could be disputed because it was over 60 days but if you follow the timeline I been trying to get help well within that 60 days time limit. The only reason it went over 60 days is because either cash app support never responds or they take weeks to respond. The Cash App manager told me to contact XXXX about the charges which i did but 5 of the charges orders have been delivered so the only route to getting my money back is through an dispute which my card company refuses to do. XXXX was nice enough to refund me for one of the transactions since the order was never delivered but the other 5 cant since they were delivered. The cash app manager has been giving multiple responses/switching their reasoning on not helping on why he/she cant help me and now im 100 % sure she/he will say the 4 transactions in XXXX cant be disputed now because it been over 60 days. She/he doesnt understand the difference between authorized and unauthorized orders. Since I have legit orders with XXXX she/he feels like the unauthorized orders cant be disputed which makes zero sense. I was also told I was already refunded for the transactions in question but if you look at the bank statements it proves that not to be true. I was also double charge for the same unauthorized transaction twice. One of XX/XX/2020 and also again on XX/XX/2020 with the card I already reported stolen months prior. He/she doesnt even want to help with XX/XX/2020 transaction. I feel like Im being played with and not being took seriously.

On XX/XX/2021 I noticed that funds were transferred from my XXXX Account to my Cash App-Square Account-XXXX XXXX. These two transfers occurred very close together time wise. I was able to disable the car that was linked to this account. At the time this appeared to be the route to mitigate any possible damages that may occur with unauthorized use of such accounts. On XXXX XXXX I spent nearly 4 hours making phone calls, sending emails, and researching some way to contact the party to whom it is necessary to speak with when such activities are occurring. Some time during this extended time trying to contact said organization, the card was un-disabled. It was my hopes in such a frantic attempt to directly communicate with such appropriate persons -- TO MITIGATE ANY AND ALL POSSIBLE LIABILITY associated with this incident. I also attempted to contact appropriate persons via the aforemematioend ways during the following 8 days. I WAS NEVER ABLE TO SPEAK WITH OR DIRECTLY COMMUNICATE WITH ANY SUCH PERSONS. The only option that was avail was to submit issue via the transaction log via the app. No confirmation email was given at such time. I was never followed up with. The case auto closed in 3 days. The resulting funds that were transferred into this account were used through a series of unauthorized transactions that occurred over the next few days. Such authorized transactions have been attached to this complaint. Said organization have violated ( but certainly not limited to ) Regulation e andf z of the Electronic Fund Transfer Act and the Truth in Lending Act, respectively. The aforementioned provides a process for such occurances, These processes are such that such institutions MUST FOLLOW them, or otherwise be in violation. Not only did said institutions not follow such processes they did not even give such reasonable access to such processes.

I attempted to recieve my unemployment back pay that I've been waiting on since XX/XX/2020. Literally, the day my funds are released, out of nowhere my account is disabled. No reason given. I was told it could be something in my account history, transaction disputes, or other possible violations of Cash App policy. Well there was nothing wrong the last time I used my card to get XXXX food or purchase an in app game purchas the night before. Im not sure how they came to this conclusion, but there is no recourse for me as a customer. Im helpless. Im stuck. My car payment is behind ( my fault, I know ) and I'm in repo status. My alternator broke 2 weeks ago now I cant move my car to try and make money. I was relying on Cash App to bring me through. My unemployment account already had an error fixed on it, which is why it took so long to be disbursed to begin with. I chose cash app as it had never done me wrong. Boy what a mistake that was. No explanation? Just a XXXX email saying sorry we closed your account, but we won't let you reopen it either. Tough luck and deal with it. What a bully way of handling someone who chose to use your company and trusted your company to secure their financial wellbeing. This type behavior is what is going to kill the next generation of banking users. The way they can freeze your life and you have to answer to them to get your own money. Its just a reminder we aren't free. Its depressing and very eye opening. Any company handling consumer funds, especially credit cards/debit ( prepaid or not ), should have mandatory live phone customer support and have to provide an exact reason why they closed the account. Otherwise how do I know this wasn't discrimination against the poor? How do I know I wasn't targeted? I want an answer for why I'm going to have to wait an additional 7 weeks for my money to be disbursed again.

I attempted an ATM Withdrawal while in XXXX on Tuesday XX/XX/20 and Wednesday XX/XX/20 from my Cash App Cash Card. The ATM 's I attempted to use all provided me with a message stating " Insufficient Funds ''. The balance in my account at the time of withdrawal was {$2000.00}. My ATM withdrawal attempts were for the following amounts ( as stated from my account history ) : {$980.00} {$960.00} {$650.00} {$650.00} {$650.00} After each attempt, I received an email from Cash App listing the attempted withdrawal amount, stating : " This ATM withdrawal was declined for your protection. We can not complete that ATM action. Remember, current daily withdrawal limits are {$1000.00}. '' I contacted Cash App Support on XX/XX/20. Their response on XX/XX/20 is that foreign transactions and withdrawals are not supported. From their website, https : //cash.app/legal/us/en-us/card-agreement 32. Transactions in Foreign Currencies. If you withdraw funds or make a purchase using your Card in a currency other than in U.S. dollars, the amount deducted from the available funds in your Card Account will be converted by Visa into U.S. dollars. The applicable exchange rate will be selected by Visa from the range of rates available in wholesale currency markets for the applicable central processing date, which may vary from the rate Visa itself receives or the government-mandated rate. The exchange rate used on the central processing date may be different than the rate that was in effect on the date you performed the transaction. For each foreign currency transaction, the Bank may assess a foreign currency conversion fee and will retain this amount as compensation for its services. Square will not charge you any fees for foreign currency transaction. '' To me, it seems that Cash App is denying the ability to complete my transaction on a product it is offering.

In XXXX of XXXX, my XXXX year old grandmother received a CashApp credit card in the mail which was fraud. She does not have a mobile phone or computer and she did not open this account. My mom, who is a senior and her Power of Attorney filed a police report and attempted to call and cancel this account. CashApp does not have a customer service number to call and report fraud accounts. Since you can only contact them via email, I filed a complaint under my CashApp acccount with detailed information which included my grandmothers fraud CashApp name and explained that the account was fraud and needed to be closed ASAP. I went through multiple emails and received a response that the account was closed. To complete the Identitytheft.gov process and attempt to figure out who opened this account, my mom who is her POA requested detailed information about the fraud account. CashApp sent a secure URL requesting information to verify they are responding to the correct person. I sent the information on XX/XX/XXXX and they stopped responded to all of my emails. I sent multiple emails daily to check on the status and and did not receive a response. Due to this poor customer service that I received, I filed a complaint with the XXXX XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. Two days later, I received two separate email responses from CashApp. They stated I needed to follow the detailed instructions and upload the information to receive the requested information. I sent the photos on XX/XX/XXXX and on XX/XX/XXXX I received a confirmation email stating they received the documents. I am now back in the same situation with CashApp receiving images of all three of our personal information and not responding to my emails with an estimated date when they should expect to receive the information. I checked the fraud CashApp name and the account is still active on CashApp.

I signed up for a Square Cash/Cash App account back in XXXX, and my account has been in good standing ever since. I noticed over the weekend ( XX/XX/XXXX-XX/XX/XXXX ) that my Cash App card stopped working. After opening the Cash App and going to the Support page, I saw a message saying, " Your Account is Closed '' and " We're really sorry but it looks like your account is in violation of our Terms of Service. ( https : //squareup.comXXXX ). '' I read the Terms of Service, and my account is not and has never been in violation of the Terms of Service. I tried to speak with a representative about this by calling the number on my Square Cash Card ( XXXX ), as well as the number specified in the Terms of Service ( XXXX ), and both numbers played recordings saying to contact support through the Cash App. On XX/XX/XXXX, I contacted support through the Cash App as indicated, requesting that my account be reinstated and offering any additional information that might be needed. I received an immediate auto-response by email as follows : -- - Hello XXXX, Your Cash account has been closed and can no longer send or receive payments. Reasons for this decision may include your account history, transaction disputes, or other violations of the Cash Terms of Service [ https : //cash.appXXXX ]. Unfortunately, we can not provide further details regarding our decision, which is final. We are unable to reactivate the account. If you have a stored balance, you can Cash Out the funds. If you have any issues, we recommend that you link a previously used or a new card/bank account. To Cash Out : 1. Open the Cash App and tap the dollar amount in the bottom left corner 2. Tap Cash Out > Confirm the Cash Out amount 3. Funds will deposit in 1-3 business days. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation with this matter. Thank you, Cash Support

Someone is using my address to send cards from CashApp and the company refuses to protect my address for that use. Cards are being sent and I only see them through the e-mail message I receive every morning from the Postal Service ( images attached ). Then, these letter are never there when I get my mail later in the day - which means someone is, in fact, reaching out to my mailbox to recover those cards. I am not home during the day to talk to the Mail person or try to intercept that person who is taking the cards or even getting the card earlier so they do not succeed in using my address to whatever they are trying to do. 4 different people answered my e-mail messages complaining about the issue : XXXX, XXXX, XXXX and XXXX. Apparently my case number is XXXX. This last message shows exactly how uncommitted CashApp is to combat fraud. ________________________________________________________________ From XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, This is XXXX with Cash App Support Team.

At XXXX XXXX I received a text message from Cash App stating that a Cash App user as filed a dispute with their bank for {$140.00} payment which I received on XX/XX/19. This payment will be refunded from my account. I contacted the Cash App user in connection with the transaction in question and they stated that they did not file any such dispute. I proceeded to then contact Cash App via phone no luck, so I proceeded to send then and email. They responded to my email stating that they have conducted a review of my account. As a result, they are sorry to inform me that they have elected to deactivate my account doe to chargebacks on payments that I have from other Cash App users. I replied to their email stating that if an actual review was done of my account they would have seen that the amount for the transaction in question was sent back to the Cash App user on XX/XX/19, so there was no reason from them to now have gone ahead and debit my personal bank account for {$140.00} which they state will be returned to the Cash App user on Tuesday XX/XX/19. They also went ahead and close my Cash App account with my {$100.00} still in it, and have also closed the Cash App user account that they are stating have filed a dispute for the {$140.00}, and there was also money in his account that he now has no access to. I contacted my bank and they confirmed that there is a pending debit in the amount of {$140.00} and I explained to them the situation. Agent provided me a XXXX XXXX number that was attached to the transaction and stated that I could call them and explain what is going and see I could get the authorization dropped. That was unsuccessful! I have unlinked my debit card and bank account from the application. I am righting for some assistance in recovering my stolen money. Thank you in advance for your assistance.

A contracting company XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXXused going forward ) did work. They did not finish and I had already paid on XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX XXXX.

I am a XXXX year-old target of financial elder abuse, specifically, what is commonly described as a remote access scam. In addition, this scam falls squarely within the spirit of the CFPBs XX/XX/2021 Regulation E FAQs defining unauthorized transactions. I contacted Square online because I needed help downloading my transaction history. A website that appeared to be legitimately Squares web site, but which I later learned was fraudulent, instructed me to call XXXX for Square Customer Support. The scammer represented himself as a Square customer service representative and fraudulently induced me to transfer {$7000.00} from my bank checking account and make multiple transfers to and from my cash app account and purchase bitcoin. Under the guise of helping me reduce my transaction limits, the scammer directed me to transfer money from my bank account to my cash app account and make a series of transactions to and from my cash app account. He assured me that these transactions were test transactions. In addition, as part of these test transactions he instructed me to purchase bitcoin. In addition, the scammer repeatedly instructed me to download XXXX and XXXX many times. Ultimately the XXXX was withdrawn from my account without my authorization or knowledge. This series of transactions resulted in a net theft of {$6000.00} from me. I submitted a customer support claim to Square which they denied. [ ref : XXXX : ref ] Like XXXX XXXX, Square is turning a XXXX eye to elder abuse and fraud on their platform. Square clearly knows where money is being transferred to and from their customer accounts and how long accounts have been in existence on their platform. I have since learned through XXXX search that my experience is not unique and that Square is well aware of this scam. I would like Square to reimburse me for my loss.

I created a cash app account probably 10 years ago. It didnt work great for my needs so I havent used it for a long time. my email account is tied to that account. here we are 10 years later and I would like to access the account because my XXXX friends use it and want me to use that app as well. Although I use the same email address I no longer have the same phone number, I no longer live in the same place, and I no longer have the same bank account that I had when I created the app. The only identifying information they asked was for my bank account number, which was closed years ago when I moved. The company has no other way to confirm that I am the owner of the account. This is fine with me and I told them they could just delete the entire account and I would be satisfied. I can open a new account using just my phone number. To be clear, I feel unsafe having an account with my email address that I can not access because if one of my XXXX tries to send me money and sends it to my email address it will end up in a place where I can not access it. If I create another account using my phone number which I have done, my friends might get confused if they are supposed to use my phone or my email. ( This has happened before ) I would feel much safer if I could delete the Account attached to my email but Cash will not help. when I explained all of this to the help desk at cash app they repeatedly give me only this answer : Your request to access this account was not approved. For security reasons, we can not reverse this decision and are unable to provide additional details. anytime I try to reach out to them they just continue to give me the same response : Your request to access this account was not approved. For security reasons, we can not reverse this decision and are unable to provide additional details.

XX/XX/XXXX and XXXX 2021 i made purchase for products that were never delivered, both of which are XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX , through a wesbite and company known as XXXX XXXX, with order numbers # XXXX and # XXXX which were made online at XXXX Both items were purchased with my " Cashapp card '', a prepaid electronic debit card issued by XXXX XXXX The purchases turned out to be a fraud scam, when i ordered the items XXXX had given a 5 week delivery time estimate. Then as that timeline was breached, i contacted XXXX to find out what the holdup was, XXXX had asked me to wait and have patience and told me that the graphics cards were late because they were stuck in customs, and then a fewks later they were saying they didn't know how long until they'd be released from customs and then when iade a 3rd contact over email, XXXX had said they were in litigation for the cards and didnt know when they'd be delivered and said they were not allowed to issue any refunds. Then on multiple occasions, starting XX/XX/XXXX, again on XX/XX/2021, i had attempted to contact XXXX XXXX through the cash app support email, and even filed a XXXX complaint against the bank because Cashapp/XXXX XXXX refused to take my dispute for the fraudulent purchases saying I had only 60 days to complain about the fraud and refused to chargeback the fraudulent purchases for the items that were never delivered. I was robbed nearly {$1400.00} and the Bank is playing policy games in order to unjustly enrich fraud companies and make internet purchases insecure so they can assist theft. XXXX is shut down and i can not contact them and they are not replying, i can not contact XXXX and CashApp XXXX XXXX XXXX were informed of this with my XXXX complaint and still refused to protect me and chargeback the fraud.

Cash app is forcing its users to pay with digital wallet by not sending debit cards as they said they would. Even goes to extremes to display a card has been delivered as per its status. After user grants permission to use XXXX XXXX, cash app will then commence a duplicate transaction using an icon similar or exact to the original merchants. When you choose to dispute they will then tell users to take it up with the merchant, or email them, never insisting or suggestion to open a claim as the real appropriate method in these situations. After reminding them the balance on cash app can never be negative and threatening to defund the account, they reversed the transactions and returned the funds. They did this subsequently for two charges and reversed each one within 5 minutes of each other after saying the exact same thing. This calls for a class action lawsuit for many people this has happened to and left much confusion dating back to cases over a year ago suggesting this scam is STILL ONGOING. This is obscure and must be stopped! Cash app must be put out of business, and publicly revealed, as the government bankrupts these scammers out of commission! The two transactions I will reference are from XX/XX/2021, XX/XX/2021, XX/XX/2021 The name of the correct merchant would be XXXX not XXXX - cash app has used a disguised name to avoid infringement. Meanwhile neither XXXX or XXXX had any record of the repeated charged transaction because Ive never had a subscription. The relation between the two are that they are both being done via digital wallet, XXXX XXXX, not using the card directly. I have zero access to my card because cash app hasnt sent me one for over a month. That makes room for them to forge transactions and app icons. I have support and references from external websites complaining about the same thing.

Over the summer in 2019, I had two charges come through my CashApp account fraudulently. When I noticed these charges had come through on my account, draining my CashApp account and drawing funds from my Banking Debit Card as a funding source. I contacted CashApp support and told them about the fraud transactions. They replied and told me that there was nothing they could do to recover the funds or fix the situation because the " recipient had already claimed the funds and loaded them into their personal account. '' I was then instructed to contact my banking financial institution if I wanted to pursue the recovery of these funds. I confirmed with them that the charges WERE FRAUD, and CashApp said they were going to note it into my account. On XX/XX/XXXX, I recovered the funds back to my banking account and everything was fine, However, on XX/XX/XXXX, I noticed my CashApp account had been banned and closed. I have yet to received ANY notice about this from CashApp as to WHY my account has been closed. They are currently withholding funds from me in my Bitcoin account, and refused to reply to any support questions on their direct channels via Email, XXXX, or XXXX, as they claim they do not have a phone number. As of XXXX on XX/XX/2019, They have disabled my ability to create a support ticket via the app, which is their only OFFICIAL way of contacting support, and they have blocked/muted me on XXXX and XXXX, refusing to speak with me about this issue or provide additional details, even when I have the copies of the emails that was discussed prior, identifying the transactions as fraudulent. I have also been blocked from creating any new account as well to speak about this issue OR request a new account. They are completely barring me from communicating legitimately about their service and this case of Fraud.

Offending company : CashApp, Subsidiary of Square , Inc XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, CA XXXX Website : cash.app Transaction Date : XX/XX/2020 Amount Paid : XXXX Payment Method : Personal Check or Bank Debit Subject : Bad/ potentially illegal business practices I transferred money into my CashApp account so that I could then transfer it into another one of my accounts that for some reason can't link to the originating account no matter how many times I tried, and CashApp had no problem taking my money and then decided it was suspicious activity after taking my money and is now withholding it. There is no phone number that I can call, and they are not responding to emails even though their website says they respond within 24 hours. Their website even explicitly states that there is no phone number that can be used to speak with support. The only email 's that I have gotten from them thus far ( I've sent around 10 e-mails ) as a response indicates that they might hold my money for up to 45 days, which they said after already holding my money for 10 days. There is nothing suspicious about the transaction. Both accounts are in my name, and they have no reason to be doing this. I simply don't understand how this is legal. It is royally XXXX me over. I'm going to have to pay late fees and interest because I can't pay my bills because of this. This is apparently a fairly common occurrence with cash app according to other complaints I've read, which is why I'm reaching out and I've also brought this to the Florida Attorney General 's office attention because this is not okay for regular business practice. They are holding my money, and I guarantee making interest on it while I have to pay fees because I can't access my money. It's nothing short of criminal. They are ruining my credit. I desperately need MY MONEY.

Recurring charges from Square XXXX showing up on my XXXX account statement even after being issued new cc # by bank. 1st charge showed up on XXXX cc acct : XX/XX/21 {$84.00} amount was disputed and reversed, cc # was replaced by bank 2nd charge showed up on XXXX cc acct : XX/XX/21 {$57.00} amount was disputed and reversed, bank rep put a block on company to stop any further future charges, cc # was replaced by bank 3rd charge showed up on XXXX cc acct : XX/XX/21 {$57.00} I have not yet disputed amount with bank yet, but spoke with a fraud claim rep that I go to the company site which has a form to pull up receipts of charges processed with them. Also, the rep says that it looks like recurring charges and they have no way to stop the company from charging again since it's coming from XXXX that's allowing it to have uninterrupted service, XXXX will just update it with the new cc #. Rep says they aren't able to contact XXXX and resolve it either. I have contacted the company but only thru a message advocate ( by online chat/messaging ) and he told me that I had to file a police report and then go to their online page to file a " law enforcement information request form '' ( https : XXXX ) for that team to investigate the situation. Within the chat window, I sent the rep screenshots of the 3 separate charges from my bank account that showed the trans date, card type, trans type, merchant description, merchant info, ref #, merchant name, etc. of the charges. The rep looked into the info sent but said he couldn't block/close the account that's charging my card but only the team that deals with the law enforcement would be able to do it. I have copied all the text in the chat transcript for my records. The rep sent me a copy of the transcript but it's in a format that's unable to open up on my end.

Dear Consumer Finance In the mail on XX/XX/XXXX I received a XXXX XXXX card in the mail. Upon opening the mail there is a debit card and printed card stock with very limited information on on it. It reds the following : On the front of the card stock is my address with a bar code and a number printed XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX to the left of that is a a small QR code.. On the lower left corner is the stock it reads ; XXXX Square , Inc. Assembled in USA, Cash App logo is a trademark of Square Inc. All others are trademarks of their respective owners, ID # XXXX. Upon opening the folded card stock in side it reads the following ; Activate Your Cash Card Scan QR Code with your Cash App The code directs you to download load a app. It is also has printed info and icons reading ; Save with XXXX Tap to Pay, Direct Deposit, Access ATMs, and Pause With a Touch.. It On the front of the Debit Card itself it reads $ XXXX and also what appears to be a imbedded chip. On the back of the debit card is my name XXXX XXXX with a credit card account number, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX with a CVV # XXXX with a EXP of XX/XX/XXXX and on the lower right corner it reads XXXX XXXX. I looked at contacting this company but get numerous XXXX Search results indicating this more than likely is fraud. I am hesitant to call a number I dont feel I can trust, and calling or downloading the app could further jeopardize or expose me to fraud. Im also suspicious to this mail as I never applied or requested this card and additionally there is no readily available contact information or phone numbers to call ( not that I would call ). Your assistance in following up as to the authenticity of this card or to report that it could be fraud is why Im contacting you as this just doesnt feel right and hope this may help others. Sincerely XXXX

On XX/XX/2021 between hours of XXXX and XXXX XXXX I started receiving email notices that withdrawals were being made out of my Cash App account. There were 5 withdrawals totaling the entire amount in the account of {$2600.00}. The email stated that withdrawals were taking place at a XXXX store in XXXX XXXX. I was XXXX XXXX at the time while my debit card was locked up at home in XXXX, XXXX. I'd never shared my account information with anyone so obviously I was puzzled and completely taken aback by my account being drained of all the savings I had in a matter of minutes. When I got back to my friends house I looked up Cash App website for support to try to retrieve my funds. Unfortunately the website support number provided was the actual scammers who got my checking account information from me and cleaned out my XXXX XXXX account. ( XXXX XXXX replaced the scammed monies ). I finally got a number from my employer who was paying me through Cash App. Ultimately Cash App closed the investigation stating that I had violated their policy and they would not reopen the investigation. It was just last week that sent me information about their policy but they still never made it clear to me what policy I supposedly violated. I'm still confused as to how I may have violated a policy that make this fraud ( Stealing my money from my account ) unqualified for proper investigation and my account made whole again. Detective XXXX XXXX of the XXXX Police Dept. surmises that an actual card was used which might be their claim He also theorized that I used the card at an ATM with a device attached which stole my card number and pin then duplicated the card. I only know that I never shared my information with anyone. That I was in XXXX XXXX at the time and my card was home in XXXX XXXX. I still have the card.

So on Saturday XX/XX/2021 at approximately XXXX am to XXXX I was doing online shopping on my XXXX XXXX app on my phone. I had added everything I decided purchase, and completed my order using my cash card from Cash App. I had already added their offered boost of {$100.00} off any purchase anywhere onto my cash card, specifically for this purchase, as I usually have big orders when ordering from this company. My grand total was {$150.00} and right away I had a notification pop up letting me know that the boost had saved me {$100.00} off my total purchase, and the initial charge was {$56.00} to my cash card. So the next day I go to transfer $ from my Cash App to my online games, and it said insufficient funds, so I checked my balance and activity, and all of a sudden, the {$100.00} was gone and the total purchase price went to {$130.00} so I contacted Cash App support. And it has been a nightmare since. Every time I send a message, a new agent joins and obviously doesnt read anything from the previous interactions. They keep giving me the run around, telling me that I didnt have the boost on my card, when I know XXXX well that I did. I have screenshots of all of my interactions with their support team agents, and I also have a downloaded PDF document of my transaction history with Cash App. And if you look at my statement, it clearly shows that I had some sort of boost on my cash card when I made the original transaction, because it shows a cash boost refund to my cash card. I literally am about to lose my mind with them. Theyre rude, they dont do their job, and this is now going to be a second time that Im being screwed by them. I just want them to stand by their advertisements about the boost. I want my {$100.00} back, I was saving that for dog food, and other necessary household items.

Hi, I've been with Cash App since XXXX. They also have XXXX, a service that allows you save and grow your money. With this XXXX account, I can save money, grow money. I can also take money out of as account as needed. To do this though I had to verify myself on my XXXX account to access my money. It was easier to put the money in the account than it was to get out! Since XX/XX/XXXX, I have done EVERY VERIFICATION they ask for and they still would not let me access my money. I called CASH APP SUPPORT on XX/XX/XXXX, still as usual, they need more verfications. This time when I went through the verification process, they took all of my money from my XXXX account. They said they needed more verifications so I asked my aunt to help me with verifying me because they asked f there's someone else that can help with MORE VERIFICATIONS!! My aunt helps me out and they take her money as well. Now when I ask for my money back, I get we're sorry for the inconvenience and we will do our best to get your money back that shouldn't been taken from you in the first place, especially for our verification process. Instaed of giving me my money back, every since XX/XX/XXXX I've been calling, emailing, via twitter, and they are still giving me the run around. So much to the point that they said it's been over sixty days so now they can't help. Wait a minute, What help? I have never received any help from yet. Over 6 months and all they did was take from me and my family. My family member who they stole from tried to stop the payment rom going through y contacting the bank. She reported the incident to her bank, but they still managed to override the bank and take her anyway. They have never helped me at all. I just want my money back! I did not authorize any transactions for money to be taken from me.

I had a Cashapp account which I had sometimes used to send or receive money. It advertised like it was a bank account, but one day Cashapp didnt work and I reached out many times. There was no phone number to call. After many messages on social media, I determined that the company had terminated my account. I reached out to try to rectify the problem, but was told they will not discuss any account issues. They will not confirm or deny much of anything. They told me via XXXX that once a an account is closed it is irreversible. I have asked for my account history, but they have not as of right now, provided it. The fact that this company can close my account, without accountability or redress-ability, nor comment nor any procedure is dangerous and problematic. What if I have a XXXX dollars of XXXX, cash or other asset? Do they continue holding it, is it refunded? These apps are becoming de facto banks. The fact that they can ban someone easily and quickly is of the upmost concern to consumers. Imagine dealing with a real financial bank and they refused to tell you what happened and keep pointing to the terms. This app needs serious oversight by a governmental agency. I am sure many other people are in the same boat. As XXXX and other virtual Paument methods are becoming more popular, these banking apps need to provide a safe platform, and the consumers need accountability and trust. I had several XXXX dollars in the account and I can not confirm if, when, or what money was transferred or where it is is disheartening. Also a XXXX user should be able to challenge, respond, or otherwise be involved in all aspects of the account, especially a total ban. XXXX should have to follow strict and rigorous procedures and not arbitrarily or capriciously. Thank you.

Dear CFPB Staff : 1 ) I established my Square Cash App cash debit card account roughly four years ago. 2 ) On XX/XX/2021 at or about XXXX XXXX. EST, I attempted to use my Square Cash App Card to pay for an email service. 3 ) On XX/XX/2021, at XXXX XXXX. EST, at about XXXX XXXX EST my Square Cash App Card was frozen with a positive balance of {$300.00} 4 ) On XX/XX/2021 at XXXX XXXX EST I attempted to access my Square Cash App funds but was unable to do so. 5 ) On XX/XX/2021 at XXXX XXXX EST I accessed my Square Cash App account via the company 's portal. The portal indicated that a fraud alert had frozen my account. 6 ) On XX/XX/2021, at about XXXX XXXX. EST, while accessing my Square Cash App account on the portal, I informed the company that there was no fraud and that I had specifically attempted to use the card for the vendor which I named. 7 ) My money is still not available today, XX/XX/2021. I am a XXXX XXXX mostly working XXXX XXXX at a XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and need access to my funds. I am especially concerned to see online that many other customers of Square Cash App have experienced the same inability to access their funds after notifying Square Cash App that there was no fraud on their account following a fraud hold, and specifically citing the vendor they had attempted to pay. I have never had my funds held by any other debit or credit card provider after directly confirming the absence of fraud and indicating the specific vendor I had attempted to pay with that caused an erroneous alert, and in every other case the hold has been instantly removed. I am more concerned for others who are more vulnerable than myself, as this could really be devastating for low income single parents with children. Thank you for your very important work. XXXX

On Saturday, XX/XX/XXXX, someone who hacked a good friend 's XXXX account, messaged me pretending to be her. They said that their mom 's friend was XXXX of the supervisors at Cash App and she could guarantee me extra money if I gave her some of my Cash App information, had money in my account, and created a Cash App Visa card. I trustingly gave out some of my information, which was a complete mistake, resulting in them taking {$800.00} from my account, removing my email and phone number so that I couldn't log back in, and they also hacked my XXXX account. I immediately contacted XXXX support and notified my friends who repeatedly reported my hacked account. They were now using my account to harass and scam my friends and family. Fortunatly, I was able to to reset my XXXX password and recover my account within two days. Since the event, I have continually tried to contact Cash App for support. As it turns out, Cash App does not offer customer support. There is absolutely no way for me to speak, or be directed to, a real person no matter what method I try. I even attempted to direct message Cash App on XXXX in hopes that a person will identify my situation and help recover my account. I am extremely disappointed by Cash App and the companies lack of security, support, and resources for their users. I am working on resolving the issue with my financial institution who also has yet to hear from Cash App in attempts to settle the dispute. I am writing this complaint to settle my dispute and prevent further scams and fraud. I also think it is important to highlight the lack of support and resources from Cash App in the face of fraudulent activity on their application. Thank you for your time and consideration and I look forward to moving forward with this case.

On yesterday I went online to lookup Cash app phone number to dispute a company called XXXX XXXX because I have not received the merchandise I paid for. The first transaction was on XX/XX/XXXX in the amount of XXXX then I paid the same company XXXX. I never received any product instead of disputing with my bank I thought I was contacting cash app. A gentleman stated he is the manager at cash app by the name of XXXX XXXX his direct line is XXXX ) XXXX gave me his number directly and then he proceeded to tell me to identify my transactions to download and log into support and give him ID code he was on my phone with me I showed him the transaction that was taken out he had to go to cash app and delete all requests sent to them for my money then he proceeded to tell me to add these code which was actually taking money out my checking account. I mentioned why is more money taken out my account when the original problem is not handled he stated they hold for verification I said Im going to my bank I didnt authorize these transactions to come out. Then he told me while they are handling XXXX XXXX do not attempt to log back in until he calls tomorrow with an update. I said I need my money back in my account. So I got my daughter to help me reopen my cash app because it was completely taken off my phone when we opened up my account he changed my email address to XXXX and deleted email and my phone number. Thats when I tried all in my power to stop that money from going out. I placed my phone number back and I deleted the fake email and placed mines back. Ive contact cash support telling them I didnt do it to put it back but I went to my bank and cancelled the card it came out of. Now my account is frozen with cash app and there is no one I can talk to to get my funds back

I then reached back out to cash app relax relaying the information from XXXX XXXX, also submitting copis so submitting copies for verification And have continued to get the run around with robotic responses An avoidance of finding a resolution, I have continued to be passed on from representative to representative from representative to representative to representative to representative over and over, i was given a case # XXXX And have repeatedly been told that they have escalated my case to the proper division, it's division, but when I try to reply through email I get a response stating we closed your case because the response was provided and it's been more than 3 days since we've heard from you, there was never any response necis any response necessary or even an email for me to respond to, adding to their avoidance and closing a case that is obviously not is obviously not resolved

I received a payment on my cash app last Monday in the amount of {$6700.00} so when I went to check to see if the amount of the money was available cuz I got email that amount was available but I wanted to check it to verify when I log into my cash app I was met with a message of me needing to verify my identity so I followed the choices and they gave me to verify my identity cash app has a huge problem with scanning the back of people 's state ID or driver 's license it does a great job scanning the front but nevertheless they gave me the choice to scan my driver 's license or scan the debit card that was linked to my account so I chose to verify with the debit card that was linked to my account once I did that I waited the very next day I got a notification saying that they were unable to verify my identification so I went on to the app she do it again but it did not give me that choice so I went to the settings to see what I could do so I verify my identity and I was met with a notification that my account has been closed with my money still in it so then I proceeded to see if I could use the cash card that came with the account to take my money out I was not able to use that because they deactivated the car so now I've been trying for almost two weeks now to figure out how to get the money out of the account I have sent them emails and all I get back is the same exact email response that they have been trying to contact me for a week which is not true so they decided to close the case so now my money is stuck inside of cash that they do not have a customer service number that you can call speak to a live person check that their customer service line is fully automated and it does not give you the options on how so it can help you get your money back refunded

I have {$2500.00} in my Cash App account under tag $ XXXX. When I tried to access my account they requested I open a new account since I didn't have the old debit card with me that was linked to the account. I then established a new cash account under $ XXXX. Both the old and new account are under email address XXXX. I sent an original smail on XX/XX/2019 stating I was unable to access my funds in account $ XXXX. They asked me some verification questions which I submitted promptly. Over the next 9 days, I sent 9 follow up emails however haven't received any response. Then I sent over 20 messages to cash app support through the application and still haven't received a response. In essence, I believe Cash App owed by Square has illegally prevented me from accessing my funds. Therefore I respectfully request for the FTC to investigate Square and subsidiaries. What they are doing to military and veterans who uses there service is a crime and quite frankly theft. Below are the details I sent 9 days ago : Hi, 1. Your first and last name : XXXX XXXX 2. $ XXXX associated with your old account : $ XXXX 3. $ XXXX associated with your new account : $ XXXX 4. The phone numbers and/or email addresses associated with your former account : XXXX 5. The phone numbers and/or email addresses associated with your new account : ( XXXX ) XXXX - XXXX / XXXX 6. Last 4 digits of the debit card The following cards throughout my use of the service : XXXX / XXXX / and card ending in XXXX or last 3 digits of the bank account linked to your old Cash App account **or** the full zip code for the debit card Zip Code for all of my cards were XXXX 7.

On XX/XX/2020 at XXXX I began receiving alerts from my bank about transactions that were hitting my checking account. The fraudulent transactions were originating from something called CashApp. I had four transactions successfully go through my checking account for about {$200.00}, the rest of the attempts were declined by my bank. I have never used CashApp and did not know what this was until this event occurred. I disputed the charges with my bank and they are in the process of investigating the charges. On XX/XX/2020, I received via US mail a Visa debit card from CashApp with my full name, a debit card number, CVV number that I did not request. My complaint is that I have searched the internet for contact information for CashApp ( owned by Square ) and they explicitly state there is no phone number that you can call and talk to anyone. You have to use their app to contact support. I do not have an account with CashApp and therefore can not use their appt contact support. I have no way of canceling this Visa debit card they have issued because I can not contact them. How can this be? How can they issue cards in someone's name from a fraudulent transaction and are not required to have a way for consumers to contact them outside of the to resolve the situation? I have no idea what this debit card is tied to and no way to contact them to get it canceled. The fine print on the card says issued by XXXX XXXX. I tried to call them and all you get is a recording that live support is not supported and that you have to use the app. Are you kidding me? Something is not right here and this company and bank issuing these cards ( XXXX XXXX ) needs to be investigated. How in this day and age are allowing consumers to be taken advantage of and we have no recourse.

On Saturday XX/XX/XXXX I received a text on XXXX from an XXXX user name XXXX, I knew XXXX from XXXX. The message was to me individually and stated that an investment in bitcoin for {$500.00} could help you make {$1000.00} in a few hours. Inwas skeptical about the message however XXXX continued to converse with whom I thought was XXXX XXXX to inquire more. The person who sent me to another person 's account who was supposed to be a XXXX investment person. This person walked me through the " process of investing on the bitcoin ''. They had me walk through a variety of steps that didn't work, then they sent me to a bitcoin website for me to register... they then said I had to send the XXXX to XXXX cash app to invest it into the bitcoin. After meticulously walking me through the steps they had me log in to see my " investment ''. It took about 15 minutes which I know now was time for them to steal my money. After I was having trouble logging back in to the website.They sent me a website in which was supposed to have my bitcom money of XXXX. They asked for my recovery number becauss when it was time to tradd the money disappeared. I stupidly thought it was for the money to be traded. My boyfriend amd I were in desperate need of cash flow which is why I was overly naive in this situation and the conversation with someone I know and trusted lasted fir a length of time s in need of cash flow and because it came from someone I trusted I thought it was legit. They then signed me up for a fake website XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX. The phone number they added to my XXXX account was XXXX the location was from an XXXX phone in XXXX XXXX, NY. I really want them prosecuted. My instagram login has always been with email XXXX and via my phone number XXXX XXXX XXXX

On XX/XX/2020 XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX attempted to do a transfer of funds transaction through cash app. We attempted to do the transfer of funds three times. All three times they were declined. At this same time while XXXX was trying to pay XXXX the funds, XXXX was trying to request them. Somehow during the transfer of funds being attempted both ways got mixed up and frozen until both of us could no longer complete the transaction. XXXX XXXX attempted to call this number XXXX, which we thought was for cash app support. At the time of making the phone call when we made the call we talk to a foreign guy. He had XXXX to download an app by the name of XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX on her mobile device. Once XXXX downloaded the app he was able to hack in her phone through cash app. This allowed XXXX XXXX to send the funds from her account to XXXX account. Instead of the agent sending funds from XXXX account, the funds were sent to someone account in California. He had XXXX XXXX to transfer two amounts. {$720.00} and {$820.00} for a total of {$1500.00}. None of these amounts were received in XXXX account. XXXX cash tag at the time was $ XXXX. Instead of it being transferred to XXXX cash tag, it was transferred to a cash tag in California by the name of $ XXXX. This was never XXXX cash app cash tag. After the transaction was completed to his satisfaction, the call was disconnected and there was no longer any communication with the agent. The person who received the funds had the above cash tag, the number was fraudulent and was not a working number for cash app support. The individual who made the transfer of funds was not a working individual for cash app support. These transfers were attempted through deceptive behavior and should be taken action against.

On XX/XX/XXXX I went to the ATM to get 400 dollars off. I had to do 2 transactions for 200 each. I only have a little over 400 dollars in my cash app account. I went to the first atm. And when it went to give me the 200 dollars it said error and didn't give my money. So I went to the ATM beside it and done another transaction this ATM gave me the 200 dollars. I did another transaction which this one said insufficient Funds. I then checked my account and seen that I had been charged for the first transaction. I called XXXX XXXX number on the atm and they told me that I needed to contact cash app that they had already reversed the money back to cash app. I couldn't get ahold of any number on cash app so I had to use the chat option. Which was no help at all. They had me do some sort of claim. About a week later I get an email saying that I lost the claim and it went in favor of the atm and I don't get my money back. I called the ATM back and they told me that is not the case that cash app had my money and that they did an eft and they was supposed to just reverse the money back to my account. The ATM said all cash app has to do is recognize the reversal and apply it..after about 50 chat attempt and XXXX emails. They will not give my money back. I've tried I contacted the XXXX XXXX XXXX and told them about everything.. and at this point idk what else to do. I need my 200 $ I've tried since that day to get cash app to resolve this and the atm XXXX XXXX if u call them they will tell u that they reversed the money back to cash app. Cash app refuses to pay it back to me. They sent an email saying that the final decision was made and I don't get my money back. And the atm said that's cause cash app did an eft when they should of done a reversal.

Hello : I opened an account with CashApp mid XX/XX/XXXX as I do not have a bank account. Most of the time everything processes as expected however on XX/XX/XXXX Department of Labor released 20 payments to me in the amounts of 10 payments of {$600.00} and 10 payments of XXXX totaling {$7800.00} all by ACH transfers via direct deposit. I have not received these funds to date. I confirmed my account number on DOL website and have since received future deposits from DOL to my CashApp card. When confirming on the DOL website it does not show you the previous account number so what I did was enter my correct account number. I have emailed CashApp as they do not offer any other kind of customer service. Without a response I filed a complaint with the XXXX, then CashApp replied to my email on XX/XX/XXXX requesting I request an ACH trace from DOL and they provide the details on their letterhead. One XX/XX/XXXX I received the letter from DOL showing the money was transferred to CashApp but under a different account number. I do not recognize the account number that the money was sent to it is very different from my account number so I have no idea how this account number was attached to my DOL direct deposits. I emailed CashApp the same day XX/XX/XXXX attaching the letter from DOL with all the details CashApp requested and here we are on XX/XX/XXXX and they have not responded, I've sent multiple emails everyday since XX/XX/XXXX and still nothing has been sent back to me, not even a confirmation that they received my letter. I have the proof that CashApp requested and I'm in desperate need of my unemployment payments to pay my bills. I also sent the DOL letter and a letter I created to CashApp in XXXX XXXX CA via the post office on XX/XX/XXXX.

On XX/XX/XXXX I went to try and process my payroll on Square 's platform and it said that it could not process my payroll. My account looked lower than usual ( $ XXXX ) so I transferred funds from their Square Savings. It showed as a {$4500.00} transfer out of my savings and a {$4500.00} transfer into my account- but my account balance showed as {$0.00}. The {$1700.00} on the account and the {$4500.00} disappeared! I contacted them via phone and they said they'd look into it and get back to me. They did not call me back. I called the XXXX and I was promised an email. I called a second time and they said they expedited the process. On the XXXX, since they have no phone support over the weekend, I tweeted their platform. They got back to me over XXXX within an hour and said they escalated the issue but could not give me an answer as to when it would be resolved. My balance is still {$0.00} even though we had made over {$1500.00} in sales that day. We have made over {$2500.00} in sales since the XXXX and it's still showing as a {$0.00} balance. They are still pulling from my sales to pay for my Square Capital Loan, even though I don't have access to any of those funds ( which tells me on their end their system is able to compute the amount of money made, as loan payments are an automatic withdrawal prior to depositing into my account. ) On XXXX I found other customers who have had the same issue this week. I rallied with them, fustrated at this issue and @ Square blocked my account on XXXX! They refuse to be transparent about their platform issues and refuse to make an announcement and my balance is still {$0.00}. I have an equipment loan to payoff! I have employees to pay. I strongly advise from using Square or promoting Square.

On XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX, I received a direct message on XXXX from an account claiming to be a graphic artist and offering to do work for me. On the same day, at XXXX, I engaged the " artist '' and we came to an agreement on what I wanted and a price ( {$50.00} ). I was told that as soon as they received a confirmation of payment through CashApp, they would start my work. At XXXX, they provided their cashtag which is XXXX XXXX. I then sent the payment and at XXXX, provided the screenshot of the payment being completed. The next day ( XX/XX/XXXX ) at XXXX, I was accused of not sending the payment. At XXXX, I logged on to my online banking and took a picture of the transaction showing that it was out of my bank account and processed. After some back and forth arguing, I once again sent the bank account transaction AND a screenshot of a completed payment from me to XXXX XXXX through cashapp. At XXXX, this person had the audacity to ask me for ANOTHER {$20.00} to " clarify my payment ''. I refused, there were some angry messages that followed, all of which I have screenshots and I requested a refund. I was denied my refund from this person on XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX. I have been trying to reach customer support for weeks. Through emails, and phone calls. I have never received a return email and every phone call ends up with me on hold for an hour and a disconnected call. Today ( XX/XX/XXXX ) I got an automated call from cashapp about my declined refund. There were no options to press any buttons and when I call the number provided, it just disconnects. I even contacted my bank and was told they don't deal with cashapp. This was supposed to be for a Father 's Day gift and not only am I out the money, but I also didn't have the gift done on time.

attempted to help. I did not note the agent 's name. The agent asked if he could call. I agreed. On the phone the agent had me download an app called XXXX XXXX. The agent explained this was one of the procedures Cash App employed to better serve it, clients. The app lets an agent see was the client sees. The agent said, " in order to unlock your account type this in and hit enter ''. I did as instructed, Belatedly I realized I had typed in the procedure Cash App uses to wire funds, a cash tag followed by a numbered amount. I confirmed with the agent whether I had wired funds. The agent said not really because the funds went to a Cash App dummy account and would be reversed back into my account in a few hours. I was not happy and protested the agent 's actions. I was uncomfortable using the App after that and choose instead to wire through XXXX. The next morning the money still was not in my account. I tried customer service via the app and received no response, unlike before. There was no other form of contact available to save the email. I wanted the money situation addressed quickly before the transaction was completed. I wanted a live person to intercede immediately. I went to the web and found a number for Cash App. I called and asked for a manager. XXXX XXXX identified himself as a manager. I explain that an agent from cash app deducted funds and I wanted them back. Mr. XXXX assured me he would get the funds back but he too had to verify I was authorized to access the account. The authorization process was the same. I bulked. But wanted the funds back. Mr. XXXX did not use the same hashtag method but he named a series of numbers that ended up being deductions totaling {$3500.00}. Cash App has stopped responding to me or my bank.

At XXXX on XX/XX/2021 I tried to withdraw my money that I had on my cash app card. When trying to withdraw my money from the ATM, I kept receiving an error message. I immediately contacted cash app support team explaining to them that I was not able to withdraw my funds from an ATM nor at a grocery store cash back purchase. The representative told me to try again that it should work, it didn't. Again on XX/XX/2021 I reached out to cash app support and explained to them that I am not able to cash out funds by linking a debit card nor can I cash out by linking a bank account, every time I tried it gave me an error message saying failed to link bank or incorrect info. yet when I go on my banking app I am able to login so I expressed to the representative it is not the wrong information that Im entering and every time I try to link a government issued bank debit card or link my account and routing number it gives me a error message. The representative then tells me that unfortunately there is nothing that she can do as she gave me all the options I have and all I can do is try linking new banks and cards as the ones that I tried are not able to be linked to cash app and she can't override it. Long story short, I have been messaging and emailing cash app managers and representative about this issue since XX/XX/2021 and I have not been able to get my money off. I am not able to send or receive money because they closed my cash app account shortly after my complaints to them and told me that my account was in violation because I requested a refund. I am not able to transfer, receive, send, or cash out my funds.i have asked for a check to be mailed or for any help of any kind and I get the same message In response from their support team.

The federal violation conducted pertains to the Consumer Protection Act whereas SquareXXXX failed To protect consumers from unfair or deceitful actions made against me by its merchant, XXXX XXXX. Also, my consumer protection was violated in the state of Texas in which a consumer complaint was filed. The merchant offered store credit for its consumers via website and refused to honor that for me. So as of today it has my products as well as charged me for the products. Prior to reaching out to you directly, I have taken multiple attempts with disputing this matter with my bank XXXX and the merchant lied and indicated that I have my products which I don't. Before I seek legal guidance from a consumer attorney and escalated this matter to the following entities CFPB, XXXX and Texas Attorney General, I believe that its important for the entities to know the lack of accountability SquareXXXXXXXX has taken regarding my matter and not being careful as to know how merchants refuse to work with its customers after being suggested. SquareXXXX should have understood as a brand consumers are helping small businesses and corporations during these times of the pandemic and for consumers not to be ripped off with falsified policies. Also, SquareXXXX should acknowledge that the merchant should be held responsible for its Liability for Chargebacks especially after disputing with my institution. I attached the following images to support my dispute which shows the merchant having my products via tracking number, a screenshot of her website with the verbiage of " store credit only '', screenshots of her threatening me on social media, etc. Since then, I have reported this behavior as consumer fraud and theft to FTC as well Report # XXXX

On XX/XX/2021, I applied the {$100.00} of $ XXXX boost on a XXXX order. However, on XX/XX/2021 morning, I received notification from XXXX that the order has been cancelled. I contacted XXXX and was informed that the order was cancelled since they were not able to verify the payment with the card issuer, which is CashApp. I was informed that the money was never taken out from my account as if the transaction/order has never happened. XXXX informed me that it was the bank that declined the transaction. I tried to locate the transaction in the transaction history tab but could not find anything. Since the order did not go through, I would like to use the {$100.00} off XXXX elsewhere. However, I could not locate the XXXX anywhere in the App. I would like to request to add the XXXX back to my account so I could use it. I am asking to have the XXXX applied to my account so I can add it to my card, since I have met the condition of unlocking the XXXX. Im eligible to use it, and I havent used it yet. Just want to reiterate that I am not asking for a reimbursement of the XXXXXXXX, and this is not an issue about a XXXX not been correctly applied to a given transaction. All Im asking for is to add the XXXX, which I am totally eligible for and have not used yet, to my account. I have chatted with several customer service representatives, including XXXX and XXXX, trying to resolve the issue. However, I was given random, computer-generated replies, some of which even have nothing to do with my issue. It seems that XXXX, the agent I chatted with, does not even bother to look into my issue and just want to end the chat and dismiss me as soon as possible. After several failed attempts, I was left with no choice but to file this complaint.

Ordered a dining table XX/XX/XXXX and provided pictures of what we wanted it to look like. Top measurements were provided by merchant, not bottom. The company was supposed to provide pictures of base but did not. XXXX was supposed to be received on XX/XX/XXXX and delayed delivery multiple times. During this time the original company who was supposed to make it did not and it was given to a different company ( owner XXXX informed me of this ) We received the table on XXXX and had to send it back. The base was much larger than discussed and did not fit properly in our space. The table also had a large defect on the top and had places where it wasn't stained properly. We contacted the merchant who said she would work on providing a different base. She provided links to other bases and measurements and these were also too large. We asked for a refund and she wanted us to come in to discuss which we were unable to due to travel. She then said she'd replace a small portion ( 15 % ) of our fees which does not work for us. We do not have the table and she is withholding our refund. I contacted our bank which took the dispute but also said we should contact Consumer Finance as sometimes Square is viewed as just a money transfer and will not provide a refund regardless of circumstances. I also went on the Square site that does not mention this but wanted to go this route to make sure we get our money back so we can buy a dining table since we currently have nothing. Please note : the merchant did not inform me that she was using Square to take payment. She also says Terms and Conditions were given but I do not know what these Terms and Conditions were. Regardless, the complete wrong table was given to us and she will not refund us.

XXXX. I was mislead by a scammer on the internet posing as someone who wanted to help a college student financially by sending me money. They first " got to know me '' and then said I would get an allowance of XXXX $ a week, just for companionship and talking with them. He then had me do an " errand ''. He sent me a check for {$2500.00} and asked me to deposit {$2200.00} of it into Cash App. Somewhat suspicious, I called my bank and ask if the check cleared. They said yes ( little did I know a check can take weeks to clear ). After I deposited the money into CashApp and sent it to the username on CashApp of " XXXX XXXX '' ( who also had another account " XXXX XXXX ''. I was extremely suspicious. I looked on the check that was sent and called the bank which is was from. I asked them if the listed account number had funds available and they said no. That is when I knew it was a fake check. So basically they gave me a fake check, had me transfer the fake money into a third party cash website, and I am left to pay the {$2200.00} back to the bank. I have contacted CashApp Support an insane amount of times, asking that they please refund my transactions, because they were a scam. Notoriously, they did not respond. Many forum pages talk about how bad Cash App is about scams and dealing with them, and they feel no responsibility toward victims of internet crime. I should have got my money back under the " Merchant didn't hold his end of the bargain rule '' by default, by providing no service, no product, except stealing my money. I emailed CashApp multiple times regarding this issue just to get an automated " sorry, nothing we can do '' message. Taking the loss for the scam is going to seriously damage me financially. Please Help.

I was frauded by cash app. This last week I had funds in my cash app set to the side specifically to pay my rent. I was waiting for my check to clear so that I could pay rent & pull the remainder out. On XX/XX/XXXX I went to use my card only to find out over {$1200.00} had been spent without my authorization. There was 3 separate transactions in the amounts of {$270.00}, {$500.00}, & {$430.00} with XXXX. I immediately reported the card stolen & reached out to cash app. I was issued a new card & was told to try & call target to have them cancel the transactions. XXXX told me there was nothing they could do, so I needed to call cash app & wait on them. XX/XX/XXXX I woke up to yet another transaction being withdrawn, even with {$0.00} in the account, this time in the amount of {$500.00} from the card they had just issued, which I have never even used. I then XXXX that card & again reached out letting cash app know there was fraud being done. Once the card was XXXX I really was able to see there was little to no customer service available to me. I filed a police report and filed a complaint with the XXXX hoping to get someone to help me with getting my money back. This same day there was an attempt of {$460.00} which was finally declined! The next day, XX/XX/XXXX, I had woken up with another {$270.00} & {$430.00} being successfully charged to my account. This placed me in the negatives. After reaching out again for assistance I received nothing. I then had my pending check in the amount of {$780.00} cleared & then applied to the negative balance. This has left me with {$0.00}, 0 answers, & still a negative balance. Cash app has done nothing to assist me in getting my money back or letting me know the status of my complaint.

I lost access to my account with Cash App ( Square ) XX/XX/2020 due to my phone number changing and losing access the email attached to that account. I have attempted to recover my account regain access with Cash app ( Square ) Now for the second time.

On XX/XX/XXXX I found out my CashApp Cash care was lost. I immediately blocked my card via the mobile App, ordered a replacement card, and found out there were 17 unauthorized transactions on my account totaling {$2000.00}. These charges occurred between XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. I immediately contacted Customer Support through the App ( as there was no phone number to contact customer service ). The response was I will be receiving an email in 48 hours. I received an email same day XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX PST requesting additional information about my claim, which I responded to on XX/XX/XXXX at noon. On XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX PST I received an email from cashapp support, requesting additional information. I responded same day at XXXX. At XXXX of XX/XX/XXXX I received a response denying my claim. When I questioned how 17 fraudulent transactions with multiple Merchants could be investigated and concluded in 1 hour 17 minutes, I was told my account has been closed and that I can re-file a claim. I asked again, why my claim was denied, and the response was that Cashapp did not get a response from me in over a week. That is not true, because I just explained the timeline and Ive email thread, with time and date stamp. I know you cant investigate 17 unauthorized charges from numerous Merchants in 77 minutes! I also bought 12 company stocks through cashapp mobile app. When I asked whatll happen with my stocks in a closed account situation, I was told to sell my stocks and cash out. It is illegal to force someone to sell their stocks against their will ; and this is what Square as an organization is doing. I have since re-filed the claim and cashapp hasnt responded. Thus, making me seek help alternatively.

My cash app user name is : $ XXXX My phone was stolen earlier this month ( XXXX ) and I filed a formal police report, I was able to recover my phone and once I did, I noticed several funds missing from my cash app account. I then reviewed the itemized transactions and I noticed that I same individual that stole my phone ( XXXX XXXX ) was listed on several of my cash app transactions along with another individual that I don't know named ( XXXX XXXX ) my phone was used to iniate funds transfers from my cash app account to XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX for a grand total of {$2100.00} my account was almost completely wiped out. I immediately filed a police report and contacted cash app with the confidence that they would investigate the matter and issue my funds back to me, and per federal guidelines provide a provisional credit for the funds while the investigation is ongoing. I have not been contacted by cash app requesting any further info from me, they haven't asked for a police report number or anything whatsoever. I'm not sure how they can possibly conduct an investigation with very little information. If that's the only info they want to conduct an investigation then it's virtually impossible to not approve my claim and resolve it in my favor because any other outcome besides that would advise me that no investigation could have possibly been conducted and I would hate to find out that they just deny most claims without any type of investigation. I demand some answers, I request and demand a provisional credit while the investigation is in process. I've also submitted an affidavit stating that I had nothing to do with these funds leaving my account and these transactions were completely unauthorized.

I have a CashApp account. It is connected to my XXXX banking account. Prior to XX/XX/XXXX, I regularly transferred money from my CashApp account to my XXXX account XXXX XXXX XXXX via their 2-day transfer option, without paying any fees. In XX/XX/XXXX, I started running into problems using XXXX to transfer money out of my CashApp account. I have made 7 attempts to XXXX. Of the 7, only 1 was successful. The 1 successful attempt occurred when I opted for an instant transfer and paid the associated processing fee. Every attempt to complete a 2-day transfer has been returned to me with a note that the transfer was denied by XXXX. However, this is the same XXXX who apparently accepted an instant Cashout with no trouble. The XXXX attempts are below : 1 ) Unsuccessful - {$1700.00} via 2-day on XXXX 2 ) Unsuccessful - {$1700.00} via 2-day on XXXX 3 ) Successful - {$1.00} via instant on XXXX 4 ) Unsuccessful - {$1600.00} via 2-day on XXXX 5 ) Unsuccessful - {$1.00} via 2-day on XXXX 6 ) Unsuccessful - {$10.00} via 2-day on XXXX 7 ) Unsuccessful - {$1600.00} via 2-day on XXXX -- > This was cancelled by CashApp representative XXXX XXXX in response to my request for assistance in getting my XXXX successfully completed. I contacted XXXX on XXXX. They checked my account and assured me there is nothing blocking my incoming transfer. I have attempted to contact CashApp on XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, and XX/XX/XXXX. They only have email support available, there is no one I can speak to. Additionally, they have not been helpful. They have actually gone through and rejected my XXXX requests or given me the steps to submit one although they can see the submitted ( and denied XXXX request right in the queue.

To whom it may concern, My name is XXXX XXXX and on Saturday, XX/XX/2021 - I woke up to several notifications that my CashApp account had authorized multiple transactions to various people that I did NOT know and did NOT authorize. I promptly called my bank to inquire about what to do and to cancel my debit card immediately. The scammers attempted to send upwards of {$1200.00} but only {$300.00} went though because I only had enough funds in my account for that amount to go through. I realize that it looks like I authorized the transaction, but I did NOT. Someone hacked into MY CashApp account and sent themselves money. I emailed Cash App Support on XX/XX/2021 and received a response from " XXXX '' on XX/XX/2021. I filed a complaint to dispute the charges and gave them the names of the three individuals who were sent money from " me '' because clearly they were part of a larger scam and needed to be banned or have their account suspended. The next day, XX/XX/2021, someone from CashApp named XXXX informed me that there was nothing that they could do to get my money back. I have since closed my CashApp account and deleted the app. I changed EVERY password to prevent something like this from happening again. I am in the process of reporting CashApp to the XXXX XXXX XXXX. I am sad and frustrated that CashApp allowed this security breach to happen and failed to help me whatsoever. I am a graduate student in a clinical psychology program and am already under a significant amount of financial stress. I can not emphasize enough how I DID NOT AUTHORIZE THE PAYMENTS. I was asleep and woke up to my worst nightmare. Please let me know what you need from me so we can resolve this. Thank you, XXXX XXXX

Hello : On Saturday, XX/XX/XXXX : My son, XXXX was trying to open an account with Cash App dba Square under his account name " XXXX XXXX XXXX '' & was told to test his Account by sending Money to someone which was me & for me to send the money right back to him. Instead of the Money coming " directly back to him off of " my own '' Cash App Debit Card, they withdrew the Money out of my Checking/Debit Card Account & the transactions failed several times which caused my Checking Account to be overdrawn. After further discussion & the Cash App Rep still trying to figure out the problem, I was told that they would go ahead & put the Money " right back '' in my account but they never did. Instead, they sent me a Text Message saying that my Money would be deposited back into my Checking/Debit Card Account by Wednesday, XX/XX/XXXX. They phoned me several times again & I told them I wanted my Money returned to me ASAP! On Thursday, XX/XX/XXXX, Cash App dba Square, tried to withdrawl the {$340.00} again. I then contacted my Bank & they said they would file a Fraud Claim & do an Investigation. As of today, Friday, XX/XX/XXXX, I still have not received my {$340.00} back. I reached back out to Cash App dba Square the same day asking them why I still have not received my Money as they originally promised on Saturday, XX/XX/XXXX. They responded back to me via e-mail saying that it takes several days for them to review the situation & in some cases they may not Refund the Money. I did not authorize them to take any Money out of my Checking/Debit Card Account. Within a few days, my son did receive his Money back while I am still waiting. I have already filed a Complaint with my Bank & the XXXX

The company " Square '' that I have used to charge my client 's credit cards for my services, claimed that I had a second account with a large dispute on it totaling {$2100.00} and that I was responsible for this amount of money. They therefore withheld {$360.00} worth of my most recent charges and had planned to take any future funds that I would collect from clients until the dispute balance reached XXXX. They initially refused to give me any information about why they thought this second account was mine. After more than a dozen calls, emails, the filing of a police report and the filing of an FTC report, they told me they still believed this other account was mine and they provided the email address for the other account. The email address was not mine. The other entity 's email address contained my first name and the field in which I work ( psychology ). I filed a second FTC report and they decided that it was a case of " stolen identity ''. They have since refunded my {$360.00} and " disassociated '' the other account with mine. However, they still refuse to provide me any information about why they thought this account was mine ( other than the remotely similar address information ) and they still maintain my information was " stolen ''. Given Square transactions involve my bank account, I need to know what if any, of my sensitive information has been stolen. If it has not been stolen, and they simply went the route of putting me through the many, many hours of work because it was easier for them to collect the money they themselves had lost via the dispute on this other account and blame it on someone ( me ) with a slightly similar email address, I would like to know that as well.

On XXXX at XXXX I couldn't withdraw money from my Cashapp card through an ATM. The ATM kept declining the card. There is no Customer Service number on the back of my Cash App card. So I googled the number, and asked XXXX. XXXX said CashApp 's customer support number was XXXX. I called XXXX and a man answered saying : " Thank you for calling CashApp customer Support. How may I help you? '' He had a XXXX XXXX accent. I told him why I was calling. He asked me to hold. He came back and said my card was declined because there was a block on it due to fraudulent activity. He said he could help square the problem away. He told me to go to the XXXX XXXX and download XXXX quick support. I did. Then he told me to go to CashApp and chose the option in the bottom corner to scan my card. Then he told me to go to the app and start broadcast. Then go back to Cashapp to link bank accounts. My XXXX XXXX account was there, he told me to delete it and re-enter it, with my account and routing number, then he told me to move {$500.00} from my cash app to my XXXX account. I did that. Then he asked if it went through told him it did. Then he told me to enter XXXX with an access code, then next. He said it was fixed. Then he asked to see the chip on my Cashapp card through the scan app, he said great, everything is fixed, and in 5 minutes I would be able to sue the card again. Five minutes goes by and I see {$1.00} in my account. I called XXXX. They said the charges are pending not posted. They said to dispute it and try to get my money back when the charges have posted. XXXX returned just {$550.00} to my account. I filed a police report w/the XXXX, OH police dept. The detective has not returned my calls.

On XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX I contacted support at casbapp and explained h wanted to dispute a charge. I allowed a so called friend to use my phone to call his ride and he sent him self money. Wasn't authorized but they did nothing to help. My bank said it's cashapp who needs to fix it and cashapp says it's my bank. That brings me to yesterday. XX/XX/XXXX I was given {$45.00} from a friend to go shopping at kale a local store. It took roughly six hours to make it available. I cashed it out. Now I already did my shopping. Later that evening I went to dinner with friends and tried to send my friend XXXX {$50.00} for my cost the if the meal. Cashapp abruptly refunded the money my balance " for my protection ''. So I tried to cash out the funds I just loaded from the same account and card and it then locked my account. They then over the next 8 hours 3 different times told me I could access my funds and first I needed to cash it out onto a new card. The I needed to use with my casbapp card and lastly well you can try but I can't say it'll work. I was told for 8 to 10 hours I would access it within 24. Now that we are half way there it's changed to 24-48. They are being dishonest and there is no transparency. How is this not unjust enrichment? Here is the entire chat. At one point when I explain this caused me to be cited by local police for theft of service and how important it is for a business that allows it self to be used as a banking service to hold them self to that same standard and the rep clearly responds mocking me. I have never gotten so much as a speeding ticket and tonignt I looked like a XXXX or XXXX XXXX because cashapp decided I am not allowed to have my money or pay for dinner.

I was scammed by cash app out of {$4500.00} on XX/XX/20. I called them initially to report a missing refund that hadn't been credited to my account for {$18.00}. I was told I needed to verify my identity and my account by adding money to my cash app, making a payment to them, assuring me my money was not actually coming out of my account, that that was a part of the verification process. The money did in fact come out of my account. The initial amount the took was {$1700.00}. I was told in order to get that amount back I needed to make another payment of {$49.00}, which I did, in a desperate attempt to get back my money. They then instructed me to purchase XXXX gift cards, total amount {$1000.00}, so that they could use the XXXX cards to secure my money, {$1700.00}, and they would refund me all the money, for a total of {$2700.00}. I did what they asked, only to be told I needed to purchase XXXX gift cards for the same reason, in the amount of {$1300.00}, plus {$500.00} more dollars, total of {$1800.00}, because I requested they refund my money back on the cash app itself, and that in doing so, I caused all the money to be stuck in their server. I was promised a total of {$5000.00}, which included a {$500.00} inconvenience fee for me for their so called mistake. I never received a XXXX of my money back. Not only did I not receive the original {$18.00} I called about, but they scammed me out of {$4500.00}. I have filed a complaint with the Federal Trade Commission and filed a police report. Is there any way I can get my money back and these people be prosecuted for fraud/scam. I also have first and last names of so called managers that I spoke with and also multiple telephone numbers.

On XX/XX/XXXX, I initiated a Transfer of Assets from my CasApp account to my XXXX account. The transfer consisted of XXXX shares of XXXX stock. As of XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX had submitted my transfer request to CashApp, and my XXXX account showed a completion date of XX/XX/XXXX. I found this odd as both websites stated that transfers generally take 3-5 business days. I contacted XXXX twice via email chat in the span between XXXX to check on the status. Both times I was assured that everything was fine with my transfer and they were just waiting on CashApp to respond. The shares were not transferred as of XXXX, so I called XXXX to check. Again, I was reassured that everything with my transfer was fine on their end, they were simply waiting on CashApp, who had yet to respond to the request by this time. I have attempted to contact CashApp several times during this time span as well. I sent emails on XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX, XXXX and XXXX. To date, I have received one response on XXXX, and it was a generic copy/paste email that did not address my concerns directly. I contacted chat support through the app on XXXX, but was told that my question would have to be answered via email. I also received a generic email as a response, stating they'd be in touch with me in the future. I have tried calling their customer service phone number numerous times, but it rings once and then goes to dead air. My shares/money have been tied up for a month now. I'm unable to buy/sell/trade with my CashApp as it could cause the transfer to fail, and possibly create additional problems. This is now causing me financial hardship as I can not touch my own money and would like to sell off some of my shares to take a profit.

I was selling a vehicle The person I was selling the vehicle only had funds through unemployment cards or one unemployment card and a debit card so we couldn't transfer all the money at one time so her friend had the bright idea to open a square account square is like a business account when you have a business and you sell stuff so I did that all the money transferred into my account and then I got a call that evening saying that they needed certain information because it seemed fraudulent because it was such a big transaction while I was sitting in my bank with this girl personally so they said they needed all my transaction history in my bank history and all this other stuff so I ended up getting it but by then it was too late and they said they deactivated my account which I still was able to get on there and see that the money was there but it did not go into my bank so they said they were putting a 90-day hold on it Well 90 days was XXXX then I ended up getting two more emails one saying that my hold was over and my money would be transferred into my bank which never happened then I got a second email saying that they still were not doing business with me so I don't know how to take that and I have all the emails and all that good stuff hopefully it's still here but I am still waiting I keep checking my bank account every day which this is tearing me up cuz I was going to pay off some bills That's why I sold the vehicle this is so crazy if I could get any kind of help because I've tried calling a million times they have no customer service I've been hung up on twice I don't know how I got through but there is a number somewhere if anybody could help me this would be great!

On Wednesday the XXXX of XXXX I received a cash transfer for gas from a friends CashApp Cash Card to my Card. The transaction cleared and became available funds on my card instantly. I tried the next day Thursday XX/XX/2020 to " Cash Out '' those funds to my XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX personal checking account. And have attempted every day following. Now for more than 7 days I have been trying to get this small {$30.00} off this Cash.App Cashcard. My card is for some unknown reason disabled and every time I enable it, it disables itself immediately. I try to cash out the balance to my bank and it says I have no money, I have sent an email every single day and got XXXX canned response stating theyre having connection issues. I have sent a message every day since with no response what so ever. I have done a search of the internet and find there are thousands of complaints with the same problem beginning at the same time as me. There terms of service state that they are not a bank and therefore have no obligation to honor any financial policy that is expected from a financial institution. However, they are holding my money, as well as everyone else 's money in a regulated US bank account at XXXX XXXX XXXX and using XXXXXXXX XXXX as their pass through. Both of those transactions are definitely regulated by both Federal and State laws. According to their status page today XX/XX/2020 every thing is working and 'GOOD TO GO ' yet again I can not make the withdrawal or transfer, no ATM access, not able to use the card to make a purchase. They hide with no public phone number and automated response emails. You can not contact these people other than that they are owned by XXXX XXXX

According to Federal Law, XXXX is legal. I opened an online business. I used Square as my vehicle of payment. After 2 sales totaling {$950.00}, they deactivated my account saying it was a high risk business. I understand, XXXX is still misunderstood, but it helps millions of people deal with pain & anxiety. So I am passionate about helping people feel better. If Square doesn't understand that it is legal, that it is NOT trying to hurt the public ( quite the opposite ) & they consider it high risk, fine. But don't keep my money for 3 months with NO resolve ability. It is impossible to reach them. OH yes, sales you get a human. Anything involving a deactivated account, they tell you to look at the first email. I called their numbers ( 3 of them ) on 5 different occasions over the past 2 months, all lead you to nowhere but frustration. That email tells you to go to their help online. Help online tells you to go to the email. Contacted the sales rep I bought it from on XX/XX/XXXX. When deactivated, I sent him an email on XX/XX/XXXX. No response. I called him on XX/XX/10, XXXX. No call back. I am beyond words. On XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX XXXX attempted to transfer to my XXXX XXXX account. On XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX XXXX said that XXXX XXXX put a hold on it. I have the documentation. After months of frustration ... I am putting in a complaint. This is just not right. I did searches on XXXX. Thousands of others are complaining, many attorneys. The experience has harmed me and my business as well as many others. When is too big not acceptable for consumers. When the consumers are lied to to get the business and then they pull the plug when they feel like it. It is just not right.

This payment was supposed to be for a deposit towards the rental. It was Fraud. They mislead me with false charges towards a rental that never existed. I've tried to contact these scammers multiple times for a refund. No response or refund. This has caused a hardship. This amount goes with the other disputes i filed in the past towards the rental lease. Its all fraud and was a scam. This case should combine with my previous disputes as one combined request of fraud. Id appreciate it if you reopen the case and label this as fraud. I have sent all of my records and documents to the email prior to this. Here are the additional payments that i recognized in addition to previosu amounts i filed a dispute for.

I started a XXXX XXXX XXXX and since business is picking up I deduced to use a more useful way of tracking my payments instead of using cash app. A colleague suggested square so on XX/XX/XXXX I signed up for an XXXX account to be able to send and accept payments. As your account is created they walk you through steps of adding your bank account and making sample invoices. On XX/XX/XXXX me and a colleague came to an XXXX agreement that totaled out o be {$3500.00}. She was sent an invoice on this date from square and I believe she paid by ACH from her account. On XX/XX/XXXX square emailed me and stated " you can still continue to accept payments. However, until we can confirm your information, your funds will be held in your Square account. You will not be able to transfer your funds into your bank account and they will not be accessible on your Square Card. '' I logged into my account and it sent me to a page with different questions and link to be able tp upload any documentation. I answered each question honestly and to the best of my ability, I also upload my CA XXXX XXXX, CA drivers license, bank statements, CA Secretary of State papers, and proof of EIN from the irs. All of this info was submitted on XX/XX/XXXX, they sent an email on XX/XX/XXXX that my information is now being reviewed. In under a hour my account was blocked, and I can no loner use any of their services. my 1 {$3500.00} payment they told me will now be on a 90 day hold an i can not get my funds until after XX/XX/XXXX. All of my info and documentation is correct and can be verified. They gave me no other explanation and they also have no customer service so you can not talk to anyone.

In early XXXX I closed on my first home. In weeks leading up to my close date, I started buying things for my house including appliances. To save money I found a refrigerator on XXXX XXXX. I reached out to the seller and got a timely response. They asked if I could pay via XXXX XXXX which I thought I could, but when they sent the request through I realized I didn't have it sent up so I asked if we could complete the transaction over the Cash App. I gave them my username, they sent the request, and I completed. The subject line and description of the XXXX listing said delivery was available and I confirmed with the seller that I didn't need it to be delivered for a couple of weeks and they agreed. I reached out and over the several days before my close date and move I got a whole bunch of runaround. Eventually, the day after I moved into my home, the seller stopped responding to my texts all together. I disputed the transaction with Cash App and tried requesting a refund from the seller that they of course ignored. Cash App basically said there was nothing they could do since the transaction was authorized and already came out of my account. I also disputed the charge with XXXX XXXX which is the account the money came out of via Cash App for this fridge. They credited the money back to me while they investigated and now over a month later reversed it and took the money back. I got no fridge and I'm now out {$220.00} and both of these institutions are abdicating their responsibility to consumers. In the attachments I provided the email from Cash App, the two letters from XXXX, the XXXX messages with the seller, and the texts with the seller. Please help me.

My name is XXXX XXXX. I live on XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX. However, I lived in XXXX XXXX from XX/XX/XXXX to XX/XX/XXXX, where I had a XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX car, which I left there before moving to XXXX XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX, I transferred an amount of US dollar {$330.00} via Cash App to a friend, XXXX XXXX, who lives on XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX, XXXX to pay for the car 's annual tax. Just after the transaction, XXXX realized that his cell phone dis-functioned to pick up the money. Then I chose to cancel the transaction and return the money back to my account. On XX/XX/XXXX, I called Cash App customer services to cancel the transaction and transfer the money back into my account, unfortunately, it never happened as expected.The representative I spoke to via telephone number XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, The representative deliberately, gave me wrong directions to purportedly transfer {$330.00} back to my account. As soon as I finished talking to customer services, I checked my bank account for any credit, instead, I realized the debits of total {$2600.00} total in four different transactions of {$110.00} ; {$100.00} ; {$1200.00} ; and {$1200.00} the same day ( XX/XX/XXXX ) I tried to call Cash App customer services many times to get the money back, but they asked me to pay {$500.00} to get the {$2600.00} back, or buy a XXXX XXXX card, then send the number on it. The also asked me to go to the closest XXXX XXXX or XXXX XXXX store to ask for the transaction. They finally started hanging the phone up on me.Actually, they have closed my Cash App account ; I have no one else to ask help from, other than Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.

I signed up for a monthly subscription with XXXX for roughly {$15.00} I immediately noticed the service did not work. And contacted customer service to make a resolution. Once I realized its the site error I requested a refund at what point I noticed I was overcharged. They charged me {$120.00} I did not receive a receipt at sign up or cancellation receipt. I am only able to screen shot the actual website showing I have deactivated the service and still have my card details on this site despite me asking them to remove them. This company is fraudulent as they are not providing the service they advertise. They are refusing to refund me the Yearly subscription they charged me for or adjust it to the monthly subscription I opted for. I attempted to contact cashapp who has lead me down a long road asking for receipts when they have the information clearly listed on their transaction history. I am not able to provide anything more than the screenshot that is available to me. CashApp a subsidiary of Square Inc. Is not able to help me with this transaction. I am not even able to contact anyone by phone only email which is taking days to resolve. And at this point I am at a dead end as I do not have a receipt because this transaction was fraud therefore I am being told I can not be helped. CashApp Customer service is not making any attempt to resolve this issue where my account has been overcharged. Only asking me for information they already have in their system. I just want this charge reversed I have attached a copy of the transcripts with XXXX, CashApp, and the Card they still have on file that I want deleted as I am afraid of more unauthorized charges.

NOT A DUPLICATE : I can not consider this case closed because Cash app reverse their decision on my fraudulent claim and debited my Cash app. My Cash app balance is - {$750.00}. I am appealing their decision for a disputed transaction from Cash App dated XX/XX/XXXX through XXXX XXXX XXXX. Cash App debited {$750.00} from my XXXX XXXX banking account that they initially returned ( {$750.00} ) to my account due to fraudulent activity on XX/XX/XXXX ( ref : XXXX : ref ). I am a XXXX y/o widow. My service-connected husband of 44 years of marriage, served in the XXXX XXXX, died XX/XX/XXXX ( 6 years ago ). I live alone and I manage all my affairs by my self. However, I am asking for your mercy to reverse your decision and credit my account of {$750.00}. As stated in my initial claim letter, I downloaded a " XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX '' app that gave the hacker access to my Cash App account. At that moment, I believed this " fake '' XXXX XXXX agent was a legitimate XXXX XXXX agent. It is unfortunate that this hacker has no respect for the elderly and willfully exploit them. I immediately notified Cash app of the fraudulent claim and they returned the money to my account. However, on XX/XX/XXXX, Cash app reversed their decision and debited my XXXX XXXX account to collect the {$750.00}. I am on a fixed income and I need my {$750.00} to pay bills. I must save for emergencies as well because I am a widow and do not have the financial support of my husband. I am educating myself on recognizing fraudulent activity, such as phishing, which also happened to me. Thank you in advance for reversing your decision and return {$750.00} to my XXXX XXXX account.

I became a customer of Cashapp in XXXX. The debit card info that I entered to do transactions is tied to only one of my XXXX XXXX accounts. I have a total of 3 XXXX XXXX accounts. Upon initiating my first transaction to send fund out, a message popped up that said : " select the account to want to use ''. I was shocked that it said that because the debit card is tied to only one of my accounts. They ( Cashapp ) had access to all three of my accounts and showed the balance in each account. How did they get access to my other accounts and how would they even know that I had other accounts when the debit card is connected to only one account? I needed to get the transaction done, so I selected the account that I wanted to use. After doing that, I called XXXX XXXX and verified that the debit card I used with Cashapp is tied to only one of my accounts. Then I started asking Cashapp how were they able to know about my other accounts, when my debit card is connected to only one account. Cashapp started sending me generic responses. A few days passed, so I called XXXX XXXX again and they confirmed that my debit card is tied to only one account. I explained to them what happened and told them that there must be some type of security breach for Cashapp to access all of my accounts. XXXX representative said they will check into it, but I haven't heard anything back from them. Again, I contacted Cashapp with the same question. They have replied to me several times but with only generic responses, as if I am communicating with robots. I advised them that I was going to file a complaint because I did not give them any authority to access my other accounts.

On Sunday XX/XX/2021 I noticed that cashapp had closed my account without any type of explanation. Unfortunately Ive been investing in stock and bitcoin on the platform for quite some time. I had about XXXX bitcoin which at the time was valued at around {$42000.00}. When I saw that my account had been closed I tried to sell by bitcoin hand withdrawal the funds back into my bank account. The first withdrawal that I did was for {$4000.00} at XXXX on XX/XX/2021. This withdrawal was not sent to my bank and it was subtracted from my cashapp balance. I researched a little online and found out that sometimes for larger transactions cashapp may not be able to instantly deposit it so I tried doing smaller amounts and a few of them went through. I did several {$1000.00} withdrawals around the same time as the first one and some went through and others didnt. Im total I attempted to withdrawal {$25000.00} which is the weekly limit for withdrawals on my account and only {$9200.00} was deposited into my account. Additionally i still have {$13000.00} on my cashapp account that I am not able to withdrawal because I am at the weekly limit. I tried contacting cashapp about this major problem and all I got was a auto response from their support. I also tried calling them but they do not have a customer support number. I contacted my bank to see if maybe the transfers were just on hold and my bank told me that cashapp reversed multiple transactions. Im total I am missing {$29000.00} that cashapp seems to be refusing to give me. This is my savings and they are denying me the right to withdrawal this money and are not attempting to help me resolve this issue.

On XX/XX/XXXX, I was notified via push notification from the CashApp app that I had been charged {$180.00} from a XXXX store in XXXX, CA ( XXXX ). I immediately reported my card stolen so the compromised card could be deactivated, and I could receive a new card number, changed my PIN, and contacted support. I was initially told there was nothing CashApp could do, and they refused to file a dispute. After reaching support by phone, the associate apologized and allowed me to file a dispute. I received an email asking some questions, which I quickly answered and havent received any follow up as of XX/XX/XXXX, despite being told resolution could take up to 10 days. On XX/XX/XXXX, while still waiting for my new Cash Card to arrive in the mail, I received 2 push notifications that I had been charged {$60.00}, and {$180.00} in 2 separate transactions at a XXXX store in XXXX, CA ( XXXX ). I immediately contacted support again, and since the charges were still pending at this time, I was told to reach out to the merchant, which I did. XXXX told me to contact my card issuer. After the charges completed, I was then able to file another dispute. All transactions occurred in California, while I live in Alabama, and was in Alabama at the time all transactions took place. I was still in physical possession of the card at the time all transactions took place. At the time of the 2nd and 3rd transactions, I still had not even received my replacement card and had changed my pin number. I also have all security features made available to me by CashApp enabled and activated. I followed all steps as described at : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX

I had made an initial complaint about cash app closing my account and not responding back to my emails. Cash app however replied to the complaint i made through consumer financial protection Bureau. In their ( cash app ) response it stated that ; 1.My cash app account was temporarily suspended 2. That it ( cash app ) held my funds ( {$7400.00} ) pending their investigation 3. That my account is closed after their investigation. Cash app however did not state how I am getting my funds that were held before their investigation in their response. Anytime I email cash app I get an email response from an agent called XXXX who is basically telling me that I will not be getting my funds and that I should move on. Cash app claims that my account violated their terms and condition. Under Cash app terms and conditions number 9, it state that " Any pending transactions at the time of termination, closure, or suspension of your Account will be settled. Any funds that we are holding in custody for you at the time of termination, suspension, or closure of your Account, less any applicable fees, ( 1 ) may be made available for you to cash out in Squares discretion and subject to the other conditions in these Cash Terms, and ( 2 ) we may require you to link a new bank account that has not been associated with your Account to cash out such funds.. If an investigation is pending at the time of closure, we may hold your funds until resolution of the investigation. '' I understand at this point that my account is closed, I just want to know how I am getting my remaining funds of {$7400.00} unless the company Cash app intends to keep it.

My complaint is against Cash App on XX/XX/XXXX my son XXXX XXXX put XXXX into Cash App for me. XXXX XXXX his mother. However, instead of using my bank information, they submitted it to a card of a former contractor. the card was used to send them money. The card belonged to XXXX XXXX. However, the money was supposed to be sent to me-XXXX XXXX. I have our entire conversation in a file below. Cash app asked me to call the bank to get the charges reversed, knowing the bank couldn't give me any information because I wasn't the cardholder. I spoke with XXXX XXXX and she closed the account in XX/XX/XXXX. She s [ spoke to the bank XXXX XXXX ( Prepaid account ) They said she closed the account XX/XX/XXXX and there hasn't been any activity on the card since then. The bank said in situations like that the bank returns the money with 2 days to the sender ( Cash App ). Gave Cash App the information XXXX customer service Rep said they saw that money was deposited in the account twice. XXXX completely ignored the fact that my son sent the money too me. Someone keyed in the wrong information. Now they are asking me to get proof from the bank. Which they can't because it's not my account. I asked XXXX XXXX to do it so I could attach it to the thread as XXXX asked, but the bank said they couldn't do it. I'm frustrated with Cash App. I removed XXXX XXXX 's card so they would not make the same mistake again. My son sent me that money for food and a pair of used shoes because I injured my knee. Cash App refuses to do the work and deleted the refund so the money wouldn't come back to the sender. See the attachment for full conversations.

my name is XXXX XXXX I used cashapp as a cash transaction to another consumer. This guy was advertising a laptop on the website XXXX and only asked that I pay for shipping because he had purchased a better one and just wanted to help someone less fortunate. He sais he just wanted me to write a small paragraph about whay I needed the laptop, He then asked me to send him XXXX dollars but not through XXXX because he wanted to send it through another mailing service so I could get it quicker, He then asked me to text him my address so I gave him my pobox and he sent him the transaction. Right after that he told me it was a problem with the transaction. He then said he received it and would text me back when he ships the package. I then tried to call but no answer. Then I requested a refund through cashapp and he denied it an blocked me for requesting another refund. I then contacted cashapp but they said it was nothing they could do. I went back and forth with them for a couple days before opening up a claim with the XXXX. they gave the XXXX the same answer that it was nothing they could do. I didn't accept this and asked the XXXX to pursue further. This went on for weeks and finally the XXXX closed my case and said if want to continue to try and get better results and my refund I should contact this company. Its not just about the money more than the principle that cash app doesn't have a better system to protect consumers from fraud and their not held responsible to get their consumers refund back. this is thenumber he gave me XXXX XXXX XXXX his cash app is XXXX XXXX. I also have text messages if you need them

Cash app ( square inc ) has money of mine that they refuse to give me access to. I got a new phone and number and was unable to access my account because I couldnt get the text message cash app sends when trying to login. I contacted cash app and was told to set up a new account theyd go from there with verifying my identity. I did that. With this new account I had to enter the last 4 of my social security number, date of birth and zip code. This is the exact same info I had to enter when I created the previous account. Cash app asks for none of that info when verifying my identify. Then they come back and say they can not give me access to my account, the decision will not be reversed and they will not give me any further information. I went as far as to call XXXX XXXX XXXX to have them reactivated the old number just so I could log into the cash app account. With the first attempt cash app logged me in but requested I add a debit card. I tried. It errored 3 times until finally it said I had tried adding the card too many times. When I went back to login with the phone number cash app prompted me to open up yet another account with the telephone number from my old account. They dissociated my phone number from the account Cash app is now holding on to my money and refuses to take any further steps to resolve this issue the account is tied to my social. I can even verify the last few transactions. Cash app can not Just decide theyre going to keep app users money and not offer any type of way to get it. I want my money. After reading experiences from others, cash app ( square , inc ) does this to lots of users.

Follow up to Complaint Number XXXX. Remains unresolved. Cash App Reference Number : ref : XXXX : ref I am unable to access my Cash App account after purchasing a new phone and installing app. There is a serious disconnect between what the Social Media Team on XXXX is telling me and what the CFPB is telling me. One telling me to set up new account. The other to request password be reset. Which is it? I have submitted information to have password reset. I have also tried to set up new account. In each case I receive pop up on phone that states " unable to sign on on this device. '' No other financial institution. No bank. No Credit Union. No Investment House. No P2P payment system requires this or makes users go through this process. Response from Social Media Team on XXXX. XXXX XX/XX/XXXX. Again, you need to create a new account using a new phone number or email address. The reason you are having trouble making a new account, is due to you likely attempting to use the phone number and/or email address linked to your other account. Response from CFPB Monday XX/XX/XXXX As set out above, after several unsuccessful attempts to log into your Cash App account with your PIN, the PIN is automatically locked. Cash App Support has offered to assist you with resetting your PIN. At the time of this writing, we are currently awaiting your responses to the email sent to you on XX/XX/2021 in order to verify your account information, and once verified, your PIN will be reset. Please review this email correspondence and respond at your earliest convenience. We hope this response satisfactorily addresses your complaint.

Square.com is attempting to deduct {$600.00} from my checking account. They are charing it to my square business account, XXXX XXXX. It is registered to my email address of XXXX. I have contacted the company multiple times. I received a VERY vague email from them stating that the funds were owed on another account under the name XXXX XXXX or ( XXXX XXXX ). A name that is not associated with my company in ANY way. That person as I researched does not even live in the same county. XXXX is simply attempting to deduct the money based SOLEY on the last name. I have argued with them, sent letters, and emails. Their staff who work in the financial department do not even take phone calls, why should be illegal. XXXX was forced to comply and take calls, Square should as well ... especially when scamming money from businesses. I want the harassment to stop. My company, XXXX XXXX, DOES NOT owe {$600.00} and the name XXXX XXXX is NOT affiliated with us in ANY way. XXXX is simply using the last name, which matches mine, to attempt to recover money they lost on another account that is in no way associated with my or the business. The account under " XXXX XXXX '' is not linked to my SSN, DLN, ADDRESS, bank account. On XXXX Square downright refused to allow me to speak with Account Recovery. The customer service rep, XXXX, was less than helpful. I was told, after finally being able to get through to a live person that there " account recovery '' department can't take calls. I was advised to email them. I have emailed them numerous times with zero response. I have attached the only emails I have ever received from them

I get my unemployment on the XXXX. I was a victim of fraudulent charges 6 times within 2 weeks. It has been a nightmare dealing with cardholder services!! My card was deactivated for know reason. I submitted complaint & it was finally reactivated after 2 months of being treated like a criminal, not able to get to my money, waiting on hold for hours to talk to customer service/supervisor, then hung up on and nobody having answers as to what is going on with my disputes or how to find out. XX/XX/2020, I was robbed of {$400.00} fraudulently charged from a Cash app in California. I live in PA, and don't even have an acct with this business!! I have been waiting for my {$400.00} to be credited back to me. This inconvenience has put me so much more far behind on my bills. Besides the fact 1 week prior {$200.00} was fraudulently charged. My cable/internet has been shut off, my phone that I've had for 20+ yrs was shut off and had to get a new phone/number. I'm now in the process of being evicted and have court date in XXXX. I called XXXX and was told to call back end of XX/XX/2020 to check status of {$400.00} Cash app dispute. I never received anything in the mail and was told it was denied and case closed!! There was No investigation done and nothing sent to me! This is disturbing and disgraceful that this is ok!! I'm looking into contacting legal help to sue. I want to know what was done and why I wasn't contacted. I never heard of this cash app until this happened to me. I never had an acct with cash app and dont know anyone in California!! I need my money that was fraudulently taken from me and given back.

In reference to a previous complaint XXXX I received a generic answer, however SQUARE has still not performed and is still holding our money longer than the promised release date. Below is the email from Square where they stated we would get our money within 2 business days of XX/XX/2021. They are currently holding {$500000.00} of our money. Hello XXXX, Our Account Services team has reviewed your account and determined that we are no longer able to support processing your payments. Starting today, your account with Square is deactivated. Any funds currently in your account balance will be held for a period of 90 days, and are due to be released to you within two business days after XX/XX/2021. Please be advised that the release date and amount available for release are subject to change based on factors that include receiving additional chargebacks after this notice. In addition, chargeback activity on payments unrelated to these funds will result in additional debits from your linked bank account. For payments that havent been deposited ( generally in the last few days ), you may consider having your customer pay you by another method ( cash, check, etc. ) and refunding the payment ( s ) back to the original payment card ( s ). The full payment amount will be returned to your customer. Refunds can be issued within 120 days of the original payment date. To learn more about issuing refunds, please visit here.

On XX/XX/2020 I transferred {$500.00} from my external account to my cash app mobile checking account. CashApp is a subsidiary of Square Inc. For some reason still unknown, cash app lock my account. For some reason also still unknown my account remains locked. Despite several attempts to contact them, the following day and every three to four days since my account was locked I've received little to no support to resolve the situation and verify my identity which they said was necessary for me to regain access. On XX/XX/2020 again I attempted to contact Cash app for a status update on my case. Shortly after the same day I received a reply stating that my case had been closed due to non communication on my part. That was completely false, I have more than enough data to prove that was false. They have no dedicated phone lines to communicate with customer support, they only communicate via email. When reaching out to customer support they state that they will respond within 48 hours. That also was not done on their part. I also attempted to communicate with customer support via XXXX. After a lengthy discussion, they said nothing can be done until the investigation is complete. Since then they have avoided all my attempts to communicate with them. My funds of {$500.00} remain lock in the account. As you can imagine during these times under these circumstances, I am in dire need of that money and they have done very little, almost nothing to make those funds accessible to me. Also irrelevant to my case but I would like to state that several persons known to me have experience similar issues.

On XX/XX/2021 I purchased a fiber optic XXXX tree online and paid with my cash app debit card {$41.00}. On XX/XX/2021 I submitted a request to cash app to dispute the charge because I have not received the tree and I tried reaching out to the merchant but received email address not found message back. Which after submitting my request to cash app I decided to officially email a dispute request letter to cash app and signing as well and attach screenshots of the email address not found message that I received which I did that on XX/XX/2021. So after I emailed the dispute letter I decided to follow up with cash app to make sure they received everything they needed to start their investigation. So I chatted with them and the representative assured me that yes they did receive everything and that I would receive a response from them 10 days from the initial date that I submitted the dispute which was on XX/XX/XXXX so 10 days was XX/XX/XXXX and he also gave me a claim number for the dispute. On XX/XX/XXXX I contacted cash app to check on the status of the dispute and the representative told me that I didn't submit the request and therefore they haven't done anything so I needed to go start the whole process over again. So I said I have screenshots of me chatting with you guys a few days ago and I was assured that you guys had everything you needed. And then he left the chat so unfortunately I have not been able to get anywhere with them. The dispute letter that I emailed I had actually gotten it from your website the template. Here is my cash tag name XXXX XXXX and the case number is XXXX.

On XX/XX/2021 I tried to make a purchase at a XXXX XXXX in XXXX, CA around XXXX. The amount was for {$100.00}. I knew I had enough to cover that amount but when I used the cash card associated with the wallet it was declined. I opened the app to see what was going on and I had enough money however there was a message stating they had closed my account. I also had received an email which I will attach. Supposedly some transfer of funds, of which I had not done any, any time recently, went against some policy. They refuse to explain what allegedly occurred and they will not reply to any emails and they do not answer their customer service phone. They pretty much hide behind a wall. The email states for me to withdrawl my funds to a debit card or bank account. I have tried 3 different cards and the only bank account I have that can receive that type of a deposit are all denied. On Tuesday XX/XX/2021 I decided to take another route of which has proven helpful with other incidents and companies. I used XXXX. I did receive a response. They said they were limited in what they could do, told me to add a debit card or bank account that had not been associated with a XXXX account to with drawl my remaining balance. As mentioned earlier, I attempted to add such methods of which 2 debit cards should not have been ever associated with closed account. Now no one will respond to me and I still have not received my money. It's not much, {$53.00}, but I desperately need it to pay rent, phone or food. I will possibly be out on the street because of this and am just asking for what is rightfully mine.

I've been dealing with incompetent representatives since XX/XX/XXXX and unlawfully closed my case without resolution and consent. There have been over 19 email exchanges, XXXX interactions pinpointing their flawed accounting data. They have refused to respond to my additional correspondences. In addition, I want to file a complaint for accounting fraud, in violation of consumer rules, laws and regulations. I've made it clear to them I would be filing a complaint if they do not respond and gave them a final notice. They have blatantly disregarded my concerns and unlawfully hoarding my funds. The account started with {$8.00} and I added {$75.00} on XX/XX/XXXX totaling to {$83.00} balance. I attempted to make a {$75.00} purchase but was declined. Each time it was declined, my funds became unavailable. So, I added another {$75.00} but was declined again and my cash was taken out. Because I was utilizing a 10 % rebate promotion, the system credited {$7.00} which is why I have a current balance of {$91.00}. They released the {$75.00} hold which they corrected voluntary. But based on all the declined purchases, I should have a balance of {$160.00} which the representatives have disregarded. They also confirmed they were having technical issues. They keep saying they refunded both {$75.00} but they haven't. I believe they misread the numerical data and mistook {$75.00} for {$7.00} in their spreadsheet ( also attached ). I am requiring the {$75.00} returned that is rightfully mine and compensation for the issues they have caused including their unprofessional ism and unethical practices.

This complaint is in tandem with an open complaint I currently have withXX/XX/XXXXXXXX XXXX through the CPFB. My phone was stolen on XX/XX/XXXX of 2020. The perpetrator used my phone to transfer XXXXUSD from my checking account held at XX/XX/XXXXXXXX into my CashApp account. They then used my CashApp account to transfer said funds into another unkown CashApp account. The transfers occured at XXXX. The CashApp company then sent an email to me stating they needed identify verification at XXXX, same date. I have attempted the proper channels to resolve this matter with XX/XX/XXXX fraud department with supporting evidence and witnesses, but have been denied more than 5 times. Supporting evidence includes a XXXX Police Report. I attempted to contact CashApp regarding the situation, and at most all I received was an e-mail stating they had elected to close my account. Within that e-mail, they stated they would provide no further information. Please help! This has lowered my quality of living and caused stress and pain and suffering. XX/XX/XXXXattempts to verify my identiy came only in the form of a simple text message with simple requirements of replying 'YES ' or 'NO '. This has been their statement to me multiple times. Needless to say, the perpetrator had an easy time verifying with the bank by simply replying 'YES '. CashApp attempted their identiy verificiation some XXXX hours ( too little too late ) after having already made such large transfers. PLEASE HELP! I have all necessary supporting evidence and witnesses needed! Please contact me directly for supporting evidence!

This is in re : Cash App My email : XXXX Date : XX/XX/2020 Cash App name is : $ XXXX This happened to me XXXX XXXX and money was sent to me by another person who is my client who uses me for XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. She normally sends {$80.00} to me every week for over 9 months todate. Her name is XXXX XXXX whom sent me money that I never received. XXXX sent {$80.00} twice to my assigned name and I never received neither to my account with Cash App. It seems to me Cash App needs to have someone answer their phones but does not have a person to do this. For whatever the reason I dont know why this is not a part of being in business, but this is a very detailed part of being a trusted and trustworthy company to be found and to get a real person on the phone to help you with any amount of money that may be in question. Cant see how they got licensed without the protocols of handling customers money with a live person to answer phones. We live in a sad world today with many loopholes and modern technology but folks still dont use their brains on common sense areas. If someone can please get back with me in this respect in getting my money back. And if you may need to contact me in anyway possible, please dont hesitate to call me at XXXX. I would appreciate to see things worked out and if possible changes could be implemented in a seemingly good business that started out good but somewhere down the line someone possibly had a better idea of stealing from the company for themselves from their clients. Thanking you very much in these regards. XXXX XXXX XXXX, customer to Cash App.

I buy and sell items on an app called XXXX XXXX. I had a customer offer to buy a hockey helmet that I had for sale and he wanted to use Cash app to pay me. I do have an account on cash app but only a personal account. Since the amount of the helmet was XXXX I was told I needed to upgrade to a business account. The cost to upgrade to a business account is XXXX. The customer was going to send XXXX ( XXXX helmet and XXXX upgrade ), with the understanding that I would send him the XXXX back after the transaction with the helmet was complete. I was told to buy XXXX cards in the amount of XXXX ( XXXX a piece ) to send through Cash app to reimburse him the cost of the business upgrade. I couldn't find XXXX cards so I purchased two XXXX visa money cards. I send the money through from the Visa Cards and then was informed that it had to be XXXX cards. So that was my 1st XXXX loss. I found the XXXX cards and sent those. They said that the money was already taken off of one of the cards, but not the other. So now I have sent XXXX and I had to go get another XXXX card to replace the one that they said was no good. I had the understanding that any money or card I sent them would be reimbursed to me. By this time I am down XXXX on a transaction that was supposed to give me XXXX. The last conversation I had with them today, XX/XX/XXXX I was told to send an additional XXXX XXXX card which I am not doing. It is a shame with the situation our country is in right now with Covid-19 that we are getting ripped off. The reason I sell items is to put food on the table for kids, wife, and myself.

On Monday XX/XX/XXXX, I was at a friends house XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and received a notification from Cash App that I had a negative balance when oddly I deposit {$10.00} on XX/XX/XXXX. It puzzled me and I googled Cash App Customer Service. I called XXXX and spoke with someone that pretended to be Cash App Support Services. They politely explained to me what had happened, reassured me that they could handle the negative balance as well reverse the funds back into my account. He put me on hold and had requested that I downloaded an app Team Viewer Quick Support, as I was asking him questions, I asked to speak to a manager. XXXX from XXXX called me and reassured me that they would handle this situation. They told me they had to enter XXXX in the pay out as a code and It was minutes that moment I thought to myself I just got hacked. I checked my XXXX XXXX account and {$2300.00} was taken out my account. By this time I had been on the phone for 1-hour talking and yelling at them to fix this problem or Im call the bank. XXXX told please do not call the bank we can fix this problem. XXXX stood in her living room and said that this doesnt make any sense. They tried to involve her by requesting to transfer my {$2300.00} to her Cash App account. I called the bank on the line while they talked to XXXX. And the bank told me that someone tried to take three different withdraws, which the last one was in the amount of {$2300.00}. The bank opened up an investigation. I am filing this Police report with XXXX Police department to report someone pretended to be Cash App Support.

****CASH APP IS A SERVICE DEVELOPED BY SQUARE INC.******** On XX/XX/XXXX, I submitted a payment as $ XXXX to XXXX XXXX under his CashApp name $ XX/XX/XXXX. A total of {$1500.00} was sent to $ XXXX for a mortgage payment. Within one hour, at XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX ( $ XXXX ) refunded the amount of {$1500.00} back to me ( $ XXXX ). A CashApp receipt was generated for the refund. The original transaction sent to XXXX XXXX shows as refunded with an 'Identifier ' of # XXXX. I am assuming this is CashApp 's version of a confirmation number. The original recipient of the funds sent an email to CashApp on XX/XX/XXXX when I informed him that the funds were not back in my CashApp profile or my bank account. I have emailed CashApp several times regarding this issue and I am still being told that the funds will be sent back to my debit card within 2-3 days. I received an email reply on XX/XX/XXXX indicating that I need to speak with my bank regarding this issue. I do not believe that this is a bank issue because the funds were completely removed from my account via CashApp. I talked with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX to discuss the issue of the refund. I was informed by the teller that this is a CashApp issue and funds have to be placed back onto the card from which it came from. When this happens ... XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX will show a pending deposit coming into my account. To this date..CashApp has taken no steps to send the {$1500.00} back to my account. Whenever I send an email to check on the status, I am getting replies from a different person each time with same response.

On XX/XX/2021 I received a Cash App debit Visa card in the mail at my address that I did not request. The card and related account were fraudulently opened using my identification. I contacted Cash App by phone. They sent an email with a link to share card details. And I responded with the details. I also contacted them by mail asking for the card to be cancelled and related accounts closed. I specifically asked to be notified in writing, preferably by paper mail, once the above actions had been completed. I never received any written confirmation. I further requested what additional information they could provide on the identity or location of the person ( s ) responsible for the fraud so that I could include this in the report I filed with my local PD. I never received any additional information. I reported this fraud incident on the FTC 's IdentityTheft.gov site. To the best of my knowledge, no action was taken by the FTC based on my report. Because the card I received was opened by XXXXXXXX XXXX, I also reported the fraud incident to the FDIC. Banks are required by law under the Bank Secrecy Act and USA Patriot Act to have a customer identification policy which ensures that they verify the identity of prospective customers before opening accounts. That clearly had not been done in my case. The FDIC replied and said I should make my complaint against Square Inc. ( owner of Cash App ) with the CFPB. To the best of my knowledge, no action was taken by the FDIC against either XXXXXXXX XXXX or Square Inc. for apparent non-compliance with the XXXX and XXXX.

On XX/XX/2019 CashApp withdrew {$1300.00} from my checking account indicating that it was a REFUND ( the date of the original transaction was back in XX/XX/2019, not sure why they took a refund 2 months later ). The funds were released from my account by my bank on XX/XX/2019. This refund was not authorized nor requested. There is no telephone number for CashApp so I sent an email on XX/XX/XXXX to XXXXXXXX requesting the funds be returned. I received a communication from XXXX XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX requesting further information for them to investigate ( to which I provided the information ). On XX/XX/XXXX I sent another request for investigation ( to which no response was received ). On XX/XX/XXXX I left a message on the App Store advising of the problem. I received a communication from XXXX ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ) advising they passed the case along to a " member of our Disputes team ''. On XX/XX/XXXX my mother sent email to XXXX XXXX XXXX requesting return of funds. A reply was received from XXXX XXXX in essence requesting the same information. I sent the information again. Please note that, to date, XXXX XXXX has NOT received the {$1300.00} withdrawn from my account and CashApp has not responded to my inquiries for investigation ( only been given runaround ). This has caused me undue financial hardship and I am unable to pay my bills. The below information is the information that I have repeatedly provided CashApp. Cashtag : $ XXXX Phone Number : XXXX Senders Phone No. : XXXX Email Address : XXXX Recipients Phone No. : XXXX Identifier of the transaction : # XXXX

I have been having issues with Cash app since XXXX. It started with me sending {$280.00} to a wrong account belonging to my daughter. That issue lasted a month. My daughter finally was able to send it back to my account in XXXX. Cash app only gave her {$270.00} and that is the amount she sent back to me. I received a replacement card for my account on XX/XX/2020. I attempted to use the card on XXXX XXXX. The card was declined. Several more times after that, I attempted to use the card. It continued to be declined. Then I reviewed the card against the information on the app. The card showed a different CVV number and a different expiration number on the card than what was on my account. I discovered that this is the reason why my card kept getting declined. So, I immediately reported the card lost and the app locked the card and sent out another one. I have just received my new card. I reviewed the card itself with the new information that is on my app for the new card.. The same issue is true with the new card that I just received today. The account number is correct ; but the CVV number and the expiration number is different than what is on the card. The card will be declined when I attempt to use the card. Cash app is deliberately sending my cards that I can not use to access my funds. Then if I use it and it declines, then they will lock my account in order for them to investigate. Cash app is getting a little of my money at a time and constantly locking my account. My money is not available to me at this time. My account is locked because cash app locked it.

I opened a cash app account via online app. Every time I log on I get an error notice on the page and Im unable to do anything further on the app. Some times I can see my balance and when I do it has been different amounts ranging from $ 5- {$11.00}. In the month of XX/XX/2020 I received two small deposits from my niece. One was for {$11.00} and the other was for {$7.00}. I never received a notification that she sent them as I have experienced with my last deposit made into my account from my daughter on XX/XX/2020 for {$100.00}. I received a text notification for my daughters deposit. My account however, has not reflected the added {$100.00} deposit. I tried to contact Cash App through the app but as I stated before I could never navigate the app due to the error screen that always popped up so I found Consumer Finance to submit a complaint since there is no other means of interaction for Cash App. I also submitted a complaint with another online website who I believe was a scam so I didnt further initiate contact with them because I was uncomfortable with the questions being asked. I have a card for the Cash App account that I have had constant log in issues with as well but have never used it. I have since made a new Cash App account and I wish to close the other account and receive all funds attached to the old account. I would like to be reimbursed by paper check in the amount of {$110.00}. That is the balance I am supposed to have in the account. Once that account has been close and deleted I would like documented proof to have for my records of this.

On XX/XX/XXXX, I had a series of transactions attempted on my account. Two ( 2 ) were approved to XXXX for the amounts of {$32.00} and {$49.00}. I researched the merchant and its affiliates and confirmed that I had never done business with the merchant. I contacted CashApp ( Square Inc/XXXX XXXX XXXX to report the transactions on the CashApp Visa. I was told that I couldn't dispute the transactions until the transactions hard posted to the account. The card was shut down and replaced. On XX/XX/XXXX, both transactions posted and I contacted CashApp and disputed the transactions. On XX/XX/XXXX, I received a response that the transaction would be disputed and the merchant the network allows 45 days to review and resolve the claim. No mention of a provisional credit as required by Regulation E ( EFTA ). The very next weekend on XX/XX/XXXX, two more transactions posted to my account with the new CashApp Visa card that had not yet been activated. The transactions were to XXXX in the amounts of {$220.00} and {$26.00}. On XX/XX/XXXX, I reported these transactions and asked when a provisional credit would be issued. I was told by the agent that the transaction would be disputed but no further discussion could be done regarding the process. I then responded to the dispute analyst that was handling the first two transactions, he said they had 45 days. I shared with him my extensive knowledge of financial services regulations because of my job and 20 years in the industry. I advised I am supposed to receive a provisional credit. I have yet to receive a response.

On or around XX/XX/XXXX I received an envelope from Cash App with a debit card in it. It was addressed to me at my home. I do not have a Cash App account so I believe someone opened an account in my name for fraudulent purposes. Over the next couple days I attempted to contact them via phone, only to find that it is literally impossible to reach anyone this way. Their website says to use their app to reach support, but I can not use their app without creating a Cash App profile. I am not creating a profile just to report that my identity has been stolen. The following weekend we received another Cash App debit card at our address ( this time without a real name ), which means at least two fraudulent accounts are linked to us. On or around XX/XX/XXXX I used the Square " contact us '' form to ask for help since Square is the parent company of Cash App. Square simply told me to use the Cash App phone app for support, even after I explained why I can't. Then they stopped responding to me. I saw that on their app review page, Cash App steers people to XXXX or XXXX for support. On XX/XX/XXXX I sent a XXXX DM to @ CashSupport asking for their help. I sent another later that morning, and another on the XXXX, XXXX and XXXX ( today ). They have not responded. It is EXTREMELY frustrating and stressful that I can not reach anyone there to report fraud. Whatever illicit activities these accounts are used for, Cash App has been willing to let that continue unabated. Meanwhile I am the one who will get blamed in the end, since the fraudsters used my identity.

My Cash App account was hacked. Noticed that there was XXXX w/d from my Cash App that was linked to my debit card and ultimately my checking account. I reported the fraud to XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX immediately and I reported the fraud to Cash App right away -- same day. Both parties initiated a " dispute '' but months after, I get notification from both parties that they have denied my claim. We have no idea who the money went to, did not participate in the transaction, did not allow anyone access or use of the Cash App account and we did not benefit from the transaction. I tried to start the dispute process over with Cash App and the case is still not closed. I can not reach anyone for assist other that slow email back and forth. There is no customer service for Cash App other than email which makes it very difficult and slow to resolve a claim. This has been going on for months. XXXX XXXX XXXX reversed provisional credit on XX/XX/2021 and then closed the case again on XX/XX/2021 ; they state I should work with Cash App. Cash App would not assist me but now say they are working with our bank. This dispute began back on XX/XX/2021. I reported the fraud the very day the transactions were trying to come through. XXXX was stolen from me via Cash App in the amounts of ; XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX. I need help with this dispute. I need Cash App to reimburse me the fraudulent transactions and I would like to close my account out afterwards and the customer service and fraud prevention is terrible. My email is XXXX and phone number is XXXX.

I called Cash app, on XX/XX/2019, to discussed the dispute. I explained, my error, I tapped the wrong person name and the money was send. I called my bank, the money was credited back to my account, until they could investigated the matter. On XX/XX/2019, I received notification, the money had been withdrawn and returned back to the same person. XX/XX/2019, Cash App 's has several phone numbers listed, on the internet. I called Cash App spoke with a male named XXXX XXXX, a representative of Cash app. Mr. XXXX stated, he could see my account and repeated the last 4 digits of the account number. He commented, " I can see you have never filed a claim with our company, before and I will refund your money '' In fact, I will deposited {$250.00} for this inconvenient. He said, " I need your bank card number '' I explained, the bank card has been closed '' Mr. XXXX next question, " How far are you from XXXX? I said, about 30 minutes. Mr. XXXX instructed me to go to XXXX and purchase a gift card for {$250.00}. Once, I have purchased the card, call him back with the numbers from the back of the card, so that he could deposited the money onto the gift card and I then could placed the money back into my account. I then realized it was a scam. The person, who I send the money never contacted the bank stating, they was owed any money. Cash App took advantage of the error and kept the money. After I learned is was scam, I call the XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX.XXXX.XXXX. ), to report the incident and learned Cash App does not have a phone number.

I've been trying to get in touch with ANYONE from Cash App ( Square ) regarding them closing my account without any noticed with {$2100.00} in it and have been giving me the run around for WEEKS. This whole thing started XX/XX/19 It is now after the XXXX and my rent money is stuck in this cash app account! I have attempted to contact them over 20 times all together via the app support, email, and twitter support page over the last few weeks & have been given a generic response or someone from XXXX saying they will handle is as soon as possible and then never responding again. I gave all the information they requested and now they are completely ghosting me. I reached out to their support on XXXX, explained everything and the response was " We're sorry that you're experiencing confusing regarding the decision to deactivate your account. Once your Cash App account has been deactivated, we aren't able to reinstate it. Any future attempts to create an account may result in deactivation as well. We know this can be quite frustrating! Unfortunately we can't share account specific information on XXXX. To gain some clarification, please review our TOS : squareup.comXXXX '' I responded back letting them know I was not attempting to open the account back up but I AT LEAST need to get my {$2100.00} out of my account! Radio silence ever since! I don't know what to do anymore. I am not going to be able to pay my rent this month without my money and I have no other way or getting in touch with anyone!

I have been in contact with CashApp support over the past few weeks on 2 merchant refunds that were issued by XXXX to an account I had closed back in XX/XX/2020. XXXX XXXX is the issuer of the prepaid debit card in which CashApp calls CashCard. XXXX refunded {$55.00} and {$320.00} to the debit card in XXXX and XX/XX/2020 respectively. I was told initially by CashApp that since my account was closed, the refunds would be returned to XXXX. I contacted XXXX last week and was told that the refunds were never returned to them and in most cases the bank will issue a check to my address if the account is closed. CashApp refuses to help me and instead insisted that I verify my identity by providing my $ XXXX from the account that I closed along with other information such as phone number, email address and mailing address associated with the account in which I was able to provide. They have also refused to tell me their policies for merchant refunds to a closed account. It would appear my money is inaccessible and CashApp is giving me the runaround. I have notify them that I will be filing a complaint if several solutions in which I have offered is not executed. I can't believe the obstacles I have to jump to verify my identity on a closed account. From a legal perspective, $ XXXX is not a verification criteria. I have provided my full name, mailing address, email address, and phone number along with the last 4 digits of the prepaid card. I would be happy to provide my social security information if needed to get this resolved.

I invested money and bought stocks as well as bitcoin through XXXX, on XX/XX/XXXX I woke up to several emails saying my stocks had been sold and the money had been deposited into an account I did not recognize. When I tried to open the app my password and pin had been changed and I no longer had access to it. It took over two hours on hold before getting someone on the phone. I was then told the cashapp " investigating team '' would send an email to follow up. After waiting 3 weeks I called back and waited another 3 hours to speak to someone. When I did finally receive an email from them it took another 2 weeks of them " investigating '' before they proposed a solution. I was told they would credit the money back to my account - an account they were told repeatedly had been hacked. They asked I make a new account and send the username to them so they money can be credited back to me. I have now been waiting since XX/XX/XXXX for this credit. I have emailed the " support '' team about 5 times now and have not gotten any response from anyone. I have tried calling them numerous times and the automated voicemail either hangs up itself or tells you no one is available to take your call then hangs up. I tried contacting them to get the matter resolved through their chat option but apparently the " advocate '' is now crying in a corner because I called him useless- his solution was to email their " support '' team... given I have already emailed them 5 times and have gotten no response I think my description was pretty accurate.

To whom it may concern, on XX/XX/21, I attempted to sends funds to my brother XXXX XXXX using the CashApp. I attempted to send 3 payments of {$500.00}, {$500.00}, and {$8.00} totaling {$1000.00}. However, my recipient, my brother never received the funds. I made several attempts to contact CashApp Support to recover these funds and received several emails as well as having several phone contacts with CashSupport personnel. All efforts to have my funds refunded have failed. Therefore, I filed a dispute claim with my financial institution, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX fraud department on XX/XX/21. My dispute case was denied on XXXX as this was considered a person-to-person transaction. I have attached the dispute denial letter I received today from my financial institution. I have repeated contacted CashSupport to rectify this matter and have followed all directions requested of me by the XXXX personnel. My most recent contact was today, XX/XX/21 and was told that their records show that the recipient had received payments despite having discussed this matter with my brother as recent as XX/XX/21. My brother vehemently denied that he had received payments from CaspApp. The CashSupport personnel agreed with my brother and stated that the payments may have been sent to XXXX, which I thought was ridiculous. The following are the many emails I received from Cash Support along with my response to those emails. I have also included a snapshot of the CashApp on my phone. Your assistance with this matter is appreciated. Mahalo XXXX XXXX

On XX/XX/2020 I sent a payment on cashapp too my husband but sent to his old account which cashapp themselves closed out months ago. It has no cashapp $ hashtag name at all, phone number, or email so how the payment was even sent is beyond me It was sent to XXXX. The payment was suppose to go to $ which cashapp stated during emails back and forth that the account was tied together with the other. Once payment was sent I realized that there was no recipient just XXXX and immediately contacted support and requested refund. XXXX also contacted cashapp and they stated that the transaction was cancelled and money would be sent back. On XX/XX/2020 I contacted Regions bank and informed them and asked to dispute charge. On XX/XX/2020 I disputed charge with my bank again as I had not heard anything back on the previous day of reporting. XX/XX/2020 I contacted my bank again to see what was going on. They stated Cashapp refused to return $ and the {$300.00} is valid. XXXX and I both have been nonstop emailing cashapp back and forth as they dont have a # to call they have completely stopped responding to me and they sent XXXX another email stating that refund was issued on XX/XX/2020-XX/XX/2020 that it would be returned to the sender and it has not and them stating that along with disputing my transaction with bank states they are trying to keep my {$300.00}. They have sent XXXX and I both emails saying it has been over 3 days since they have heard from either of us and closing out the case. We have emailed daily. Please help

On Thursday, XX/XX/2020 Square , Inc stated that I have a negative balance on my account, but shows being positive. On XX/XX/2020 a purchase was made and cancelled within minutes ... needing a refund. The funds were never deposited within my account, they intercepted the transaction before it could be posted to my available balance. Square stated it was unable to process the refund because they took the money to satisfy the negative balance. Square never sent me a letter, email, called or posted to my account being negative or what are my options to take of the negative balance. I have taken screenshots showing where my account does not have a negative balance. I spoke to 5 different representatives yesterday with no resolution as to having that refund processed. I even offered if they refund the {$1300.00} I would set up a payment plan by paying {$300.00} of the {$1000.00}, I was told to call back the next day. I have been trying to call them but their system now states that " Customer Service is unavailable. I was also told by another agent that even if I make payment arrangements they will take whatever additional money comes through to satisfy the debt. What is the purpose of setting up a payment plan if they are still going to take money as it comes in? On XX/XX/2020 I received an end of year statement from Square and it did not report any losses only profits. I have also filed complaints with the Following : XXXX case # ID XXXX Texas Attorney General Complaint No : XXXX Federal Trade Commission case # XXXX

Some how he sent it to a name on cash app that looks like it is one of my accounts but does not link to my email. I don't even know how to access this account.

Have you researched that this account? I emailed them countless times but kept getting back general responses that had nothing to do with my specific problem. This started on Sat When XXXX sent the money to the " XXXX XXXX XXXX $ XX/XX/XXXX '', the one that I can't access and don't remember creating. I feel that they are stonewalling me so that they can make money off keeping it in their system for days while they gas light me by telling me that they are looking into it. It should be illegal to do financial services with out having a phone service to deal with the complications that can arise when dealing with large sums of money. No one at this horrible company has told me where the money is. They should go out of business.

The leader of this group deposited {$200.00} on this App. A representative from Cash App contacted me a few days after the aforementioned deposit was made and informed me the App I downloaded had been hacked and that the hackers could have access to all my personal information including my bank accounts and convinced me I needed to withdraw all my funds from my bank accounts and transfer these funds to Cash App so they could protect my funds and ensured me I would get all my funds returned to me as soon as possible.

I am a victim of identity theft since early XXXX as I have received a number of bank accounts opened in my name with only some of my information matching but phone number and e-mail addresses not matching. Square/Cash App is one of these accounts that were fraudulently opened using much but not all of my personal information. Since it is an online only account the only way you can talk to anyone or do anything is through the Cash App mobile application. I did not open this account so the validation processes of phone number or e-mail address do not match the account so I can't access it or register with the application to talk to someone. There is no phone number on the debit card I received and I can not find one online either. Since I can't register with the app and have no phone number to call, I called Square who owns the Cash App bank. Talking to people on the phone is a waste of time as they redirected me back to the Cash App to resolve my issue, which of course is not possible because I am a victim of fraud. I then attempted to use the chat feature with Square and again was directed to the Cash App application for assistance. I was able to get someone from Square to e-mail me but after going around and around they referred me back to the Cash App application. I can not get any help or talk to anyone within Square or the Cash App to help me close this fraudulent account. All I want is to be able to close my account and not open any additional accounts with this shady company ( Square/Cash App ).

On XX/XX/2021 at XXXX pm an unauthorized transaction of {$1200.00} was made through my CashApp account, leaving my account {$0.00}. This was my entire VA Disability Benefits check. I immediately reported this to CashApp through their chatbot customer service in the app. I received a response from CashApp customer service on XX/XX/2021 but wasn't aware of the email until XX/XX/2021 because I was still communicating through the chatbot and was informed that an email had been sent to me. After checking my email, I realized that the questions were the same that I had already answered in the chatbot but I answered them again anyway. From that day XX/XX/2021 up until XX/XX/2021 I've received the very same email from CashApp with the same questions just from a different representative. I have been given the run around and CashApp hasn't taken any action what so ever to investigate my case or recover my money. I feel completely disrespected and ripped off by this financial institution and totally ignored as a consumer that trusted them with handling my money. They should definitely be held accountable for consumers money and replace those funds after looking into the unauthorized transaction. They didn't even look into it. This transaction could have been reversed or stopped. They are very aware of where they sent the funds to. This shouldn't have ever gotten this far. I have been evicted from my apartment and now am facing homelessness. I am a single XXXX veteran with no family or friends that I can depend on.

First off, I have the XXXX transaction history file. I will attach the file below. Also, when I contacted my Financial Institution because I was scammed and a victim of wire transfer, Cash App closed the account and black listed all my accounts. I can't open a new account using my financial institution. On XX/XX/2020 a payment in the amount {$100.00} was sent to XXXX. OnXX/XX/2020a payment in the amount of {$200.00} was sent to XXXX XXXX. On XX/XX/2020 a payment in the amount {$500.00} was sent to ( XXXX Address ) to XXXX. On XXXX XXXX 2020 a payment in the amount {$500.00} was sent to ( XXXX Address ) to XXXX. I have copies of all the e-mails from Cash App. Most of the consist of " canned '' answers. I've never e-mailed the same person. I always receive a different person. When I asked that my complaint be forwarded to the Fraud Department, Cash App indicated they did that. Still nothing happened. They didn't even investigate the fraud. On XX/XX/2020a payment in the amount {$600.00} was sent to ( XXXX Address ) to XXXX. My financial institution was able to claw back XXXX of the {$500.00} transactions. Cash App blocked all the rest. Cash App will not provide the contact information, Name, Address, telephone number, e-mail or anything. Cash App says to contact the merchant through Cash App. Tried that and nothing happened. There was nothing received on my part. I'm betting all the above merchants are the same individual and that individual isn't even in the same location as my self.

Hello, On XX/XX/2020 at XXXX XXXX XXXX approx ) my card was charged for {$1.00} a few times, then {$2.00} a few times, then {$5.00}, then {$10.00} until the card is emptied. Then they start hit the {$10.00} ISF then go back down to {$5.00}, then {$2.00}, then {$1.00} until everything is gone. {$100.00} total. I immediately called Cash app and they only reply with automated messages. I have emailed and was told I would have to prove 'XXXX XXXX XXXX CA ' is not a legitimate charge for some reason instead of Cash app doing any work. I contacted XXXX and XXXX play and have multiple emails that state nothing on my account and no money pending and zero activity at all. I have all the emails from XXXX saved. I have been calling Cash app to explain over and over with no solution and as of XX/XX/XXXX there has been no contact with them or them trying to contact me. Before XX/XX/XXXX they did email me back but gave an email that gave no help or solution. They also said to call in but the app and their site and nothing on XXXX to contact them. They claim you can file a claim to get started but nobody will contact me back and there is not a phone number that can be called. Please help me and let me know what the next step is. XXXX has been good and I have emails stating it is NOT them from XXXX. After I stated that to Cash App they stopped communication completely. I can supply all account numbers, dates, emails and whatever you need just let me know. Thank you for your time. XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX

On XX/XX/21 I had approx 200 transactions of small amounts back to back which amounted to almost {$1800.00}. Since I was at work I did not see the notifications until my account had been cleaned out. I immediately canceled my card and contacted customer care. First of all, customer service for the company Cash app is only online. You can not actually speak to anyone. When you do speak to the reps they have cut and paste responses and give little to no help. Once I was finally able to get through to someone I was assured my claim was escalated and it would take 10 business days for them to accept the claim and then up to 45 calendar days to receive a resolution. Through out the course of this time they do not reach out or provide any type of communication and each time I reached out I received the same generic response that they do not have an update and I will receive an email once they did. We are now past those quoted dates and I still have not been given any type of response. Im beyond frustrated with the lack of communication and care this financial institution has for its customers. The fraudulent transactions were obviously fraud, and when you look at their website they claim to have security measures in place. This company needs to work on their customer service, they need physical phone lines available for those who have experienced fraud and they need security measures in place that wont let 200 fraudulent, suspicious charges take place on your account in less then an hours time.

My phone was taken and a person transferred {$7400.00} to their cashapp account. I tried to stop the payment, i requested a refund, and cash app did nothing. I made a police report about it. Cash App had no interest in the police report ( XXXX XXXX County MI Sheriff ). Now they are refusing to credit my account. They contradict their own policy by allowing such a large transaction evidenced below. 20. Transaction Limits. This Section describes the maximum amount that you can spend, transfer or withdraw using your Card during the time periods described in this Section. Per-Transaction Spending Limit. The maximum amount that can be spent using your Card is {$7000.00} per transaction. Daily Spending Limit. The maximum that can be spent using your card per day is {$7000.00}. Seven-Day Spending Limit. The maximum amount that can be spent using the Card in a seven-day period is {$10000.00}. Thirty-Day Spending Limit. The maximum amount that can be spent using the Card in a thirty ( 30 ) day period is {$25000.00}. Withdrawal Limits. The maximum amount that can be withdrawn at an ATM or a POS devic e is {$1000.00} per transaction, {$1000.00} per day, and {$1000.00} per week. https : //cash.app/legal/us/en-us/card-agreement By allowiing {$7400.00} transaction , they are violating their own policy. They could of froze the account that funds were fraudulently transferred to so they could at least investigate, they did not. These actions make them complicit in the wire fraud and larceny.

My account had a balance of {$650.00} after a transfer on XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX XXXX. Later the same afternoon I received a push notification on my cell phone about two unauthorized transactions : 1 ) XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, MA ) - initiated on Wednesday, XX/XX/2020 at XXXX XXXX - Amount : {$130.00} 2 ) XXXX XXXX ( XXXX, IA ) - initiated on Wednesday, XX/XX/2020 at XXXX XXXX - Amount {$130.00} Both transactions are listed as Cash Card transactions ( card ending in XXXX ). The cash card has been in my possession the entire time so I do not understand how it was used for transactions in two different U.S. states within minutes of one another. I do not know or recognize these vendors. I did not initiate these transactions. I have since disconnected the card associated with this account. There have been a number of declined attempts to use the card even after I disabled the physical cashcard that was connected to the account ( unauthorized attempts from XXXX in XXXX, NY XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX, WI XXXX. My cashcard has been compromised and my funds were stolen. I thankfully was able to cash out my remaining balance of {$370.00} and disable the card before the most recent attempts went through. I am asking to be refunded {$270.00} for both unauthorized and counterfeit transactions that I did not initiate and was not aware of. Cash App has not been helpful. I have provided all of the information I was asked for and have not received any confirmation that my funds will be refunded.

On XX/XX/XXXX and XXXX I sent payments totaling {$380.00} and was scammed. I never received the items or a tracking number and the merchant never responded to anymore texts when I kept inquiring. I attempted to contact Cash App support on numerous occasions but the only options they gave were to request a refund from the merchant. Which I did, they clearly scammed me and common sense they would not return the money. I disputed the transactions with my bank but XXXX XXXX/cash app refused to return the money to the bank. I have text messages and proof that the money was sent for goods that werent received or ever sent out. Cash app support is by email only and when they finally did respond they said they cant help with fraud even though the terms and policies on their website says otherwise. They never tried to investigate this fraud. Even though in order to open a cash app account social security numbers must be provided they are allowing thousands of customers to be scammed and providing no customer protections. This is the SECOND complaint from me. The first complaint was closed after this incompetent company responded to my complaint with another customers response letter. With her personal information and address and everything! Now shes compromised. Forcing me to have to open this second complaint because that incorrect response closed my initial complaint. ( I attached a picture of the letter they sent as a response to the first complaint with all of this womans information. )

I've done everything they've asked to try to retrieve this money During this process I've lost at least 3 other phone 's at one point they said they couldn't transfer money for security reasons. The e mails seem scripted. I asked was there no other way to prove my identity? I thought the phone to be stolen if the money was deposited and moved it was stolen and I need to know if it's not and I'm The only one e mailing trying to recover why not shut down account send money back to irs.

On Friday night XX/XX/24 I purchased tickets through a travel agent XXXX XXXX XXXX with my cashcard provided by CashApp. This was for XXXX tickets for her entire family as a treat but company flagged it and did not issue tickets. The amount was pre auth but funds did not post. Money is now out of my account and I cant not use. I contacted CashApp became the contacted they released it back and would talk to bank to have the authorization to have payments returned so I can use the funds to purchase elsewhere. This is where things go wrong. CashApp does not have a customer service number do you to contact them. This in itself is crazy in todays world. You have to email them in the app and wait 24 hours for response. A lot can happen in 24 hours. Needless to say they are misleading consumers, taking their money, read the complaints about them online. My merchant wants fo speak to them to Expedite the case but they wont give me a phone number for a even an email for the merchant to reach out to them. Does not seem like they want to help at all. You can only get help within the app but no response for 24 hours of longer. You can XXXX them and they refer you back to app. How does anyone get anything resolved if there is no customer service. Every other app has a customer service number you can use. This is truly unacceptable. Please help the consumers with this as this is not right. They are now allowing you to buy stocks and bitcoin but doesnt have a customer service number?

To Whom this May Concern and Can Take Corrective Action : I believe SquareUp.com ( Square Capital? ) may be making changes to their customers ' account with customer notification in order to generate additional fees or show growth in services under management. Approximately 60 days ago, Square changed my business account balance transfer policy from automated daily, to transfer manually as requested. This change generates added fees. My staff did not make this request, and when Square was contacted, they claimed not to have made the change. It was a computer mystery. Today ( XX/XX/20 ) I received the following unsolicited email from Square : Hello ________________ ( purposely blank ) We received your Square Card order. Your card should arrive at the shipping address you provided within 10 days. _____________________ ( purposely blank ) We will send a confirmation email when your card ships. Thanks, The Square Team I did not request a debit card from square, nor did my wife, who is the only other person with admin credentials on the account. When Square was notified about the error, they stated that only I could have requested a debit card. I asked for IP address from which the request was made. Square declined. Red Flag. I believe Square may be knowingly making changes to client accounts and initiating additional services in an effort show company growth, to the detriment of their clients. Please investigate further, and contact me directly for additional details.

I received an unsolicited Cash App debit card in the mail the week of XX/XX/2020. I was able to verify that an unauthorized account was opened with Visa on XX/XX/2020 and XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/2020. XXXX canceled the card and XXXX XXXX closed the associated account ; however I have been unsuccessful in closing the Cash App account which was fraudulently opened in my name using my mailing address. I contacted Cash App via XXXX first on XX/XX/2020 and received instructions to close the fraudulent account through the app by logging into the unauthorized account. Since I did not open the account myself ( as it was fraudulent and not opened by me ) I had no way of doing so. Since that initial email, I have had email correspondence with XXXX ( XX/XX/2020 XXXX XXXX ), XXXX ( XX/XX/2020 at XXXX XXXX ), XXXX ( XX/XX/2020 at XXXX XXXX ), XXXX ( XX/XX/2020 at XXXX XXXX ), XXXX ( XX/XX/2020 at XXXX XXXX ), XXXX ( XX/XX/2020 at XXXX XXXX ) who have each replied with various follow up questions. Some including requests for specific amounts and dates of fraudulent transactions are not answerable as I do not have access to the account. I have not had sustained correspondence with a single person at Cash App as a different person replies to each email I send. I have uploaded photographs of the physical card with the account numbers, expirations dates, and security codes. As Cash App does not have a live customer service line, I have not had any success in reaching a live representative.

CASHAPP On the XXXX of XXXX, 2020 at about XXXX I tried to check my Business Cashapp Account on my phone that I have been running and trading with for over 2 months, which does has countless successful transactions history suddenly disappeared with my {$4000.00} sitting in my balance. I tried to login again with my verified phone Number and Email and to my surprise it signed me up on a new account asking me to choose a new cashtag/username. I contacted Support via Email countless times and I was asked to answer some security questions which I did but to my surprise their response was that they couldnt trace/find my account that I should go ahead and send them the screenshot of my last transaction with the account in question which I still did but its still all looking like a futile effort which is so scary because I have been so restless and I dont think Id be ok anytime soon until I am able to have access into the account in question. The {$4000.00} that is sitting in that account belongs to my customers because it is a business account. I have tried all my possible best to talk to the Cashapp representative on the phone looking up their phone number or customer service toll free number but theres non. In no circumstances would I let go of my hard earned money to neither a Bank nor an Individual. I will be very grateful if your reputable company ( CFPB ) can help me retrieve my account to recover back my money as soon as possible. Thanking You in Anticipations ...

I signed up for a Cash App account because in an emergency I had to sell belongings to get food during this crisis. I get my cash app handle $ XXXX and setoff to sell my belongings. I exchange the goods and this stranger sends me money through cash app, i get a text from cash app notifying of the funds. Turns out this stranger wanted to buy both of my items for sale so he sent another XXXX and I ASSUMED since I had receieved 2 texts from Cash app stating the this person had sent me XXXX and another XXXX that I was good to go. However attempting to " pickup '' these funds proved to be impossible and cash app would insist on verifying my identify which I tried 2 ways to do and they STILL would not accept so they want a scan of your drivers license front and back, BUT there is no way to take or capture the image for the back so THERE IS NO WAY TO VERIFY YOUR IDENTITY and Cash APP has XXXX I mean absolutely NO SUPPORT WHATSOVER which is very very concerning. How does a financial company that sells stock not have any support, let alone a phone number to call. So, in my opinion this entire company is a complete scam and now they have my financial info, scans of my drivers license, everything needed to commit identity fraud. Not to mention I just lost {$120.00} and will not be able to eat today all because I trusted cash app. Please stop these people as they aided and abetted someone else stealing from me and they do not offer any support or way for me to resolve this issue.

On XX/XX/2020, I unknowingly sent money through cash app to a scam artist for goods that were not receive. After that I try to get in contact with said person, to get a refund for my money for the goods that were not received. I find that the person blocked me on social media so I would not be able to contact her. Shortly after I contacted cash app to see what could be done about the situation as far as a refund. They informed me that they will not be able to take responsibility for any transfers of money through cash app and that I should contact my bank. After that email transaction with cash app I contacted my bank to file a claim. They were able to assist me so far up until XX/XX/XXXX of 2020. I have contacted my bank today, XX/XX/2020 and they reversed the credit transaction from the claim money. They informed me that cash app will not take responsibility for the transaction and refund me my money. Cash app has done this multiple of times where I contact support and verbatim will say they do not have any more information for me. All I want is my money back from a scam artist praying on me. The original transaction happened in XXXX and I should not still be dealing with this in XXXX. Cash app Has closed my account due to the dispute and will not allow me to add my debit card information anymore. And when I asked as to why my account is closed they never give me any information. I no longer use cash app for anything and I would love to receive my {$85.00} back.

I would love for someone to contact me personally since I have recorded phone calls with this company lying to me on multiple occasions. They randomly decided they were going to review my account. Gave me 5 different excuses as to why. Told me my funds would not be given to me. Then said they would be. Back and forth all day. They STILL have not issued my money to me. I run my own business, this is how I pay bills. They knowingly and intentionally wouldnt not give me my funds and asked for documents. What documents can I possibly provide? A customer runs their card to pay for their services, the end. There literally is no other documents I can provide other than the receipt, which SQUARE SENT TO MY CUSTOMER. Im facing homelessness because of square. I needed to use MY HARD EARNED MONEY to pay my bills. If you look online, Im not the only one! Except instead of withholding 30 % -50 % theyre withholding ALL OF IT. I cant touch a DIME. Im going to have to refund it, Ive already started the process, because its taking square up to 4 months or more to give it back to others for the typically one business day review so Ive issued it back to the customer to keep my freaking utilities on, and be paid a different way and they still havent got it either! This company is taking advantage of small business during a pandemic close to the holidays and the end of a federal moratorium. It has to be stopped. This has to be illegal. On top of all the lies ... this cant be legal.

So cash app has a referral bonus going for inviting people and on atleast 6 or 7 invites ive completed the steps as required and was not awarded my bonus and neither was the people i invited. When contacting cash app customer service they just copy and paste the steps to get the bonus and say thats all the information they can give and end the chat. They in no way try to actually help or solve the problem. There was even an instance when one of the people i invited contacted their XXXX support and XXXX support told them that the payment was issued but could not be completed by cash app and that the payment would not be re issued. What!? So a cash app payment could not be completed by cash app and it will not be reissued meaning I should have gotten the payment but since your system didnt complete it im just not going to get my money? That is extremely messed up and fraud this company needs to be regulated more or shut down for their fraudulent actions and lack of customer support. They dont care about their customers or attempt to help them they just copy and paste boilerplate responses then send you on your way with absolutely no resolution to your problem. I just recently sent a invite to my younger cousin and he used my referral code he sent me the required {$5.00} and he added a new debit card and the referral wasnt given to us and when he contacted customer service they just copy and pasted the steps to get the referral which he did and ended the chat.

- CashApp is the name of the service. - They offer " Boosts '' which are basically deals on their account that take a percentage off a certain merchant. - The Boost/deal I applied to my account says in the terms ( see attachment ) that it can be used every day. - The deal mentions XXXX 's XXXX online purchases using the Cash App card get 10 % off up to {$20.00} off and the deal can be done for multiple days, every day. - I did this deal on Monday and it went through okay and cash app credited me back 10 % of my purchase. - On Tuesday, I went to do this deal again because it says it can be done every day. - Before I did the deal again on Tuesday, I messaged their chat support PRIOR to doing the deal to ask if " Every day '' is considered 1 time per calendar day -or- once every 24 hours. - The chat agent told me to " just read the terms '' and nothing else. So I read the terms and they said, " Every day. '' - I tried to use the deal for the 10 % off on XXXX. I spent {$200.00} and expected to get {$20.00} back ( 10 % off ), but I was denied that 10 % off, yet the transaction went through at full price. I messaged the CashApp customer service through their chat feature, but they told me they would not honor the 10 % off or credit my account. - If a doctor tells me to take a pill every day, I will take a pill every day. If a doctor tells me to take a pill every 12 hours, I will take it every 12 hours. So how does Cash App believe their terms are true?

XXXX XXXX owner who opened a new account with square after applying online. Subsequently, I was sent a Square card with a Mastercard logo. Once the card was received and activated I immediately started performing transactions using the card and sending my current customer 's invoices. However, once my customers paid those invoices via Square and the monies went into my account Square placed the funds on hold. I very upset and confused because subsequent communication from Square asked me to send 3 months of bank statements and asked specific questions regarding my marketing material. I just opened a business account with XXXX XXXX but provided my personal bank statements where my customers would XXXX me for my services and products. Lastly, after three days I was told that my customers would have to use alternative payment methods so I basically just provided products and services for free to my clients. I am beyond disappointed and upset. I had to contact some of my clients to ask if they could pay for the products/services again using a different payment method. It was unprofessional and unheard of. Why would my account be approved and the card sent out to go through another round of arbitrary verification rules after money is being sent to the XXXX XXXX? The legitimacy of my business should have been challenged at the application stage. I have been in business for over 10 years and have never experienced a situation like the one Square has presented!

On XX/XX/2020 a request from XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) was made I thought nothing of it because it was my cousin and she's really good at returning or sending money to. On XX/XX/XXXX I called XXXX XXXX and ask when was she going to return the money that I sent her like was stated in the request. She then told me that she never received any funds or sent a request now we are both totally puzzle to what's going on because if she did not get the money who did is the problem and who had access to her account where she had no clue about it. So she screenshot me her activity and I did the same and we were still totally shocked that this ever happen I also check my web receipt to come to find out that it was totally a scam from who I never met a day in my life or have phone conversations with how do they have the same cash app logo as XXXX as picture ( XXXX XXXX ) I'm not sure if the scam came from XXXX XXXX or someone outside of cash app but this is ridiculous that this even happened. I contact XXXX XXXX on several different occasions and each time it was told that it was my fault and I should verify before sending any funds my question repeatedly to cash app is how can I verify any farther if this is the person if I'm unable to actually see the actual who's the actual request from until there's a web transaction I need help and I need my money back there's already a crisis going on and I've been laid off and all money needs to stay inside my home if I can help it.

On XX/XX/XXXX, I was approached by an online seller to use the " Cash App '' by Square as they could use the funds immediately to ship my product. Working in the financial services industry, I loaded up the app and found I was able to pay with my debit card so I decided to do the transaction. I was not greeted by any terms of service, nor was I told that the funds would be non-reimbursable. XXXX, a similar competitor using bank accounts, strictly tells you every time that most transfers are not able to be returned. So I felt safe and proceeded as I figured this was just Square 's version of XXXX. I made the payment but I immediately started getting concerned as the online seller would not produce a shipping number. I still have not received the items. I contacted my bank ( XXXX XXXX ) and started a Reg E fraud claim on XX/XX/XXXX but they stated that I would have to contact Square as they viewed it as a transaction with Square and that the end user would be Square 's responsibility ( on XX/XX/XXXX ). I attempted to contact Square multiple times but their phone number only refers their merchants to use their number and without this number I can not get through. Square is acting as a merchant servicer and they are not providing protections for the users. Furthermore, there is no way to report a user for fraud. Square is not doing their part to protect users. The amount was for {$330.00} and the product I was purchasing was a used XXXX XXXX and some games.

Cash app is being used by the adult services community to lure vulnerable people into sending money for " adult cam shows ''. I was a victim of this scam. The scammers are on a site called chaturbate. They try to lure you offline for a cam show on XXXX. I foolishly agreed after telling the I was uneasy about doing this because there is no recourse once i send them money via cash app. She seemed trustworthy, even reassuring me that she would never rip me off because she knows how it feels. I figured well its only {$20.00} and she seemed like a decent person. Immediately after sending the money i was blocked from chaturbate and XXXX and had no way to contact the scammer. I immediately reported this to cashapp hoping that they would investigate. They were extremely unhelpful and said that once money is sent it can not be recovered. They gave the same company statement and said there is nothing they can do. Supposedly it was sent to a manager but the manager was just as unhelpful and said there is nothing further she could do so she was closing my case. I asked to speak to someone above her and she refused. I am really upset with the scammer but equally upset with cash app because they know they are enabling illegal activity through their app and dont seem to care so as long as they are making money. Not knowing where to turn I am here. At least I can make my complaint known. If there are enough complaing hopefully cashapp will be forced to take action.

On XX/XX/XXXX, I opened an account and made the following transactions : -XX/XX/XXXX : Purchased Bitcoin {$100.00} -XX/XX/XXXX : Sold Bitcoin {$89.00} ( {$2.00} ) transaction fee -XX/XX/XXXX : Purchased Bitcoin {$100.00} -XX/XX/XXXX : Purchased Bitcoin {$100.00} -XX/XX/XXXX : Purchased Bitcoin {$100.00} -XX/XX/XXXX : Purchased Bitcoin {$500.00} On XX/XX/XXXX, I submitted valid Military ID to Cashapp to be verified for Bitcoin transfers. On XX/XX/XXXX, I requested a status update as it was advertised as 10 days for verification. Their service team said they would forward the request and I provided email, cashapp handle, and a description of the issue. On XX/XX/XXXX, I resubmitted ID, this time a valid drivers license starting the verification process over again. On XX/XX/XXXX, I followed up and they said that their service team would send me an update. The update was literally an email that said they had closed my account and that I would have to liquidate my investment and transfer it back to my bank. They said I had violated the terms of service, which I reviewed again and I have not violated them. They then sent a vague email saying they couldn't tell me what violation occurred. I filed a complaint with the XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) and my XXXX XXXX chain of command regarding Cash apps business practices. I did a XXXX search and found that this is a common occurrence while forcing people to liquidate their investment and not provide a reason.

I had cash app for about a year. In XXXX I believe it was I purchased a new cell phone from XXXX store and data and apps were transferred over. When attempting to log back into my cash-app account it said my new device was not able to do so and to contact support. I did so through the app and email. I was told to create a new account in order to gain access to the old one. I did so and provided new account information to rep via email. After a string of copy and paste emails from different reps I got an answer of we cant grant access to the old account in order to protect your new account. I didn't need or want a new account to begin with. After 2 months of the same email requesting the same info to prove my identity and that the account indeed belongs to me I was simply told there is nothing they can do and there is no further information they can provide. I asked numerous times what they needed and it was still the same response. Nothing can be done. I have money invested in stocks through the app on the old account and I even still get emails updating me about earned dividends and investor voting. Yet they still won't provide access or further info as to where my money goes and how to retrieve documents needed for tax filings. I made a complaint to XXXX and Cash App responded read terms. Again nowhere does it state they can just keep my funds. I just want to be able to cash-out my stocks and be done with them all together. Please assist.

On XX/XX/2019, I was trying to transfer {$200.00} through the Cash app from my Credit Union bank account to my Cash app debit card. I mistakenly sent it to my Credit Union debit card, which I had reported lost. So then I transferred another {$200.00} to my Cash app debit card. I kept waiting for the initial transfer of {$200.00} to go back to my Credit Union account but it never did. I could see that the transaction was showing as completed in the Cash app but it never turned around. I have created at least four support inquiries and on three occasions was able to get documents showing what they have on file. But when discussing with through email only, the support personnel seem to ignore that the initial {$200.00} inquiry should go through my credit union. I had already done that since I could see on my statement {$190.00} was deposited to my credit union account ( {$200.00} minus {$3.00}. for immediate use transfer through Cash app ). What I have not seen is the initial {$200.00} which should have also shown on my Credit Union account since the Cash app support team member told me that it was transferred to my Credit Union debit card. They refuse to give me the {$200.00} that supposedly went to that debit card and never showed up in my Credit Union account since the debit card was lost. I have the Cash app attached to both my Credit Union account and Credit Union debit card for deposits, transfers and sending and receiving cash.

I've made a transaction on XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/20 for {$610.00} using cashapp. I've had issue with the order and reached out to XXXX XXXX for help. XXXX XXXX tried helping by attempting to provide an refund / exchange but was unsuccessful because their policy restricts them from providing refund or exchanges to Non returnable or All sales final order even if its a defect with the product or services. XXXX XXXX suggests that I reach out to my banking institution to get these charges disputed because they are limited of options in resolving this issue from their end. I've reached out to Cash app and explained what my issue is with this transaction. 24hrs later Cash app responded with an email saying that I should receive a dispute form with 10 business days. I've finally gotten the dispute form and filled out the necessary details. 2-3 days later after sending the form back to Cashapp, I've received an email from them stating that they can not dispute because they have no rights which is completely frustrating and false statement. I've banked with XXXX XXXX and had disputed with merchants about defective items or services and never had one issue with them! or heard about them not having rights to dispute this transaction because it was an all says item. The law states that I have a right to have a refund or exchange provided from any transaction even if the item was an All sales final or no returns if the ITEM OR SERVICE IS DEFECTIVE.

{$2200.00} was stolen from my account XX/XX/21 from a series of transactions from XXXX from XXXX and at least XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX. I woke up to a XXXX cash app account balance and immediately cancelled the card to avoid future charges. Someone duplicated my cash app card and used in New York on an XXXX. Im in Alabama and own an XXXX. The following day the card produced negative balances when the pending cleared as I was advised thats all I can do while they look only in the end to be told its too late .. the payment was captured. I have been patient and allowed Cash App to investigate, the case was closed due to no response when no further communication was needed from me 3 days later. I reopened it the same day and a week later only {$20.00} refunded XX/XX/21 and said they were working on the other transactions. When I followed up XX/XX/21 about the other transactions I was only told XXXX and XXXX had already captured the payment and basically there is nothing else that can be done, despite my account being hacked and money being stolen. Ive spoken with countless customer service representatives, dispute team, managers, and even email corporate executives to only have mail blocked. I need a full refund and potentially due to damages. I work hard for every cent I receive and have a family to provide for, this is beyond unfair for my money to be taken and be dismissed from everyone from the tail to the head of Cash App.

On XX/XX/XXXX someone hacked my cash app account and pulled {$150.00} from my XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX debit card. Immediately after, the hacker attempted 5 transactions that were canceled by cash app. The transactions were as follows : To XXXX for {$150.00}, XXXX XXXX for {$100.00} and {$50.00}, XXXX XXXX, and {$120.00} to XXXX were all canceled. I attempted to cash out the money back to my card and close the app before my money was taken but kept receiving an error, I could not get in touch with anyone from cash app and I went to my bank to file a dispute and get a new card which they gave me a hard time. The bank told me they couldn't treat it as fraud until they investigated. The person then cleared the {$150.00} from my cash app with the following transactions XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, XXXX and a cash out to XXXX XXXX bank in the amount of XXXX. I have never heard of XXXX XXXX cards and I do not have a XXXX XXXX XXXX account. You can also see from the screenshots where they tried to take more money even after all the money was gone. When I saw the bank denied my claim, I called the branch the reps told me they could not help me and hung up. I took the proof to the branch, they still told me they could not help me. I reached out to cash app via email and received a response stating they had no further information for me and to reach out to my bank. BEWARE of XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, I recently found out this happened to others.

On XX/XX/XXXX my bank account was hacked for {$350.00} through cashapp at XXXX.I contacted my bank card services immediately and was asked to sign a notice of fraudulent form and to go to my bank and receive a new debit card. My bank then informed me it could take ten business before I could get the money back. XX/XX/XXXX my bank refunded me the money. During this waiting period I am conversing with cashapp trying to get any answers concerning the hack and now Im getting the run around. Finally on XX/XX/XXXX I get an email from the cashapp team telling me they are going to give me a provisional refund. In order for that to happen, I would need to log back into the cashapp, put my information in and they would transfer it from my old account to my new one. I asked them to put the money on a cash card and mail it to me because I no longer feel comfortable putting my new information in the app. My next email from them was letting me know for security reasons they could not refund my money. I just received an email from my bank saying on XX/XX/XXXX they are taking back the refunded money because cashapp told them I authorized those transactions. That is NOT true! I do not know those people. I am still trying to figure out how they were able to take that money from me and my account was set up to use a PIN number to send money. I truly believe this is an inside job. Cashapp is scam and I want everybody to know it! XXXX

First I would like to thank you for your time. On XX/XX/19 @ XXXX XXXX I sent my friend some money through cash app. {$190.00} dollars to be exact. She couldn't access her old account due to getting a new number. She tried making a new name and getting it through a different cash app. Cash app has no number to where you can contact them. She emailed them, they emailed her back telling her how she could access the account, that still didn't work. I then emailed them and told them what happened. They didn't contact me until the next day. They gave us all these resolutions that would supposedly help us get the money back, but none of them worked. My sister was the one who sent the money, so I told her to dispute it with her bank. She then said her bank told her to go through cash app and see if she could get the money back. She also reached out to cash app and they told her I should contact them. In the mean time the then told me that it was sent back to my account. But I had made a new name as well. They said the money was sent back and to make sure my bank accounts were linked. my bank accounts have always been linked and so has my friends. To sum it all up, I haven't heard back from cash app and I have been emailing them since the day started. It is now XX/XX/19 and I have yet to hear from them or receive my money. please help me out anyway that you can because this is unacceptable. Thank you very much, XXXX XXXX.

On XX/XX/2019 a transaction for {$290.00} was posted to my Square account in which I'd subscribed to for my business. Only after the transaction took place was there a hold placed on my account or all transfers were suspended. This taking place after a previous transaction of a mere {$25.00} was released to me after being held for 2 weeks in order to have my bank account verified. Were they to have suspended the first payment or frozen my account at that point, I wouldn't have a complaint ; or had they made me aware that all further transactions would be suspended until they were able to validate the legitimacy of my business at that point. Unfortunately for me they lead me to believe that my account was set up to receive and transfer payments from that point on. I had in fact received another {$2.00} payment in the midst of my bank account being verified which was also released to me upon bank verification. Why would they have allowed two payments to go through and be transferred only to turn around and place a freeze on my account once a payment of almost {$300.00} hits the account? It's my belief that the Square company doesn't intend to release the funds to me but in fact plans to delete my account and seize the funds as I've heard rumors they are apt to do. Why not verify the legitimacy of the business BEFORE you allow them to perform transactions instead of waiting until AFTER there are funds in the account?

On XX/XX/XXXX an unknown user sent an amount of {$70.00} to my cash app account. I did not know this user and therefore sent the {$70.00} back, promptly, on the same day, as requested by the user who explained they accidentally sent it to me. I thought nothing more of it until XX/XX/XXXX when cashapp notified me they would be taking {$70.00} from my account to pay to the same user because there was a dispute opened with the users bank. There was never any inquiry into the matter. I was never given notice or a chance to explain the situation. I was simply notified on XX/XX/XXXX and the money was taken right then. I have since tried to get the funds back with no reasonable resolution being offered by cash app ( Square inc ). I believe their actions are in violation of the ETFA and they have yet to offer any reasonable resolution to this matter. I simply want my money back in my account. I never authorized this transaction to be made. My explanation can also be ( and has been ) verified/validated/confirmed by cash app by simply looking through the transaction history on my account which shows the accuracy of my explanation! I would like the {$70.00} returned to me promptly! I would also like square inc to review its policies that would allow such a situation to occur in the first place. Their policies appear to allow financial scams to be perpetrated on their users and also makes them complicit in these scams!

I posted a housing ad on XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. The same day, someone named " XXXX XXXX XXXX '' messaged me and told me that her friend was looking for a place and she gave me her email.. '' XXXX ''. I emailed her and she sent me a check via email, told me to print it out and deposit it. The check came from " XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX '' for {$2700.00}, which was more than I needed. She said her company paid for her rent, and she was on a contract. She asked me to send the money back to the mover, who would bring her luggage and car. After I sent her this, the next day, she told me that her grandma died and that her mom was in critical condition, so she needed to borrow {$1500.00} which she would pay back through her company. Another check was emailed to me from " XXXX XXXX '' with the same company name, for {$1500.00}. Both checks initially went through and the funds were visible in my account. I sent her {$1500.00} back per her request. Then, she told me that she needed all the money back. That's when I realized the checks were fake. After a few days, the bank rejected the checks and charged me a fee, even though I had explained the situation to them immediately. I contacted Cashapp and XXXX. Cashapp was impossible to get a hold of, and XXXX opened a case. I sent her {$500.00} on XXXX, and {$2200.00} on Cashapp, in seprate payments ( {$500.00}, {$750.00}, and {$1000.00} ). Please contact me for more information!

There exists a problem with fraud as it pertains to CashApp which supposedly is owned and/or operated by Square Inc . The bottom line is that, I have {$40.00} in my CashApp account which is effectively stolen by Square Inc., and in the possession of Square Inc., to which I have no access whatsoever. I have a CashApp debit card in my possession to which all of my in person transactions have been and continue to be denied without any explanation whatsoever. Even worse is that I have absolutely not way, whatsoever, to get in contact with CashApp regarding the inaccessibility to my funds. On XX/XX/2021 at or around XXXX XXXX. CT I tried to login to my CashApp account online via a full web browser and I received a message stating that the request could not be processed and to, instead, access support via the CashApp app on my cellular phone. The problem here however is that when attempting to access support via the CashApp app the app repeatedly crashes each and every time. Thus, I am not able to contact CashApp via their very own prescribed methods of contact. Furthermore, I am not able to contact CashApp via telephone either. Thus, I have no means, whatsoever, to contact CashApp and I have no access to my funds in my CashApp account. This is fraud by definition and is causing severe distress since this is the form of payment used for day to day transactions. See attached notice via CashApp ( Square Inc. ).

Some of my accounts were hacked so I closed my debit cards changed passwords usernames and so on. Well with cash app I changed my $ cash app name and pin. My friend sent me some money to my old account I tried to access my old account to transfer funds could not get access. I contacted cash app support through their email only way to contact them. The first email was sent on XX/XX/2021 I received the money on XX/XX/2021. So since XX/XX/2021 till this very day XX/XX/2021 I have been going back and forth trying to get help accessing my old account to transfer funds. Cash app has been sending me generic emails with links instructions on how to access my old account none of which work. The email I got from cash app on XX/XX/2021 states that they will do this one time courtesy and transfer my money into my new account. Oh happy days but the email I received on XX/XX/2021 says oh sorry no can do we can't transfer money for security reasons blah blah blah none of which makes any sense. I have all emails correspondence between cash app and myself. So I guess cash app is going to add my money to their payroll. It is theft and fraud plain and simple. The last email I received XX/XX/2021 from cash app says seeing how I haven't responded to them in 3 days the matter is closed. My last email I sent to cash app was on XX/XX/2021 so no 3 days has not passed without me contacting you so now cash app is out right lying.

I transferred {$1200.00} from my linked credit union checking account to the Cash App card I have, which I planned on using for rent. I did this on XX/XX/2020, after my XX/XX/2020 attempt to pay rent online was declined due to a clerical error ( incorrect bank routing number entered ). My intention was to use that card to withdraw cash to pay rent with a XXXX, as now required by my apartment complex. My credit union is XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ( where I used to live, in XXXX ) and my current home is the XXXX XXXX XXXX in XXXX XXXX. My legal name is XXXX XXXX, but I go by XXXX ( hence my username on Cash App, $ XXXX ). Since my associated debit card was canceled around the same time ( my credit union sent me a replacement recently ), I assumed thats why the money didnt get to my cash app card. The company told me I had to have a card associated with their Cash App card, but once I replaced the debit cards with the replacement, the money didnt go through. Cash App does not show receipt of the {$1200.00} transfer, but my credit union shows {$1200.00} leaving my account and going to them. I never received it despite even replacing the credit union debit card to back the Cash App card it requires. My rent is now almost a whole month late, and Im facing eviction. They refuse to respond to emails, messages, and wont call. My credit union said theres nothing they can do, but Cash App wont fix the problem.

I planned on sending the XXXX dollars through cash app, but I mistakenly ended up sending {$1500.00}. I messaged the person and requested the money back from this person but they only sent me back {$500.00} at XXXX. So I requested {$1000.00} back but they declined my request. I then began texting them requesting for the money back but received no response. I immediately proceeded to contact cash app as well as XXXX, my bank because this has over-drafted my account - {$900.00}. My bank, told me they would give me my money back within 3-5 but theyd have to wait till the payment was done processing to start an investigation and file for a claim.Today, Thursday, XX/XX/2019 I received an email from cash app saying there was nothing they could possibly due because the payment had already been processed and the person had withdrew all the money from their account. As well as my bank emailing me about my claim saying that it has been declined. I went to the police station to file a report but unfortunately there was nothing they could do. I still have bills to pay, food to buy but I am unable to do all of this because my check was already deposited into my account. With this pandemic going on it has made things very hard.

I use Square to process credit card transactions. They processed a credit card transaction for {$15000.00} on or about XX/XX/XXXX. They first froze the transaction because it was large. We sent documentation to them initially and they released the transaction. The customer filed a complaint with XXXX bank and sent it to Square. Square then reversed the payment on or about XX/XX/XXXX. The customer then informed their credit card company XXXX XXXX that the dispute was dismissed by him. XXXX sent a letter and transmission to Square on XX/XX/XXXX that the dispute was lifted. XXXX sent the money back to Square. Square has been holding our money since that time. We have tried multiple times to get a hold of Square with no luck. They have no number to call. If you call their main number, it goes around in an endless voice prompt system. You can never get a person on the phone. I have tried emailed them several times with no response. I have also sent a demand letter to their corporate office in XXXX XXXX with the release letter from XXXX. I have had no response. I have reviewed the complaints about Square which seem to be the same experience I have had. They have no way to get in touch with customer service. They will not return your inquiries. I believe they are doing this to hold money and earn the interest on their customer 's money. I have attached the XXXX letter that I also provided to Square.

I received a XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX in the mail for an account around XXXX XXXX. I have never opened a Square account. This is a cause of fraud/identity theft. I contacted Square. Through XXXX conversations, and XXXX email exchange, I discovered that multiple accounts have been opened in my name, using my birthdate and social security number. I have not been able to get consistent answers about exactly how many accounts had been opened. On the phone with customer service on Wednesday XXXX XXXX, they told me 4-5 accounts had been opened in my name, and assured me that they had been " deactivated ''. I asked for confirmation in writing, and they said that would take 1-2 business days. I gave them my email address. I did not receive the confirmation, so I had an email exchange with customer service at Square that I initiated the following Monday XXXX XXXX. In this email exchange, the representative told me that they had " missed XXXX accounts '', but now all accounts were closed. They failed to respond to my followup inquiry about exactly how many accounts had been opened and closed. I then called customer service again on Wednesday XX/XX/XXXX. I was now told that there had been XXXX accounts opened in my name, dating back to 2013. XXXX were opened " recently ''. I was told that they weren't sure if they would be able to get me anything in writing confirming that the accounts were closed.

On XXXX XXXX, 2020 I was scammed out of {$1500.00}. The company portrayed to be a part of a national pandemic rescue for homeowners. They had me go through a lengthy interview process and I was referred to them by a fellow army service wife.They were promising with about 15-20 % down and a service fee I would be eligible for $ 10,000-15,000 in Pandemic Assistance for Homeowners. This turned into my worst nightmare. My son who is XXXX years of age and goes to college full time, took money out of his personal bank account to help his mom out : ( After sending my payments I began to panic as they started asking me for more and more information and questions that did not pertain to the application I had just done with them. I immediately contacted my fellow army wife and got even more frightened because it didnt sound like her. It wasnt! she had been hacked! I contacted cash app immediately. Gave them all information, the number they were calling from, their information on cash app. I sent alert after alert to cash app. These hackers/scammers were visible on cash app for weeks and their number was working for weeks as well. Cash App did absolutely nothing! Nothing to help me, or to prevent these terrible people from doing it to others. Please, please help. I finally found you guys and the XXXX XXXX XXXX after months and months of contacting cash app with no help from them. Please help.

Cash App ( Square ) sent me a cash card ( Checking account debit card ) for which I never applied for. It appears that someone has stolen my identity as I was contacted by XXXX XXXX and advised that a fraud ring has my information and an account was attempted to be opened with them. Square sent this card to my home address with no other information ( no phone number, no email, and no address to respond to them ). I am concerned about fin techs that don't have proper controls or the ability to resolve a fraudulent account openings. I called square and they said that is a separate company not affiliated with Square. ( But their name is on the bottom of the Cash app website ). They said I had to fill out a form on the cash app website ( https : //cash.app/help ). When I clicked on the contact support link the website page asked for my email or phone number which is impossible to provide since I didn't request this card ( and the identity thieves put their contact information not mine ). In order to fill out a form they require a phone number or email address to do so. This is frustrating since I didn't open the account and don't have the information the fraudsters used to open the account. Meanwhile the account remains open with my name, ssn, and dob and no avenue to close or resolve the issue. Additionally the fraud will continue on the account without any ability for me to stop it!

On XX/XX/2020, I accepted {$4000.00} in prepaid gift cards as payment through my Square account. I ran 8 {$500.00} cards over a span of 13 minutes. At no point during this time was there any indication from Square that there would be a problem accepting the gift cards. In fact, 2 days earlier, I had accepted a {$500.00} gift card, and it processed with no issue. In fact, their website clearly states that gift cards are an acceptable form of payment, the following is taken directly from their website : " Accept Prepaid Cards Square can process prepaid cards bearing any of the logos above at our low 2.65 % per-swipe rate or 3.4 % + 15 manual-entry rate. Any remaining balance will display on the receipt. '' Later that day, I received a notice that my account was permanently deactivated, and my funds would be held for 150 to 180 days. I was provided a link to the " Square Seller Agreement '' to read up on what had triggered the freeze on my funds, however, there is absolutely nothing in that agreement indicating I could not take payment via prepaid gift cards. I attempted to contact their customer support, but since my account was deactivated, their online support form would not let me send any correspondence. I responded 5 times to their initial email notifying me of a freeze on my funds. 27 days later I finally received a response, simply reiterating that they were holding my funds.

On XX/XX/2020 I tried to withdraw {$80.00} to buy my children groceries but my account with all my money was locked without notice. Cash app has no phone number or customer service representatives to speak to. After emailing them over 48 times they finally responded on XXXX XXXX : Hello, My name is XXXX with Cash Support. At this moment, we still have not receive the requested documents. To begin our investigation, please provide documentation for each unemployment deposit received. This will speed up our investigation and assist with determining the next steps. Failure to provide the requested information will affect the outcome of your claim. Please submit the following : State documentation verifying the source of funds ( i.e. Notice Of Monetary Determination Letter ) Previous paycheck or direct deposit statement from the same employer Copy of government ID ( Drivers License, State ID card, Passport, or similar ID ) in the recipient 's name of the unemployment deposit Any other documentation to verify the source of funds Copy of your government ID ( Drivers License, State ID card, Passport, or similar ID ) THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE!!!!! I didnt feel comfortable sending in all my information to a random company that already hijacked my account but I sent in my info anyway. It is now XXXX XXXX and I still have not received a response, a cashiers check, nor is my account unlocked.

I have a Cash App account. On XX/XX/XXXX this I sent a payment of {$100.00} to XXXX XXXX. The payment was accepted by XXXX so I canceled the payment on XX/XX/XXXX. The canceled payment of {$100.00} was still shown to be missing from my checking account so I called my bank XXXX XXXX to describe what happened to get the funds credited back to my account. I thought the situation was resolved til the morning of XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX XXXX I received two emails from Cash App. The first email was to notify me that my account had a negative balance which was confusing since I had not made any transactions that would have placed my account in the negative. The second email stated the canceled payment I canceled for XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX was canceled and credited to my cash app balance. But it also stated that my balance was - {$100.00} and to make a payment to cover the negative balance. I tried to get in contact with Cash App but they do not have a working line that allowed me to speak with a customer support rep. In addition to this issues, someone sent me {$81.00} they owed me, and I instead of holding the {$81.00}, the {$81.00} was credited to the - {$100.00} balance. I do not owe Cash App anything, and this is either a glitch in their system, or a case of fraud. Either way I would like this issue resolved immediately! I am going also to file this complaint with the XXXX XXXX XXXX as well.

I created a Cash App that individuals sent money over to. There was {$550.00} in it. When I logged back using the same email my balance was at XXXX with no transaction history. I noticed that the cash tag ( account name ) had been changed to an identical name but one letter off. I contacted Cash App through support and by phone numerous times and explained the situation. They would not provide any information over the phone and told me I could only be helped via email. After several emails explaining the situation, I kept getting the same response below : Hi ___________, This is ________ from Cash App Support, and I'll be taking over your case right now. Thanks for reaching out, and thank you, __________, for your patience in our delay in getting back to you. I understand you can not sign into the correct $ Cashtag as it wont let you, so let me assist you with this process. After reviewing your account, let me confirm that we're unable to grant access to $ _____________ for security reasons. To protect your current account, we can not override this decision. You may continue using your current Cash App account to send and receive payments. We are sorry for this, __________. If any other concerns come up, just let us know. We're here if you need us! In addition, I ordered a cash card before the account was inaccessible. I attached a picture of the card for your ready reference.

Cash app States that you can cancel a payment or if you have a disputes they will investigate I had disputed a charge on my cash app account I didn't recognize the name on the transaction nor did I receive a text for said transaction I ask them for help with identifying the individual and all I got were automated responses And so after their failure to respond or give me any type of information regarding my request I reached out to my bank and dispute the charge. And I inform them that I had spoken to cash app and ask for their help and they failed to provide it and I also let them know that I did not receive a text for that particular transaction like I do the rest of my transactions. ( Please note this is not the 1st time I had to reach to my bank regarding a Cash app issue and each time I did I would eventually get an email asking me to verify my account ) Shortly thereafter after I receive a request from cash app to verify my account and when asked why I need to verify my account I got no answer I did try to verify my account using my debit card they want the head on file and they keep telling me they're were unable to verify my account even though my card was scanned in on their app and sent by email. and now they have closed out my account and are refusing to reopen or offer any assistance. please note that email associated with my Cash App account is a XXXX account

On approximately, XX/XX/2021, I send an email over to CashApp Support, regarding a problem of unauthorized charges made to my account. I was instructed to reach out to the company to try and resolve the problem. Upon doing such I was told by the company, ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ) that I would be receiving a refund so that I did not have to bother with finding a claim anyhow since they were unable to provide service and the account was deemed cancelled. The woman stated that it would take 3-5 business days to cancel and depending on banking policy I'd receive refund. However, that never happened, so I then sent another email to CashApp Supporting trying to explain what happened and they assured Id be hearing form someone else to open the case and get things rolling. Here it is XX/XX/2021 and still nothing had been done. Although, I did advise that I would contact the OCC. However, the OCC website appears that they are not governed by them. Rather the try the FDIC I started with this per web description on the OCC. I explained that there was nothing I signed and that I did not authorize the transaction and for them to proceed accordingly getting back the funds and here we are. I have more emails I am just not able to access them right now so below you will find screenshots of the emails I was able to get off my phone. I can send more including the initial email regarding the claim.

I have used my wallet with CashApp before with no problem, but for the last two weeks I've got a severe issue. I opened an account with one of my emails, got funds from some of my clients and then tried to withdraw them. The transaction got rejected by my bank on XX/XX/XXXX as I was reported by CashApp. After this event I haven't been able to recover my {$950.00} dollars. I tried to log in into my account but their platform cancelled my user name all of a sudden and I just lost track of my money. The platform made me open another account with the same email and, therefore, as the user was another one, I lost my money. I contacted the App 's support team, followed their instructions to link those two users into the last one created to recover my money, but on XX/XX/XXXX I just received a message from them telling me that after following their instructions and even asking for a Card from them, they blocked me and told me that they were not able to merge both users and that this decision was definite. Now they tell me that they can reverse the payments to my clients ( people that I don't know and which already have received their products ) so that I can ask them to send them back to me to my new account. As you can read this makes no sense at all. The support team has confused me, made follow futile steps and misinformed me, and I haven't been able to get my money back.

On XXXX, XXXX 2021 all of my money was transferred from my bank account to my cash app. My money was then sent from my cash app account to a cash tag XXXX XXXX. The amount of money that was transferred from my bank account to cash app was {$3200.00}. First {$10.00} was sent and then {$1000.00} 3x and then {$280.00}. I wasnt aware of this until the following morning which was XX/XX/XXXX. Cash app doesnt have a phone number so there wasnt anyone to call. I immediately tried to request a stop on the funds being transferred and I also called my bank to dispute the charges. My bank account was wiped clean. A few days later I received an email from cash app saying that it was my device that the transaction was done from. This is absolutely impossible. Im explaining to them that I didnt do it. I even asked them if this cash tag had any other fraud claims and they wouldnt disclose the information. I asked for a corporate number and they said they dont have any number for consumers to call. They also told me that they wont not email me back anymore about the same dispute the decision was final. Cash app then told my bank the same exact thing. So Im out of {$3200.00} because it was sent to some mysterious cash tag that Cashapp is protecting. I honestly think cash app is scamming people and taking their money because theres no way this should have been handled so carelessly.

Received email marketing for a PPP loan through XXXX on XX/XX/2021. Hit link in email, took me to the PPP Loan page where it asked for my personal information. I submitted application and I was approved. I do not recall receiving a disclosure of terms or conditions to review and accept online. On XX/XX/2021, re-payment for the loan was already happening, XXXX was deducting payments from transactions made through my square business account. This prompted me to call XXXX when I saw loan payments reducing my transaction amounts. I was notified by the XXXX customer service that the loan was not a PPP loan, but a line of credit that would be paid via XXXX transactions. When I was told this was not a PPP loan, I asked to cancel the loan and return the money, because it was something I did not want nor what I thought I was getting. I was told it was too late to cancel the loan because 2 business days had past and I would be charged the {$370.00} dollar origination fee and could either make regular payments to repay the loan or pay the entire amount, but I would still be charged the {$370.00}. origination fee. I do not feel this is fair as a consumer and I also feel this false advertising and " Bait and switch '' marketing technique and practice violates the UDAAP " Unfair Deceptive or Abusive Acts and Practices '' protections that I am guaranteed as a consumer.

1. ) Cash app permits and fosters unauthorized fraudulent transaction via unauthorized access to checking accounts and uncontrolled access via unauthorized debit card transactions by failing to adhere to banking standards which standards require active monitoring of transactions and restricting merchant transactions when abuse or unauthorized transaction history calls for the same. Cash App knowingly has allowed more than a 7 or 8 transactions from merchants with the intent to defraud. Cash App does not refund these losses and probably even gets a cut of the contrived losses as likely arranged with suspect merchants with which Cash App is likely working with, again to contrive losses, split the collected customer losses to boost their bottom line. 2. ) Cash app hid the underlying complaint ( see attached which dealt directly with fraud ). Cash App routinely does this to hide civil and criminal wrongdoing. 3. ) Without a doubt I believe CasApp knows about and enables money laundering and other financial crimes through its relationship with the judiciary in California, who access Cash app systems via known holes in third party " customer support '' and " technical support '' systems i.e XXXX and others, whereas such individuals access these systems and whitewash compliants to protect Cash App for which such individuals are afforded favors and cash from Cash app.

I submitted the {$100.00} payment and received a response stating that a payment, in the amount of {$2500.00}, is pending an IRS fee of {$250.00}. I submitted the " fee '', but nothing came through. After reaching out to cashapp support I was advised that they could not or would not act to assist me in resolving the issue. I have maintained copies of all of the online conversations between me and " XXXX XXXX '', the phone numbers used in the telephone conversations, the cashapp " XXXX '' and name of the party payments were submitted to as well as those parts of the online conversation where the company associate, XXXX XXXX, implies association directly with cashapp and the IRS. It is my sincere belief that an employee or employees at Cashapp are facilitators or co-conspirators to and of the scam. Documents have been maintained to prove that I acted in good faith with a legitimate expectation of receiving the services payed for. No service has been provided to date and Cashapp has suspended my ability to seek refund from the recipient XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX ( the recipient I was directed to send money to, as part of the business, by XXXX XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, and an unknown male actor, XXXX.

I opened a CASHAPP acct for small transactions, and after a week thieves hacked my acct and fraudulently withdrew XXXXXXXX dollar withdrawals from my Cash App acct when there was only XXXX in there. Apparently there are no steps to prevent thieves from accessing my account that was linked to my cash app acct. My XXXX XXXX XXXX checking acct was linked to cash app for deposits. I don't know how the fraudsters hacked without my present phone number, but there was an old number that was listed on my complaint to cash app which is no longer in use and is not live, so they could not get a text to verify it was me. I did not know the two parties who extracted funds from my acct, and I did not approve anything as I didn't know that they could hack past my XXXX dollar balance to get to my bank account that was linked? Cash app has NO HUMAN resources to file a dispute or complaint only, using the app itself, then you get an email, which can not resolve any real disputes. My bank gave me a temp credit and cash app said that the money was refunded?? Well ; whatever acct they refunded it to was NOT MINE. XXXX took the funds back on a credit reversal? I still have been a victim of XXXX dollars US and want my money, so I can close the cash app acct. Please help, P.S. I know of many others who have had the same issues as well as hearing this form the XXXX Rep.

-- Square processed three transactions for {$5000.00} each, totaling {$15000.00}, between XX/XX/XXXX to XXXX, 2019 in exchange for {$520.00}. -- The cardholder 's financial institution disputed the charges despite extensive work that was done, so Square extracted {$15000.00} from my bank account on XX/XX/2019 while the case is considered -- This {$15000.00} is in addition to the {$520.00} Square already collected upfront in exchange for the original transactions. -- When asked what the additional {$520.00} they are holding is in exchange for on XX/XX/2019, Square was unable to provide details of expenses. Square also indicated that there's nothing else they can do to make a case to the cardholder 's financial institution, despite additional evidence of the original transactions. -- Evidence of the services provided to the cardholder in exchange for the transactions, including hihg-value video and media work products with the cardholder appearing in them, were provided to Square as requested, and Square transferred this material to the cardholder 's financial institution. Square indicated that it has done nothing else to make my case to the cardholder 's financial institution and is unable to submit additional evidence for 90 days. In the meantime, I'm left holding all the risk, including an additional {$520.00} which Square has not itemized.

On XX/XX/2021 there was a fraudulent transaction from my account issued to a XXXX in the amount of {$6000.00}. " XXXX '' was an ex-boyfriend who apparently had stolen my phone and sent the money to himself after turning off my notifications to my number and changing his cash tag to XXXX from XXXX. I immediately contacted cash app and inform them of the fraudulent transaction and they had me fill out the normal paperwork and said that in 10 days they would give me an answer after multiple times I'm trying to reach out to them through phone calls emails and chat messages I was able to get nothing resolved until far after the time to which they informed me that it was a non fraudulent transaction because said " XXXX '' and I had previous transactions. I also inform them that this XXXX had changed his name and had also deactivated his cash app account immediately after he did this. I tried to reach out to them again and explain to them that this was not an authorized transaction there had never been any transactions anywhere close to the amount that about that night the biggest transaction was {$600.00} that he paid to me for a broken TV and yet they still to no avail would do nothing about it and told me that their decision was final {$6000.00} is a lot of money to lose out on due to cash apps negligence and failure to protect me and my account.

I was sold counterfeit shoes that XXXX XXXX stated were authentic, and he lied about getting them from a legitimate source ( XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX Website using automated bots ). When in reality he bought the shoes from a supplier in XXXX and resold them to me then had the shipping information changed from his address to mine. The transaction was between him and I. He is not willing to accept responsibility for taking my money and charging me for shoes that are confirmed counterfeit when I paid for authentic shoes. I had no interaction with the supplier. My only interaction and transaction was through XXXX. After my complaints to him he tried to make himself look better by ordering a real pair of the same shoes I bought from a verified website. ( XXXX ) The supplier he buys shoes from apparently has a factory in XXXX that produces a plethora of counterfeit products. He sent me a wide variety of shoes I could purchase claiming they are authentic. He also sold many pairs of shoes to people all over the United States through XXXX. I have contacted cashapp previously and they have not been willing to conduct their own investigation. I reported the indicident to the police Case number : XXXX Officer : XXXX Badge Number : XXXX Phone Number : XXXX Address : XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX MD, XXXX I have also reported this issue to the FBI 's IC3 department

I sent {$85.00} to my coworker on XX/XX/XXXX. Coworker accepted the funds which were transferred out of my bank account immediately. Co-worker advised she could not transfer the funds to her bank account because it needed to be verified. I was also forced to verify my account again despite having verified it before. Coworker requested that I give her cash for payment because she needed it ASAP. I gave her cash and requested a refund through the CashApp. I was denied multiple times. I contacted the cash app support multiple times, on XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX. They refused to help me other than tell me that coworker needs to verify her account. Co-worker advised that she has verified her account including sending a copy of her lisence, debit card, and a photograph of herself with her debit card. However, she advised that cash has decided to close her account down as of yesterday where she can no longer send or receive payments. So, it looks like CashApp has stolen {$85.00} and I would greatly appreciate any assistance with this matter, especially if they are scamming other users, because I have no desire to promote a company that does this to their users. Please advise at your earliest convenience. I do have documentation of all of these transactions if needed. Sincerely, Concerned CashApp User

On XX/XX/2020 I was scammed and robbed by Cash App. I called customer support using a phone number avilable on XXXX. The number was answered " Cash App '' and the person then began an eloborate scheme to rob me. At some point I was asked to supply another account number for a different bank account other than the cash app associated account. I refused and it seem to me that something was wrong. I went on the computer and my account looked unusual. I called the bank and my wife who unknown to me, was being scammed by another person at the same time. The bank told me to come in and file a dispute. I did and was denied after " an investigation ''. We went in again and we were told that we were complicit in the deceit and that the bank/credit union was not responsible. They further said that it was my fault because I gave the scammers the account number. When I indicated that when I call the bank I am requested to give my account number and I don't expect to be robbed. For me there was no difference. Ultimately, the bank/credit union refuses to return my money or cover my loss including associated fees totaling {$2300.00} XXXX hosts fraudulent and illegitimate phone numbers and ads. The credit union failed to protect me/my funds, my XXXX debit card. Cash App doesn't host a phone number for customer service and it is not obvious in their app.

Square Inc owns a company called " Cashapp '' i have been using for a few years now. i recently received payments for a vacation my friends and i are taking. in total i received XXXX, on XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX i elected to cash out my funds to my bank account. the money moved to pending and said id have it available by friday. friday came and the funds were still not added yet. by saturday they had moved the day i should have access to tuesday XX/XX/2019. when i checked this morning it said that they closed my account and the reason for closing wasnt very specific and then when i looked at the section i was told to refer to none of it matched why my account should be closed. none the less the funds were still stuck in pending status. on the app it told me to use a different debit card since the one on file was being blocked for some reason. i tried using 2 other cards and both were still blocked. i contacted customer service ( they dont allow you to talk over the phone with anyone ) so i sent an email, every email i sent i got the same automated response. regardless of them closing my account ( which makes no sense ) i should still be able to be returned my funds and so far i havent seen anyway. i looked online and over 1000 people were dealing with the same issue. Cashapp is scamming people and they need to be stopped. please help.

I was searching for an item on social media and I had came across the item I was looking for. I had conversations with the seller prior to sending him the money. He did all he could to make me believe him and he succeeded in doing that much. He sent me pictures of the product I wanted inside a box that wasnt closed yet and told me its ready to ship, all I needed to do was send the money so he can go send it through XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX, I had sent him {$470.00} for the product and he asked for it to be sent through cashapp. He then waited a couple days and then deleted his social media and I never received what I was promised. The cashapp account, however, was connected to my bank account, so the funds were taken straight out of my bank account. Knowing this, a few days later I filed a dispute in hope of getting a chargeback but to no avail. They informed me that they werent successful in getting my money back. I asked cashapp prior to contacting my bank and they said all I could do is ask the guy for a refund. He declined my refund. I grabbed screenshots of our conversations to maybe prove to anyone that I was indeed scammed. The pictures have him promising to send me my product and him sending me some information of his aswell. The cashapp account that it was sent to is $ XXXX. He also gave me his phone number. XXXX ( XXXX XXXX XXXX.

I was using merchant services, offered by the company Square, to take payments for a small business I was trying to start in 2019. On XX/XX/2019 I received a payment of {$40.00} from a customer, which I then attempted to transfer the net profit of {$38.00} to my bank account, only to discover I was unable to do so because my transfer capability had been suspended. The note on my account said my transfers were suspended while they completed a periodic account review for customer security. It states that the review process typically takes XXXX business day. It has now been almost 1 year since it was suspended, on XX/XX/2019. You can not reach anyone on the phone, its just an automated system that tells you to check your email for a message about the suspension then hangs up, which there was never an email sent to me. I tried reaching out to their support team on XXXX, but they replied just once asking for my email address, which I provided, then Ive been ignored ever since. I can not get in touch with anyone to remove the suspension that has been in place for over 11 months now. I have a balance of {$38.00} that is being held from me and no way to reach a person to talk to and have it removed so I can get the money Im owed. I no longer use their service. I just want my funds and to be done with them, but I cant get any help from them.

I have a cash app and I have had this for a couple of years. All of a sudden two months ago they closed down my app without any warning or explanation. The continue to say I violated the transfer and there is no way possible. I was planning a trip for my XXXX birthday this month and individuals cashapp me their deposits. I see this being done every day. my cash app login was XXXX XXXX initially and coming and being deposited into my personal account with XXXX XXXX that I have had for years. They shut it down with no warning and no valid reason. I then opened it and connected it to my business account with XXXX XXXX that I have had for several years. This cash app was XXXX XXXX and just recently they have closed this account down. You have people using their cash app for unethical purposes and still, have an account and I have never done such a thing. I would like to know the reason for the shut down of my account and my account that I originally open re-opened. I have tried to call and communicate with them by email, but their service is awful and limited communication. I am willing to go into a lawsuit in regards to this because I am almost thinking this is some racial bias somewhere in this underlining situation. I am not a XXXX, criminal, or trying to defraud anything, so there is no valid reason of shutting down my accounts.

I had a Cash App account a few years ago, linked to my then-debit card. I stopped using it as most of my friends used competing services. On Thursday XX/XX/XXXX, I had dinner with a friend. He uses Cash App, and he sent {$75.00} to my old account. To access my account and receive the {$75.00}, I re-downloaded the app and tried to log in. To authenticate my account, I was requested to provide my old debit card. I do not have it any more. I contacted Cash App via the app 's support function on either the night of the XXXX or early on the XXXX. After repeatedly explaining my situation, I was eventually transferred to their specialty support team via email on XX/XX/XXXX. Since then, I have exchanged 15 emails with their specialty team, where Cash App has not helped. I have been asked repeatedly for the same information and have provided it to no effect. Additionally, I was instructed to create a new Cash App account to get access to my old account, to no effect. I have lost hope Cash App can help me get access to my old account, or to reverse that initial {$75.00} transaction. By my count, I have now been asked to provide my full legal name ( and other basic information ) in the chat support app and via email at least 7 times. I am happy to provide personal information and reference numbers to corroborate. Case number XXXX.

I own and operate a small XXXX XXXX XXXX business. I sometimes travel to craft shows to sell my XXXX. In XXXX of 2021 I had two such shows and I was using Square to process my credit card transactions. Immediatly after the second show ( XXXX XXXX ) Square informed me, via text message, that my account had been closed and that my funds were being held. Trying to contact a person at Square is impossible. The only real option of contacting the company is through email. They do list a phone number, but once you punch in your account number a pre recorded message tells you that your account has been closed, permanently. There is no reason given and according to Square, no recourse. Any funds you had in your account will be held for up to three months. My email complaint fared no better ; I received a generic reply with the same information : account permanently closed, no reason, no recourse, no funds for three months. There was no contact information for Square in the email. Wow. I am lucky enough to have a business where this hold does not threaten the ability of my business to operate, but it could have. After this happened I did research on the net ; this is not an isolated occurence. People 's businesses are being ruined. This seems like some sort of scam to hold on to people 's funds for a quarter of year. Interest profits?

My boyfriend and giving me the Check that was given to him by XXXX XXXX XXXX after the account was closed. The check was written in his name I however had permission to deposit it into my account. I did so with Square Cash as he endorse the check however they took three days to deny the check and werent helpful and me understanding why. They denied it on a Friday and I snapshot of the picture again and I had reached out and after a difficult time contacting the company because they dont have a phone number released to the public. It was explained to me that the name is on the check did not match with the name of the account holder however in the terms and conditions it says nothing about Endorsing checks to third parties or anything like that I offered full cooperation and providing any document or whatever would be needed necessary to prove that this was indeed a valid check endorsement. I got nothing and its been an inconvenience and they have not been helpful whatsoever and to add insult to injury they require that I write for cash app deposit only now it is proving to be in a big inconvenience now that they Have denied the check and hi cant go anywhere else with it because it says for cash out deposit only now thats an inconvenience to me and its been a week and I have been unable to pay my bills and this isnt fair to me.

When using the app XX/XX/2020 I was preparing to send a payment to an individual. They requested it from me for services. This was prior to the service starting. I was being nice in sending the money prior to the start. The person in question ran off with my money. Blocked my communication and refused to send the funds back. I tried to cancel the payment less than 30 minutes prior to sending the funds. But there was no option to cancel the payment. No option to do anything. ( except ask for a " refund '' of the payment ) I could not even find any useful documentation on contacting cashapp to resolve my issue. So I requested a refund from the individual, sent an email to the company, and have tried to do everything to get this resolved without any communication from either party. Beware when sending funds on cashapp because there is ZERO options to cancel the payment, freeze funds, or report an individual. This is a scammers haven and this person has knowingly stolen from at least 3 other individuals ( see attached ) If you make a mistake then that person that just got your funds is very lucky. Because there is nothing you can do, and customer service is a non-existent thing with this terrible company. CashAPP, Currently this is an easy way for scammers to take advantage of people online. BEWARE BEWARE BEWARE!!!!!!!!

Ive deposited a large sum of money into my cashapp account to send to family who are struggling during this pandemic. I then tried to send some money to a family member and it stated my account has been temporarily locked for 24 hours. The next day I tried to withdraw my money and it stated my account is still frozen. I then proceeded to email them in order to find out whats going on. I got no response. The next day I then tried and it still stated my account is frozen. Mind you its the third day I have family who needs me. I tried withdrawing my funds because its big money I cant loose this money. And I got the same message. I emailed them some more and got nothing back. So I sent a complaint with consumer finance and the next day XXXX today ) cashapp unlocked my account. Finally..well it dont stop there. I tried to link my card to my cashapp account in order to directly deposit my funds since cash app made me frustrated. And they wouldnt let me. I tried multiple cards and nothing. I went back to the atm to try and withdraw and it kept saying I have no funds. How do I have no funds if I see it in my cash app balance? Its like the money is a ghost. On top of that they sent me an email stating my account is about to be deleted and to withdraw my funds. But how? If they wont let me. They are just trying to steal my money.

I had my Cash App account hacked, and my personal bank account was set as a funding source for the account. In dealing with this, my account had no funds in it, so my personal bank account had sent money via cash app to an unknown and unauthorized transaction. I was a victim of fraud. After this, I had contacted their staff via email and they stated there was nothing they could do about it, but i was more than welcome to contact my bank and get the situation handled with them. I did. A month later, they closed my account abruptly with no warning and banned me from the service and consequently closing all new accounts I had attempted to make. This is unacceptable, as I should be allowed to make a new account at the very least. I was a victim of fraud and instead of handling it, they are attempting to sweep this under the rug. In short, I was punished for being a victim of fraud, CashApp and Square inc has stolen money from me by charging my bank for the fraud charges and refusing to assist in their recovery, then closing my account and banning me from opening any other accounts for attempting to resolve the fraudulent transactions internally with their staff. I will continue to open complaints and pursue this until my account is either re-opened, or I am permitted to open a new account with full functionality.

Ive had cash app for a long time, Ive never had an issue with it. Ive never mishandled my account to where security measures would have to be put in place! Ive sent money and received money from the same people consistently and Ive purchased Bitcoin and withdrew it to the same address! My identity was manually verified and I have the email still from when I was told I had full access to cash app features! Out of nowhere I sent a payment to my sister who is an established cash app customer as well and Ive sent to her multiple times before! It canceled every payment on me and since then any transaction Ive tried to do! Customer service has no answers other then if they detect anything out of the ordinary they will cancel a payment! I really cant imagine what is possibly are the ordinary from transactions Ive completed multiple times before the same person. The Bitcoin wallet will not allow any transactions either! Cash app support have no answers and they are no help they just disconnect the chat over and over! I could use other platforms and I have but the point is theres no reason why I can not use cash app! Ive done nothing wrong they have provided me no information that I have! Pretty much all I can do is add money to cash back out to myself buy bitcoin sell it to cash out myself thats it!

HEY XXXX XXXX- TRY HARDER. Your responses to my previous complaints only illustrate how little care your company takes in addressing these matters. My concerns related to Square date back far before the transaction for {$3600.00} which you made the centerpiece of your response, however it was not actually even MENTIONED in the complaint you were responding to. While an error in your software did occur that day, a fact that you have XXXX myself AND XXXX, the recipient of that transfer about until your customer service lackeys were blue in the face, again that transaction WAS AT NO POINT EVEN BROUGHT UP. This serves as further evidence that this transaction and my complaints about your software are the true reason for my banishment from the platform. In fact, you have all but admitted this with your response sobre again I DID NOT EVEN MENTION THAT TRANSFER IN MY COMPLAINT. You guys arent even trying to be compliant at cash app. CFPB are you getting this XXXX? Unbelievable! TRY HARDER!! And give me me XXXX account access back before I sue you. Your ridiculous terms of service are NOT LAW, as much as you might like to tout them as such, they are just made up words with no actual legal impact given that square is operating a de jure criminal enterprise. I mean you guys dont even pick up the phone XXXX!

On XX/XX/19, my tax refund was sent to cash app account and deposited in the amount of {$11000.00}. Once the funds was made available in the cash app screen, I made one transaction to move {$51.00} from my cash app account to another cash app acount. It was accepted but customer could not use the funds applied. Then I moved tried to send money again and my card was disabled right after the first withdrawal was made. The next day XX/XX/19, my payroll check in the amount of {$370.00} was deposited and company stated that wouldn't be able to receive or send deposit because account was closed. I have been emailing customer support since XX/XX/19 and got a response from them on XX/XX/19 just confirming to me that the account was closed and I needed to contact my tax preparer to get funds recalled on their end. I reached out to tax preparer and the bank that issued the tax refund and they said that cash app had to reject the funds in order for a check to be reissued. Since cash app allowed the funds to deposited into the account and it shows up on the account its nothing they can do until the funds are rejected. I have filed a claim with IRS tax preparer bank, XXXX and now you all. You can only email customer support can't talk to anyone directly but XXXX is the representative who I have had correspondence with.

On XX/XX/19, I, the sender, sent my mother, the recipient {$55.00} via CashApp. On XX/XX/19, I, the sender, sent my mother, the recipient {$150.00} via CashApp. Yes, I authorized both charges. The issue is as follows. My mother was never able to cash out the funds & have them deposit to her account because her CashApp account is linked her her old phone number which is disconnected. Unfortunately, I did not know this prior to sending the funds. My mother reached out to CashApp & did as they suggested, she attempted to link her old account to a her account she has to create. That did not work and now CashApp has told her she can not access her old account at all therefore can not access the money. I have reached out to CashApp requesting the payments I made be cancelled being they are sitting in account that is now closed and the money can not be accessed.. They have pretended to assist but told me there is nothing they can do about refunding me the money although it was never cashed out. CashApp does not have a Customer Service number you can call and get a live representative therefore all correspondences have been via email. I am convinced now more than ever that this is a total scam and they have stolen my money, a total of {$200.00}. CashApp Address : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, CA XXXX

Since XX/XX/XXXXXXXX, my father has been sending automatic payments to me using Cashapp. Unfortunately, the cash account he was sending to was no longer in use. unknown to me, when I updated my cash app name XXXX and updated my phone number, this set up a new account. Because my old account was set up for an instant deposit to my still in use and current bank, I thought nothing of it. Also, my current cash app account, indicates that I joined in XXXX which is the join date under my old cash app name. I would have not thought my update created an altogether new account. It wasn't until my father inquired with me if I had been receiving the money he was sending that we realized that it was going to the old cash app handle name. When I reached out to the cash app regarding this issue and after several emails, their only resolve for me was to inform me that my old account had a zero balance and my only option is to shut down my current account and regain access to the old one. I then had my father confirm with his bank that the funds he had been sending since XXXX, were and are in fact being sent to Cashapp. It has been upwards of 30 days and no one at Cashapp can tell us where my father 's money is or has gone. We are seeking assistance in tracking the funds and returning these funds to the initial sender.

On XX/XX/2020 my Cash App account was locked for alleged unusual activity. It has not been unlocked to date and it is impossible to make contact with them. I received one email requesting information pertaining to devices used to access the account and responded with all information immediately. The app states that I should regain access within 24hrs, and it has been nearly three weeks as of now that I can't access my sole source of income ( unemployment payments deposited to this account ). I managed to get a response from their XXXX account, but they only state that someone will look into the issue and get back to me " soon ''. Meanwhile, I can not pay bills or buy groceries and am about to be homeless because of this. On XX/XX/2020, I received a text and an email from cash app that my number and email had been unlinked from my account. It appears they have deleted or cancelled my account- which is fine by me- but they are in possession of my $ 9000+ balance and the lack of response to my increasingly panicked requests for assistance is disgusting. On XX/XX/2020 I requested an instant transfer of my account balance to my linked bank account on a device I was still logged into Cash App on. This transfer has not been received as of this writing. I have attached screenshots of the same for reference.

On XX/XX/XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX made an unauthorized charge to my SquareCash Visa for {$98.00} in XXXX XXXX AZ XXXX I had not been in that area for over two weeks, nor did I make an online purchase with XXXX. I noticed the fraud charge two days later when my card was declined and checked my account history to find out why. SquareCash does not dispute transactions for you, they tell you to contact the merchant to resolve fraudulent charges. Later that day I called Targets corporate helpline that deals with security issues. The associate informed that the person to handle the issue had left for the day & to call back the next day. I did and they opened a case to investigate the fraudulent charge. I followed up Monday the XXXX per their instruction and after being transferred to someone I was told there was nothing they could do for me because there was no history of the transaction. I then returned to the SquareCash Support and sent an email XX/XX/XXXX requesting they correct the fraudulent charge. They responded the following day with brief instruction on how they will proceed, then I got another follow-up the XXXX with further instructions and questions about the fraud. I responded the XXXX and again the XXXX and have not heard any response since. Im concerned that no will fix this fraudulent charge.

On XX/XX/20 I logged into my bank account and noticed a {$240.00} charge to " CashApp. '' After searching around online, I discovered this was a virtual money transfer service. However, since I do not have a CashApp account, the charge was clearly fraudulent. I then contacted my bank to report the fraudulent transaction. The Bank opened an investigation and recommended I call the merchant. Upon searching the internet for the merchant 's contact information, I found that CashApp does not provide consumers with a customer support line, email service, or web support service. Furthermore, I found a deluge of complaints from people online suffering from similar instances of fraud related to CashApp. However, because CashApp offers no means for consumers to report fraud or flag a fraudulent account, the only thing victims of fraud can do is report the transaction to their bank and wait. This is ridiculous. I can not believe this company is essentially permitted to facilitate fraud. Clearly, since someone was able to open an account with only my debit card number, CashApp requires no real identity verification measures. And, since I can not flag the account or contact CashApp, the user can keep it open in my name. Please do something to put a stop to this company 's horrendous practices. All best, XXXX

I have been utilizing square for my XXXX XXXX for customers to pay invoices for XXXX. Over the last couple days I noticed miscellaneous charges that were not explained upfront before utilizing the app. When looking at the app it shows that specific transfers cost a certain percentage fee to transfer money from Square to my bank account. But, the option that I use which is 1 to 2 business days does not state that there is a fee to utilize this transfer process. When I contacted Square customer service today to ask about the miscellaneous fees that Ive been charged over the month and a half they could not give me a response on why I was being charged these fees nor did they disclose these fees to begin with. When transfers are completed same day to your bank account there it states on the app there is a 1.5 % transfer fee. So why am I being charged a fee when I elect to do the 1 to 2 business days transfer? And the fee is more than the same-day transfer. According to the app when looking at it there is no fee for 1 to 2 business day transfers yet Square has been charging me for each transaction 2.9 %. Square has also blocked me from being able to contact their customer service for up to a week because they said that I was disgruntle. How can you fault a customer for questioning their money?

I have a cash app card provided by XXXX XXXX. I went out of town and lost my cash app card and the next day there were fraudulent charges totaling {$2100.00}. I contacted the company they took forever to respond to me they had no live agent help over email and XXXX they were extremely negligent and not helpful at all. I explained the situation and what occurred and they had no response to anything I explained they simply just denied my claim and said that the card had been used and the PIN was entered. They don't know that my tablet was also in my bag that had my card and that most of my financial information is listed there. Regardless they showed that they could care less responded late and very vague and never addressed anything I sent them simply all they did was ask me a few questions and I responded and that was it I felt like I was talking to a robot everything that I mentioned that did not have to do with the questions they asked was disregarded and ignored. The fraudulent charges all occurred on the XXXX of XXXX. The first one was for {$970.00} followed by another charge for {$53.00}, and {$400.00} and {$87.00} and {$54.00} and {$580.00}. The company told me the decision is filed and pretty much has not offered any live support and ignored all my emails and never responds to me.

On XX/XX/2021 I submitted a XXXX payment through Cash App to my mother 's gardener. On the following morning, the gardener informed me that he no longer had access to this account. I immediately attempted to cancel the transaction, and sent another payment of XXXX to his new account. I contacted Cash App Support, and I was told that the recipient must reverse the payment. I explained that the recipient no longer had access to the account, therefore, he was not able to reverse the payment. The recipient contacted Cash App, and explained that he no longer had access to the old account. Also, he provided the new Cash App account information, however, Cash App refused to refund the 1st payment. So, in essence Cash App kept the 1st payment. I have tried repeatedly to explain this to Cash App Support Staff, but have not received any positive response. The recipient also contacted Cash App per their instructions, and explained the above situation. Cash App remained firm, and refused to return the funds. It appears that Cash App has no regard for the little guy. This is a minute amount of money for this company. I have dealt with multiple representatives, but have not been able to resolve this issue. I am seeking your help to resolve this issue, and receive my refund. Thank you in advance.

So i opted to have my PUA ui unemployment payments direct deposited to my Cash App account ... Well i only received an amount under what i was originally supposed to get ... i was supposed to have had around XXXX deposited into my cash app account & i only received XXXX of it ... So i reached out to Cash app support through email & a few days later i got an email back & the lady said that basically no more than XXXX can be deposited at one time, so i asked if they could deposit the remainder of my money & she replied saying they couldnt do anything & advised me to reach out from where the money was being deposited from?? I asked her if the money was going to be returned to the original place it came from & she said yes it would be..with in 3 to 5 business days ... I tried asking replying back to the same person from the email from cash app to see if they returned my money yet & she preceded to tell me that she could do anything else further for me, that she has given me all the information she could ... So then i reached out to the Georgia dept of labor, again through email & the gentlemen i spoke with told me that everything looked fine on the depts end & basically they couldnt do anything to help me either .... So now this is my last resort to trying to get my money returned to me

Yes I recently noticed missing money from a cash app card. Their was no record of the missing money and nothing showed on transactions. The amount available was just missing the funds. I went back and started adding up transactions and found more money missing. I contacted cash app support and through E-mail only was able to find out after several E-Mails on their end they said account showed a business account and had been converted. On my app it showed personal. They stated a additional 3 % per transaction was taken for a business account. I ask for any information on how or when this took place and no information was or could be provided. They simply said it was converted back to personal. I explained I didnt convert it and ask for mire information again on how or when this could have happened and a record of how much was taken. They stated no information could be provided. I ask to speak with someone and was ignored. Their is nothing on app or online showing anything about any of 3 % taken from the account. It was just missing from available funds. They wont answer any questions and will not refund any missing funds .. To me not showing money taken or not being able to get any information on when a account was converted or even a record of deductions is a very fraudulent thing.

Cash App My Debit Card from XXXX XXXX XXXX was stolen. The their used the card to make numerous unauthorized purchases within hours None of the retailers checked for ID allowing the thief to use over {$1200.00} with a POS attended checkout. The stolen debit card was linked to my CashApp account. On XX/XX/2021 I received my first online paymrent. Within minutes my passcode was changed and a payment was completed by me for {$200.00}. I did not initiate the change or payment yet with overwhelming evidence, Cash App refused to reverse the payment. There is now way to contact them directly. Each time I tried to address the issue, I had to review the entire situation with a totally different and uninformed agent who had no idea what I was referring to or even my documented account info. CashApp still decided that I had no evidence and initiated the payment. They will not even consider reviewing the case again after the thief contacted me and had details no person should have had, gave me contact Information - still no budging and no assistance. I also have several witnesses Cash App has allowed themselves protection and not provided any for me They refuse to actually research and attempt to reimburse victims of the customer they promise.

In XXXX, my account was compromised for a period of about a week and again in XX/XX/2020. I reported this to Cash App almost immediately. Upon following up, I was originally told that I didn't file a claim within 60 days, which I did. Another CashApp employee verified that, but stated that I never sent back a form they sent me. This is false. There was no form sent to me. When OI attempt to communicate with them, they ignore what my concern is and start talking about some random charge that has nothing to do with the issue at hand. I have several emails proving this. It's really rather strange and intended to divert a situation they are obviously guilty for. Today I have learned that XXXX XXXX ( XXXX XXXX ) has been receiving payments from my account. These charges, like the ones in XXXX, are a result of someone assuming my identity via the Cash App and transferring my funds out. My rights are being violated. I need them protected in the XXXX and XXXX incidents as well as this most recent issue beginning XX/XX/2020 through XX/XX/2020 and totaling {$2300.00}. The incidents in XXXX and XXXX total over {$11000.00}. Cash App is being deceitful in dealing with this claim. I will include statements with the charges circled that are invalid. I am including all statements for all events.

On XX/XX/XXXX I received 2 wire deposits through Cash App one in the amount of {$150.00}, the other amount was {$300.00}. I cashed out {$300.00} the same day XX/XX/XXXX. I had a remaining balance of {$150.00}. The next day, XX/XX/XXXX, I received another {$150.00} deposit bringing my total to {$300.00}. I still had not cashed out the {$300.00} in my account so that is what remained in my account. XX/XX/XXXX I received another deposit in the amount of {$210.00} bringing my tota balancel to {$510.00}. I cashed out {$210.00} what should have left a balance of {$300.00} instead I had a balance of {$94.00}. I quickly attempted to reach out to the cash app folks, but they work on a 24/48 hour automated email response system. During this entire ordeal, I never spoke with a life person. I even sent them documentation showing the footprint of transactions and how i never received anything from Cash App stating i had cashed out the money. Over a week or so, I exchanged emails with Cash App to no avail. I did learn through one of their affiliates z XXXX XXXX in Iowa, Cash App is notorious for stealing people 's money and hiding behind emails. The last and final email came XX/XX/XXXX with them saying they could noter any assistance I never received any explanation of where the money is.

On XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX XXXX I sent a payment of {$30.00} to the seller ( scammer ) because that was how much the product and shipping were. On XXXX XXXX : XXXX XXXX the seller said that the package was on hold and that I have to pay {$30.00} more to have it arrive by Tuesday, other than that I had to wait 6 weeks. I didn't accept his offer and waited until XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX XXXX, he asked for his tip before I had received the product, I said no to that, till he said that I had to pay him {$19.00} for shipping because he said he had paid it for me, this was around XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX. Soon on XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX XXXX, he said that he ordered a package that I assume was related to mine and said he needed {$60.00} to repay for some shipping problems, which I reluctantly agree or he would have the power to deny the package to me. After that, he decided to run off with the money by blocking and cutting contacts. I have evidence of these transactions and messages, plus contact info of him. So may please read this and keep the mind of this. I don't like people who would scam during a pandemic that took away tons of jobs while he just scams and gets the money. I can send the evidence through email because there is a lot of it, so I want to be able to send it all through XXXX XXXX at once.

My Issue is with Cash App. I have tried to resolve an issue by providing them with everything they requested of me only to get additional request each time I comply with a previous one. I have a {$150.00} balance on my account that I can not access nor will they give it to me. I had ( 2 ) accounts with them not realizing that one of them was still opened and should have been closed a couple of years ago for a similar reason. I took my chance and opened a new account and now I am in a situation once again. The company do not offer person to person contact and everything must be done via email. As I mentioned, I have provided them with everything they ask for until they started requesting documents that made me uncomfortable and at risk of Identity Theft. In an email, I explained to them I was not aware/familiar with the requested items and therefore did not feel comfortable with the request, They have made no effort to release my funds, froze my account and ceased from communication. Because I did provide them with I California Drivers License 9against my better judgement ), I immediately contacted Life Lock and advised them of the dilemma to assist with visibility in case of an identity threat. I just want my funds return/released and I will NEVER deal with Cash App again.

I downloaded Cash app a device app to help me with my investments buying stock that was linked to my checking account. In the past I deposited money to buy stock. However today my cash app account was blocked because I went over the trading limit. I called cash up at XXXX to advise them what happened to my account I gave the cash tag user ID also the asked me to download a picture of my drivers license to verify mi identity etc so they can unblock the account. Within minutes they started to transfer money from my cash app account and my bank account to unk accounts. They have stated that were doing tests which was a lie. All together they have stole about adding it up about {$4000.00}. I am really upset. Spent the whole day with this company trying to retrieve my account. I called the same number trying to get managers no one help at all. All them that I spoke to did give their names, obviously. Once I called them back they had no record of my cashapp Tag. However I do have the cash app card for proof and all the fraudulent charges on my account. I also saw hundreds of bad reviews from customers about this company stealing from customers and not providing the service that they were meant to provide. Cash app is the worst they should criminally charged. My money is gone.

My complaint is against the company Square. They are a merchant settlement company. I signed up for their services, in XXXX, because I have a XXXX XXXX company. The account was opened right away, and I started using the account. After a few days, they asked me to provide more information, which I did, like bank account information, and some other things pertaining to my business. After I provided what they asked for, they sent me an email stating that my account would be closed, because it is considered high risk. I had already processed about five thousand in transactions. Then sent an email stating my account would be closed, and my funds would be held for 90 days. This is my second complaint regarding this. There was nothing done, due to the first complaint. The reason I am filing this second complaint is due to the Covid 19 Pandemic. I also have a fulltime job, and my job just like many others, I have been effected by this pandemic. I have been laid off from my job. I work for a company that prepares XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. I am filing this second complaint, because I need my funds to take care of my family.

As a college student, I frequently use money sharing apps to send money to friends and buy things that I need. On two different occasions however money was sent to me that did not show up in my Cashapp account. This first time it happened my female friend XXXX sent me {$10.00}. I noticed the money wasnt there but thought it was a momentary glitch and because their is no customer service number there was nothing I could do. On XX/XX/XXXX a friend XXXX sent me {$30.00} through the app which did not show up in my account. Immediately I emailed support and they responded within a few minutes but after I tell them the problem and that my money is not there they ignore me. Then again I emailed them and they responded immediately telling me they can help me get access to my account and I explained that I had access to my account but that money was not showing up in it. I said to rather send me my money or refund my friends and I got no response. I need this money to last me the week until I get my paycheck. This company should not advertise a 24 support team that will not respond to claims. Im not the only person who has had this unjustly happen to them and I personally believe that this company needs to be held under greater scrutiny as a multimillion dollar corporation.

On XX/XX/XXXX I purchased a product from a company XXXX XXXX XXXX, registered address XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, CA XXXX - owner listed as XXXX XXXX. I never received the product. The total charged was {$160.00}. I reached out to the merchant multiple times. She responded once in the beginning stating that my order would ship the following week but it never shipped. The owner has since ignored all subsequent requests and contact attempts. I filed a dispute with cash app. They stated they filed the chargeback but the XXXX XXXX sided with the merchant. Thats not possible! In order for a merchant to win a chargeback dispute the merchant would have to show proof of delivery of the product. This merchant does not have proof of delivery and I never received the product!!!! Something isnt right. I submitted proof of my multiple contact attempts to this merchant showing her unresponsive ness, her phone lines were disconnected, her website was down for a period of time due to a billing issue and now its back up. I want my money! Cash app is unorganized and I cant get through to talk to anyone! The next step will involve my attorney, cash app, and the merchant. Cash app has been negligent in properly investigating the dispute. I want proof of the investigation and the results!

Square shut my account down after I had payments in the amounts of XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX go into my checking account from the same individual. I rent a room out in my house and was given a fake identity by XXXX XXXX a customer of one of the Squares companies Cash App. XXXX came to me and said his mother died and he needs money for burial expenses. XXXX sent the money to my account immediately so I had no reason to believe that my money wasn't safe. It started out at XXXX XXXX and went up because of what I was told was incidentals. Square deactivated my account and sent me an email saying my funds would be deposited into an account with the wrong name in 120 days. This was my paycheck money, not extra cash I have around the house. XXXX XXXX turned out to be a conman and I notified the company at once so they wouldn't return any money to him. Square blocked me from messaging them and doesn't have a phone number to call. I however have been in contact with Cash App. They have been providing information and advising us. Under Arizona Law, a transmitter can't hold your money for 120 days to collect interest for their company. They are also a Bank so this makes it also illegal. XXXX XXXX is a XXXX on the run. I have attached documentation to prove this and my claim.

My wife received an unsolicited Cash App XXXX debit card through US mail. The card was issued by XXXX XXXX, headquartered in XXXX, Ohio. Neither Cash Ap, owned by Square , Inc. nor XXXX XXXX provide human call-in customer service. Called XXXX and was told it was necessary to have name, address, date of birth and SSN to open account. Became very suspicious and filed incident report with local police. XXXX stated they could not close account, only XXXX XXXX could close account. Eventually spoke to two representatives from XXXX XXXX. First stated that my wife 's identity had probably been compromised. The second person told me the bank had no responsibility for issuing the account, but the account had been closed. Also, spoke to representative from Cash App, but he would not refer me to their legal department unless I provided my e-mail. I refused. Based on recommendations from local police and booklet they provided on Identity Theft I filed reports with the FTC, FDIC and now, your agency. Also, spent an entire day placing a credit freeze on credit reports and fraud alerts on all accounts ( deposit and investment ). Advised XXXX XXXX representatives and Cash App that I was filing various complaints with governmental agencies and believed they had violated KYC.

XX/XX/2020, I was selling an item on the app XXXX XXXX which a potential buyer wanted to purchase the item for {$350.00} and have it shipped overnight via XXXX. The buyer wanted to send me the funds through Cashapp. In order to obtain the funds I was told by support at Cashapp that I had to extend my " business credit limit '' in which I was to send {$300.00} to a " customer service Tag. '' After sending that money, I was later being told that there was a problem with the buyers account in which they ( cashapp support ) requested I can send a refund payment of an additional {$500.00} via Cashapp after which they shall then credit my account with the total payments of {$1100.00}. Also telling me that I can send the refund via cashapp or a Visa Gift Card from any outlet and sending details of a scanned receipt for verification so they can credit my account of the pending {$1100.00}. At that moment I knew I was trying to be scammed of more money, which I didn't have in the first place. I had tried to reach out to Cashapp by calling their phone number posted on the internet, and also had sent a message to their XXXX page and got no answer or results back from them. I tried to request a refund from the customer service Tag, but the person has denied my request.

on XX/XX/20 I noticed someone took money from my bank account. I contacted my bank and found that it came from CashApp. However, I had not used cash app. When I looked into my Cash app account I saw that monies was missing from my bank account and XXXX XXXX. It appeared there were numerous failed transactions and numerous transactions that were processed. I immediately tried to contact Cash app. But to no avail they would send me the same email over and over again. As I continued to look into this fraudulent activity I found that my phone number was changed as well. I then contacted the person but got no answer. I even tried to send a request to them to send my money back. Cash App has not returned my money that was stolen from XXXX XXXX. Also, my bank refunded me the money that was stolen from them. However, Cash app then put that money as a negative in my account as if I owe them. I have tried to file a report with my local authorities and they told me that they have tried to contact Cash App for information over the years and have received no response. This company is stealing from people and not returning their money. I would like to file a class action law suit against them to stop these dishonest practices. Someone needs to hold them accountable.

I tried to use my XXXX device to login to my cash app and I verified with SMS and Email upon login. Even though I did that I still could not make purchases or send ANY money from my new device although I was on my home network and I didn't purchase anything extremely out of the ordinary. So I try to send a friend XXXX $ and Cashapp ( Square Inc. ) asks that I send from my mobile device ( which I could not do which is why I was on my XXXX in the first place ). After this I was given no opportunity to verify myself further. I attempted to use my card for a XXXX $ and XXXX $ dollar purchase at a local cookies store and they blocked this payment too even though I eat there regularly. Shortly after my purchase declined ( even though my balance was XXXX $ ). Then I receive an email telling me my account has been locked for my protection. This is not fair as I now can not spend my own money because Cashapp ( Square Inc. ) uses a bot to detect fraud not manual review. I have also searched for solutions from people who have experienced similar troubles with Cashapp and they all have said Cashapp has not helped them with the problem after MONTHS. I am not in a financial position to go back and forth with Cashapp 's bot support system for let alone one day.

On XX/XX/2020, {$590.00} were withdrawn from my XXXX checking account by means of Cash App and my XXXX debit card. When I realized that the unauthorized transaction was pending, I called XXXX to cancel the compromised debit card, and a new one was issued by my local branch. I had to wait until the transaction posted to initiate a formal dispute with XXXX ( XXXX ). My research indicates that someone with my XXXX debit card number opened a Cash App account in my name and withdrew the funds. The card number may have been obtained from any merchant that uses Square to process payments. Square ( XXXX ) refused to help when I called, and although there is a phone number for Cash App ( XXXX ), there is no support for non-members. My research indicates that XXXX XXXX ( XXXX ) may have issued a debit card in my name. A XXXX XXXX representative confirmed that this is a popular scam, and provided a number for XXXX ( XXXX ), a company that will forward my complaint to Cash App. The way these companies operate is very concerning, leaning on each other to enable these transactions to take place while eschewing liability, essentially allowing the laundering of illegally obtained funds. These loopholes should be closed to protect consumers such as myself.

I was scammed by a fake investment company and then a fake law firm who said they would help me. Payment went through XXXX and cashapp. My issue now is I feel like there are scams of people who say they can recover my funds as well. So I am very weary of the process here until a friend of mine who is very concern about my health that is deteriorating informed me of your service that you can help me put things right. I was contacted by what I thought Was a legitimate investment company named XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, and XXXX XXXX XXXX they promised me fantastic returns on investment and we signed multiple contract agreements. Payments were in BTC through XXXX totaling {$55.00} USD. After they kept asking for more money I found the real XXXX XXXX and they ensured me that who I was dealing with is a scam ( I have the emails that show this ). An accomplice of theirs made as if he had fell to the scam with me and had me contacted by XXXX XXXX, a law firm that was going to help get my money back. I paid them $ XXXX in BTC through cashapp and after I got nowhere with them ( they made a big story and forged legal documents out of the XXXX XXXX I found the real XXXX XXXX and they assured me the email addresses that I was talking with were a scam.

On XXXX XXXX 2021 an unauthorized charge was made on my account, and immediately the card was reported as stolen. XXXX then arranged for a refund, for the amount of the transaction in {$81.00}. I have been dealing with XXXX who stated they definitely issued the refund back to my card, which at the time was reported stolen, but Cash App, or XXXX XXXX, reassured me that it would go to my new card. I have been given a complete runaround by Cash App or XXXX XXXX since. I can't ever speak to a human being, they keep telling me they need my email address in order to escalate this, however no one has contacted me in regards to this transaction. I have contacted them over 50 times, and every time they take my email and say they will be in touch with me, but no one ever contacts me. I've been dealing with this since XX/XX/XXXX. It is now XXXX XXXX, and my refund has yet to be returned to my card. I get no answers as to when this refund will be issued back to my account, and again can't get any resolve to this issue. This was the second refund to be issued to me by XXXX, one was received but this one has gotten no answer as of yet. This is a Cash App or XXXX XXXX issue since the store issued the refund on their side. Most recent case number is XXXX.

I dropped my vehicle off on XX/XX/XXXX for repair. This merchant uses Cash App XXXX 's XXXX is name. I paid {$1000.00} in cash on XX/XX/XXXX for repair for the parts.. For the entire repair he stated {$2400.00}. I have the confirmation text and picture of ID. Mechanic was suppose to replace lifters, cam gasket, oil. He ordered the wrong parts, he messed up my timing chain and oil pump. I received my vehicle back XX/XX/XXXX not working. I paid the additional {$1100.00} through Cash App. My vehicle is still not fixed and because of this service the XXXX dealer says I need a new engine. The mechanic replaced the coolant and put in the type. Vehicle is worse than when I took it to him. My husband has called him and texted him with no response. We have text messages of our discussions. I have tried to communicate a partial refund. I have spent close to {$4000.00} and I am only disputing partial of my money. I took my XXXX XXXX XXXX to XXXX after this and they stated since his repairs they recommend a new motor. I have showed that to the mechanic. He stated verbal if it was his fault he would eat the cost. It is not fair to pay for a service and then the services are not provided. This left my family without our family vehicle for months.

For approximately 3 months XXXX Financial Services has restricted two of my accounts. My wife and I have two XXXX XXXX, one in which we XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX under XXXX XXXX and the other in which we XXXX XXXX XXXX under XXXX XXXX XXXX Square has restricted both accounts and has virtually infringed upon our constitutional rights to life liberty and the pursuit of happiness. I have reached out numerous times to their customer service department with no success. I have tried to escalate to management but they will not put a manager on the phone. They keep asking for supporting information and when I submit that information many times their system will not upload it. When I provide the information to a representative they fail to update their system. Furthermore they confuse the two businesses ; they ask for COA information for XXXX XXXX and we do not XXXX XXXX XXXX through XXXX XXXX. When I provide the COA and other information they request, it never seems to be enough. They always want more. They have our funds frozen and we can not do business. We need the merchant account to do our financial processing but we just can't seem to get to the right person who will accept responsibility and solve our problems. Can you help us?

CASHAPP is a horrible company. I thought my money was safe. I thought my investments were safe. I had about {$300.00} in bitcoin sitting in my cashapp. Also about {$50.00} cash sitting in the account. One day XXXX XX/XX/XXXX ) I got an alert saying thank you for your XXXX $ purchase of bitcoin. I said HUH? Then I go to check and it said I was logged out of cash app. Someone hacked into it. Then after hours of trying to gain owner ship again, I seen that hackers took my original XXXX plus the new XXXX $ of bitcoin and sent it to their account. Very sophisticated scammers apparently. I personally believe this seems like an inside job because of the convenience and intelligence of the situation, also the commonality. It happens to quite a few people for small amounts but this was XXXX XXXX I was on the phone emailing, waiting for call backs for weeks. Here we are 25 days later and still no response. They always respond with a generic long email asking to fill out 10 questions which I answered already 6x. No moving forward after that 1 email. I give up. I take the loss I guess. Your money is not safe with cashapp/square company I guess. All I wanted was them to see where this money got sent to. I dont think that is too much to ask?

Square doing business as Cash App refuses to do anything to enforce their own nobody under XXXX can have a cash app account. After finding out our underage XXXX years old daughter has a cash app account, she has opened yet another one using the phone number XXXX. We complained about this in XXXX and Square admitted that they had no way of enforcing their XXXX year old and older only policy. Somehow banks and other financial institutions are able to do so ( by requiring a social security number ). Makes me think that Square is deliberately encouraging underage kids to use it. When is the CFPB going to take action? Isn't the agency supposed to protect consumers? And do you know what kids are using Square and Cash App for? Drugs. We found that the Cash App user ids XXXX XXXX and XXXX are selling XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, etc. Way to go Square! Here 's a list of other user ids : XXXX XXXX $ XXXX ) XXXX ( $ XXXX ) XXXX XXXX XXXX @ XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX $ XXXX ) XXXX XXXX ( $ XXXX ) XXXX XXXX ( $ XXXX ) XXXX XXXX XXXX $ XXXX ) XXXX XXXX XXXX $ XXXX ) XXXX XXXX XXXX $ XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX $ XXXX ) How long is Square going to allow this to happen? How long is the CFPB going to let Square allow this happen?

On XX/XX/XXXX my car was broken into and the criminal XXXX XXXX stole my cash app card. He then used it for multiple purchases exhausting my money on the card of {$470.00} I noticed this when I logged back into cash app after being released from jail on the XXXX. I immediately started disputes. Due to the fact that I didn't have my cash card I can not access my email address associated with the account. I also didn't have the phone and number associated with my cash app. It would not let me log in. I have called and emailed cash app several times and each time they go through the whole process until the very end where they tell me they're going to try a one time money transfer between my existing and current accounts. ... They always come back to say due to security reasons we can not grant you access to this account. And when asked why? they say unfortunately we can not provide me with any further details. And that's all that happens. I have tried explaining to them I have tried to prove it to them with different information and they still can't help me out.

My friend sent me {$400.00} over Square Cash on XX/XX/XXXX. Square Cash has a feature where it immediately sends the money to the debit card on file. I had a XXXX XXXX debit card associated with my Square Cash account. I had closed my XXXX XXXX bank account the same day. The funds never arrived in the XXXX XXXX account. I opened a CFPB complaint, as well as a dispute with XXXX XXXX, and they got back to me stating that there was a credit and debit for that amount on the same day, as a result of which no funds actually arrived in my bank account ( letter attached ). I followed up multiple times with Square Cash and they said that the payment processor confirmed that the funds went through and were never debited ( screenshot attached ). So, I'm in a situation where the sending party ( Square Cash ) is saying that the funds were successfully sent, but the receiving party ( XXXX XXXX ) said that they never received the funds. I had opened a previous CFPB complaint to this effect with Square Cash as well as XXXX XXXX. XXXX XXXX promptly responded but I have yet to hear from Square Cash ( it's been over 60 days ) Square Cash 's payment processor owes me the {$390.00} ( which was the net amount that was to be received ).

I used square card to take payment for items i was selling online. Square card sent the invoice to the customer and took payment via credit card from the buyer. They put the money in my account. I then shipped the items to the buyer, received signature confirmation! Several weeks kater a chargeback was filed as " not recognized ''. I provided square card with all of the emails which stated he had received the items, and filed the chargeback because he thought i was a scammer, but he would call gis bank and try to cancel the cchargeback, apologize for the confusssion. Dispite all of this evidence the money is still being taken from me. The amount is {$3100.00}, i am expected to pay even though i have no product. I tried to speak with square and they blocked my phone calls and are now threatening me with collections. I had to file a police report as this is FRAUD, he buyer clearly stated he got the items, and filed the dispute in error. His reasoning of " not recognized '' is clearly fraud and nothing is being done about it. It is considered grand larceny according to my local police dept. They should be going after the card company and or the card holder as fraud is illegal, and they have evidence of him admitting to such.

Beyond that, XXXX XXXX is not a real person, that is an alias for a person running a scam to sell puppies. So, XXXX XXXX should not have been able to validate in their system. Unless Cash App has people within their company aiding and abetting illicit activities. Cash App provided documentation to my debit card company that the transfer of cash was from me to me. That literally makes no sense.

The company is called Cash App, did not issue a refund in the form of {$50.00} on XX/XX/2020 at XXXX XXXX. They told many numerous times they would issue me a refund, believe me when I tell you that I am a patient, reasonable and rational person. I was passed along from " Customer Service Representative '' to " Customer Service Representative '' who each told me the exact same thing in that I would receive my refund within 2-5 business days, to date, it has been 11 complete business days. Additionally, I filed a dispute with my Bank called XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX who told me there is unfortunately nothing to investigate because there was never a payment received to the aforementioned bank 's Accounting Department. I spoke with XXXX XXXX, Branch Manager at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and I gathered her personal information : XXXX, XXXX which I then passed along to Cash App Customer Service ( otherwise known as XXXX ). Cash App Customer Service appears to be automated at best as they promised documentation following a dispute proving a transaction was made from Cash App as an " EFT '' ( or electronic funds transfer ) to my bank account, instead I was willfully told that my case has been closed without the promised documentation.

One account they tried to take XXXX in six different transactions, the 2nd account they tried to take {$250.00} and the 3rd account at a different bank they tried to get {$250.00}. I have notified my banks and filing fraud charges against Cash App. They have been texting me and calling me continuously but I am not answering their calls. I filed a report the the local police department here and I am filing a cw3 with the FBI Internet fraud. These people tried to take more than {$1500.00} from me and I am not sitting down likely with this. Cash App needs to investigate and see who is in their system scamming their clients. I have been told today of several people that this has happened too but no one knows what to do. It is time to STOP this and we are going to MAKE A CHANGE!

I have been with Square Inc for over a decade for credit card processing for XXXX XXXX. They started a new card ( like a debit card ) called the Square card where you can use your funds. I got it and a week later, I had 2 fraud charges from the same place. I called Square to report it, and they told me they would place a block from that merchant. Well, they didnt because I had another fraud from the same company. Now, Square is saying they will not credit my account the fraud charges because it showed the card was used in person. There is ZERO chance of that because I have never been there ... except after all these fraud charges I went there. They said they have no charges from me ( because I have never been there ) and their records do not show them getting money in those amounts at all. They also said they bought that XXXX a year ago so maybe someone had hacked into the old computers to get information. I believe a skimmer at a gas station or something like that captured my information and then made a card. That all I can think of. Square has treated me so poorly and they wont do anything about the fraud charges. Can you help me please? XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX {$62.00} XX/XX/20 at XXXX Is the charge that is fraud.

I have used Cash App for a long time without issue. When I receive a payment, I press to have payment instantly deposited. I pay s small fee and it instantly loads to my debit card. This debit card is connected to my bank account. They will not allow you to use a debit card without inputting your bank account associated to the debit card. My payment for XXXX I proceeded as usual. I never received the funds. It stated it went to a bank account I wasn't familiar with. In email only, because they don't take calls, they refunded the fee of XXXX for not being instant payment. Now they claim it went to an account I haven't used in years. As I stated above a consumer can't use a debit card with this app without an associated bank account. Someone there just took the money. I don't enjoy being stolen from. I really needed those funds for rent. Now I am having to pay a late fee and getting filed against. I haven't used the account they state in years. It's not associated with my cash app. It just suddenly appeared. And your deposit only gets routed to your account if you don't choose the instantly deposit option to avoid the fee. I never chose that option, and they refunded me the instantly deposit fee of XXXX for the error.

Immediately I called XXXX XXXX same day to tell them those were invalid transaction and its is fraud so do not release those transaction, but the bank still released those transaction on XX/XX/XXXX. I made another claim to the bank and I was be able to get those transaction back. On XX/XX/XXXX I received a letter from the bank stated the are going to debited back those transactions because Cash app said were valid transactions which was never been valid transactions. I made another claim but still bank keep denying because Cash app keep telling them those were valid transaction. I did report this matter to XXXX XXXX Michigan and they are working on it.

The Name of the company is Cash App, On XX/XX/2021, I received an email from Cash App stating that my account was locked and that they received a report of unauthorized activity on the cash card associated with my account. On XX/XX/XXXX the XX/XX/XXXX four unauthorized transactions took place from my account, {$65.00} at XXXX XXXX, {$60.00} at XXXX XXXX, {$55.00} at XXXX XXXX, and {$95.00} at XXXX XXXX. The money was sent from my cash app account by someone else. I did not authorize those transactions nor did I provide anyone with my personal information pertaining to my cash app account. I have reached out to Cash App 20 emails ago. They have been giving me the run around faithfully, and denied my initial dispute. They told the the XX/XX/XXXX that they did not receive any emails from me. Little did they know, I forwarded all the emails to the XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. Shortly after that, I received an email that I need to answer the same 6 questions again that I received the initial dispute denial email for. Please see attachment. I reached out to the XXXX XXXX XXXX and after they reviewed my emails and information, they provided me with Consumer Financial Protection Bureau information for assistance with this matter.

its been three or four months and I was told that in XXXX the funds will be transferred to my account and that the company would communicate with me via email although they have made no communication with me via email I have experienced a incredibly serious financial hardship due to the unwarranted freeze on my account this resulted in the company with holding over {$1100.00} The linked bank account that was associated with my account at Square is no longer active and I would like to update that information however Ive been unsuccessful at getting in touch with anyone who is willing to work with me to solve the issue every time I speak to someone there they tell me that somebody will email me Ive even provided them a secondary email address and Ive made about six calls regarding this with the same response promising an email that never comes. Square does this to lots of small business owners when they open an account and I have spoken to many people who have dealt with the same issue square is redlining and is unscrupulously operating without ethics and morals I am a small business owner who was a victim in a Ponzi scheme and I really would just like my money back as I cant even my bills and every dollar helps

On XX/XX/2020 I was offered concert tickets for an upcoming show via XXXX. After some back and forth in the conversation we settled on a price and payment method - CashApp. I sent the payment, and the person immediately asked me to send more money to a different user name using the same payment method. I told her I would not send any more money until the money I'd just sent had been returned. Further excuses came up as to why I wasn't getting the money returned, and I knew I had been scammed. I reported the issue to CashApp only to be told there was nothing they could do. First it was nearly impossible to find a way to contact their support team because of how their app and website are setup. They are seemingly TRYING to make it hard for users to hold them accountable for transactions they are facilitating. Every other service that provides the ability to provide mobile financial transactions provides protection for their users against scams such as these, but they have NO concern that dishonest people are using their service to ripoff honest ones. I tried filing a claim with my bank to notify them of this fraud, but XXXX said that because of how CashApp is setup they couldn't resolve the issue on their end.

I sent money to my wallet in CashApp and forwarded to an individual claiming to own a property for rent. When I arrived at the property, he said there was complications with the rental and said he would be refunding me my money. I requested a refund from the individual through the mobile CashApp but he declined it. I can not continue to request it through the app because now it is locked in the declined status. I would like to know what type of background information CashApp has on these scammers. I know if they have a XXXX and banking information. I tried filing a dispute, but CashApp has no where on their website/app to do this. There is also no live assistance in this area. I tried to file a dispute with my bank to try to get the funds back, but because I put them in my own CashApp wallet to send to this loser, I doubt they will be able to do anything about it. Ruined my week, my vacation, my financial situation. Since the transaction was through CashApp they would have additional information for the recipient and I would like them to at least assist in rectifying it, or provide some sort of additional security measures for those that access their application. I will definitely never be using it again.

My small business uses Square as our point of sale system. We redesigned our entire website to be able to connect to Square through an online store. Our last deposit from Square was XX/XX/2020. We were notified beforehand that deposits would be withheld until more information was submitted. Per their request, we uploaded the COA ( certificate of analysis ) for the XXXX products that we have been selling since the pass of the Farm Bill Act. All of our products are local and completely legal and we provided the documentation requested. Their website acknowledges the uploaded documents. Weeks ago, one of our employees, my daughter, spoke with a Square customer service representative and they weren't sure why funds are being withheld but were going to escalate the issue. No response was received back. Telephone contact is no longer an available option for my business. Multiple emails have been sent but only through their website so there is no record on our end and no response from Square. No contact is possible and Square is withholding the money from our customer 's purchases of actual goods from our storefront. Meanwhile, we still have to fulfill our customer 's orders without being reimbursed by Square.

On XX/XX/XXXX, I sent {$600.00} using Cash App to someone. They gave me their old username in error. I requested a refund/cancellation immediately but was told it was already sent and could not be reversed. The recipient and I sent multiple emails to Cash App to figure out to grant access to the recipient to the old account or somehow merge the 2 accounts. Each time Cash App responded with this message or similar - " I do not have any new information to provide regarding this issue. Please review the information in our previous emails to understand how to move forward. '' " While Id be happy to help you with any other issue, Im unable to provide further information for this particular case. '' And the last one today stating, " We have provided as much information as possible to help you resolve your issue. Were unable to provide additional support and will be closing your case. '' I requested a phone number to call, or someone call us. Gave contact information for the recipient so it can be resolved. I asked if my money would be returned if left unclaimed for a certain period, and received no response to this question. They did absolutely nothing to resolve this concern for myself or the recipient.

On XX/XX/XXXX, I noticed unauthorized activity on my CashApp account. There were multiple failed charges of {$250.00} and {$500.00}. There were four charges of {$250.00}, totaling {$1000.00}, and one charge for {$1000.00} that was successful. I contacted my bank and they opened a fraud case. The bank ( XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, reclaimed the temporary credit they issued and informed me that the charges came from my IP address. Upon further investigation, it became known to me that it was a family member that had access to my account, and tried to purchase a piano, however they never received the piano, the seller never sent the shipping confirmation and never shipped the piano. It was a scam. So I notified my bank and they informed me that they can not issue the charge back to cashapp for the same charges and that since they already issued the charge back as fraud, they can not re-issue it as a dispute. They told me there's nothing else they can do and informed me that the best thing to do was to contact CashApp, or take the seller to court, but we can not take the seller to court since the information they provided was fake. I tried to contact CashApp multiple times but no one ever responded.

Between XX/XX/2020 and XX/XX/2020 a series of unauthorized transactions were made from my cashapp account. The transactions were six P2P transaction for {$160.00} each and 5 transactions using a card and pin for {$5.00}, {$6.00}, {$13.00}, {$11.00} and for {$41.00} respectively. I've contacted Cashapp several time and explained I did not make these transactions, I did not authorize them and my physical cashapp card was never out of my possession in New Jersey. So it would be impossible for it to have been used in XXXX Florida. Cash App Support responded that since the transaction in question was from a known device and this device had accessed my cash app account prior to this event. They do not have enough evidence to determine the activity was unauthorized and denied my claim. Cash app terms of service ( 4. Your liability for Unauthorized Transactions ) says " We will protect you from Unauthorized Transactions in you Account. '' these are clearly unauthorized transactions as defined by the cash app terms of service " An " Unauthorized Transaction '' occurs when money is sent from your Account that you did not authorize and that did not benefit you. '' and cash app is refusing the protect me.

Please see the one of many emails that I sent to the company below. Good morning XXXX, Thank you for your response. I had someone send me money using my phone number, however I didn't realize my phone number wasn't attached to my account so I proceeded to follow the instructions in the text message I received advising the funds were sent. I received a message saying the funds were collected but the money wasn't showing in my account. I followed the instructions under support for collecting the money using my phone number but that was prompting me to create a new account, so I backed out of the process. However, the sender received a message saying the funds were collected although they aren't showing in my account. I tried to add my phone number to my account but it isn't allowing me to do so, it's saying that the number is attached to another account ( I didn't complete the process of starting the account using my phone number ). I have included screenshots below. At this time, I still do not have the money in the account. Are you able to assist me with either getting the money added to my account or sending it back to the original sender ... XXXX? Thank you for your help. Thank you, XXXX

On XX/XX/19 my cash app starting sending me text notifications that my pin was changed and my phone number has been changed. During this time I had not been in cash app or using cash app for quite some time. When I checked my cash app I noticed several transactions of removing money from my bank account adding it to cash app, then buy bitcoins. None of these transactions have I authorized, no one had my phone or was using my phone and I didn't speak with or give any of my personal information out over the phone. Now I have {$3500.00} sitting in cash app that I can not retrieve. Cash app deals with millions of dollars and they can't even have a customer service person to speak with over the phone. You have to email them, which seems very suspicion to me. And no one emails you back timely. In this day and age anyone could be on the other side of that email. I believe someone within Square inc and the cash app company are stealing peoples money and making it look as if the user is sending it to themselves so the bank can't reverse the charges. They are scammers and fraudulent and my consumer rights have been violated. I would like to have this company investigated and my money returned to me.

On XX/XX/XXXX I used Cash App to send money that I cash advanced from my XXXX credit card. I disputed the transaction with XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX and then quickly cancelled the dispute 10 min later because I saw the account the money went into. ( I originally thought it went to a different bank account ). XXXX told me they cancelled it. Apparently XXXX contacted Cash App but did not cancel the dispute with them. Cash App took the money out of the account I sent it to and took it out of the bank account it went to. Cash App sent notices on my account that read they were going to credit back the card issuing bank ( XXXX ) on XX/XX/XXXX but never did. I have been calling, texting customer support and emailing but they still have my {$590.00}. None of the various phone numbers listed for Cash App let you talk to a live person. They are recordings that tell you to email or do a live chat with a representative. I have contacted XXXX and the bank it went into and then pulled back out of and they both tell me I have to contact Cash App because they told me they would credit back the XXXX card, which they have not. Please contact a higher level of management and help me get my money back. Thank you.

My account CashApp card and Bank Account was scammed by someone I don't know or has ever done business with name XXXX XXXX, name on the screen is XXXX. I have reached out to CashApp two times and they have failed to respond! My CashApp account has been hit 11 times, because my bank card was linked to my CashApp card, which was a total of {$220.00} from my bank account alone! Then he hit my CashApp account that had a balance of {$180.00}. I am requesting immediate attention and full refund of {$410.00}. CashApp lacks the compassion and fortitude to protect their customer base! There system is designed to ask you if you wanted to send money to this person as they are NOT in your contact list, however they fail to ask if any transaction are approved before allowing someone to take money from your account. I have advised them I my concerns to the following agencies, as I can not afford to lose {$410.00} due to their lack of accountability I will be reporting this to the XXXX XXXX XXXX, The FCC, and Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. I would like a full refund and I will be closing this account. My old CashApp account was under XXXX XXXX. I can be reached at XXXX. Thank you XXXX XXXX

Around XX/XX/2020, I made an online purchase in the amount of {$98.00} using Cash app by Squareup. The payment processed and I was sent an acknowledgment that the transaction was complete. Due to a staffing shortage with the distributor ( COVID-19 taking off ), I knew that the product would be arriving late. I put it out of my mind. Around the time that the product was scheduled to arrive, I received a notification that a transaction in the amount of XXXX from the same distributor had been declined for insufficient funds. I attempted to resolve the issue with XXXX ( vendor in question ) but they have been running a skeleton crew for obvious reasons. I did finally get word that I should contact my financial institution to determine why the payment had not been forwarded. Cash app, however, has terminated my account and will not tell me why. They are also unwilling to discuss the missing XXXX that was deducted from my account but did not reach its destination. The icing on the cake is that since my account was terminated I lost access to my app and all of the transaction notifications as well. I have included copies of what little documentation I could find in support of this complaint.

In XX/XX/2021 I made a purchase from a company called XXXX. If you check their XXXX page you will see XXXX complaints and no positive ratings. They are a criminal enterprise. I did not know this at the time. They simply take consumers money and do not deliver the goods. After XXXX weeks of nondelivery I asked XXXX for a refund. At the same time I asked my bank, Cash App, for a chargeback. XXXX agreed to a refund ( this was a stalling tactic ). A week later XXXX shipped something by XXXX. Delivery was never attempted and the package returned to the merchant. So the merchant has my money and the package. Several months later Cash App responds to my chargeback request and asks for all documentation. I give them all of it. They refuse a chargeback as the item was delivered back to the merchant. I can't get them to see sense ( I have been ripped off ), so I contact one of their management directly who escalates the issue for me. This does not resolve the issue, and then Cash App terminate my account for contacting the manager outside of their online support system. Cash App now have the balance of my account and will only release it into a bank account. I do not have a bank account.

There was a misunderstanding with my bank regarding a dispute case back on XX/XX/2019. I filed a couple charges as fraud on from my cash app account but my bank inadvertently filed about 3-4 months worth of charges as fraud, which totaled to {$2100.00}. I didnt know this until recipients of the money Ive sent all notified me that the payments Ive sent them were disputed and retracted from their bank accounts via cash app. I immediately notified my bank, XXXX XXXX of what happened and they cancelled the dispute on XX/XX/2019 and informed me that the {$2100.00} will go back to cash app and everyone will get credited back their money. Nothing has come back to my cash app account nor to the people that lost money due to the disputes. Cash app also closed my account due to all the chargebacks and it seems the money is sitting in their system due to my cash app account being closed. My bank said the money was sent refunds back to cash app but their not helping me access the funds. Ive notified them many times that the refund is somewhere stuck in their system but they wont help me because my account is closed. I need help getting access to the refund that was sent from my bank to cash app.

I sent {$500.00} to my niece and the cash app said it was not going to be available instantly like it usually is. So we tried to get it refunded so I could send it using another method. We reached out and support told us that they would help us so they called. They told me that in order to get a refund I had to push a green button for the dummy account to refund it. I was questioning and asking many questions but he convinced me so when he sent it I pushed the button. Well, it ended up stealing {$1400.00} dollars from my account. He sent two more transactions and tried to pressure me further. I hung up and realized it was a scam. I immediately called my bank to try to stop it but they said it was too late. I filed a complaint with them and they did not help because they said it was the cash app fault. I also recontacted customer support and they said they would investigate and it would take 45 days. However, after a few more emails I didnt get any resolution. I have proof as the two additional attempts from this scammer in my account. I am so upset. They do not even have a phone number to contact. This all took place on XX/XX/2019. I have had {$1400.00} stolen by a fraudulent scammer

On XX/XX/20, someone using my bank debit card number took cash out on an app called " Cash App '' via a mobile device. I do not have the app and did not authorize the transaction. I was notified by my bank ( XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ) early on XXXX about this. The person or persons made several transactions on that app. !. Cash app {$190.00} 2. Cash app {$100.00} Since I learned about this early in the morning, I called my bank and immediately and canceled my card. The transaction of {$100.00} did not get posted to my account. However, the one for {$190.00} did get posted. My husband and I spent 4 hours on phone calls trying to fix this on XXXX. And today, XXXX, I spent another hour. It was impossible to get through to someone on the phone. We tried 5 different phone numbers and nothing worked. And there was no way to email or do a live chat if we didn't have an account or code number. We then found another phone number and someone was on the phone with us for 45 minutes trying to help us. Unfortunately, we realized later that the person on the phone was not an employee of cash app and we were scammed again. I have the phone numbers that we called and more details if they are needed.

I have been trying to attempt to resolve my issue with Cash App. First off, I have funds someone sent me that I can not access because the app is requesting my pin. Well I forgot my pin and when I hit '' forgot pin '' it ask for my routing and bank account number. I provided my personal routing & bank account number that is linked to my cash app and the app keeps telling me the account doesn't match their records. Maybe they want me to use the routing & account number that is cash app provides on their cash app cards but I do not have that as the card was never sent to me. It is completely impossible for me to reset my pin if the info they 're requesting doesn't match their records. When I ask Cash App to call me, they keep responding by saying go to the app and select '' phone '' but that is not an option either ... the only option the app is providing is email. THIS IS HIGHLY RIDICULOUS AND FRUSTRATING. I have funds that I can not even access and the funds have been there for almost a month. Their policy states that funds get returned after 14 days but the funds have not been returned to the sender. I would prefer they send the funds back instead of sitting in their account.

On XX/XX/XXXX I received a card from Cash App which I had never requested sent to my previous address and forwarded to my current address by the USPS. I have no relationship with Cash App. I contacted them via phone. The first representative refused to assist me and tried to direct me to open an account with Cash App to be able to close the fraudulently opened account. The second representative said they could not close the account opened in my name and that the only way to prevent my information from being used to open a Cash App account was to open a Cash App account myself. On XX/XX/XXXX I attempted to contact the company again and made them aware of complaints submitted to the FTC and the Federal Reserve around their practices. The representative tried to direct me to give my email and set up an account with Cash App to close the fraudulently opened account. I told the representative that I was going to be submitting a dispute letter generated via the FTC 's Identity Theft services and the representative declined to further assist me over the phone. I have submitted a police report and will be submitting a written complaint using the FTC 's Identity Theft resources shortly.

This week I received an email from cash app stating that I had violated their terms of service and my account had been closed. I was surprised by this as I have done nothing wrong. So I contacted their support chat and after waiting 3 hours I was told that my account was associated with gambling and other things that violated their terms of service. I was given a link to the terms of service, I read them completely through and through twice and nowhere did I find a rule regarding legal online casinos or any other gambling for that matter. I again asked for further explanation and was again told I violated the terms and they would have someone contact me through email. I have not been contacted yet. Also I have over a XXXX dollars in stocks with cash app and they have XXXX my card making it impossible for me to withdraw my money from the account. The only option I was given was to have my money transferred out in to another account of mine. I told them this was not an option as my bank wont allow transactions of this nature. They told me theres nothing they can do. So I had to find another bank app, open an account, and hopefully this one will let me add my funds from cash app.

On XX/XX/2020, a unauthorized transaction occurred on my Cash App account, account name $ XXXX. Specifically, a withdrawal in the amount of {$1000.00} was accomplished and another transaction of another {$1000.00} was attempted but I was able to cancel it. On the transaction that actually cleared, the funds went to " XXXX XXXX '' with a e-mail address of " XXXX ''. I immediately unlinked my XXXX debit card from my Cash App account and then closed my Cash App account. I subsequently wrote Cash App to contest and complain about this unauthorized transaction but was told in a response that I needed to open a new Cash App account to do so. I then opened a new Cash App account, account name $ XXXX, and disputed the unauthorized transaction and then was subsequently told that since my original account was closed, they could not help me. I wrote them 3 more time seeking to resolve this issue with no success, and each time I received responses stating the same response. On my last communication, I specifically asked them to call me at my number of XXXX and they refused to do so. Each and every response received by them did not address the issue I was attempting to resolve with them.

On Saturday XX/XX/XXXX someone tried to take {$730.00} out of my cashapp account. Cashapp locked my account for my safety os what they said, and to contact cash support. I have contacted cash support all weekend with no response. Monday morning at XXXX XXXX I received an email from an advocate named XXXX from cash app stating that they apologize for the late response and someone will get right on the problem. Still there was no response after that. So this morning I tried to contact cash support once again to resolve my issue and I received and email stating that my case had been closed for not responding for over a week. Which is not true because it hasnt been a week and I never got anything else from them. Now when I try to email cash support it says I cant contact them at this time and I should try again later. This is very disappointing all I want is for my issue to be resolved and my money back on my card. I told them I would also like to change all my pins/codes and request another card. If someone would help me with this issue it would be greatly appreciated. I work too hard for my money for it to just be locked in an app, with no human rep to speak to about my issue.

On or around XX/XX/2021, I used the money transfer app, CashApp, to send a payment for {$250.00} to XXXX XXXX. The money was never wired to XXXX XXXX and on XX/XX/2021, I received a notice in my CashApp account notifying me that the transfer had expired and {$250.00} would be refunded to my account. However, as of today, XX/XX/2021, CashApp has refused to refund the money to me. I contacted my bank to dispute the charge -- because CashApp withdrew {$250.00} from my bank account for the above-referenced transaction. The bank issued a credit to my account as a refund. However, CashApp has continued to debit by CashApp account for the {$250.00}. For instance, I recently cashed in on {$97.00} in bitcoin, and CASHApp deducted the {$95.00} from my CashApp account and posted a negative balance of - {$150.00}. In other words, they are still charging me {$250.00} for a transaction that never went through. I have reached out to CashApp ( via text and email msgs ) on several occasions, and they keep telling me that they are working with my bank to resolve the issue, meanwhile, they are placing debits on my account! Please help me stop this theft! Thank you, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX

On or about XX/XX/2020 at XXXX UTC an unauthorized transaction occurred using a Cash App account that I have. I reached out to customer service and indicated that this was unauthorized, and they simply told me that it isn't their problem, that I have to take it up with the recipient of my money. I tried calling this phone number in vain, such that it does not receive calls, and my bank sent me the response to the chargeback. It has a terse statement using few modifiers, and abbreviations describing me as CH or cardholder. I did not use my device at that time, and can confirm that I was asleep at that hour, XXXX approximately MST. I am now getting my provisional credit taken back by the bank in spite of providing a written statement indicating that I did not authorize the payment. Writing a terse statement that says at a certain IP address, and phone number a transaction came out. of, authorization does not make. To add insult to injury, they closed my account as a result of the chargeback and cited that this was against the terms and conditions I agreed to. I signed no thing stating such, and neither did I sign a sales slip like you put on your dispute response. Liar.

I established an account with Cash App back in XXXX with an initial deposit of {$2000.00}. On XX/XX/XXXX I noticed my money was not reflecting on the app. When I tried to use my card it was declined. There is no phone number to speak with a representative so I had to email and inquiry. I was told my account had been closed out and I had to create a new one to verify my identity. I did not close my account and I have no idea where my money went. I have been going in circles with Cash App customer support for weeks now. I keep receiving the same email to verify my identity and when I do so they transfer my investigation to another employee. I have been assigned around 15 different people only to keep sending me the same email. I have requested a transaction history to try to track down my money and they refuse to provide it. I have read numerous consumer complaints of the same thing happening to other people and cash app refuses to cooperate by sending people in circles in hopes that they give up. I am a senior citizen and I have been scammed. It is a shame this company has been able to get away with such poor service. I am starting to think they are scamming consumers.

I checked my balance on their app and it still showed {$210.00}. I went to another register. Attempted to purchase {$5.00} worth of stuff with {$100.00} cash back and was declined I tried again and was declined I went to the ATM and was giving a message about reaching my daily limit. I then get an email saying the previous XXXX declined transactions were completed in my account and my funds were taken although I never competed any purchases. This company doesnt have live customer service. I was trying to buy groceries for myself and my XXXX daughters. Needless to say I was on able to buy the groceries. I also needed to pay for my laptop that is in the pawnshop today by XXXX XXXX that now has not been done that was the reason for me trying to get cash back. After sending several emails trying to get help all I was told is it will take XXXX hours. Now after waiting several hours I still do not have my money nor has the company provided an XXXX as to when the funds will be returned they took my last money and I need it back immediately.

On XXXX XXXX, 2020 I sent my friend XXXX XXXX three translations through CashApp A ) {$1400.00}, B ) {$1400.00} and C ) {$1400.00}. CashApp confirmed XXXX receiving all three translations. XXXX confirmed receiving A and B transactions. I requested a refund for transaction C and I havent received any refund. I then contacted CashApp support requesting help on my refund and was informed that XXXX would need to contact CashApp support and ask for assistance in locating transaction C. XXXX contacted CashApp support several times. He was informed that CashApp is unable to locate transaction C for him to contact me and verify I sent transaction C. My credit union and CashApp confirmed all three transactions, while telling XXXX they can only confirm transactions A and B. It appears to me they are trying to run the 30 day clock out and then possibly say its been 30days nothing they can do. I have all the corespondents from CashApp support that have been sent to XXXX and I. I just want transaction C refunded. Dealing with CashApp support via email has been frustrating. Their first paragraph of their reply always sounds helpful its the rest of the communication is total XXXX.

Yesterday, XX/XX/XXXX, my son told me a friend of his sent him funds through Cash App. It is an app he is familiar with and uses all the time. He could not get the funds off the app this time and asked me to help. I couldn't figure it out so he looked up the number for Cash App and called it XXXX and spoke to XXXX XXXX. First, he was quite rude and it was hard to hear. But had us download another app that would help remove the funds to our bank account. I felt as though I was setting up something so I went along with it until I noticed the app was recording my screen so he saw my log in and password to my bank app. Now, my son still does not have his {$200.00} and another {$210.00} is coming out of my account from Cash app to a person I don't even know. I did not authorize this and there is no way to stop the transaction. I never use Cash app and my son does not have access to my account. He also does not know the person who the {$210.00} is going to. I tried calling the same number today, several times, now it says it is disconnected. There is no one to talk to at Cash app. I am filing a fraud claim with my bank, but this Cash App is definitely not a legit company.

On XXXX I used cash app to transfer an individual {$380.00} for an item I wanted from him. I had conversation with him on the social media XXXX about the item and everything. And one day I got on XXXX to talk to him again and he blocked me and our conversations were gone. So I filled a dispute through XXXX XXXX and cash app. So filing up on these disputes XXXX XXXX said everything came back good and there were no fraudulent activity. Well there is because I never received my item. And when I try to talk to cash app they tell me to get ahold of XXXX XXXX, but when I get ahold of XXXX XXXX they tell me to get ahold of cash app ... its a back and forth battle between the 2 companies. Ive been fighting this dispute since XXXX and nothing has been done and Im out {$380.00} because of it. I have the receipt from cash app from the transaction. Cash app has no actual person to talk to which makes this process even harder and will not respond to my emails or social media messages. Also I have a group of people that have been ripped off by this one individual and they have all got their money back, I dont understand why I havent yet. I can get you their info if need be.

I tried sending money on Friday XX/XX/2021 to pay rent and the payment never reached the recipient and then a duplicate amount of money was also taken from my account a 2nd time as a request totaling over {$3000.00}. When I tried to reach Cashapp by phone the first time, a recorded message said they didn't have phone reps available. Then I tried to find another phone number and reached a company posing as Cash app told me to download a remote app. When I was finally able to reach a legitimate Cash app representative that following Monday, I was handed off to several reps for the past two days saying they would look into it. Today I was told ( through email ) the payments were completed and there was nothing they could do and to contact my bank ( which already did on Friday ). After doing some research, this has happened to 3000 people this past year and Cashapp has done nothing to correct the problem. Please look into this and warn customers not to use Cash App. I have been dealing with this for over a month no one can provide a record of the transaction - which is odd. Now my rent is behind, my checking account is overdrawn - customer service is non-existent.

On XX/XX/XXXX I sent a {$300.00} down payment for parts and services to XXXX XXXX XXXX through Cash App. ( Square , Inc ). On XX/XX/XXXX I sent another {$120.00} to her boyfriend ( XXXX XXXX ). After weeks, then months of being lied to and misled, I filed a complaint with Cash app support on XX/XX/XXXX. They responded with sympathy and asked that I contact my bank and they would work directly with them to resolve the issue. My bank is another issue, but they did open a case for one of the transactions. My bank did inform me that the transactions are out of their time frame for a ruling in my favor. I right away ( XX/XX/XXXX ) contacted Cash app to discover they closed the case because they hadn't heard from me. They reopened the case and I went through the steps to reinitiate the complaint and they responded with and email saying my Cash App account is closed and I can no longer send or receive payments. I responded to the email asking how are the two crooks being held accountable, but they have ignored me. Can you please help me. I also sent money through XXXX to these crooks and they have already credited my account. Appreciated your time and consideration.

On XX/XX/2021 I " cashed out '' my cashapp balance to debit card which I had done plenty of times before without issues. This time the amount was {$3000.00} and it didn't instantly transfer like previous transactions. After a few days still nothing on my debit card so I called cash app and they provided me with the transaction and trace numbers which I gave to my debit cards customer service department and eventually on XX/XX/XXXX my debit card received the {$3000.00}. My debit card ended up returning the funds to cashapp for whatever reason on XX/XX/XXXX and I was told to wait 3-5 business days for the funds to show on my cashapp. I waited the 5 business days and when the funds didn't show I called my debit cards customer support number and they provided me with a transaction and trace number for the return. I've emailed cashapp repeatedly with this information and I haven't received any information on my funds or any type of help. I have asked the cashapp support team what to do next and how long I should wait and the response I get is ... " I have no further details to provide for this particular transaction, and no further action can be taken. ''

On XX/XX/2020 I sent my son some money for my grand kids. I used my cash app to send the money. The amount was {$140.00}. My son said he misplaced his password and tried to get help from the Cash App Support team. My son followed the directions sent by the support team but still was unable receive the funds. After haggling with the support team many times their was one gentlemen who said they were not authorized to return the funds to me because the funds were stuck out there in virtual space. I was upset that a company like Square Inc. who owns the cash app service did my son and I a disservice. The company does not even have a phone set up to talk with some one. You have to email back and forth. Now XXXX XXXX the XXXX of Square Inc is worth {$12.00} XXXX dollars and you mean to tell me that I can't call anyone to rectify the problem when you handle money transfers daily and I can't get my {$140.00} back because my son misplaced his password? Something is wrong with this picture. So, I did some investigating and I have seen other Cash App Users have had problems with the App. I will attach a communication between myself and the Cash App Support team.

On XX/XX/XXXX there was an unauthorized charge of {$1200.00} deducted from my CashApp account. Upon, me noticing the unauthorized charge I immediately reached out to CashApp regarding the concern. I called and spoke to a representative by the name of XXXX to put a hold on the card and to also dispute this charge. Following the incident a number of gambling transactions continued to they to be deducted from my CashApp. I explained to the gentlemen I do not partake in any gambling at all. XXXX also recommended me reaching out to the merchant to file a dispute but XXXX 's systems were not user friendly what so ever, on their contact us page I requested help to not only get any response either. After the credit was applied, CashApp emailed me later to mention it was removed and granted and granted in the merchants favor. They didn't mention why or how, which is super odd because the representative mentioned this was a known issue or a CashApp breach. Lastly, based on my history on any account that I own I have never gambled on any online sites ever. My pattern and history shows that. If you all have any further questions please feel free to reach out.

On XX/XX/2020 at XXXX I made an attempt to transfer {$410.00} into my Cash App account to pay rent. The app claimed that the transaction failed. I tried a second time and it said it failed again. I went on my XXXX XXXX XXXX account to make sure it didn't go through but {$410.00} was taking out saying the payment of was sent to Cash App. I contacted Cash App via email but they told me that maybe that my bank is blocking me from making the transaction but to make sure I made a {$1.00} deposit that went through. I called XXXX XXXX XXXX and they told I need to resolve the issue with Cash App. I was going back and forth with both parties then decided to file a claim through XXXX XXXX XXXX. The claim was being investigated for 2 months. During this time I had trouble paying rent and almost got evicted. I continued to call XXXX XXXX XXXX to check the status of my claim and at the end they basically told me they can't do anything about it because Cash App, owned by Square Inc, said they don't have the money and they can't help. I filed a claim through a different site but haven't heard from them either. It's been 4 months and I still {$410.00} short.

I get a portion of my paycheck direct deposited into 2 accts, my main account at my credit union and a small portion deposited into my account with Cash App. I had set this up 2 months ago and had 3 previous deposits go as planned. On XX/XX/19 I got paid as usual but my XXXX deposit never posted in my Cash App acct. I have been trying for almost 2 weeks now to get this resolved but keep getting the run around. I have confirmed with my employer that the funds have been transferred. See attachment. I tried to have it reversed but was told that XXXX rules won't allow it at this point. The company doesn't have a phone number or a general customer service email address. You can only reply to their emails. If you try and email back outside the email chain, it won't go through. I am very frustrated and don't know what else to do. It's only XXXX but it's the principle. Of this was a large amount and I couldn't access to pay my mortgage, it would be a problem. They don't understand Error Resolution regulations either. They don't understand that if the process takes longer than 10 business days, they need to credit my acct while they continue. Please help.

My account was hacked on XX/XX/2021 and today XX/XX/2021 the same day that I got my refund for the first hacking incident. I have reached out to the company and asked why wasn't the refund and the account secured when they know the account as been hacked more than once within a few hours. I advised that it had to be someone within the company in order for it to happen the way that it did. They don't provide a phone number so that you can talk to someone you have to wait until they decide to email you back. I advised the company that is ministry money that was taken today and no one has responded to me. They emailed me and said I had to link my bank card in order for them to refund my money. Which makes no sense when the money was refunded without my card being linked. I have a cash app card so they wouldn't need my bank card to refund my money. One of Cashapp 's CSR emailed me and said " take it easy '' our team support will contact you case closed. I don't have a way to forward those emails to you. My account was hacked for {$170.00}. When I tried to send the first amount to my son in fear of being hacked Cashapp would not allow me to send it.

He still responds to text but never answers the phone. He tells me his accounts are frozen : XXXX, XXXX XXXX, XXXX, & Cash App. He sent me a picture of his XXXX XXXX account. It was in the negative. I definitely can confirm that he is a scammer. He has recently told me that his job only pays him in cash and he has no way to send me a refund.

I sent money to a friend but my friend is not able to get into the account because it is asking her to verify a debit card that she no longer has. My friend opened up another account with Cash app and has asked them for help getting into the old account. Cash app says that they can not help her get into the old account nor can they transfer the money to her newer account. She has been in contact with Cash app since XX/XX/XXXX. I have also been in contact with Cash app since XX/XX/XXXX. I would like for either her to receive the intended money or for them to just send me back my money. Cash app keeps saying that there is nothing they can do for me & my friend gets the same response. I sent {$66.00} on XX/XX/XXXX. I contacted Cash app on XX/XX/XXXX by email. I then contacted them again by phone numerous times with the last time being on XX/XX/XXXX At that point I asked for a manager. I was told that I can only communicate with a manger through email. Manager stated that they could not help & the recipient needs to reach out. However she has been reaching out to Cash app support for as long as I have and they have not helped retrieve the money.

On XX/XX/2020, my company XXXXXXXX XXXX ran it's first payroll run with Square Payroll service. I was repeatedly reminded and solicited advertisements for their payroll service. Immediately after withdrawing the funds for ACH payment, Square Inc deactivated my payroll service account without notice. Their reasoning was the fact that they can deactivate anyone 's account if they feel like stealing their money. Anyways when I tried contacting Square Inc my attempts were blocked. When I figured out a way to get around their blocks that prevent customers who had their money stolen and they then blocked my phone number. They kept telling me different dates at which the money would be returned and I realize now that there was never any intention on returning the payroll funds Square stole. Originally it was 60 days but the funds were never returned. This is a repeated pattern of behavior by Square apparently, judging by their social media mentions. It seems like pretty textbook ACH fraud. All in all, Square stole over {$17000.00} from my company and put it out of business. I have bank statements and emails verifying all my claims in the complaint.

I messaged this person XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX and he confirmed that he purchased from a " XXXX '' in Illinois. When the conversation went on this guy was none the less nice not polite. I then tried to reach out to XXXX as well as my bank and Cash app to get my money back. My financial institution refunded my money temporarily until they conducted an investigation. I got a letter on Thursday 4- stating my bank was taking the funds back as their investigation shows that cash app are not responsible. That they are a 3 party financial center. But they need to be held responsible as they claim its safe but it is not.

Today, I received an unsolicited Cash App card in the mail. Based on internet research, the card appears to be a prepaid debit card. XXXX, XXXX XXXX appears to explain that they send these out by request WITHOUT a credit check. If they did a credit check, they would have found that I have a credit freeze on and opted out of credit card offers. This is esp. worrisome as someone fraudulently filed for unemployment using my information. The useless phone number given online to contact XXXX XXXX instructs you to listen to their online instructions. No live person can be reached on any branch of their " Customer Service Line '' ( XXXX ) The only way to get to customer service for this card is to activate the card and download their software to a phone. I don't want to activate the card and don't have a phone to download an app. I want the card shut down. Numerous scammers are now soliciting online to solve problems with Cash App because users can't interact with a customer service department. How is it legal that they can send out credit cards that can be attacked by scammers with no way for individuals to shut down the card?

on XX/XX/15 my entire cash balance of XXXX was transferred to another bank debit card at XXXX of which I hhave never done business.. The day before this or these hackers tried to move my money to a different Visa Debit card but it was not the right card or something. On that day, for the first tiime in over a year and half my account information was deleted, name, bank, phone, email etc and replaced with someone who used the name XXXX XXXX which doesn't seem a legal name. I have never been able to get the name of the bank card holder but it wasn't me.. This is just a few bits of the story but this bank obviously does not have protections to prevent my money bbeing transferred to a foreigh bank. Not a purchase for something. Transfer of all my monney. Local PD has report. I have never given my phone pin or the pin for the Cash App. There is not appropriate safety measures to protect our mooney and they have not replaced it provisionally. They say they can't determine if or not it was authorized. They have more than enough documentation and history to see I was robbed and I am victim. Stop thiis aand restore my financial position.

I added a boost to my cash card for {$30.00} off a purchase of {$30.00} or more anywhere. I contacted cash app to make sure my {$30.00} purchase would qualify many days before the boost was set to expire. I communicated with them that I did not see any information about minimum purchase requirements when clicking on the boost. I asked them, specifically, on multiple occasions whether or not my purchase would be eligible and they would not give me a straight answer. Not until after my boost expired. Then they finally said that the purchase needed to be {$30.00} or more. I wrote in several times asking for this information and they withheld it from me until after my boost expired. I even suggested to them that I felt they were going to wait until after my boost expired then tell me my purchase didn't qualify for one reason or another. I suggested this BEFORE my boost expired. They proceeded to do exactly what I said they would. I don't know what I could've done differently. I made an effort and contacted them several times only to be met with copy/pasted nonsense that didn't pertain to my situation or answer any of my questions.

On XX/XX/XXXX Cash app.com sent {$800.00} from my account to XXXX XXXX XXXX. I was told by Cash App that I had authorized this transfer to take place, but I knew nothing about it and do not have an account at XXXX XXXX. Cash app has no telephone to reach them at so all communication has been by email. Each time i received a response from them there was a different person investigating this matter, So far there have been nine employees who were supposed to be investigating this matter but none have succeeded in accomplishing anything. I called XXXX XXXX to find out whose account the money was sent to but because of privacy matters they could not give me the name. I requested Cash app to show me documentation giving them authority to send my money to XXXX XXXX, but they refused to do that. Of course they could not because I never authorized it and do not have an account there. Can you please help me. That was all the money I have.

On, XX/XX/2021, a client of mine paid me via an ACH transfer via Square. They put a 4-day hold on it which is their normal operating procedure. On XX/XX/2021, I was informed via email that they deactivated my account and informed me they would hold any money in the account 90 days before they would release it. The amount they received from my client was {$120.00}. The only way they would let me resolve the issue was to issue the client a refund, which I did, and arrange for payment differently. Fortunately, my client paid me in a different method. I attempted on contacting Square.Com on the phone to no avail. When I finally did get through, I was not able to talk to a person, instead, I was inputting information into their phone system. I was informed that because they deactivated my account they would not put me through to anybody and that no other information was available. In short, I am a very dissatisfied customer and they delayed my ability to work for an entire day. This is unfair to me, my clients, and extremely unprofessional. I requested they contact me via email regarding this issue which they have refused to do.

On XX/XX/2021, I tried to transfer funds from my Square merchant account to my bank account, as I do normally. I got an error message that said, " Instant Transfer Unavailable : We were unable to transfer funds. Please visit our Support Center for details ''. I didn't even initiate an Instant Transfer. I chose the standard, 1- 2 business days. I visited the Support Center, a very broad, general resource. I went through all channels of communication they have available. There is no phone line. After submitting the " email '' option by way of a parameter text box on their website, it says that you will get a response in 24 - 48 hours. Four days later, I decided to submit another email through the website. I have yet to get a response. After going to XXXX, I realized that this is happening to a number of small businesses. Square is withholding funds without any notice or response to the matter. Some business owners have said that their balance now says XXXX as their balance. Mine currently has {$1600.00}. I would like access to my funds immediately before mine shows as a XXXX balance. Please, please investigate Square now.

On XX/XX/XXXX, I sent money via CashApp to someone. The money quickly left my bank account as it is tied to my debit card. The next day, XX/XX/XXXX, the money was refunded via CashApp by that person as the transaction between the 2 parties was cancelled. I received a notification via CashApp that the money would reach my accound by Wednesday, XX/XX/XXXX. When the money did not return to my checking account, I reached out to both CashApp and my bank to attempt to resolve the issue. CashApp has been giving me generic responses with information that my bank can not use to track the funds. Today marks 5 business days that I was supposed to wait for the transaction and the funds are still not showing up anywhere on my end and they are not on the other end of the original party I sent them to. After reaching out to CashApp, there is no sense of urgency to solve the problem as they see it's now the problem of my bank. I am beyond frustrated that I am not getting any further with them and have no other information from them other than a " transaction number '' that is supposed to reveal where the funds are. My bank says otherwise.

On XX/XX/19 I sent XXXX $ from my XXXX XXXX account to cash app for the purposes of buying and investing in bitcoin. When the price of bitcoin dropped i attempted to purchase it, only to find out that my account was closed. I tried withdrawing my money only for all banks and cards added to be rejected by cash app. I contacted cash app as soon as i was aware my account was closed ( XX/XX/19 ) and was rewarded with an automated response and no reasoning. I again tried to contact them on the same day with no response. I waited to see if my bank or card would be accepted at a later date however, to this day all attempts to withdrawal my personal funds are rejected. I again contacted support on XX/XX/19 on both email and PM on twitter, twitter returned with an automated response letting me know theyll look into it. I was emailed a few minutes later with a response that the decision to close my account was final and instructions to recover funds. I again attempted to follow these instructions only for my banks and cards to be rejected yet again. Essentially this locked XXXX $ into my account which cashapp refuses to return.

The issue is the difference between the amount of referral money I received from the Cash App versus the amount of money specified on a tax form that Square, Inc. sent me. Square, Inc. owns Cash App. Last XXXX I started to receive an unusually large amount of referrals for the Cash App. I was able to withdrawal some of the money ( {$1000.00} ) but not all understandably Square appeared to terminate my Cash Account. The only way I could determine that my account was terminated was that I received an email stating my email was unlinked from the account, a text stating that my phone number had been unlinked from my account, and my " cashtag '' URL returned a 404 Not Found error. At the time I reached out to the Cash App support, but received no response. On XX/XX/XXXX2021, I received a 1099-NEC tax form from Square, Inc. stating that Square had paid me {$19000.00}. ( Line 1 of the 1099-NEC, labeled Nonemployee compensation, lists an amount of {$19000.00}. ) OnXX/XX/2021, I " XXXX '' at @ CashApp and @ CashSupport about the issue. This led to an email inquiring on the issue ; I responded but have heard nothing since.

I was sent {$100.00} on Cash App by a family member to pay my light bill at XXXX XXXX on XXXX XXXX. I then had the money scheduled to go to my bill the following day. At XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/2019, I received some notifications on my phone stating that I sent {$20.00} then {$80.00} to a person that I did not know. When I went to look at my account it showed that someone had added their email to my account and sent the money to their Cash App account. When I went to refresh the page to look at the email address they had deleted their account by that time and also removed their email address from my account. I then went to ask for a refund of my money and the app said they were unable to request cash from that person. I also changed my pin number and removed my bank card from the account. After that I contacted the Cash App Support Team at XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/2019 and they contacted me back at XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/2019 and filed a claim. The support team contacted me back and said that they will investigate the claim and that I would hear back from them shortly. After I explained what happened, I have not heard from them since.

While doing my taxes for XXXX I realized that I received a 1099 form from Square for {$790.00}. Attached is a picture of the form. I believe this is related to an incident in 2020 when I was getting spammed non-stop with referral bonuses on Cash App within a day or two. I didn't even withdraw a cent, and my account was shut down for fraud or whatever. I'm not sure how the referral bonuses were coming in, so that's why I didn't withdraw any of the funds. Now that I have this 1099 issued, I would have to pay taxes on that {$790.00} of reported income. I contacted Cash App support via XXXX, phone, and e-mail in the past few days. Both support on XXXX and phone said that it could only be handled through e-mail. The e-mail support was initially very responsive, but I wasn't getting any resolution. A different support agent was responding to the e-mail chain each time. The responses are very similar and clearly generated somehow. Nobody seems to grasp my issue. According to support, my account was closed on XX/XX/2020. That's about all the info I could get. They said once the account is disabled, it can't be accessed again.

A friend asked me to use Cash App to repay me for an item I purchased for him. The amount was XXXX XXXX I had a Cash App account but stopped using it because of problems with it. Also, at that time, I had the Cash app on another tablet that was since stolen, and a different debit card. I could not access my old Cash app account, so I opened another. The system would not let me access the account, the message was " unable to verify device. '' I tried multiple times over multiple days. After those attempts I used the chat feature for assistance. The chat clearly was not a human. The responses were too fast to be written out, and none addressed my problem. Many were boilerplate I followed the instructions, again, and again, multiple times. They asked me to do the same thing, which lead to the same result. I asked for a human, and to have a human guide me through what to do. XXXX did identify herself as a human. No success. I responded that I was going to get my friend to back the transaction out so he could pay me directly. He gave me the Identifier : # XXXX, the date was XXXX XXXX account to pay was # XXXX.

I had a question with my cash app so naturally I thought that they had a customer service #. So I found a number that was associate with the Cash App name and Logo on XXXX and I called it the number is XXXX and this number is still available online. I called them and they told me that they needed me to log on to my android phone so I downloaded it. They logged on to my phone and gained access to my cash app and told me that they need to put in a code of numbers to correct the issue. They put in {$530.00} and sent it to XXXX XXXX. tag ID : $ XXXX then they put in the amount of {$770.00} to XXXX XXXX. tag ID : $ XXXX and another amount of {$870.00} also I questioned them repeatedly and they assured me that the money would return and that this was just a code. Then when the transactions completed they hung up. I called back and they went in my phone to try to cancel the transactions. I was robbed for {$2300.00} dollars and am struggling with bills and about to go crazy! How can a fake company use another company as big as Cash Apps name logo and be on XXXX to steal peoples money and not be taken down from the internet?

I use Square Inc for CC processing at my businesses. They suspended the deposits to my account with no reason. They are holding {$4700.00} from my cc processing. They will not speak to me on the phone because I do not have a customer code nor will they provide me with one. I E-mail them multiple times a day and receive no response. When they have responding they send broken links. This has been going on since XX/XX/2019. I am new business and with them holding that money it caused me to take out a family loan to pay my rent at my business. This is causing me financial hardship. There is no communication or reason as to why the suspend my deposits. There was no warning either. Ive read thousands of other complaints with them and they do this to a lot of small businesses. I just want to get my deposits. I reported the to the XXXX already and the have another {$3500.00} from my other business they did the same to. This company offers no way to comminicate with them other then email and they never respond. I have emailed more then 100 times. They are stealing money with no response and it seems to be a common problem.

On XX/XX/2021 I authorized a transaction for {$250.00} via Cash App to a local person for a 70 inch TV that I was suppose to receive later that night. We have had dealings in the past so I thought I could trust him but I was wrong. On XX/XX/2021 I sent him a request via Cash App for the money back because I still did not have the TV in my possession he declined it. I also wrote him messages via XXXX asking if he had the TV or not and if not send my {$250.00} back. He never responded so I contacted my bank XXXX to dispute the charges on XX/XX/2021. I received a notice on XX/XX/2021 stating the transaction was authorized or correct and they are reversing the money back to the person for the item I never received. I called XXXX XX/XX/2021 after noticing my account was overdrawn for over {$200.00}. They informed me that they did not have the authority to get the funds for me because Cash App is a separate medium and Ill have to go through them to get my money back which is unbelievable because I disputed a {$25.00} Cash App transaction through XXXX the same day as the {$250.00} transaction. It was approved and final.

My pin was fraudulently taken and in no way did I approve these charges. The number that texted me for the scam +XXXX ( XXXX XXXX XXXX.

I signed up to use Square ON XX/XX/2021 and FULLY disclosed what I would be using square for. About two weeks after I received transactions selling my digital products and digital webinar, My account was closed with no further information other than I violated terms of service. My account should not have initially been approved if the company did not agree with what I was selling. I have not been successful in trying to reach the company and have not received any responses to my emails. I also have funds in the account that were to be transferred to my bank and those funds were never transferred as well as my account being shut down. The company has sent ONE email with very little information and I was advised that funds will be held for 120 days, I may or may not receive the funds after that time. **PLEASE NOTE : I have had NO chargebacks and no refunds. My customers are highly satisfied. This company has made kept my money during a pandemic and made it impossible to get any customer service to fix this issue. I am self employed after covid and have XXXX small children. This is devastating to my livelihood.

I then requested a refund from the wrong person I sent it to and have not yet gotten my refund. Ive been chatting with Cashapp support regarding this issue and they are asking me for information that I have given them about the person that I was suppose to send it to. I asked the person for the information I needed and have given it to cashapp support and theyre still saying that they cant verify the information Ive given to them and keep requesting the same information I gave them. They are refusing to move on with my refund request and requesting the same information I gave them.

On XX/XX/2020, Cash App, an online bank, literally stole XXXX dollars from my account and forwarded it to an unknown destination. They claim I authorized them to send the XXXX dollars to my bank account at XXXX XXXX . That is false. My bank account at XXXX XXXX had been closed in XXXX of XXXX and did not exist. I never told them to send my money anywhere and they refuse to provide any sort of authorization from me telling them to do so. This so called investigation by cash app had been going on for months when they informed me they terminated the investigation because I had authorized the transfer. I DID NOT KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT THIS TRANSFER AND HAD NO XXXX XXXX ACCOUNT AT THAT TIME. They literally stole {$800.00} dollars from my account and will not give it back. I have communicated with 10 different members of cash app and all would say they would look into it but nothing was done. The case number of that supposed investigation is : XXXX. Please help me get my money back. Thank you. This corrupt bank took advantage of a XXXX senior citizen and they need to be held accountable for their dishonest actions.

I sent a seller a total of {$680.00} ( three different payments {$300.00}, {$200.00}, {$180.00} ) for three pairs of shoes. I was in contact with her once the payments were made and she told me told me itd be two to three weeks to receive them once shipped. I waited, and decided to get back in contact with her and after multiple attempts I received no response. I went through my bank to file a dispute in an effort to get my money back, and the claim was denied and I was told to get in contact with Cashapp to receive my money back. I then got in contact with Cashapp and was told there is nothing they can do for me, to try again with my bank. After contacting my bank again regarding the same claim, they then explained to me that Cashapp will not issue a chargeback because their service was rendered. This is very frustrating because I have been given the run around looking to resolve this issue. Cashapp 's customer service is next to useless and I would like to be provided with quality customer assistance to get this resolved, its hard to walk away from {$680.00}, especially when you've been scammed out of it.

Receiving a response from CashApp representative on the online chat was very slow or none at all. Also their toll free number no one ever picks up the call ( XXXX ). Therefore, I also contacted my financial institution XXXX about their issues. XXXX retire my money back to my personal debit card account. However on XX/XX/2021 cash app is now demanding for me to pay back {$1000.00}. I was sent money thorough CashApp on XXXX 2021. CashApp have taken my money unwillingly. I am a victim of fraud through using a platform which does donot care about their Consumer 's being victim of fraud, its sneaky and pathetic how a company would prey on the innocent person over using resources to figure out the hackers who committed this offense. Now because I am just an individual I have no safety from CashApp trying to persecute me and have me help responsible for fraudulent activity on my account and people out here who are committing these crimes.

I been struggling to find a customer support to communicate more fester email take forever to reply and I havent got my questions answered by the team, they have no rights to ignore my situation. So now I need the card to be unblock it so I can use my debit card which Its not expired yet. I need to have card back on today for me to withdrawal money. Another reasons they should give us few days warnings before close the account so customers included myself will know and be prepare for next step to transfer or repairs for the accounts.

On XX/XX/2021 I transferred {$100.00} from my bank account to someone using CashApp ( a service of Square, Inc. ) The person was unable to receive the money because they had misplaced their debit card and was unable to satisfactorily establish their identity to CashApp representatives. Given the fact that the person would be unable to access the money, I made an attempt to have the money returned to my bank account. On XX/XX/2021 I spoke with CashApp call agent XXXX. He told me if the money was not accessed within 14 days, it would be automatically returned to me. When this failed to occur, I next spoke with CashApp call agent XXXX on XX/XX/2021. He told me if I enhanced the security features on my account by obtaining a CashApp Visa card, I would be able to arrange for a return of my money. On XX/XX/2021, I spoke with CashApp agent XXXX. I told her that I had applied for and received a CashApp Visa card, and was calling to arrange for the return of the money I had transferred that couldn't be accessed by the recipient. She told me that such transfers were impossible to reverse in any and all cases.

I recently had a to file a complaint with cash app because I sent money to someone but didnt receive what I supposed to. At first the person didnt respond or want to refund my money. I let Cashapp know so that something could be done and so that this wont happen to anyone else. They said they couldn't do anything about the account and I couldnt get my money back unless it was sent to me by the party. The person finally sends me a refund but they intervened for security reason. Then I was told to find a way to receive my payment outside of Cashapp which at this point there is no other way. I expressed that I have been made to jump through hoops. I've called my bank to dispute the charge but they let me know it was a slim chance they could do anything due to regulations. I emailed back and forth with Cash Apps customer service team sending every bit of information I have only to be left with no resolution. I let them know I was dissatisfied with how this situation was handled and I received an email stating my account had been closed. Now I am out of my payment of {$260.00} and no way to get it back.

I received a brand new phone last week on Wednesday ( XX/XX/15 ) and logged in via my phone to my Cash App ( The payment transfer app from Square ) using my phone number. I believe that the system locked my account because it was a new device that they did not recognize so I did not think it was a big deal so I simply submitted a support request to have them unlock my account. This was submitted on that same night. Thursday morning a customer support agent emailed me from Cash App asking me 6 different questions to unlock my account. I immediately replied to the email with all of the information that they asked for within minutes and have yet to hear back from them. All of my money ( {$4100.00} ) is in that account as they tote their direct deposit capability and encourage people to keep their money in their app and I can not transfer it to my XXXX bank account or get ahold of someone on the phone to verify that it is me so that they can unlock it. Have tried contacting them via eMail, social media and even adding their customer support representatives on XXXX but haven't received any responses.

In XX/XX/2020, cash app allowed government benefits to be loaded on to their website. They promoted the pandemic unemployment by issuing an account and routing number. I allowed my brother to use my cash app to load his benefits and I paid him cash from my bank account. Soon after, my account was hijacked and I had to watch in real times as my money was sent to my late husbands aunt, XXXX XXXX ( XXXX XXXX, on cash app ). She took {$3900.00} and {$1500.00} back to back and also ran my card numbers at the local XXXX XXXX. I sent over XXXX messages to cash app, as they didnt have a customer service number, and I havent been helped. I called her bank, XXXX XXXX and also the police. As soon as she took the money, I was submitting for a refund. Cash app could have intervened, especially in a transaction so large, but they did not. One time, someone sent me {$500.00} and cash app put a delay on it for 24 hours. Why was she able to send a {$3900.00} transaction and a {$1500.00} with no hold, no review nothing. I was hacked and have had no justice since she lives in Florida, and I live in Ohio.

XX/XX/2020 I was scammed on cash app from someone name XXXX, he constantly changes his name so he can scam more. The scammer took XXXX USD off my account. At that time I contacted cash app and the Bank by phone. The bank was able to assist by blocking the transaction immediately however my account showed XXXX USD. Cash app had said they would look into it then but nothing was done. I kept following up until cash app support saying the case close because Im out of the 72 hours window. Apparently the person I spoke with initially gave me incorrect information on resolving the issue. I have not used cash app since, however yesterday, XX/XX/XXXX, I received XXXX from a friend on cash app and it was taken off by cash app. On inquiry I was told that cash app took it to cover the negative balance. Im the victim in all this and they did not dealt with my issue from it happened, instead left it for me to repay and the scammers still having fun. I contact the support manager, XXXX, she was super nasty and condescending. She told me she can not help on the matter and tried to flip her rudeness into me.

Someone informed me that cash app would refund the money to me within XXXX days it actually says it on its app. Here we are on XX/XX/19 and I have still not gotten my money back from cash app. I have had to cancel my debit card on XX/XX/19 so that this can never happen again. there is no email to contact cash app on, no telephone number all it gives you is a customer support link which send you a pin number that takes you no where on their app. I refuse to lose {$250.00} when I followed the instructions to cancel the transaction. The money was never accepted thank XXXX so I was able to cancel it but now we are at day 9 with no refund in sight.

Cash App offers banking services, but there is no way to contact a live person ( no telephone number ) when there is fraud. I have had a bank account fraudulently opened in my name with Cash App. I received a debit card for it in the mail, but I did NOT open this account. Starting on XX/XX/XXXX, I have sent MANY email messages to Cash App, but I have only had one email back from them ( on XX/XX/XXXX which I promptly responded to ), and there has still been NO resolution to my knowledge. And it has been days since I first reached out. I have emailed back every day, and still NO further response. The person who opened my account fraudulently can be out there doing who knows what in my name! Please note that I have had other bank accounts at other banks opened fraudulently recently as well and I have been able to call a 1-800 number and get someone on the line & they have been able to close the account right away, start a fraud investigation right away, etc. Cash App should not be able to offer banking services if they are not able to provide immediate customer phone support for issues like this.

My contact info ( email and phone number ) was fraudulently changed on the Cash App provided through Square Inc on XX/XX/19, I reported it XX/XX/19 via XXXX because I had no ability to contact support without access to my account. I immediately responded on XX/XX/19 to a request for more info, but heard nothing in response. I followed up XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX, and XX/XX/XXXX. XX/XX/XXXX they responded to a follow up XXXX post, but did not address the issue saying that they " did not determine the transaction was fraudulent. '' Although, I never disputed a transaction since I have not been able to access my account and see what activity occurred. I have had no response and no resolution. I do not know if fraudulent activity had occurred on my account because I still don't have access and can't get resolution on my account. It's possible I may have received funds and the person with access may have stolen money, but the company has neglected to return control of my account to me or provide any information resolving my issue. -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- XXXX XXXX XXXX

Cash App by the company Square provides a digital wallet for USD/debit card/bit coin and stock purchase. In my account I have XXXXUSD worth of bitcoin. On XX/XX/XXXX, I upgraded my XXXX and installed the Cash App on my new phone. The old phone was returned to the XXXX XXXX. The App will not allow me to access my account. I have contacted Cash App customer service multiple times. I have receive scripted emails form 4 different representatives. None of which address my problem or seek to resolve their issue in an efficient or timely manner. Nor is there any dialogue, there is just random emails from different reps who don't familiarize themselves with the details of my account or issue. I have deleted and installed the app many times to start fresh. The app only allows me to create a NEW account. If I enter my current account username, the app will not let me proceed because the name is already taken ( obviously, by me ) ... I have been without access to my money for 7 days. I have had no response from the company that is relevant or attempts to solve my problem. This feels like fraud.

This complaint is from the CashApp app. I sent money from my account $ XXXX to the wrong recipient on Friday, XX/XX/XXXX in the amount of XXXX. Immediately, I requested a refund and a day later got a message from CashApp support that the refund was declined. Subsequent, I was told to request the money directly from the recipient XXXX XXXX but the system is not allowing me to do so. I have asked numerous times for assistance from Cashapp support to request these funds on my behalf to be returned. I have not been successful after 8 back and forth emails regarding this issue. There is not a phone number, so unable to speak to anyone. I am a cybersecurity professional and there should be other controls put in place to protect against money sent in error. I have been using CashApp for years and this is the first time this has occurred. I was told I had so many hours to request the refund, but there is only an email contact. I sent email immediately after the correct recipient advised that they did not receive it. I am disappointed with the lack of assistance or remedy provided in this case.

On XX/XX/2020, I used Cash App to pay a down payment for a puppy in the amount of {$150.00}. I have the text log communication of the whole conversation with the " owner ''. As soon as I paid the deposit, they did not respond again. I sent follow ups and a deadline to respond by before I attempted to reach out to the CASH app support to inform them someone is using their product to scam/defraud its customer base. After no response from the " owner '' once the deadline was past, I contacted CASH app support. They then told me there was nothing they " could do '' even though I have such a clear cut case of their product being used for illegal purposes. I have had to open a dispute with my card company as well as work on filing a police report in order to actually make a move to stop this type of work. It's awful to see a company allow someone to use their product in such a way and respond to someone with a variation of, " Oh well ''. It's awful to think the honest people are the ones that get hurt with an app like this, while criminals are allowed to roam free without a second glance.

My cashapp account was closed last week because of a XXXX dollar charge back of some sort.. They sent a notice saying I would not be able to use the app for anything other than cashing out my remaining funds of the total amount to {$280.00} ... The notice states I can use either the card on file which it wont let me use and is resulting in this problem or add a new one.. When I attempt to add another it gives a message saying.. You can only cash out to card ending in XXXX That card is not available I have emailed them more than about 10 times and even reached out on XXXX and have had friends reach out as well. It has now been a few days later and they say they consider the issue resolved and will no longer respond. Yet, nothing has been resolved and they are still in possession of my money.. All I need is them to allow another card or bank account be added so I can withdraw and then be done with them.. The email on file is XXXX Thank you for any help you can provide I really need this money, especially with the holiday season being here.. I know its not much but its all I have. Thank you

To whom it may concern, Square credit card processing is Currently withholding up to 30 % of all transactions for up to 120 days! They do not get permission or properly inform their customers and we are getting blind sided at the worst possible time. Who could possibly sustain their business if square holds all your profit? This is a horrible thing to do to customers. Especially during the covid-19 crisis. They already withheld over {$1200.00} from my company this week when we are just getting back to work. Please help me share what is happening and stop what this horrible company is doing to people and business. On XX/XX/XXXX they withheld nearly {$1200.00} from a {$3800.00} transaction and on XX/XX/XXXX they withheld about {$190.00} from a {$580.00} transaction. They will not release these funds until mid XX/XX/XXXX. At this rate they will destroy small businesses using their service. I have been using square since XXXX and they just recently implemented this reserve system. I never agreed to the changes and the notification letter they sent in XX/XX/XXXX ended up in my spam folder.

On Sunday XX/XX/2021 on or about XXXX XXXX I attempted to transfer {$200.00} ( XXXX XXXX dollars ) using Cash App to a friend XXXX XXXX ( XXXX XXXX ) At or about XXXX XXXX on Sunday XXXX XXXX, she still hadn't recieved the funds which was odd. So I immediately contacted Cash App to request a refund I did this because XXXX and I noticed that her Cash App tag XXXX XXXXXXXX doesn't have a capital letter XXXX " XXXX '' which is how the Cash App tool directed the {$200.00}. Also, I contacted my bank XXXX XXXX and alerted them to the problem so that I could get the funds back. Monday, XX/XX/2021 I was contacted by Cash App Customer Service and asked to provide information so that I may get a refund or redirection of funds. I have provided the requested information each day. Today, I notice that each day I have been asked to do something and I do it but, no indication of refunding my {$200.00}. It seems as I'm getting the run around and no refund. This is not right. According to the app the original transaction did not complete so it should be no problem getting my money returned to me.

I was prompted to put a code in on my phone which I did and after putting in the code I was prompted to call this number ( XXXX ) which I did. As I'm talking to who I thought was XXXX XXXX customer service they told me to download an app called XXXX and then they started controlling my phone through their phone or computer. I did put in my pin number to my XXXX XXXX but I thought I was getting XXXX XXXX XXXX. My bank account was connected to my XXXX XXXX account and they started adding money to XXXX XXXX and sending it to themselves. XXXX XXXX saying there was no unusual activity because it was from my phone but as soon as I realized what happened I reported it to XXXX XXXX and sent emails trying to stop payment. I also closed my bank accounts and opened new ones and unlinked my account from cash app which I will never do again. XXXX XXXX should be able to get my money back but they won't. I've never sent money to these people before and I've never purchased an XXXX card through XXXX before. All these are signs of fraud.

In XXXX my bank account was hacked and two {$250.00} were transferred to cash app. When I contacted my bank, they said they were holding me accountable for the fraudulent charges. When I asked why, they said that they contacted cash app and they said I had an account with them and I was the one to send the money to my cash app, which I did not. Why would I send money from my bank account to cash app? I would use cash app to send money to a person but never to cash app. I submitted a complaint to Better Business Bureau and they never responded. I also tried to contact them directly and they never responded. I checked my account and they closed it without my knowledge, consent, or a reason why. This alleged transaction cash app said I did, occurred the same day and time that my account was hacked for nearly {$500.00}. Cash app caught the transaction and returned the money.They have also added charges on to my account that I never completed. I also contacted Georgia General Attorney 's office to file a complaint and they transferred my claim to the Department of Banking and Finance.

I have received about 20 text messages from XXXX collection group telling me to pay XXXX XXXX, first {$920.00} and now {$620.00}, using their site.. Sometimes they stop a few days then start up again. It has been going on for about 2 months, yesterday is the most recent attempt. It sends a link where I can connect to and pay. A person claiming to be XXXX XXXX called me in XXXX this year telling me my sister owes him money, did not say how much. His number is XXXX. I told him my sister had a major XXXX recently but I have not seen her in over 2 years as she moved away and because of fear of Covid I do not travel. He started to bad mouth my family. This debt was paid by my sister but the text messages are still being sent to me. When I texted back, " Fraud '', the response was that they did not understand my message. I looked up the number and found that over 2000 complaints have been filed against whoever owns this number, there are a group of numbers, are similar. I am unable to block them. I want to report them, both the person who wants the money, and the " collection '' link.

We use XXXX for processing our business transactions. Our case with XXXX is CASE # XXXX Our XXXX account was breached on XXXX occasions from XXXX through XXXX - in the amount of {$35000.00}. By the time Square told us - funds were gone. XXXX blamed us for not implementing the XXXX step verification, a system of which they turned off and subsequently turned back on after this occurrence. My wife and I traveled during the holiday. When we returned we immediately contacted Square. Nobody helped us - nobody investigated - nobody at XXXX did anything. Only sorry - {$35000.00} is gone. 1 ) is XXXX insured for this? 2 ) is XXXX going after these funds and then keeping them without my consent XXXX ) they were transferred to XXXX XXXX accounts - did XXXX tell XXXX None of the above were allowed to be discussed with XXXX - only sorry there is nobody to take this up with. This is not right. We had to file today against Square with XXXX, IC3.gov, Identitytheft.gov and will be meeting with our legal counsel next week - all based on Squares horrible decision and them doing nothing.

I used the Cash App to have someone send me funds. I went to deposit the funds into my bank out of Cash App. I check my bank account on the day that the funds were meant to be deposited into and they were not there. I then reviewed the transaction on the Cash App and saw that the direct deposit was set for a bank routing number I had never heard of. I looked up the routing number of the bank and it appears that it is the bank that Cash App runs all of its transactions through. I am unable to see the full account number that the money was transferred to. Cash App has no direct customer service. No phone number that they currently have listed gives you any information, they only have messages about things that are not what they state on their website. There is only a limited way to send in a complaint on their site ; you have to hunt through their menu to even find a form. This was clearly a mistake and it seems clear that Cash App put in a placeholder direct deposit account that went to their own bank. I have no idea why they would do this, why wouldn't they just leave it blank?

Beginning in XXXX, my XXXX used Square for all credit and debit card processing. However, at the end of XXXX and the beginning of XXXX, we noticed an error. The money that we were collecting via Square did not match what was being deposited into my XXXX account. After contacting Square, they launched an internal audit. After several weeks, Square contacted us and said that we were owed north of {$40000.00} from XXXX. They stated that I had two accounts with them and some of the money was hitting by checking account and the rest stayed in their system and was never deposited. After this discussion, we were promised that we would be mailed a card with the funds on the card. However, we never received that card. The two points of contact from Square stopped responding to emails in XX/XX/XXXX. We have not heard from them since that time. In addition, Square reported the wrong information to the IRS. The 1099s that Square sent to the IRS were for the amounts we should have received, not what we actually received. Therefore, I now owe back taxes on money that I never received.

Square Customer service agents do not understand enough English to properly process a a simple disputed merchant charge on the card. My original filed written dispute clearly states the following : Merchant Name : XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX Order Number : - XXXX Transaction Date : XX/XX/2021 Transaction Amount : {$19.00} Reason for dispute : Received Defective Product Square 's first customer service agent just cut and pasted in their response were the agent requested that exact information again, which means their agents are either not reading or not understanding simple straightforward English. Then, the second agent, thought the complaint was for a product that was not received yet, so cut and pasted in a request for all of the shipping information and so on, again indicating their agents are either not reading or not understanding simple straightforward English, because a defective product by definition means the product was received. This type of horrible customer service should not be allowed, because it makes filing a debit or credit card dispute extremely difficult.

I moved away from my old address in XX/XX/XXXX and never cared to do a address change. On XXXX I wrote out a check to a friend and watched him deposited the check. Somehow the check landed in my account but also bounced from insufficient funds but was also told that the check cleared. Then when I address the banker that helped me out most the time he altered the transactions not knowing that I already have statements of it printed out and made slot of copies. This caused me to did into other activities and transactions which now I discovered involved all of my banks and accounts. No matter what I do ( change email, phone, phone number ) it doesnt matter. It will be compromised at will and if the bank can alter the transaction to a transaction I made a week ago that just got posted. How can I not recognize it to dispute it. Im limited with sources to help and no attorney is willing to take my case. Im asked to go into mediation but this involves more then just the bank that request me to mediation. It involves everything account associated with my social security number.

I filed a complaint about a company called CashApp, Square , Inc. Complaint number : XXXX. As a result of my complaint the company retaliated against me and blocked my account. But I still have money on deposit with them in a stock trading account. Because they blocked my account today, I lost a lot of money because I could not sell stock that was losing value. The company simply ignored my original complaint. They claimed that they do not guarantee that a trade order will be canceled when requested. They also admitted that trade orders made after trading hours are executed when the market opens, but they do not mention anything about why they did not execute the order when the market opened. The company now seems to be retaliating against me for filing my complaint, they have blocked my account so that I was not able to make any trades at all today and my account lost value again. You can see from the timestamp that the account was XXXX during the trading day. There were no reported issues with the site. Also, a friend logged on and confirmed that he had no issues.

I keep receiving unauthorized VISA cards from Square. I sent an email to the company asking to stop all mailings and another card was received last night. I am concerned about the safety of my account so I removed my bank information from their app. The mailings are clearly marked that they are coming from Square and are clear that there is a card inside. Can issuers send cards without customers permission? All of the issuers that I do business with send replacement cards in non-marked envelopes so it is not obvious there is a card inside. Since Square ( cash app ) accesses my bank account -- this is very concerning and a poor practice. Each of the five plastics I have received at this point have had gibberish imprinted on the front of the card ( $ grdhfgjfgjfhkhk ), my full name, VISA number they issued ( bin XXXX ), exp and CVV. On the flimsy paper it is stuck to there is a QR code to activate. Paperwork is extremely minimal- no terms and conditions. This practice needs to stop -- and this company needs to stop mailing VISA cards that were not authorized to my home.

XX/XX/2019 I called cash app to this customer service number : XXXX because I sent money to the wrong person ( {$20.00} ) so I was trying to get that money back, when I called them they asked me to download an app ( viewer quick support ) through that app he ( XXXX ) got into my cellphone. Once he got into it ( my phone ) he asked me to verify my account by taking pictures of my id, debit card and my face. Then he said that " he was going to send me the {$20.00} that I had sent to the wrong person in order to end the verification process '' He ended up sending me {$200.00} accidently instead of the {$20.00} and it " failed ''. So he asked me to go to the store and buy a XXXX gift car of {$200.00} and give him the code in the back which I did and as soon I gave him the code he hung up the phone and when I tried calling back claiming to him, he kept hanging the phone up. I went to my best friends house so she could try calling for me since het english is better than mine. They ended up saying a lot of profanities. I still have the ebay card and the receipt just in case.

Cash App Reference Number : ref : XXXX : ref I am unable to access my Cash App account after purchasing a new phone and installing app. Starting on or about XX/XX/2021 up to and including XX/XX/2021 I have communicated to Cash App through the support function on website, had email communication with XXXXXXXX XXXX and XXXX, and with the social media team through the Message option on XXXX. In each case they provide instructions on how to access account and trouble shooting advice if I am unable to log in following the instructions provided. In each case I have followed the instructions given and submitted the requested account information. The Cash App Team seems unable or unwilling to look into the problem and provide a solution beyond instructing me how to sign into app and repeatedly asking for the same information over and over again. When a company has your funds, no matter how little, and access to a linked checking account their should be a sense of urgency to allowing customers to have access to their money. Attached is pop up I receive when trying to log in.

On XX/XX/19 I email Cash App support to tell them that I paid {$40.00} for a vendor event and the person didn't provide me documents /location that was needed to attend. I asked them to refund my money or I will have to file a dispute with my bank. Cash App replied back and told me that that was the best thing to do in order to get my funds back and they will listed the merchandise as a fraudulent activities. Meanwhile, they included information for me to submit to them concerning the merchandise and I didn't do it because I thought email them the email conversation between her and I was okay. Meanwhile, days later my account was deactived. A few days later I reopen another account under my business name because I knew I had to have funds coming in from clients. They instantly told me that my account is closed and for me to transferred the funds into my banking account. When I tried to do so I was unable to transfer the funds, update new credit card or refund the person ( s ). I have email them at least 4 times a day concerning this matter. No reply from a human.

On XX/XX/XXXX, I purchased equipment from someone via Cash app for {$100.00}. After a while I suspected that I was being scammed and in my attempts to reach out to the merchant I was then blocked from getting in contact with them. Therefore causing me to believe that he didnt even have intentions of shipping the item to begin with. On XX/XX/XXXX, I filed a claim for such dispute and was guided to go about doing so through the XXXX XXXX XXXX app. After doing so on XX/XX/XXXX, I received a confirmation email from XXXX XXXX XXXX claiming that they have already gone about disputing such transaction with the merchants bank and that I will not have to do anything on my end. Then on XX/XX/XXXX, I received an email now claiming that since Cashapp is a third party application they can do nothing on their side at this point, resulting in a chargeback on my account of - {$100.00}. As of now I am stuck in the negatives and even with my countless efforts to reach out to Cashapp and XXXX XXXX XXXX, all I receive is a constant runaround and it is completely unfair on my end.

This is about Cash App company, On Tuesday XX/XX/XXXX, someone hacked into my account and fraudulently stole {$180.00} from my Cash App. Immediately, same day, I notified Cash App Support and they told me they were looking into it. They requested I sent them some information which I did A day after, they came back to me asking for same information. I did send those again. 2 days later they came back asking for same information I'd already sent to them twice. And they claim they were not able to locate my account. When I went online to find a way to resolve this issue, I came across a website called XXXX - and the reviews left by other consumers regarding their experiences with Cash App were totally upsetting ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ). I came into conclusion that this company does not have the interest of consumers at XXXX, and they appear to deliberately support fraudsters using their platform. Please can you help? I need them to return the money stole from my account. I will be so glad if you can help or point me in the right direction. Thank you so much

I am a XXXX XXXX XXXX. I have customers who use CashApp to send payments for products. Cash app advertises a way to send and receive money from friends and family. They have closed my account leaving me no way of getting the money my customers have sent me. I have tried all the ways to get my funds. The Cashapp will not accept any debit cards as it states it should or bank account. I have tried to contact via the phone number they have listed online with no luck. I have called square who owns cashapp and have been told they can not help me. They only give out the phone number that is automated and states there is not a representative to speak to. When you try to get support online this is what happens. Sign in and it says they have to email you a pin. Then when you get the email and put in the pin you get a message that you will get an email with a link to sign in. There is no additional email to login. There is no way of contacting anyone to discuss how to get the funds. They are fraudulently scamming people to use their services in order to keep the funds.

I received a " Cash.app '' card in the mail, totally unsolicited by me. The card came complete with an Account Number, expiration date, security code and my name. I have been unable to verify how to cancel this card with " Cash.app '' or with their parent company " Square , Inc ''. Their help # is XXXX, but has no customer service people to help. They point you to their website " Cash.app/help '' which is mainly for activation, adding money, etc. I have contacted the FTC and submitted an " Identity Theft Report ''. Shortly after receiving this card, I received an " XXXX XXXX Personal Savings '' new account information card listing a full account # for a " High Yield Savings Account '' which I had not requested. In the same mail was a letter from " XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX '' in XXXX XXXX XXXX, UT stating that an account had been opened in my name and they believed it was opened without my authorization, thus closing the account. They then went on stating the applicant had access to my name, address and SSA. I have filed an " Identity Theft Case '' with the FTC.

On XX/XX/2020, I received a message from an acquaintance that they received a CashApp request for {$100.00} from me. I do not have this person 's CashApp information nor would I ever request money from them. They then sent me a screenshot of the account information and the profile picture is a picture of me but, the CashApp name is different from the one I use. I do not have any access to the account they showed me nor did I create it. I contacted CashApp the next day and then again on XX/XX/2020 in an attempt to report and close the fraudulent account. Not only did they refuse to do so but, they claimed they could not provide me any information regarding the account. They wouldn't even so much as look into the matter for me to verify that it was legitimate. I then sent a dispute letter via IdentityTheft.gov 53 days ago from today and have yet to hear back from them. I really want this resolved and do not know what else to do at this point. CashApp has no Customer Service or proper process for handling such matters. They do not even appear to care at all.

On XX/XX/18, i applied and was approved for a Cash app prepaid card. Since i am XXXX i do not have a steady income or bank account to receive, transfer funds. My wife and son who both have Cash app felt this would be a good option for me so whenever i need money they can transfer From their accounts to my cash app card. I had no issues whatsoever, until a few days when my son tried to send me XXXX XXXX for dinner. He let reviving a message stating the transaction failed. At this point i had already had XXXX XXXX in my account from transactions from my wife. I emailed cash app who said due to fraudulent activity my card was closed. I am beyond angry as i did nothing wrong. My son and wife both work and anything sent to me or transferred was monies from their account ya only. The strange thing is their accounts are still open so where was the fraud. I sent a message to XXXX today and received another email with no explanation but that my account is closed. I have XXXX XXXXs int he account and i would like my money either sent back to my wife or to myself.

On XX/XX/XXXX I was unable to receive funds from my family using Cash App. I contacted Cash App they claimed I needed to verify my identity, mind you I had the Cash App for months already and used with no problems. They sent me a link instructing me to send my DL front and back and including a picture of me holding my license ( odd? ), but I did it. They told me it would take 10 days. I've verified with my other " cash app '' types, it took 1 - 3 days. I contacted Cash App XX/XX/XXXX talking to 2 reps at the same time. 1 via the cash app app, 1 via XXXX cash app. 1 rep continued to say they're working on it, while the other said I have to send my license again ( talking to them at the same time ). I feel I am being toyed with and I don't want to send it again and why wouldn't they both say that if that's the case. 1. I'm worried of where I sent my information to, 2 still unable to use the Cash App app, 3 someone is lying and playing games. My Case # XXXX Here 's the link they had me send my credentials to. https : XXXX. Please check the link validity.

On or about XXXX XXXX, 2020, XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX transferred a total of {$610.00} to CashApp for transfer to me. They received confirmation that the money was taken from their accounts. None of the money has ever reached me. After trying unsuccessfully to reach CashApp by phone ( none is listed ) or email, I wrote a letter to them on XXXX XXXX, 2020, to the attention of Customer Support. I heard nothing back. I followed up with another letter on XX/XX/XXXX addressed to the Chief Financial Officer, certified mail, with copies to the CashApp lead, the General Counsel and the Chief Executive Officer. Again, I have heard nothing from them. I have copies of the correspondence to them in my files. I have not even received an acknowledgement that they are looking into the matter. It is now more than six months without the funds. I am suspicious that I am not the only person to be affected. One of my letters asked them if I was wrong about being owed the money, but no response was forthcoming. I would like them to pay over to me the {$610.00} that is due.

On XX/XX/21 I had {$520.00} sent to my cash app account I went to go remove the money and it was declined. And since this date I have been contacting cash app support at least 3 times a week to get help and NO ONE will help me. I have been hung up on agent and Supervisors. I have been promised call backs about this issue and promised emails back. BUT NOTHING IS BEING DONE. I received an email back on XX/XX/21 saying that this was for my protection and that it was resolved and to continue to use my card, BUT IT WAS NOT! My money is still sitting in this cash app account and no one at cash app will tell me what is going on or why this happened or anything they just pretty much took my money and will not help AT ALL!! I understand this was done for my protection but now I have verified everything and now I havent done ANYTHING WRONG EXCEPT FOR TRUSTING IN A COMPANY LIKE CASH APP NOT TO STEAL MY MONEY!! I keep getting emails saying rate your experience which I do reply to saying what experience I was told I would get a call back or email back but never did.

Well I didnt find out untilXX/XX/2020 that it was direct deposited on that day. Well on that same day my wallet was stolen. I dont even know if my money is being Used or not? I contacted Cash App to try and close the account until further notice. I was told not to close the account cause I can loose the money. I provided the credentials SO many times they kept saying they couldnt find me. Then all of a sudden Cash App said Theyll merge my accounts. So when they asked if I had a bank card attached I said no you because Cash App is my Bank card. There were emails sent back and forth and still nothing. I am a single mother. I have little funds. Covid has a effected my XXXX to attend daycare and Im with out a job. I know I have my funds and where they are at. But no one wants to help me. No one seems to even care. If I dont have money.

On Friday, XX/XX/2020 {$460.00} was deducted from my checking account. The line on my statement said Cash App, parent company Square. I do not have CashApp. I notified my bank on Thursday, XX/XX/2020 that I saw a pending transaction for release on XX/XX/2020 that same day my bank fraud department stated that via this CashApp they tried to deduct after the {$460.00} was approved they tried for {$1400.00}, {$1000.00}, {$750.00} then {$500.00} each time getting lower. Since the charges were coming from California and were according to the Bank Fraud Representative `` XXXX XXXX type of things '' they declined the charges. CashApp and Square have no email address, no contact phone numbers. You have to have their App and card to receive support. I informed my bank who provisionally returned my stolen money until their investigation is over. Today, Saturday, XX/XX/2020 a CashApp card shows up. I tried getting on to their site, I put in my email address - no email address exists for them. I put in my cell phone number - no phone number exists for them.

On XX/XX/2019 I was in the process with a wire transfer {$75.00} via the CashApp, the app allows you to send money to a person in your contact either by phone number, name, or the profile name created. My friends profile did not populate but another person did who is not in my profile, and the funds was captured by a person with a profile name " XXXX '' This is not my friend and upon the funds being captured I sent this person a message to decline this money transfer, I emailed the Cashapp and they advised once the money has transferred even if I didn't authorize it, they can not refund me back and I will have to reach out to my bank. I spoke with my bank they cancelled my card and a full dispute. However Cashapp petitioned my dispute stating that I authorized it therefore my bank which is XXXXt XXXX XXXX re-couped my {$75.00} from my account. My bank gave me the phone number of the person who captured my money and this person I do not know. The phone number does not exist in my phone and I did attempt to call the number and it has got un-answered.

I sent {$300.00} sent on XX/XX/20 to someone who changed her phone number and no longer using the account $ XXXX which is where the money went to. However, since her number was changed, she no longer had access to this account and was unable to cancel, or refund the money 's sent. The response I'm getting from the company " Cashapp by Square '' is that they're unable to cancel or refund any transactions that were complete. Problem is, the funds were never accepted, or completed by her because she didn't have access to the account, the phone number associated with it, or the phone. If the transaction hasn't been completed, they should be able to reverse it. I explained to the reps that the transaction was never completed on the other end and cancelled on my end, but they're refusing to assist me with recovering my funds that's just sitting there which has been drafted from my account. I continue to advise that the person receiving the funds was unable to accept and complete the transfer because she had no access to the phone, or account any longer.

But unfortunately they hacked my account by taking my name, phone number and the device am using to access XXXX and {$1200.00} was stolen through XXXX XXXX. I called XXXX but XXXX says they can not accept my claim because my phone was used on XX/XX/XXXX to access XXXX so they have no evidence that I didnt authorized those transactions. I have explain to them several times that I didnt authorized any payment and my phone was hacked because they people ask me what phone am using, and I didnt know anything so I told them the device. But XXXX still dont want to help me trace my money. At this point I know they wont help. They are aware that people are using their app to scam people in the app but they have ignored and dont do anything about it. I need help getting my money back because I didnt authorized any transaction and dont know these people. Thank you.

There were 2 different sites that made several withdrawals each on my account, XXXX XXXX XXXX and the other was XXXX. I was informed when I filed the dispute that I would receive an update within 10 business days. I spoke with customer support through the app to find out if there were any updates on a couple of different days. This is the only way you can communicate with cashapp. I have asked for a phone number or email to someone that can help me however I get the same response from all reps, " your case has been escalated " which must not mean anything. Today is XX/XX/21 and XX/XX/21 was the 10th business day and still I have not received any updates from cashapp ( Square Inc. ) When I went to support in the app I received the same response as any other time. Its been escalated. I very much appreciate any help you can offer me. My family and myself desperately need our money returned asap. Thank you

On XX/XX/XXXX I sent my mother T-shirt dollars thru the cash app account. She never received it. On Friday I attempted to resolve the issue with cash app. I called them and they attempted some trouble shooting technique that didnt work and told me that they needed me to transfer XXXX dollars to my cash app account so they could verify my transactions and they would give me the place the funds back into my scoping once they were able to verify the transaction. I refused and he said he would need to gain remote access to my phone through quick support app. That didnt work so he ask me to go and purchase a XXXX dollar XXXX XXXX card an give him the code off the back. He stated once he was able to verify it he would refund the XXXX dollars for the XXXX XXXX card and the original XXXX dollars. When he came back on the phone he stated the he would not be to verify the transaction with the XXXX dollar XXXX XXXX card and I would need to purchase another card with a XXXX dollars on it. I refused and he said there would be nothing else he could do

I have tried to reach out to cash app support regarding several dispute matters at this point they have an unusually long time to process refunds up to 10 business days. I am not understanding how a transaction can immediately show as refunded but the funds wont be available for ten days. More recently I am having an issue with XXXX transactions on my account that XXXX is claiming they cant even locate on my account. CashApp is putting an undue burden on me to dispute the transaction of asking me to provide a receipt or letter showing XXXX cancelling the charge. When I explained to CashApp support this was unreasonable and in no way possible because as I stated before XXXX is claiming they have no record of any of the charges to my account CashApp support failed to resolve the matter and even refuse to cancel the duplicate charge from XXXX. They are refusing to process any disputes and I have over a XXXX dollars stuck as charges or in limbo from CashApp 's negligence and unwillingness to follow the FCRA and allow me to file a dispute.

I signed up for a Cash App account using a referral offer from my friend. The offer states that I must be : 1 ) Be new to Cash App with no previous accounts 2 ) Enter their invite code correctly within 7 days of sending/receiving their first payment 3 ) Link a personal debit card not associated with another Cash App account. People under XXXX can activate a Cash Card instead 4 ) Send {$5.00} or more, either as a single payment or multiple smaller payments, within 14 days of entering the invite code I have never had a Cash App account before, and did all of the other steps, but the referral bonus was automatically denied. I reached out for help and both reps that I spoke two simply stated that I did not qualify. I asked which condition I did not meet, to which they replied that they did not have access " for security '' to know which condition I did not meet but that I did not meet it. In short, they set up a set of conditions to get this bonus, opaquely deny it, and then when pressed for a rationale, said that they can't tell me.

This event started began when I attempted to transfer money from my cash app account to my bank account. As near as i can figure my account was hacked and this transaction was taken over by a 3rd party who interfered with it and sent me through a number of money transfers that they said was necessary to verify my identity. The amount to be transferred was XXXX, however the documents that will be attached to this complaint will show that there were many transfers that left with XXXX that was not put back into my account. The event began on Friday the XXXX of XXXX and went on over the weekend until the XXXX of XXXX when my suspicions were verified when I discovered CFPB website that described an incident very similar to mine with Cash app and a subsidiary of Square Inc . I also have text messages from the two people who were a part of this " scam " XXXX and XXXX that outline their involvement with these transactions. I attempted to contact Square inc from the app for support but did not hear back from them until several days later.

I received a Cash App debit card in the mail on XX/XX/XXXX. I knew that it was a case of identity theft because I never opened a Cash App account and I have had two other accounts opened in my name recently. In both of those cases I was able to easily contact the company and have the account closed. I attempted to contact Cash App, but I quickly discovered that they do not have a phone number. All websites that I found directed me to contact Customer Service through the Cash App itself. Of course I do not have a Cash App account, so this was useless. I emailed Square to alert them to the fraudulent account and ask them to shut it down. I received a form email back on XX/XX/XXXX, telling me ( once again ) that I need to contact Cash App Support directly from the Cash App. It did not address my concerns or the substance of the email. I have not received a response to my subsequent email. In short, there is a fraudulent Cash App open under my name and Square offers no way to get in contact with Customer Service to resolve the issue.

I have been trying to get into an old cash app acount of mine. I no longer have access to tge email or phone number linked to the account so i reached out to customer support now for weeks and i continue to get the same answer which is and i quote, for securiry reasons we can not give you access to this account. I have the cashcard, i have sent a copy of my drivers license, gave them addresses, my social, dob and everything but still thats the answer i get. To make the matter even worse the last 2 stimulus checks have been deposited into said account and i cant even touch it now so tgese people have rougly XXXX dollars of my money and will not let me have access to it. The reason i no longer have access to the email or number linked to the account is due to the fact that i was in a very violent relationship where i was almost XXXX and he changed all my passwords to everything. He is finally in prison so i dont have to hide anymore and tgis account is the most important account i need due to tge fact of all the money thats in it

Ive got my money stolen from me from my cash app because this person watched me put in my pin. This person is named XXXX XXXX $ XXXX is her Cashtag.She stolen {$220.00} and i didnt authorize this payment on XX/XX/2020 Although i did pay her {$25.00}, this person watched me put in my pin and waited until i was away from my phone to access my account from my phone and sent herself $ XXXX.I didn't notice this until later when this person had left the premises. I did not authorize this and I've brought this to the attention of cash app support with no real results. As a customer. I'm totally aware of the cash I send and receive and would label it as a mistake if that were the case. This was a person who stole from me and I requested a 'Right to refund from square. I don't feel like support is understanding that i dont make a lot of transactions so i know exactly what goes in or out. I have to record this for business purposes. I can not afford to send anyone large amounts of money without a label in the subject line. Thank you

I sent my rent payment of {$100.00} through CashApp. Landlord accepted payment but had never used the program before and did not intend to create an account. He wanted payment some other way. I sent a refund request, which he denied because he did not understand the app. He told me to send another refund request. CashApp prevents that. So I sent a payment request for the same amount. When he tried to process that through the app, he was prompted to enter his social security number, which he did not want to do because he did not want to create an account. CashApp FAQs and their customer service rep on the phone said that the landlord does not need to put in a social security number to send the funds back to me. I reached out to CashApp to see if they could manually reset the refund request ( so that I could send it again ) or refund my money themselves. They said that because the landlord accepted the payment, they will do nothing, despite the fact that the landlord does not have an account and has no intentions of creating one.

About 4 weeks ago I received a Cash App Card in the mail. I assumed it was a scam of some sort as I hadn't heard of the company. The card has my name and address on it. I looked them up to realize they are a legit company. I attempted to contact them but there is no direct contact information on their site or via the app. It showed they are a Square Inc product so I made contact with Square and received no responses or resolution. I downloaded the Cash App to try and sign in using the information I received. The card provides a unique cash tag of $ XXXX and by inputting this to gain access to the account the app responded that in order to receive support, I had to have access to the email address associated with my account XXXX ( it doesn't display the full address ) which I have no knowledge of or access to. From their website it shows that my name, address and ss # are required in order to get the card I received in the mail. Clearly a fraudulent account has been opened in my name and they provide no way to get this handled.

My friend XXXX sent me {$400.00} through CashApp on XX/XX/20. He was supposed to send me the money through XXXX by he thought I had CashApp Account. I don't recall when I opened my cashapp account but I downloaded the app again and the money was there. I tried to transfer the money to my XXXX XXXX Account but there was an error and I couldn't do that. I lost my phone a couple of weeks ago and I had to download the app again. Since then I have been trying to access my account and it doesn't allow me to. I contacted CashApp through emails and they requested me my personal information to allow me to access my account. I have informed my address, email, phone number and debit card numbers ( I had to go to the bank to get all the debit cards I had to see if the info would match ). But they keep telling that information is invalid and NOTHING can be done. I asked if they need my documents to prove that's me or maybe send the money back to my friend XXXX but they said NO. Please help me to get this money back. I really need my money.

He decided to call the cashapp customer service number from the app.i received couple of calls later stating that my husband was on the cash app line and the needed to verify some information from me.i was asked to download some consumer support app on my phone where they can see all the transactions and also check my XXXX XXXX account to see if the money was in.i was spun around the bank app and was led to send out the XXXX .they give me their manager email XXXX on XXXX .they said they were trying to see why my account kept rejecting his payment. When I asked if the money was going to be refunded on his card that's where all the problems started. I was even told I should go to a XXXX and i asked to do what there? All the cash app customer service numbers we searched on XXXX is owned by XXXX scamers.ever person we spoke too was telling us the same thing to download the app on XXXX or XXXX XXXX and later go to a store.

Someone sent me money on cashapp. When I tried to send the money to my bank account. I was told by cash app that they dont support that bank account ( XXXX business ). So I changed it to my XXXX XXXX. I tried to send the money there. I was promoted by the app to enter a XXXX Pin. I never created a pin. I was never given a pin. I tried using the pin for the XXXX XXXX account. I friend ever 4 digit number I could think of. None of them worked. I tried to use the app to change the cash pin but it asks me for the old cash pin. Which I dont have. I contacted customer support through this process. I received an email from XXXX, XXXX, XXXX XXXX and XXXX. All from the same email address. XXXX Ive told them all the same information. And no one has helped. They cant reset my account. They cant give me a pin. Theres no way to speak with a human. Theres no way to close the account and have the money mailed in a check. Were in a pandemic and I need my money. The amount is {$250.00}. Ive emailed. Ive tweeted. I dont know what else to do.

I am a small business owner who often would receive payments through cash app. On XX/XX/XXXX after rendering services to a client, I gave her my cash app details for payment, she tells me the cash tag i had given her was invalid. I was in awe and told her that wasn't accurate. I quickly went on my cash app to log in but was asked for all my personal information which I put in and the system created me a new account. My account balance of {$500.00} was swooped and I have nothing. I reached out yo support and they are telling me that I can not gain access to my old account due to security reasons. I emailed back asking for my money that I had in my account, I truly don't care too much for the old account, I just want my {$500.00} but no one i spoke to was able to tell me what is going on. That is the last money I've got in the entire world and cash app has stolen it and can not even tell me why. I would keep talking about this till the right person hears it. How can I survive this? I feel like I am living my worst nightmare.

XXXX dollars was taken from my account on a promise that goods will be delivered ... and those goods were never actually delivered. Hence I was engaged in fraudulent purchases I've tried to request a refund which has not been answered and I reached out to cashapp support so that they may help me and have not reached a conclusion. This person has has taken money from my account freely and has no intention of giving that money back. I was unaware that I was not protected from cashapp and would like to gain my money back and even help cash app identify these scammers using any information that I can give them. It was first a payment of XXXX dollars and then a payment of XXXX dollars. I feel foolish for trusting in the person, but I have proof that the person did not promise on any of the goods and has stopped all contact with me Please be aware of cashapp and theyre lack of customer service- it'll be a fight to get a chargeback from your bank. Currently in that fight and hope to get this resolved as quickly as I possibly can

I started Processing payment with square and square decided to deactivate my account without telling me when I'll be able to withdraw my funds after I sent the documents they asked for. I will never use square again because the people who got my service took the money back and square couldn't protect me in the charge back process, all they did was to refund and rule in the customer favour. Well, I have over {$2000.00} in my square account which square has taken the money because they don't allow me to withdraw it and they can't tell me when I'll have access to it. I've tried to resolve this with the company by emailing them but all efforts proved abortive. I want to company to tell me exactly when I'll withdraw my funds as I've read thousands of negative feedbacks from people who used square to process payment used square to proce

I used the app called Cash App ( owned by Square inc ) I opened it years ago and it fell to the wayside, but I had purchased digital currency. I recently was reminded about the account which is tied to my email still, I went to gain access to my account and while the email code to verify my identity was successful, my banking information was incorrect as I no longer banked with XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX nor was my phone number correct because years had passed and I no longer had that phone number to get a pass code, I reached out to the cashapo support and since they don't have a phone support I had an email ticket and kept being round Robin to numerous support specialist who kept asking me the same thing over and over again and ultimately they wouldn't give me access to my old account even though I could verify other bits of PII that would verify who I am. This is highly frustrating and this company has a reputation today of being difficult but I feel that they have a way to verify who I am and let me access my old account

I can not login to my Cash App account to withdraw funds or access any documents. There is approximately {$700.00} in the account, and I was also informed that I have a Tax Document waiting for me ( " paperless delivery '' ). When I try to login, I get an error that I've " changed my $ Cashtag too many times '' and am told to " Contact Support ''. I first contacted support at least two months ago to try to resolve this issue XXXX received first response XX/XX/XXXX ). I keep getting generic, canned responses which do not resolve the issue. I have been contacted by at least six ( 6 ) different support representatives. One will contact me requesting information, I will provide that information, then wait a day or two, and a new representative will reach out and ask for the same information. Repeat. I've also tried telephone support, but they were unable to provide any help. They are holding my funds without reasonable access, and, more urgently, I am in need of my tax document so I can prepare my XXXX Tax Returns.

My Visa debit card was lost and some unauthorized transactions where made after the card was lost. I logged into the app and noticed these unauthorized transactions. I immediately contacted customer service. There was no customer support phone number. My only method of communication was the chat/message feature in the CashApp. I informed and requested disputes to be filed with CashApp for the unauthorized transactions two weeks ago ( more than 10 business days ). I also declared my card lost/stolen within the CashApp to cease further unauthorized transactions and request a new debit card be mailed to me. I have followed up several times since with the CashApp chat regarding my disputes. I continue to receive responses that are not addressing my concern. Purposely avoiding my requests and dodging providing answers or solutions with such tactics as multiple responses of asking me for my email address ect. There are regulations that protect consumers and obviously my card was stolen. Nobody at CashApp is helping me

I discovered fraudulent account access in XXXX and reported the first two related unauthorized charges I noted to Cash APP XX/XX/XXXX. As they routinely do, cash app has failed to comply with their obligations under regulations XXXX & XXXX and have thusly failed to issue any provisional credit or request an extension to investigate further as required by law. This has happened before. Often I believe they will close accounts or reverse a different credit so as to avoid their obligations under the regulations by sending the account into the negative so they do not have to pay out any funds lost due to fraudulent EFTs. In my case I have noticed fraud somewhere between XXXX and XXXX dollars, and cash app continues to just tell me is being Looked at without any issuance of provisional credit even after two weeks. I want the CFPB to look at the systemic non-compliance shown in the handling of disputed transactions or errors and unauthorized payments by cash app and other similar services such as XXXX XXXX XXXX.

I am trying to merge my old cash app with my new one so that I can access funds that were sent to my old cash app account I no longer have the phone number attached. I performed all of the steps that was listed under the cash app support options and still got no results. I called the XXXX number listed online for cash app and could not get a live operator on the phone and the automated system was very unhelpful. I also sent an email regarding this matter yesterday and was told that someone would get back to me a soon as possible but it has been 24 hours and no one has responded. My stimulus check was deposited into my cash app and I can not retrieve my funds that I desperately need access to and can not do so until Cash App can merge my account with my new one. Please fix this matter ASAP because it is a major inconvenience to me and my livelihood right now creating too much anxiety for me. You would think that they would have a more professional less stressful way of providing services to their customers.

Recently cashapp decided to randomly close my account claiming i violated the terms and conditions and when i asked support how i did so they just refused to give me a response and said they practice their right to keep this information closed. I had over 5k in my account when they decided to close it and they instructed me to simply add a new debit card or bank to cash out my remaining funds mind you the previous card i had on it was taken off because i lost it. The app wont allow me to add any sort of new banking information and Ive sent countless emails to support for days on end with no response to help me with this problem but support replied to my email regarding my closed account immediately to tell me to go XXXX myself. This company and their support are a joke and dont care about the consumer or how much money they could possibly lose. Im almost certain they closed it due to a large deposit made into my account that was from my unemployment and now i cant use any of the money that was given to me.

Square ( Cash APP ) Financial company will not allow access to my account which has {$450.00} held in the account established since 2020. I contacted the Support Chat for assistance that provided steps to access the account. I was unable to take the steps because I had no access, so the case was elevated and I was provided a $ XXXX, Ref # XXXX number. I provided all the pertinent information on the account to identify myself and others users on the account. After 3 weeks and 4 different CASH Support representative, a decision was made that could not be overridden. I asked was there a Fraud and Security Dept and they responded with the same comment. I ask for lead supervisor and they would not refer one to me. I ask about the balance in my account and it was stated that it was nothing they could or tell me. They stated there was nothing that could be done. I contacted the XXXX and saw over 4,000 complaints. I decided to file a complaint with CFPB. Attached are the email strand of discussion with CASH APP.

XXXX XXXX and square business debit card failed to investigate my unauthorized charges before denying my dispute. A hacker accessed my card and pin. And because a pin was used. XXXX XXXX refuse my dispute. Without properly investigating. Because if they did. It was not me who walked in that store and picked up pizza all the time. I first learned of the fraud on XXXX. Filed disputes. But also. My square business debit card was hacked 2 days after activating my square business debit card. I feel like ive been embezzled from for the last year and a half. People need to know square business debit cards are not secure. Because I opened that card. My business has had XXXX dollars stolen from it. And XXXX XXXX wont investigate these charges properly. Or call me back. I was never there. They have surveillance to track this person. Two big corporations. Allowing the taking from a tiny business. Because I opened a square business debit card for my business I got thousands stolen from me. Small amounts over time.

XXXX, Cash App, and Square XXXX are all money transfer applications that I have never used before in my entire life. These companies authorized fraudulent transactions to go through without even allowing me to give them permission. These charges began to appear randomly on my bank statements totaling XXXX XXXX dollars, which is a federal crime. These transactions began on XX/XX/2018 and finally stopped after I constantly complained to my bank trying to prove it was not me. They started with small amounts and escalated very quickly. They varied anywhere from {$50.00} to {$3000.00}. XXXX XXXX, my bank, did not let me know of any of these transactions which is strange because they always notify me of even the smallest transactions I personally make. They also did not do a full 10 day investigation because they considered it too unusual. I was forced to start calling the vendors myself, but have failed in being able to reach XXXX, Cash App, and Square XXXX. These companies have committed a federal crime.

I sent money using cash app to a PHONE NUMBER XXXX cash app sent it to some random $ cashtag they decided on ' XXXX XXXX '. however, i was sitting next to the intended recipient and he logged into cash app using his PHONE NUMBER and the app decided to log him in as XXXX XXXX or something else. the {$5.00} I sent is lost and cashapp support has decided to : 1. ignore my original request and ask for the same information 3 times. 2. ignore the details i had already provided in my original problem email as stated above. 3. decline to help me with the original issue and just state that the {$5.00} wen to XXXX XXXX successfully. i know it went to a scam account successfully. that was the original problem. cash app will now keep those {$5.00} and neither I nor the recipient have access to it. They allow you to send money to a phone number. they allow you to login with your phone number. but they will also create fake cash tags to hold the money and make it be lost to the consumer so they can keep it.

The only way to contact Ca $ h Out is via email I sent an email regarding the On authorized transaction and reached out via XXXX. They told me they would not help me due to this unknown device has logging onto my account before. I stated that I can show the serial numbers to my phone to prove that was not me authorizing this transaction, I also have face recognition on my phone.After I sent the following email I Heard no response from Cash app. I googled the persons name the money was sent to and it looks like a fake person account. If you look at my previous history Ive never sent money to this person in the past.This is not fair to me as a customer whos had a long standing relationship with cash app. Ive never had this issue happened in the past and nobody is trying to help me

On XX/XX/2020 someone fraudulently used my CashApp account to withdrawal money from my CashApp wallet as well as my bank account. I was able to contact my bank and submit a Regulation E claim for the fraudulent transaction, which they promptly resolved. However, when I tried to submit a notice of error to CashApp for the {$200.00} taken from my wallet on Cash App, I have been running in circles to submit my notice of error. I went the the CashApp website and contacted the telephone number given under its error resolution notice ( XXXX ). However, when I call this number it give a message that states that " Live phone support is not generally available at this time. '' The recorded message provides a website for further help. When you go to that website it does not offer options to report fraud. I closed my CashApp account to stop any additional fraud. At this point I am frustrated and just looking for help to get ahold of CashApp so I can report the fraud and request a refund of my {$200.00}.

I have Been using Cashapp for some time now. Just recently, while i was out of town, I transferred my unemployment money from my bank to cash app because i couldnt find my bank card. After about of week of having money in my account, i try to go and use my cashapp and my account is randomly closed. I try to contact support and all they tellbme is that I violated their TOS and they have the right to reserve and hold my funds. Its been a week now and Ive tried to get in touch with their customer service to try understand why my account closed and why cant transfer they money from my account. Most of all, i want to know what caused them to close my account because i dont understand how a {$28.00} transaction at XXXX or a XXXX XXXX XXXX ride could set cashapp off to thinking Im trying to commit fraud in my own account. Nobody will answer me, There is no phone number to contact a real person. I have XXXX dollars just sitting in cashapp with no way to retrieve. I really need help in this situation.

Square Inc. Refuses to return my money. I did not authorize any transaction where all of my money would be taken, who would? I had to file two complaints. The second complaint was resolved first and faster than the first complaint. I'm currently getting replies with copies of their policies. At first, the replies asked for more verifications. I've have never received help from this company, within days and weeks of them taking my money, they never helped me. Now I'm getting policies! Within days and weeks of me contacting them through customer service, they never helped. I wanted to have access to my account through their app and I just got the run around. And now they take all of my money. I need to know who is the right person that needs to hear my case? Who understands that since they never helped me to begin with, why should they keep my money? I have paperwork flooding with verification after verifications. I did everything they asked me to and still get nothing in return and loss more.

STAY AWAY FROM CASH APP!!! I have never opened a Visa Cash Card through Cash App. There is no where on their website under Contact Support to get through to a person or submit an inquiry as to why and how this account was established. Nor cancel the cash app Visa card. I think I have unlinked my email, but not really sure as this is not a very self explained website you go in. It sort of gives instructions that leads to no where. There is no way to get a hold of a live operator to dispute this fraud account either. The number they have is a recording and leaves you with nothing to go with and no option to speak to someone. Before this cash card came in the mail, I had to dispute a fraud charge by unknown trying to pay merchants with this cash app account through my debit XXXX account. Luckily, XXXX noticed this fraud and contacted me immediately to stop payment. This cash app account isnt safe and needs to discontinue service or shutdown completely. XXXX is much better and safer.

Square Recovery contacted me, by letter dated XX/XX/2019, about an unpaid balance on an account. The letter states that there is a negative balance of {$17.00} on the Square account ; and that I agreed to a digital invoice plan but they have not received my payment. Further, the letter stated that the account could be sent to a third-party collector. I contacted Square after receiving the letter, and told them that I do not have a Square account ; and that I don't have a digital payment plan with them. They stated that I needed to file a police report and contact the FTC. I did file a police complaint to indicate the fraud ; however, my complaint is against Square for creating a fraudulent account for someone else ; sending past due invoices to my home address ; and stating that they are going to involve a third-party collector for a fraudulent account. I asked them to resolve the balance by closing the account because it does not belong to me or my home address, but they would not.

I used my cash app card to put a deposit down on a cruise because of Covid 19 The cruise was canceled and the refund was issued to the original form of payment. The account was closed out and the debit card was destroyed that was associated with the account. I contacted the company and asked them to forward the money to me in a form of a check.they told me that they couldn't do that but I could open up another account and they could transfer the money over.then after I opened up the account and asked them to transfer the money over they said they couldn't do it because I didn't have the cash tag that they required. I had all other personal information about the account and every time I send them an email I was told that they couldn't help me and I should refer back to the previous email.they kept transferring my email to other customer service representatives who did not help at all. So now I have a refund in the amount of {$100.00} with this company in a refuse to give it to me.

I bought something from someone using cash app from XXXX and he told me that cash app had emailed him and said that it requested a refund for the money I sent to him previously, twice, both for XXXX dollars. Cash app said I did, but also said the guy had the money but couldnt tell me where my money was if it was refunded in the first place. Turned out to be a scam, as you can see from the screenshots are a scam, I never received the computer I paid for and I had to file a dispute with my bank and having to submit a police report because this is now considered a felony because its over {$500.00}. And cash app wont tell me where my money is or give me my refund, which is around $ XXXX. I will submit all screenshots if needed. But cash app needs to be held reliable as well! This is horrid customer service. PLEASE LEARN FROM MY MISTAKE. PLEASE MARK OUT ALL PERSONAL INFO, I DID NOT HAVE TIME TO DO IT FOR THE SAKE OF GETTING THIS COMPLETED BY THE END OF THE WEEK.

To date Square refuses to provide any transaction information or accept responsibility for not doing their due diligence. The transaction was completed using false information that square freely accepted as fact. I have plenty of supportive documentation to provide.

Our family decided to buy a special/rare breed of an hypoallergenic kitten to the isolated XXXX child in the house during the covid-19 pandemic, so we found a " breeder '' on a XXXX group and he offered a certain price ; he seem to be reliable while sending videos and pictures of the animal, always asking questions about our possibility to raise the kitten in a safe environment, always giving vivid details and constantly mentioning XXXX. Costs started to grow out of control, and every time we refused to send more money, or stop the agreement, through intimidation ( animal endangerment, going to court, etc ... ) the " seller '' would get more and more from us. Shipping confirmation was sent with the promise of a refund in case of no delivery, and we never received neither the kitten nor the refund. He still asks for money ( we already notified the local police, ic3 and our bank about it ). We hope to have our money back after all the stress and trauma caused. Thanks, XXXX XXXX.

On XX/XX/20 I transported a client from Georgia to New Jersey via car. The total charge was {$1200.00}, which was cash app ( Square ) to me. Square fees for this business transaction is {$43.00}, leaving {$1100.00} to be deposit into my bank account. Square indicated that the money would be in my account in 3 days due to the high amount. The next thing I know Square indicated that my account was terminated. I have attempted multiple times to get access to my funds, but I was transferred from person to person that was supposed to be who can resolve this problem, only to be told that they are not the one capable of helping me and they needed to transfer me to someone else. I was also told that I owed them money ( {$380.00} ) with no reason given. I was also told that they would release the money to me in 2 weeks, but that didn't happen either. It has now been 2 months. I delinked my account because I didn't trust them to do right and fearful that Square may continue to harm me.

I was attempting to call XXXX XXXX app and XXXX the XXXX number, called XXXX and was a victim of phishing. They asked for information and gained access to my XXXX XXXX app account. My XXXX XXXX App was compromised on XX/XX/XXXX. I notified XXXX XXXX App and my bank of the breach. An investigation was completed by XXXX XXXX App indicating my account had been compromised and that I should contact my bank to expedite a refund of monies unauthorized. My bank denied my dispute indicating XXXX XXXX App would be responsible for refunding my money on XX/XX/XXXX. I contacted XXXX App to again refund my funds totaling approximately {$5000.00}. To date I received a response via email, as XXXX App has no live phone support advising my file was being forwarded to the disputes department and someone would be in contact shortly. I have yet to get a response. I have been without my money for 10 days now and this is unimaginable as a mother of XXXX children. My entire account was wiped out.

On XX/XX/2020 I was the victim of a gunpoint robbery and was forced to give up my phone. My cash app account was then compromised and numerous attempts by the criminal to withdraw funds were made and some some were successful. {$580.00} was fraudulently withdrawn and upon discovery I immediately contacted cash app " support ''. They proceeded to blame me for being a victim of crime and decided to deny my refund claim. Cash app continues to make money per transaction ; fraudulent or not so they dont care about the end user or consumer. They need to be investigated immediately. In effect all of us who experienced similar issues are inadvertently helping them get unfairly enriched at our and my unfortunate expense. This is far from an isolated issue as cash apps business practices and lack of actual support resolutions makes cash app users a lucrative target for criminals who knowingly understand Cash apps consistent willful blind eye to fraudulent and criminal transactions.

They never showed me any proof just told me to reach out to my bank or let the recipient contact them about the fund. The money was lost.

I went to my financial institution on XXXX XXXX to file and dispute the {$230.00} that was stolen from my account and get a new bank card. They told me it would take 7 to 10 days to get it resolved through the fraud/dispute procedure. Today, XX/XX/2020 I received a credit card in the mail from CASH APP!!!! I NEVER, repeat NEVER opened or authorized a new account with this company. I have never heard of them until today and as of today I am still out of the {$230.00} that was stolen from this company. So far my bank hasn't disputed the charge. I am so mad because I don't know who opened this account in my name. Thank you

On XX/XX/2019, a friend requested through Cash App that it forward {$55.00} to my XXXX XXXX checking account. On XX/XX/2019, another friend requested that the company forward {$41.00} to the same account. Both used my cell phone number, and I only have one, to request the transfers to my account. In addition, I sent a {$100.00} payment to someone on XX/XX/2019. I checked Cash App to follow up on all these payments last Thursday, XXXX XXXX. I never received the first two payments, and my bank confirmed they were not received, although Cash App says the payments were made. The {$100.00} payment I made was never accepted by the recipient, and the Cash App shows it expired -- but the money was not returned to me. Attempts to reach them online through the app were futile, so I reached out through XXXX last Thursday, XXXX XXXX, and tagged CFPB. Cash App 's support service said someone would contact me within 12-24 hours. Almost four days later, I'm still waiting for a response.

I made a transaction with square for about XXXX with a company that I have been doing business with for many years and have don't multiple transactions. Everything was going fine the money was approved it should have gone in my account on the XXXX next day according to all the other transactions. I look at my account and it shows pending says it will be sent on the XXXX so I wait. Next day nothing I go to their dashboard online and that's where it says its suspended. I talk to the customer to see if they had the money removed from their account and they said they did. I looked at seeing I should refund it but read that if I did it would be taken out of my account and not the money that being held by them. That makes no sense because if they think it's fraud then just cancel the order. I have sent messages to square and no answer. I can't contact them directly cause supposedly my account in not active but they would let me do another transaction so they could hold that too

On XX/XX/2020 I incorrectly sent a payment in the amount of {$180.00} via cashapp to an inactive cashapp account. I resent the money to the right recipient account and then requested a refund via cashapp for the money sent to the inactive account but because the account is inactive there is no one on the other end to issue a refund. So I reached out to cashapp in hopes they could assist me, they had me send all the information only to turn around and tell me the following : Thank you for providing that information. Looking at your account, I can confirm these funds were successfully delivered to the recipients Cash App. I understand you have sent money to their other account, however Cash App is unable to cancel or refund completed payments. If the recipient is having trouble accessing that account, please have them contact us via their app or our Help Center. Feel free to pass this info along to the recipient and please let me know if you have any further questions.

My identity was stolen on XX/XX/2020 by someone that I was dating for XXXX month. While I was sleeping they transferred {$1300.00} through my cashapp to someone that I dont know. This person that stole the money hacked into my phone and changed my PIN number to my account and sent the money. My chime card was attached to my cashapp and they person that stole the money did test transactions to see if the money would go then transferred the rest. I contacted my local police department, XXXX, Cashapp and filed complaint with all 3 credit bureaus. XXXX and Cashapp basically said that the transaction wasnt in error even though I sent them all the information from the case. When XXXX tried to get the money back from Cashapp thats when they closed my account and stated that I violated there policies. Chime based there decision on where my card was located and where my PIN number was located. They didnt even look at the police report nor the information from the credit bureaus.

Background : Cash App advertised a boost or credit of {$5.00} that can be used on any purchase This boost is automatically unlocked after making one purchase at XXXX Once available, the boost must be selected in app prior to making a purchase in order for the credit to apply For locked boosts, the unlock process is automatic after a qualifying purchase and does not require anything to be selected at anytime - in fact, its not possible. Only when using a boost does it need to be selected in app, prior to use towards a purchase. Problem : I made a qualifying purchase with XXXXXXXXXXXX on XXXX/XXXX/2020. The boost was not unlocked automatically, so I contacted Cash App email support for assistance. Multiple Cash App support representatives have replied, incorrectly telling me that the boost wasnt selected at the time of purchase and that is the reason the boost is still locked. They have refused to correctly identify the problem, fix the issue, and unlock the boost.

Square card on XX/XX/21 let someone charge a Total of {$5000.00} as if it were me charging on the app.They then virtually let the person order a Square card and transfer funds to it. They attached it to XXXX XXXX on their phone and went on a shopping spree. When I saw this I alerted Square and was explained that I would not be responsible for any of the charges. On XX/XX/21 I was helping a friend out with an estate sale and rang in {$1800.00} in sales. When it went to my account for deposit only {$1100.00} went over. I looked at the account and it showed four of the fraudulent transactions were disputed and subtracted from my balance. The amounts in question are {$180.00}, XXXX, XXXX and XXXX totaling {$770.00}. I have spent hours on the phone with dozens of reps and no one seems to be able to resolve the situation. They have told me everything from we owe you nothing, get a lawyer and even told me I credited the accounts back. Please help me resolve this situation.

I invited my daughter to join CASH APP and we each got a {$5.00} bonus. The {$5.00} bonus showed up right away. She then initiated a payment to me in the amount of {$170.00} on XX/XX/XXXX. I immediately received a text notification from CASH APP about the {$170.00} payment, but the payment never showed up on my CASH APP acct. I went through their help menu and followed their instruction to add my cell number to my acct. Still never showed up. Other payments I have sent and received to/from other individuals have appeared right away. There is still no sign of the {$170.00}, even though it was taken out of my daughter 's bank acct on XX/XX/XXXX. I have sent numerous emails, XXXX messages, XXXX messages, and even XXXX about it. I have tried calling every number I can find and they either don't work, or have only a recorded menu telling you to go back to their online help. They either need to refund my daughter 's money, or process the payment so it actually comes to me.

I sent a friend {$500.00} through the Square cash app. It was never accepted and canceled out automatically. I resent the payment, then reached out to him. He never received it. We realized that the money had been sent to an account set up with his old work email. I sent the money again to his new account, expecting the other one to be canceled out automatically. Somehow the old account is linked to his new one though, because when he accepted one, the other one was accepted as well. Unfortunately my friend no longer has access to that original account. We have bother reached out to Square multiple times about this, but they will not refund the money nor help him access that account. The money is now permanently in an account that no one has access to besides Square. They have essentially stolen this money and are refusing to work to resolve it. The only replies I have received from them are standard form responses saying that payments can not be refunded.

I added XXXX to my Cash App, run by XXXX XXXX and Square Cash App. After Adding the XXXX I unlocked my card to use it for spending like I usually do. Upon making the purchase the merchant said he received an odd error code that never happened before. I went back to the app and did this 5 times. The App declined the purchase 5 times. I had been using the app frequently throughout the entire month and this never occurred. They were not only trying to block my transaction but did it intentionally. I uploaded the funds 10 minutes prior to swiping the card online while on the phone with the merchant. They denied me my purchase and never fixed the app even after reporting it 5 times by email and by contact on the app. I deleted the app and then downloaded it 2 times and it still did not work. They intentionally blocked my purchase. If you look at the image attached while on the app, it shows I added XXXX then immediately after they declined my purchase repeatedly.

On XX/XX/2019 I tried to withdraw the cash out on my Square Cash app. They have 2 options : 1 ) add immediately which charges a fee 2 ) receive in 2 business days. This transaction was for {$160.00}. I received another payment Wednesday and I chose the same option and that cash was to be deposited into my primary banking account on XX/XX/2019. On XXXX I received another virtual payment and I opted in for the fee due to the issues with the transaction on XX/XX/2019. I contacted Square Cash XX/XX/2019 and they claimed they have been aware of this issue and they are working to fix it. However, they are not providing a disclaimer that this function is not working. This means people are expecting their money in 2 business days but they are not receiving their withdrawals or an explanation unless they email their customer support email. I am waiting on almost {$200.00} and it was advertised I would receive this money Tuesday and Friday. I havent received anything.

I am a victim of identity theft. The thief has my social security number and is using it to open accounts in my name at a number of institutions, including a CashApp card from Square. When I received the XXXX card in the mail, I did not yet know about the fraud and assumed it was a promotional item, and therefore disposed of it. I need someone there to help me locate the account using other information, so that I can have it shut down. They have no customer service phone number. When I emailed with them, I went in circles for days until they insisted there's nothing they can do without the account number. I've emailed them multiple times since ( including emails for executives I found on a consumer watchdog website ), and have received no reply. This is outrageous and they should be held accountable for their absolute lack of concern for the very serious and very prevalent issues of identity theft and financial fraud, not to mention for their actual customers.

I was the victim of a check deposit scam that included transferring money on the Cash App platform from Square Inc . I applied for job, for which I 'interviewed ' and was 'accepted '. As part of the scam, the criminal sent me a check on XX/XX/2020 for XXXX USD which I was instructed to deposit in my account ( I did on the same day ) and make a transfer to a 'vendor ' for XXXX USD, who would provide me with materials necessary for the job. I used Cash App to make the transfer on XX/XX/XXXX. After I made the transfer, the check was rejected by my bank because the bank that had issued the check did not recognize the account number on the check ( XX/XX/XXXX ). I alerted Cash App to the scam and requested to file a fraud claim against the recipient ( an account clearly belonging to the perpetrator of the scam ). Not only did they refuse to refund me for the fraudulent transfer, they didn't even have a process by which I could file a fraud claim with the company.

Because the company never send me my order, and I have been contacting them by email, they don't reply to my emails. Another dispute is {$120.00} from XXXX XXXX. Why do I need to dispute that because I didn't pass their program? On their site, it's said they offer refunds. Still, contact the business by email and tell them there was a glitch in their system that makes me void the program rules. They told me I couldn't get a refund or a free retake 's and I have been contacting y'all support about their disputes.

This is kind of a two part problem with BOTH XXXX and CashApp. What happened was is that I attempted to purchase football tickets through an individual online, I know huge mistake. I was scammed. They requested {$120.00} ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ) through CashApp. I sent it and the person claimed they never got it. So we attempted XXXX, in the promise that they will return the original {$120.00} IF they receive it. So I sent {$40.00} ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ) on XXXX and another {$110.00} ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ) through another bank that I have. Same thing. They claimed they never got it. Thats when it started to click that I was being scammed. After I refused to send anymore money, they blocked me. I have no way of contacting this individual. I have attempted every possible route to recover my money. XXXX and CashApp wont help me. My banks wont help. My XXXX XXXX XXXX claims department recommended me to go through this route. Is there anything you guys can do for me?

I have a account with cash app so does my fiance on XX/XX/XXXX I sent her {$1000.00} from my cash app account she then sent me back {$250.00} the same day we send money to each other like this often but I never received the money she sent, cash app or Square says the payment was received. I ended up signing out of the cash app by mistake and cash app now tells me I will need to open a new account and then they will merge my new account with the old and I should have access to my funds which after a month of e-mails back and forth has not given me access to my funds or my original account with my money the {$250.00} in it. They are saying for security reasons they can not give me access even thought I have provided my full legal name and full social and state zip. My fiance? Who has cash app and sent me the {$250.00} lives at the same address so not sure why they can not verify its me and legit and trace down my money and give me access to it..

On XXXX XX/XX/2021, I received via US Postal Service a Cash App Visa debit card issued by XXXX XXXX. The debit card and underlying Cash App account are fraudulent, as I did not open either. On XXXX XX/XX/2021, I contacted XXXX XXXX via telephone to request the debit card be canceled. However, my attempts to contact Cash App, an online banking application by Square , Inc, to cancel the underlying account were unsuccessful as Cash App offers no means to report fraud via its website or telephone. Cash App only provides a generic mailing address for unspecified purpose. I suspect Square, Inc. has purposely structured Cash App in this manner to avoid the administrative burden of handling consumer complaints. I believe Square, Inc. thereby cynically facilitates criminal financial activity by frustrating consumer fraud reporting. I request you examine this issue and hold Square, Inc. accountable for allowing this abuse of my personal information.

XX/XX/XXXX {$3800.00} was sent from my cash app to my angry ex spouse cash app while i was totally unaware. I was under impression my device was lost or stolen but it was not just hidden so i couldnt check apps. The money was to be paid for a ticket at police station now that is resulting in a warrant until paid so i cant physically go up to make a police report at the very moment because of the situation. Ive Reported to my bank And filed a claim with the CFPB Which is XXXX XXXX XXXX currently they are investigating the claim dispute. What they denied my original unauthorized transaction XX/XX/2021 because cash app told them there was no new log in device and the transaction was made from my device, as Ive stated already it was knowledgeably and unauthorized from my device without my permission. Chatted with cash app today And they denied the claim and didnt even ask me what took place. I feel that Ive been violated off some federal right.

Square merchant services terminated our account on XX/XX/2021. We are one of the largest marketplaces for XXXX and hemp-derived products on the Internet. They did not give any reason or elaboration. The fact that 90 % + of the brands on our site also use Square, and none have been terminated is very concerning. This is a clear case of prejudice and targeting one company over others. We believe we have been targeted or it's a case of prejudice from people inside Square. If we can not take payments, we will not be able to pay our operational costs. Square did not even give us time to find another solution. It's unreasonable and unwarranted behavior, especially in a time when millions of Americans are suffering because of the Pandemic. We are in full compliance with federal and state regulations. We have a refund rate of less than 1 % and a 0 % chargeback rate, so we are not a risky account. This action by Square is extremely suspect.

On XXXX, 2020, I purchased items from a Hair company called XXXX via cash app. I sent {$250.00} to a hair supplier thinking they were an actual legit hair company. But they were falsely posing as another company and scamming customers. As soon as I sent the money, they blocked me on XXXX ( where our conversation took place ). Their cash app tag is $ XXXX, I immediately reported them to cash but received no response both times. so I had no choice but to dispute the charge with my bank XXXX. After calling them XXXX honored me a credit for my claim, but on XX/XX/XXXX, ruled the transaction as authorized. so they took back their initial {$250.00} credit. I have screenshots of the conversion with the hair supplier, with me providing my shipping info for a tracking number. Both Cashapp and XXXX have not done their part in identifying the scammer, despite the evidence. Cashapp has all the info but still allows these women to scam customers.

On XX/XX/2020 two unwarranted transactions took place on CashApp account. These transactions were requested by XXXX XXXX for {$2500.00} and XXXX XXXX for {$940.00}. I do not know either of these people. I requested a refund the same day. I have yet received any funds. I also attempted to contact Cash.App customer support by phone. XXXX XXXX, who answered and presented himself as a support agent with CashApp, told me to open CashApp and directed me to accept the transactions. He requested my bank card number and connected to my phone with XXXX XXXX. He used that information to take an additional {$1000.00} from my bank account, then erased my phone number, email address and transaction history from my CashApp account. I am retired and live on a fixed income. I don't know how I'm going to pay next months rent or buy medicine. Please refund my money ASAP. If you any questions, please feel free to contact me.

On XX/XX/2019, I attempted to send money using Cash App. I received a response that stated I needed to verify my identity. I provided my name, phone number, and address. Cash app Then had me take a picture of my drivers license and debit card. Cash App also had me allow access to my contacts which was uploaded. Cash app then made me sign in to my bank to retrieve account information. After all four steps were completed, cash app immediately closed my account. I reached out to ask why. The response was I violated the terms and conditions. I asked specifically what terms and conditions I violated and never received a response. I have asked this question twice. I am concerned about my privacy since I provided a lot of accurate but private information to verify my identity. If there is some other term that was violated ( identity couldnt be the cause ), then why was I asked to divulge such private information? I will be seeking civil action.

I submitted all documentation to XXXX then on XX/XX/2020 another representative sent another email asking for the exact same information that was already sent.

I first signed up for Cash App in order obtain a convenient and free service in order to make personal transactions easier. After signing up, I had a cash card sent and later the same was stolen from my possession. To make matters worse, the phone number I had originally used was no longer in service. The requirement of a two-factor authorization left me without a leg to stand on when attempting to log in to my account. Over the next couple of years, I periodically received requests for transfers from an individual I did not know. I thought nothing of it until I realized that the same had renamed, reprofiled and repossessed my account. Possibly using my own name as their own, this individual was successful in completing taking hold of my account. I tried numerous times to retrieve the same, only to be halted by automated phone systems and less than satisfactory email messages. I could not for the life of me get a human on the phone.

Cash app has no customer service and all these mobile platforms have the same theme wherein they are allowing these hacks to occur to the general public. I called cash app customer support and no answer. I can't use email because my whole account is missing. Last year I was hacked via cash app. I had all the security setups a person can have. It seems like these hacks use a sophisticated technology as my whole cash app account is gone. Why are all these hacks ALLOWED to occur to the people across country. we have the technology to stop this. I not stupid as I have communicated with these hackers and the one common theme is they tend to be of XXXX descent. The same happened with XXXX where I lost XXXX last year with no resolve. Since all this stuff is digital it's a matter of time before the next person get targeted.

According to ATM Fees On Cash Card, cash cards work at any ATM, with just a {$2.00} fee charge from by Cash App. Most ATMs will charge an additional fee for using a card that belongs to a different bank. You can get all these fees reimbursed by receiving direct deposits to your Cash app. I used a XXXX ATM to make a {$200.00} withdraw. I was informed by a Cash App representative that as long as I use a XXXX ATM machine with the Money I wouldnt be charged any fees to withdraw funds. I also was informed that if I received direct deposit to my cash app I also wouldnt be charged any ATM fees. Kind regards, XXXX XXXX

I use the Cashapp to send money to friends and make occasional purchases. Sometime between XX/XX/XXXX - XX/XX/XXXX there is money that was sent to me and my balance reflected that. Mysteriously the balance was lower without any transactions. I tried to call Cashapp but there is no phone service available. I started several emails to ask where the missing funds are. I was sent a statement from them which outlines all incoming ( + ) and outgoing ( - ) transactions as well as a beginning and ending balance. The statement itself reflects that there is, in fact, missing monies of {$1100.00}. I have tried to figure out what exactly happened, but I can not pinpoint a specific transaction and I have attempted to guess. The company is slow to respond and has automatically closed several of my emails after 3 days without trying to reach me. I have been contacted by several different account specialists always changing during the process.

I did a transaction through Square Merchant services. Square will not release my funds. They will not give me a reason why they are holding on to {$1100.00}. I've done business with them for ten years. All of a sudden, they just hold this money for no reason. I called three times, each time they told me they would escalate it to their review team. ( Which is supposed to only take 24 hours and it's been 6 days ). After my third attempt on the phone, I tried to call again, but they blocked me from receiving a support code that allows you to speak with a live representative. I have emailed them since XX/XX/2020 and still, I have not received a response. What's odd is they took out {$220.00} from my bank account, when the transactions came through. So they were able to make money for themselves but unable to pay me my money. Interesting. They blatantly are robbing me. I am a single mother with XXXX children. Please help me.

I reached out to Cash App support, which could only be done via email, and I received a response that asked 5-6 questions regarding the fraudulent charges. I provided all the information they requested and additional supporting information that they didn't request and I still haven't heard anything back. Then 2 days later, I observed money being put back into my account ( {$2000.00} ) and I had no way of transferring it to my bank account due to me having to cancel card that was linked to Cash App and I tried emailing Cash App support several times to inquire if it was them putting money back but I still haven't received a response and then money was taken back out 10 minutes later. I need help with this issue and getting my money back. Please help me. Thank you in advance.

In 2021 I opened a Square account for my business to process credit card payments. On XX/XX/2021 I received an email from Square Inc. notifying me about account deactivation. I was not given any details, or a contact method to reach someone at Square. All my attempts to email or call failed. Not only this impacted my business tremendously, especially that we were at the beginning, and needed at least some notice in advance, but also Square placed a hold on our funds - {$2000.00} that we processed earlier in sales. The hold was for 90 days- which is above any normal term of transaction hold- until XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX. Additionally, on XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX sent another email saying that there will be an additional hold of 30 more days. The way Square communicates with their customer is unacceptable. It is a one way communication, without giving an option for questions or dispute. Also, the hold times is ridiculous and reasonless.

On XX/XX/2020, my phone and computer were stolen. Somehow, the thieves broke through my passwords and accessed my Cash App and XXXX accounts. They drained my bank card for about {$10000.00}. I reported this to both agencies along with a list of the fraudulent transactions and the police report. XXXX replaced the stolen funds but Cash App is refusing. I am a furloughed worker due to Covid 19 with unemployment benefits and eviction protection running out. I wish so badly my phone and computer hadnt been stolen because this is literally ruining my life. Cash app has many many consumer complaints which they do not care about resolving. There is no way to speak with a live person. They are a rip off and should not be allowed to do business this way. I am happy to furnish any documents to you which I have already submitted to Cash App. I want my stolen funds refunded to me. This is so unfair. Please please help me. XXXX XXXX.

On XXXX, I sent {$50.00} to each of my grandsons for their birthday from my Cash App account ( $ XXXX {$81.00} ). The funds were sent as two separate transactions to each of their Cash App accounts ( $ XXXX $ ) ( $ XXXX $ ). Neither grandson has received the funds, although my bank ( XXXX XXXX XXXX ) shows that each transaction for a total of {$100.00} was transferred from my checking account. The funds were sent to the Cash App account of each grandson and it appears that the funds were received by the grandsons but they did not get the money. They have been unable to receive the funds. I have spoken to Cash App customer service multiple times as well as attempted to file a dispute with my bank. However, neither has been able to explain what happened to the funds. My bank will not give me back my money. I believe that my Cash App account has been hacked by scammers and Cash App refuses to acknowledge the fraud.

I'm trying to deposit money into my account from an account at another bank. They took a small amount of my money and now they won't let me use their service or give me my money back. This is the response I received. " Sorry to hear that it didn't worked. Apologies for the troubles. I know how agitating it is for you. This kind of issue is because of security reason. We review every transaction to ensure the protection of our customers, and the integrity of our service. Occasionally, we determine that a transaction can not be completed. In the meantime, what I can suggest is to keep on trying those basic trouble shooting until it works. You are welcome to try adding cash again. If it does not work, you may need to send this payment outside Cash App if necessary. We hope for your understanding. No worries, our Account Services Team is constantly working on this matter and to be able to provide a good service ''

On XX/XX/2021 My Cash App card was charged by XXXX XXXXXXXX both for {$310.00} and {$350.00} for airline travel without my knowledge or consent. I've tried multiple times since to dispute the charges formally with VisaXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXXCash App/Square Inc all of each who say I can only dispute with Cash App. Cash App never answers the phone, it refers you to chat. Chat refers you to email, email refers you to chat or to dispute it on the app. There's is no such dispute function on the app. No human ever is inlvolved and now over 3 weeks no formal dispute is filed for transactions I didn't authorize. Visa nor XXXX nor XXXXXXXX XXXX care whatsoever of the viloation in cardholder agreement, XXXX also doesn't care it was the merchant who charged my card without consent, it all referes back to Cash App with XXXX XXXX in XXXX but no customer support to resolve any issue. How is this not a class action lawsuit already?

My credit card purchase receipt from a vendor ( From : " XXXX XXXX XXXX via Square '' XXXX Date : XXXX XXXX, 2020 at XXXX CDT ) that uses Square was automatically sent by Square to my stepdaughter. My stepdaughter when questioning receipt of a transaction she never made spoke to me. I recognized the transaction as one I had made approximately - 2 hours earlier. My credit card acct. is through a credit union which she has no association with. The credit union has verified her non-association and opened an investigation. The receipt was sent to her email address which I dont even have, she lives out of state and her last name is not the same as mine. This straddles the line between credit card fraud, identity theft and a little illegal data mining thrown in. I have asked Square to explain this or send me a contact email or phone number so I can discuss this with them but have received absolutely no response from them.

XX/XX/2020 I bought XXXX via cash app. I was asked to add my ID to my profile to verify it was me using the account. I tried numerous of times to upload my info to the app but it kept giving me an error message that it could not read my ID. I looked into the steps again to make sure my photo was in good lighting etc. After doing those steps again, I continued to get this error message. I decided to contact support services on XX/XX/2020 I received an email for cash app support with employee names XXXX stated that I should upload my ID front and back and send it within the secure folder link that was sent with email. I did this and was told it will talk up to 10 days for a response. On XX/XX/XXXX I sent a follow up email to ask if they are going to respond to my request.. I have it another 3 days and sent the same email asking for an update. I did this about 2 more times and still have not gotten any response yet.

I booked a trip for 4 clients on XX/XX/XXXX, and received 2 separate payments on XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX for {$7900.00}. After the second payment, Square suspended my account and froze all transfers of money. I then immediately submitted the documentation required to get my account reinstated, including receipts, payment authorization forms submitted by the clients, operating and organizational paperwork filed with the state, and everything else they required. On XX/XX/XXXX they deactivated my account and said that all transfers will be frozen for 90 days. I tried to call them, chat with them, email them, but everything either sends me to a robot or a noreply message with no ability to talk to a human. I now can't pay my vendors, including hotels that are selling out, so may have to cancel my clients trip or have really dissatisfied clients, effectively putting my business at risk. I don't know what to do!

On XX/XX/2021 from XXXX XXXX to XXXX XXXX 6 transactions of {$250.00} came from my cashapp account to and the recipient with $ cashtag $ XXXX. I had {$15000.00} stolen in 1 minute. I hadnt even heard of this account before nor was I even awake when this occurred. By the time I woke up ( XXXX XXXX ) I immediately tried to requested a refund from the account that stole and tried to dispute them as fraudulent and contact cashapp to inform then that I had been hacked. Immediately I received an automated email telling me basically nothing and that I needed to send the information to dispute through their email. I then responded to the email and continued to get the same automated email 3 more times before they informed me that since my device made the transactions that my claim was denied and they will not be refunding my money. Which isnt possible seeing as I was alone and no one was on my device, not even me.

My Cash App account was closed because I allegedly violated their Terms of Service. When I was notified of this, I read Cash Apps Terms of Service and found that I had not done anything to warrant my account being closed for violation of their TOS. I contacted Cash App to resolve this matter, and Cash App refuses to explain to me what I did and they refuse to reopen my account. I have about {$7000.00} in my Cash App account as I use Cash App as my bank account and there is no way to spend or get my money out of my Cash App, as I do not have a bank account to Cash Out to. I can not buy food and I can not get paid, as my Cash Card and my routing and account numbers associated with my Cash App have been deactivated. I am certain that I did not violate any of Cash Apps Terms of Service and that the closure of my account was made in error. Cash App has failed to remediate my issue in a timely and helpful manner.

I use the cashapp for my business and I was paid on their by some customers. And in the middle of the night Friday XX/XX/2021 and Saturday XX/XX/2021. I was charge four times by XXXX Ads ( I have no idea what this is ) of {$25.00} dollars. Totaling in {$100.00} and they continued to try and charge my card four more times, but their was no money left and I blocked the card. I have been trying to contact cashapp through email. This is the only way you can actually get in touch with someone. Which they have continually send me to someone else. One person told me I had to contact the merchant, but how Im suppose to contact the merchant if I dont know who they are or how to contact them. When I ask no one has answered are responded to any of my question. I have emails everyday since and no one has responded to my complaints. I think its ridiculous that you can not speak to someone on the phone if you are a bank.

I was going to help out and friend In need. I went to cash app them {$100.00} and it was sent to the wrong cash app. I requested it back from the person and they would not send it back. I reached out to cash app customer service and they said there was nothing the could do. They said the only way I could get it back is if the person was willing to send it back. They would not. They just kept requesting more money for me. So now I am out of {$100.00} that I could really use during the pandemic we are currently going through in America. I tried to make a claim through the bank and there was nothing they could do either because of some cash app privacy act. I was told I had to contact you guys and file a complaint to get my refund back. Any help would be great. I would really appreciate it a refund during these hard times to help put food on the table for my family. Thank you. Phone : XXXX Email : XXXX XXXX

I used cash app to send money, it was sent to the wrong person and the person completed the transaction immediately.Cash app only allows you to request the money back from the person, which I did. The person declined me twice and kept my money that was not hers. Cash app provides no recourse such as stopping the transfer or requesting the money back for me. They were really of no help. I attached our correspondence and the evidence I have in regards to the transaction. I did file a dispute at my bank, they were of no help, they said they have little experience retrieving money from cash app when there is a error or problem. That I need to contact cash app, that is why I'm filling a claim here. Cash app should be liable for getting my funds of 150.00 returned. or have an immediate dispute button on their app for these instances that would have stopped the person from taking money that did not belong to her.

I was using the square Cash app for P2P money transfers. I had a birthday gift of {$300.00} that was transferred to the wrong bank. Basically, When I did not see the money in my account I check my default bank information in the Cash app only to see a XXXX ban account I did not recognize. I only saw the last 4 digits of the account but deleted right away because I did not want them to take more money from me. When I called XXXX, they said they could not help without more information. Cash app said they couldn't help and that I needed to contact XXXX XXXX. So, pretty much ignored by both entities and was told by each to contact the other. When I told my friend about this recently, he checked his default bank with cash app and it was a mysterious wrong bank! I suspect that Cash app is able to be hacked, where the hacker can input their own bani information into the app, so money is transferred to it.

I added a XXXX XXXX cashback offer to my card and then made a purchase at the relevant merchant for {$19.00}. Before that transaction went through, the merchant put a {$1.00} authorization charge on the card, a normal practice for many companies, which was quickly reversed. The cashback offer was applied to the authorization rather than my purchase. My XXXX had the exact same issue for her own {$19.00} purchase with the XXXX XXXX cash back offer. I contacted support and was given irrelevant copy-pasted information for XXXX days until someone finally paid enough attention to understand what my problem was. At that point they essentially told me " XXXX XXXX '' and ended the conversation. If the company is going to act like authorization charges count as the cashback purchase then essentially nobody that ever tries to use the offer will ever get cashback and the company is committing wide scale fraud.

He again paid rent via cashapp in XX/XX/XXXX, XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX He has proof he paid, the problem is the money never was sent to me the landlord. He called a number for cashapp on line and the representative was most helpful in hacking into my bank accounts. When i contacted customer service at cash app, they only respond via email. I was told via email that my account was compromised, I needed to open a new account and the money would be transferred. That never happened. In fact cashapp wanted my bank account information and all corresponding passwords. I refused to share this information and was told the sender would receive a refund. That has not happened. I email cashapp weekly asking for assistance and my money and I don't get a response. I am talking about over {$4500.00} in missing cash.

I text the scammer the same day and they reply with " The item is available ''. They told me to send them the money and and the shipping information thinking XXXX XXXX has some sort of protection but unfortunately they don't. I sent them the money via cash app ( {$140.00} ) and extra money ( {$20.00} ) for overnight shipping as they provided me with pictures taken at the XXXX facility. Their cash tag is " $ XXXX ''. once I sent them the money, they stopped replying to my texts or calls. after I try texting them from a different number asking them if the item is still available and the reply with yes. this scam is sickening and something should be done to punish these people. the account was on XXXX XXXX and the account 's name was XXXX.

On XX/XX/2021 at XXXX XXXX., I made a {$20.00} purchase in a stock on CashApp. The transaction was to be executed at XXXX XXXX when the market opens. I had noticed the transaction never went through. So, I proceeded to try and cancel my purchase. I received a notification that the refund couldn't process. I continued and nothing would happen at all or sometimes it would day error or network connection error. My gripe is why wasn't my purchase processed at XXXX XXXX. when the market opened, and when it was suppose to anyway. Then, my money is just sitting on CashApp 's platform, when it was suppose to be invested. Now, they are holding my money not allowing me to access it. This is unethical and a little shady. What if that {$20.00} that was meant to be invested into a stock accumulated from it's investment. Now, I wouldn't know because CashApp illegally held my money, and now will not release it.

On XX/XX/2021, my sister and I went to dinner and split the bill. She asked if I paid for it could she cashapp me the {$150.00}. I said yes forgetting how long it had been since she cashapped me so I went to the account I havent had access to since XXXX because I got a new phone. Once I realized it she and I both immediately contacted cashapp to try and cancel the funds. For several days I was asked for verifying information that I submitted just for them to determine that the account couldnt be reinstated for security reasons and it was no way to return the funds to the sender. They keep stating it is for security reasons but also so told my sister the funds cant be canceled because it was completed. I kept asking why cant the funds be returned if theyve deemed the account inaccessible. They are stating they cant provide any details the funds wont be approved to be returned back to the sender.

Beginning XX/XX/21 through XX/XX/21 I had several aunauthorized transactions to a merchant called XXXX on my cashapp account which is serviced by square. On XX/XX/21 I contacted cashapp support and they filed a dispute on those transactions. I received a partial credit for a few of the transactions however there were still 31 transactions for {$99.00} each that I did not receive credit for. They then tell me in an email on XXXX that they will not be returning the remaining funds and they have no additional information and for me to reach out to the merchant. I explained I did attempt that however i never received a response. I emailed several more times asking why the dispute was denied and was never given a reply or a reason. I resubmitted the dispute on XX/XX/21 and was told I would receive an update in 10 business days. Today is the 10th business day and still I have not received anything.

I have been using cash app as for personal transactions. Cash App had been charging me a fee for receiving funds under the pretense that I was set up as a business account. I did not realize this shouldnt be happening until a friend asked why are they charging me a fee to receive money and this should not be happening. Immediately I reached out to cash app and explained to them the issue. They stated that I had been setup as a business account and they would change it immediately. I explained to them that I did not set the account up as a business account as I never was given the option to choose between personal or business during my account setup. I requested a refund for all the fees associated with their error of setting me up as a business. They only gave me {$6.00} for days of fees. I requested for all of the fees charged in error since inception of my account and now they have refused.

I did an instant transfer ( XX/XX/21 ) of {$16.00} from cash app to my LISTED XXXX account. The money was not received. I texted cash app support the next day. The person didn't know why it didn't transfer and credited me the XXXX cent transfer fee. Waited the 3-5 days for normal delivery, but still not there. XXXX says it wasn't received. Cash app says they sent it. Normally, I get an email confirmation from XXXX when money is received. But, i didn't this time. Now, cash app says it's nothing they can do but provide the transaction date, time, expected location and Retrieval code, to which XXXX suggests that info can not be used and is internal to cash app. I've since closed my cash app account after several days of back and forth. I've even contacted XXXX, who then, after their letter to Cash app didn't help much, suggested I come here to get possible closure and my money from cash app.

Hi, I have XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX. We use Square to process credit card sales. Square allowed my banking deposit information to be changed without my knowledge. Square transferred {$17000.00} of proceeds from my business credit card sales into 7 different bank. We have used Square for the past few years with the same bank account. Just the fact that the account was changed should have raised red flags, let alone that there were 7 different banking changes to the account. Square has not given any information on how this could have happened or who was involved. Square has covered {$8000.00} of the loss with no explanation. In my last call to Square I was told the case was closed and the conversation was no longer productive. The representative then hung up. Although Square supplied the names of the 7 banks where the money was transferred they will not tell us who or how this was possible.

I then reached out to Cash App on XX/XX/19, which is my debit card holder. Cash app canceled my card and mailed me a new card. They told me I would here back from them within 10 days. They responded to me on XX/XX/19 and told me that my dispute was declined by their disputes team and for me to contact the merchants. I asked for them to provide me with proof that they tried to reach out to the merchants on my behalf since I had already explained that I tried that first. I was told that they did not try.

Cash app told me to request a refund from the person that scammed me and I did but they blocked me from requesting my payment back, cash app is saying they can not give me my money back or issue me a refund and I feel like that is horrible customer service and they need to be shut down, the girl needs to be put into jail, and if they cant get a direct customer service number then they no longer need to be available for use. I am very hurt by this situation of not being able to receive my money and cash app not helping me get my money back. Please help!!

I have been using the prepaid visa debit card Cash app for about 2-3 years. You can not spend one cent over your limit. If you are over when paying it is rejected immediately. I used my card for my stimulus payment due to the pandemic. I bought what I needed. As of XX/XX/2020, I had a balance of {$180.00}. When I woke this morning at my cash app sent a message saying I was - {$140.00}. They have no customer service phone with live agents to immediately report the problem only email support, which they send only generic responses. I believe the cash app is stealing the stimulus funds, should be looked into under the RICO Act and shut down for extortion. I also believe this is XXXX. What reputable company has no live customer service? I never had an issue with this card until I received the stimulus payment. I regret having used this card. I need help. I do not owe the cash app {$140.00}.

CashApp/XXXX XXXX are running an outrageous scam. They told people that if they get their pay deposited into a CashApp/XXXX XXXX account they'd get {$100.00} off their next purchase. What they didn't mention is that their card is a prepaid card not a debit card and can not be used in certain stores. The {$100.00} disappeared because of this. When attempting to close the Debit Card and Bank accounts, they said they would not do so unless I deleted my entire cashapp. Unfortunately, to function in 2021 it is necessary to have cashapp although I've moved as much as I can to XXXX. However, this hostage situation that forces me to leave this card and bank account open to ahve the base functions of the app ( that operated just fine without them before ) is ridiculous as when setting this up, it was never stated that this was an irreversible decision, even after talking to them for a month.

Cash App is only available via email for customer service and has continued to miss the point of our concerns. They have not addressed the issue of apparent fraud or explained what happened here for our peace of mind and understanding. Additionally, it is not possible to reach the XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX listed on the card. Is is very alarming to receive a card with your name on it that you had nothing to do with and we are getting very little help or reassurance from Cash App and Square, Inc. in regard to this matter. The company seems to have very poor safety and security measures in place and does very little to assist customers.

This is regarding Cash App, a unit of Square. Without warning on Saturday XX/XX/2019, my account was closed. I had just about {$220.00} in my mobile balance and I have been unable to withdraw funds per their instructions. I contacted customer service via email and XXXX because they do not provide a phone number for issues, which in and of itself is an insane thing, and was told they had not heard from me regarding a case for a week so they closed the case and my account. I can not withdraw my funds and I have no idea what's going on. They are totally unresponsive and, again, they do not provide a phone number to speak with someone for complaints like this. All I want to do is maintain my account, discuss whatever this case is that they said I did not respond to when in fact I was never notified that there was a case requiring my response, and withdraw the money that is rightfully mine.

I was unknowingly a victim of a scam on XX/XX/XXXX of this year through Cash App. Some guy named XXXX XXXX removed all of my money out of my account to buy bitcoins without my permission. I had a total of {$53.00} on my card and he left me with {$0.00}. Ive been contacting the cash app team so that I can get my money back. And its been extremely frustrating. They locked my account on Thursday due to unusual activity and I have find in the account that I can not use. This guy was supposed to be reactivating my old card because I found it after I requested a replacement. And he took my money without my permission instead. And he later called me from several numbers to make fun of what he did. And he also told me to download a XXXX XXXX to freeze my phone while he removed my money without my permission. I really do hope you guys can help get my money back, because I really need it back.

Hi i requested a dispute on XX/XX/XXXX for services i paid for but were not provided to me. On XX/XX/XXXX and after calling several times on XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX XXXX bank said there is no way they can help me with a dispute because the transaction was done with Square and XXXX XXXX don't have any dispute rights that the only company that could help and i should call is Square. I called Square and they said is incorrect that they were not able to help and this is something XXXX XXXX has to dispute, i kept calling XXXX XXXX and they keep referring me to Square since they are the only company that can fix this according to them. Square and XXXX XXXX are both violating my rights and they just dont care, XXXX XXXX said they dont have dispute rights. I was a victim of a fraud, if Square is the one that has to initiate my dispute i need them to help me with this and i need your help also.

On XX/XX/XXXX Square Account Services deactivated my account after advising they were not able to support my business needs. In an email on XX/XX/XXXX, Account Services advised that any funds currently in my account balance will be held for a period of 90 days and released to my on XX/XX/XXXX and that the funds will be available in my bank account within 2 business days. They indicated that the release date and amount available for release are subject to change if they received additional chargebacks. However, there have been no additional chargebacks since the account was closed and unable to process transactions subject to chargeback. I have emailed over a dozen times and they continue to push the date back. Without notice, I am now told I must wait an additional 90 days. Square continues to withhold funds acquired by my business 120 days ago and are legitimate and valid charges.

Monthly for the past six ( 6 ) months, on the XXXX of every month backward from and including XX/XX/2021, Square ( also called " XXXX '' ) payment processing service continues using my debit card/XXXX account numbers to take payments for canceled services. As attached emails, documents, and bank screenshots show, every attempt, by me and by XXXX XXXX branch of XXXX XXXX XXXX, to stop these thefts has failed. Furthermore, that every contact with Square follows an identical profile strongly suggests that we have not been dealing with actual human beings at all, but instead with an AI ( artificial intelligence ) computer program that was designed to perpetuate fraud by imitating humans, thus deceptively leading complainants to believe that their complaints are being addressed in good faith. This problem is so widespread that the US/FTC recently issued a ruling to cope with it.

In or around XX/XX/XXXX of 2021, I logged into my CashApp account to retrieve a deposit but was told that I'd need to order a Cash Card to continue. I went and placed an order and was met with the message : an unexpected error has occurred. Please try again later. I went ahead and tried again and got the same message. I submitted a contact request the following day, and within 48 hours, they informed me that they could not tell me the exact reason why my Cash Card order could not be placed and that I'd have to wait 14 days. Last week, I attempted to order my Cash Card again but was met with the same result, so I contacted CashApp support and received the same response. This time, though, I ioffered to provide supporting identification documents because I believe that is what's keeping them from completing the order or disclosing information about why my order couldn't be placed.

On XX/XX/2020 I was notified by Cashapp Visa debit that a purchase in the amount of XXXX was made with XXXX XXXX at XXXX. At XXXX I immediately went on the Cashapp app and submitted that the purchase was not made by me and it was a fraudulent transaction. I also submitted that the card was stolen and used for the purchase with XXXX XXXX. At XXXX I called XXXX merchant services and had the card cancelled so that no other purchases were made. I then contacted XXXX XXXX and notified them that my card was used to make a purchase and that I did not authorize the charge. XXXX XXXX was very helpful and immediately cancelled the pending purchase and told me it would take between two to three business days to refund the money back to my Cashapp Visa debit card. To this day I still have not received my money back nor is Cashapp doing anything to put the refunded money back into my account.

On XX/XX/2020 a customer made a purchase in the amount of {$7400.00} for no explained reason Square merchant services has not transferred these funds into my business bank account.At the same time Square has not provided any credible reason as to why this money transfer has not transpired.Square requested documentation which was submitted on XXXX.Even after these documents were submitted Square has failed to move forward with the transfer and has also failed to communicate with me as to the reasoning for the delay of said funds transfer. I have made multiple attempts to contact Square to get an understanding of what's going on with the funds transfer and the closure of the account. I provide Square with access and Log-in information to my account to verify my account through their system.I believe this to be unusual practices with no justifiable reason for the holding of funds.

This complaint is against CashApp. My non-profit organization has an account that we were attempting to access after a sponsor transferred money into our account. CashApp requested new verification using a front/back scan of a driver 's license which do not work. After multiple failed attempts to scan the back of the license, we sent an email to CashApp Support on XX/XX/XXXX. They provided instructions for us to follow to reverify the account which we followed. However, we later received an email stating that we were being transferred to another department who could help further. We have followed up again on multiple occasions ( XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX ) via email and XXXX. NO ONE has called me yet from customer service! I now think that there is fraud involved as we can not access the account to cashout the {$1000.00} that is in the account.

Cashapp. I accidentally sent XXXX to two people in stead of one. I requested a refund like this app told me too but the receiver did not have access to his account anymore. I contacted cashapp support and basically was told that they can not cancel the payment even though it had not been accepted or received I litteraly tried for hours to reach someone they asked for Info such as who was the intended recipient and a bunch of info about him but said sorry next time verify who you send money to.. well obviously my phone was in my purse and it just added this person by mistake. I dknt understand why it couldnt be canceled immediately the other person didnt even accept the payment. Also when you try to reach support they say its outside of business hours all the time I called and it just hangs up chat they dont respond for hours and when I finally see they did they are gone again

Someone fraudulently got a hold of my debit card and used CashApp to withdraw funds over 200.00 and overdrew my account. My bank cancelled the card, issued me a new one, investigated and refunded the money and reversed the overdraft fees. I have NEVER EVER USED CashApp and recently I received a CashApp debit card with the account $ XXXX ( my name and they have my address ) in the mail to activate. The 800 number does not connect you to a live person to have this account closed and the only way you can contact them is if you actually have an account and you can email them. I used my relatives account to email them and I have not received a response. I just want the fraudulent account cancelled as I have never opened one so that no one can do this to me again. There should be a way to contact these people in the event of fraud but is simply no way if you don't have an account!

On XXXX I asked cashapp to remove any phone number that wasnt my own from my account. In the process the removed and blocked my number also so I am not able to gain access to my account with literally all of my money in it. My car payment is late now and Im fearing my kids XXXX will be in jeopardy. No one will resolve the situation, I have verified my identity and verified that the account is mine but still continue to be told I cant gain access. They had me open a new account and stated they would transfer my funds to my new account but have yet to do so. I requested my account be closed all together and just mail me my remaining funds, or send my direct deposit and other sources of incomes back to my employer. No one will help me and no one will tell me what process I need to go through to get this resolved. It has been ongoing for almost a week now and is so devastating.

The Cash App keeps claiming that the transfer of {$50.00} out of the app to my XXXX Checking account was declined by XXXX XXXX. I tried to do this transaction three times, XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX, and XXXX. When I contacted XXXX XXXX they stated that they had not declined any transactions. I have a secure message from XXXX dated XX/XX/XXXX stating that no transactions were declined by XXXX. I will enclose that in this complaint. ON Friday XX/XX/XXXX XXXX Cash App email support claimed that my funds were transferred to my debit card which I don't understand. I was sending my funds to my checking account, not a debit card. On the Cash app the banking information is correct for my checking account. Two days later the funds are not transmitted, and the app states it is declined. I have contacted cash app email support but now they no longer respond to my requests to resolve this.

I used the cash app as my sole bank. K thought going all digital would be much easier, boy was I wrong. I get my paycheck direct deposited into an account. After I got a new number I was no longer able to get into my old account. I emailed the company a total of 6 times in the past 6 days. They asked from some information regarding both accounts and i gave them what they asked. They kept telling me " Unfortunately, some of the information provided does not match what we have in our system. For security reasons, we are unable to merge these two accounts at this time. '' They won't give me any insight to what the discrepancy is. My last check was {$370.00} and I was going to use it for rent. I got kicked out of the place I was in and was forced to move in with a friend. Cash app doesn't have any humans to talk to, and they their automated messages aren't very helpful.

I received a CashApp debit Visa card in the mail. I did not request this card. I found a phone number for CashApp but it is strictly an automated system. There is no real person available and no way that I could find to tell them about a fraudulent use of my information. Through an online search I found that XXXX XXXX is often the bank source. I called the bank. They told me to call Cash App. I found another number for the bank and again was told to call Cash App. I pointed out that they issued credit of some kind since there was an account number on the card. They took that information but that's it. I'm am not really sure they canceled the account. In the past 5 months I have had several attempts to use my identity to open credit cards with my information. I was told by XXXX that since it is a debit card, it doesn't not go through the credit reporting services.

I have been getting fees for every time I would have friends or family send me money thru cash app. I thought it was what they charged but then my wife showed me on her account she never gets charged anything so I looked more into it. I've paid over XXXX $ in fees over the past year because I have a business account, I don't know why I have a business account but cash app says it can only be done from the app and that I chose a business account. Well I didn't mean to. Business accounts are charged 2.75 % for any money received. So I contact cash app all ask them what's up and they agreed that it was probably a mistake and said they would reimburse fees but only 7days back from the time I contacted about fees. Basically everything past the 7days it my mistake for not catching all the fees I was paying sooner and I'm stuck with the fees. There crooks, please help!

The transactions were fraudulent and I disputed the transactions on XX/XX/2022. I also disputed the transactions with my bank and my bank stated that Cash App is responsible for the fraudulent claims. Because of this matter I have went to the authorities to have this issue rectified. Law enforcement has instructed me to try to dispute the transactions again. I did dispute the transactions again on XX/XX/2022. Cash App again, denied my claims. I have proof/evidence of my account being used fraudulently, though this matter can not be resolved with my bank until Cash App returns the funds to my Cash App account so that the funds can be given back to my financial institution I'm which the money is owed.

I filed a complaint with both Cash app and XXXX XXXX XXXX.

I was told by XXXX XXXX XXXX ( XX/XX/XXXX ) they would not be able to refund me the {$600.00} because Cash app provided information stating I use Cash app frequently. I know for a fact I did not send {$600.00} to the unknown person ( fraud ) and I do not know the unknown person ( fraud ). I want my stolen {$600.00} back in my account because it was fraud, someone did hack into my Cash app account, and I did not send the unknown person {$600.00}.

On or about XX/XX/XXXX, I bought {$100.00} worth of bitcoin on cashapp. I want to make a withdrawal. They need ID which is fine. I scanned my DL and they said it needs to be a US ID. Oregon is in the US. They did, within the last year, change the design of our DL. I contacted their support ( which is only by email ) they gave me an IRL to upload pictures of my ID and a selfie of me holding it. I did this. Several days later I contacted them to see if they have received it. The email sent me through the same process. I dont think real people are answering the emails. So I tried a couple more times and got the same canned reply. On XX/XX/XXXX I received an email they are closing my complaint because they hadnt heard from me. Now they wont respond at all. I called the bank which they work with. They said they dont deal with cashapp issues. Now I am contacting you

I had a fraudulent charge from my checking account. It shows as a cash app debit app in the amount of {$2300.00} at XXXX on XX/XX/2020 ( credit union time XXXX ). My bank states that because they are 3rd party app Visa takes zero liability. I dont know who the person is, they are not in my contacts. They dont even show up in my cash app transaction history. There were 2 attempts at chargers that fraud protection caught and cancelled but this transaction was not seen or recognized by Visa fraud protection. Please help!! Ive had no success at reaching cash app. Can not find an email address and all the support numbers and directionS given to reach support lead to a dead end. I know other people have been victimized as Im hearing all of the stories. Is there any way you can help me get in contact with cash app to dispute this charge and request to be reimbursed.

XX/XX/XXXX - Closed CashApp account, visa card ending XXXX. XX/XX/XXXX - XXXX sent refund to CashApp account with the visa card ending XXXX. Contacted XXXX to inform that CashApp account was closed. XXXX said they can not cancel the refund to reissue to another form of payment and to contact CashApp to retrieve the funds. XX/XX/XXXX - emailed CashApp customer support to request access to closed account so that I may retrieve funds refunded by XXXX or request CashApp send me a check for the funds. XX/XX/XXXX - emailed CashApp customer support & Square, Inc. customer support. XX/XX/XXXX - XX/XX/XXXX - Have emailed CashApp customer support multiple times. They keep sending me the same auto-reply email asking the same questions about the closed account and nothing has moved forward. There is no other way to contact CashApp customer support besides email.

Okay this complaint is with Cash App or better known as Square , INC. I brought some tickets with my debit card from XXXX XXXX. When i got to the gate of XXXX XXXX there was a mishap and we had to go to the customer service desk. When i gave them the confirmation number they asked for photo ID but i lost it in the uber coming to the park. So to make things worse the supervisor said he COUNLD NOT honor the tickets and agreed to refund the full payment to the cash app card that i brought them with. Well unbeknownst to me cash app froze my card and closed my account. I tried talking to them about this for more than 3 weeks, NO ANSWER ... i called XXXX XXXX and they CONFIRMED THAT THEY SENT THE REFUND TO THE CARD ON FILE. So im just trying to get my refund for the tickets. The total of the tickets was {$250.00}. All i want is my money back i did nothing wrong

On XX/XX/2021, I sent an instant transfer to my debt card. The transaction was successful but the money never made it into my account. After 3 days, my bank was able to verify the funds were successfully transferred but I exceeded the daily and monthly limit of the transfer. Mastercard also was required to hold onto the funds for 8 business days. On XX/XX/2021 my bank released my money back to cash app as a charge back ACH. I was given the reference number and trace number to provide to cash app. It's now XX/XX/XXXX and I still have not received my funds back in the amount of {$2500.00}. Cash app will not take my information of the reference and trace numbers to help me locate my funds. I'm being told by 1 Department they are still in progress of working on it and they will email if they need any additional information. To this point nothing has been done.

A transaction was performed through Cash app XX/XX/2020 without my authorization for a debit of {$85.00} to an individual for services,. The services were not performed and i requested a refund back through the individual just to have them deny the refund. I reached out to cash app to resolve they did not they advise go to there website. I reached out to my XXXX bank to report it they replaced my card as a resolution. i still have not received a refund and i lost {$85.00}. As a consumer it seems i have no rights and individuals can use a 3rd party like cash app to scam people out of money. I have spoken with a supervisor at XXXX and he simply advised me i am not protected by 3rd party transaction even though its my money. I have been with XXXX for 25 yrs and can not believe there is no protection for there customers from 3rd party scams involving Cash App

This is concerning my Cash App account. I have ( 2 ) transactions of " cash out '' one dating from XX/XX/XXXX for {$480.00} and the second one dating from {$200.00} on XX/XX/XXXX. When checking my bank account a few days ago I saw that these were never deposited into my bank account. I originally had a chase account listed and made deposits into them in the past. Now there is some mysterious bank account with a routing number XXXX and account number XXXX, which does not belong to me. How did this bank account get into to my cashapp account? After noticing this issue I checked my wife Cashapp account and her 's also list some mysterious bank account with the same routing number and account number XXXX. I contacted Cash App over two days ago and they have been unresponsive with basically copy and paste replies. They still have not addressed these issues.

Hello, my name is XXXX XXXX and I have an account with Cash App that I use to collect funds from time to time. I have by bank account linked to it to withdraw and send money. A few weeks ago I lost my phone and have been unable to access the account. At the direction of Cash App I created a new account so they could linked it and provided them the details of the accounts in question. They responded and asked for pics of my ID and myself holding it which I sent as well. Since then they have been entirely unresponsive and I have a significant ( to me ) amount of money locked up in the old account. The account I can no longer access is XXXX XXXX and the new account I created at their request is XXXX XXXX They are holding my money hostage and provided no assistance. There is not even a phone number I can contact them with. Please help me. Thanks!

My name is XXXX XXXX. I have a small clothing shop which I use my house as an office and I use square to process payment for my customers. Last year, customer made payment of over {$3000.00} and I was able to ship her products to her and she received it, but square has not released my funds to my bank account. I contacted square since last year to get this resolved but they have nut emailed me back. XXXX said they needed documents including my ID and my business name registration certificate. I sent them my ID and told them that my business is a shop and I haven't registered with certificate. During this pandemic, I manage my shop to get paid and feed myself. XXXX all stolen {$3000.00} of my funds. I want square to deposit my funds in my bank account or tell me when they will deposit it rather than ignoring me with my hard earned money.

My complaint is with Cashapp. I have an amount of {$7400.00} on my Cashapp account. Cashapp however locked my account because I logged into my account on a different device. After sending several emails they finally replied and said I would have to wait for about 45 days before I can have access to my account. Within those few days I had an email that both my mobile number and email has been unlinked from account leaving me with no access to my account. It has been 45 days already and I still dont have any access to my account or my money. I have emailed them several times and even XXXX on their support page on XXXX but I however don't get a response at all or get the same automated response. Right now I believe cashapp is trying to scam me and keep my money. I have sent several emails and nobody is responding to me. I just want to get my money

Recently after several withdrawal requests for {$1000.00} - {$2000.00} were submitted by me, and denied from my bank 's ATM XXXX Using MY CashApp card ) I sent Square / CashApp an inquiry for increased withdrawal limits. This option was not available. A {$500.00} limit is INSUFFICIENT. Several friends have cashapp and are unrestricted on their withdraw limits. I have NO IDEA why those requests could be denied - since I hadn't used the card for any large payouts, or taken ANY money for myself - and there was still around {$6000.00} on the cashapp card. CashApp responded to my 'card inquiry stating that it was due to the limit on the bank 's ATM macine - but today (XX/XX/XXXX ) I went and asked the teller directly to use the card and take the cash from the bank drawer, and she stated she could not. The CashApp was blocking her access to the funds.

I have received TWO Visa Debit Cards from Square , Inc. Neither card was requested. The first card arrived XXXX XX/XX/2021. I then contacted Square at XXXX to complain. Not only was the response unsatisfactory, but they sent a second Visa Debit Card ( arrived XXXX XX/XX/2021 ). It is my belief this is bank fraud : ( 1 ) I never requested these Visa Debit Cards, and ( 2 ) There is no evidence for identity theft. It is my belief that banks and financial institutions are preying upon financially desperate people by sending them unsolicited bank cards, then sticking those people with debt and fees. This is the second complaint filed with the CFPB ( both my husband and I received unsolicited Visa Debit Cards from XXXX XXXX last month ). I ask the CFPB to investigate this as a potential class action issue ( many people being victims of bank fraud ).

I use cash app to load my unemployment benefits on XX/XX/XXXX I was unable to use my card at the atm. I reached out to cash app and was not helped with this. I put in a report with your agency and Cash app support reached out to me and let me know there seemed to be a issue with my personal information and my unemployment information and that I needed to send in proof that everything belonged to me. I sent out this information two weeks ago and haven't heard from Cash App since. Nothing confirming they received the information and they are working on it. I have been without access to my funds for almost a month now. The unemployment that was issued to the account is still frozen. There company doesn't have any live person to speak to this is frustrating and depressing. I have been receiving deposit prior to this issue before with no problem.

On XX/XX/2020, I attempted to direct deposit {$15000.00} into my Cash App account. This money was sent from my account with XXXX. However, without notifying me, my Cash App deposit account had been closed. Therefore, the funds were rejected. I expected to see my money return to my XXXX account but it never did. This money has been missing ever since. I talked with Cash Support, and they were able to provide me with a PDF that shows that XXXX did indeed attempt to deposit the funds. I've attached this document. Some months ago, I actually filed another complaint against XXXX, thinking that they were at fault. XXXX confirmed that they do not have the funds. I've attached XXXX 's response. I shared this information with Cash Support, but they would not help me. Additionally I checked the unclaimed funds service but did not find anything.

On XX/XX/XXXX an unauthorized payment for {$3000.00} was made from My cash app account to another unknown cash app account. I immediately reported as fraudulent to cash app as well as reporting an incident that happened 5 days before where I received notice that My pin requirement setting was turned off. I did not do this and when I checked app settings it was not turned off but to be safe I changed My pin thru the app and toggled setting off then immediately back on. I submitted to them the supporting documentation as well. The actions and treatment from support is blatantly avoiding resolution to the point I suspect to perpetuate the internal fraud committed when the money was stolen from my account. My account was completely secure on my side so why is cash app is unwilling to prove the promise of encryption was fulfilled on their side?

I downloaded the app on XX/XX/XXXX under these pretenses with the goal of claiming XXXX XXXX After I downloaded the app and typed in the code, instead of giving me XXXX $ the app displayed the text, " Get {$15.00} when you link a new bank account or activate a Cash Card ( people under XXXX only ) and send {$5.00} '' I only learned about the additional requirements to getting XXXX $ AFTER I downloaded the app and typed in the code, and not DURING the initial advertisement.

I have tried to cancel my accounts via the Cash App website and mobile site. I get an error message each time and the accounts continue to stay active. I have emailed multiple times requesting that the accounts be removed. I provide my name, business name, account names, and associated phone numbers but they keep asking me for information that I no longer have which is the debit card number that is linked to the account. Each time I respond to them that I no longer have the old debit card info, I get a " stock answer '' response asking me for the same information all over again. Each response is from a different agent name. When I call to speak with someone the recording says that they are busy and not taking calls so please us the app. They give me the option to press " 1 '' to have someone call me back but no one ever calls back.

I've had it with square! They literally go out of their way to provide no service of any kind. There's no immediate or live super by phone. It's almost impossible to navigate help on the app and what's finally possible to, they come up with excuses as to why they don't want to help. They used an excuse of a time lapse as to why they'd not help, sighting a 60 day rule which was embedded into their impossibly lengthy read terms and conditions, knowing that 99.99 % neither have the time nor energy or legal knowledge to decipher their abandonment of responsibility masquerading as items of use. I informed of a merchant dispute I have with XXXX in which my items were never delivered, and they refused to help. I want my money now! Shame on you for being yet another thieving corporations stealing from the very people you're supposed to serve.

I direct deposited some money onto my cashapp account. In order to send to family members who are affected by covid 19 and are struggling. They then wouldnt let me send money stating my account has been temporarily locked for 24 hours. I waited the next day and it said the same thing. The next day I tried to link my bank card to my cashapp to retrieve my money because my family are in need. And it wouldnt let me stating my account is temporarily locked for 24 hours. I then emailed them and no response. The next day I emailed them again to unlock my account and nothing. I then tried to go to the bank to pull out my money and it wouldnt let me. So basically my funds are sitting there frozen. I have family members who depend on me I dont have time for this. My account has been locked for three days. I emailed them 4 times and no reply.

I used my cashapp card at an ATM one morning trying to take out {$200.00}. My card was declined and the money was still taken from my account. I tried again to take out {$200.00} and it declined me again but STILL took the money from my account. I contacted cashapp, then waited XXXX business days and then contacted cashapp again to dispute the transaction. They responded only one time saying they would file a claim for this transaction and then days later they closed my cashapp account and stopped responding to all of my emails. In their Terms of service it says they will return the money filed in your claim until it is resolved. I emailed them again and a week later they refunded me {$200.00} and said they are unable to help me with the remaining {$200.00} and I have been emailing them everyday since and have received no response.

I received a cash app visa debit card I did not apply for. I tried to call Cash app and their XXXX the company did not reply. I've already reported fraud on another account. I'm frustrated that these companies just allow people to apply and send visa debit cards for them to scam other people in innocent peoples names. I placed a fraud alert with all 3 credit agencies, so they clearly used my social and didn't adhere to the alert. I want them to delete this account immediately. I want them to send me confirmation it's been deleted. This is fraud!!! I also think some sort of class action lawsuit should be filed on all companies allowing this to happen. They are supporting scamming and should be held accountable. Please please file this complaint with Cash App/ Square and ask them to delete NOW and notify me it's been done. Thank you

Cash App has a boost offer where if you receive {$300.00} in direct deposits from your employer you are supposed to receive {$30.00} off any purchase you receive over {$30.00}. I signed up for direct deposit using the information provided to me by cash app and on XX/XX/XXXX my employer issued my direct deposit payment to Cash App for my salary. Cash App held the deposit for a few days and ultimately returned it to my employer. I feel I should be entitled to the {$30.00} offered through the promotion since I used the information that was provided to me by Cash App. I have submitted documentation to show the setup of the account in our payroll system, I have sent copies of my paystub showing the deposit, I have sent the notice I received from the payroll specialist at work but they refuse to honor the promotion they have offered.

Cashapp/ Square Inc. closed down my account! They will not allow me to return my remaining balance in the app back to my bank. I have my bank XXXX linked to transfer the remaining funds but on the end of Cashapp/ Square, Inc. they wouldn't even lift a finger to help. Everything is automated responses and there is literally no actual person to contact to even explain the situation. At this point all I can do is stare at the number ( {$1800.00} ) on the screen. I just want my money back it's unfair that Cashapp/ Square, XXXXnc. feels it's okay to reprimand me and pigeon hold the funds on my balance. At this point I consider this theft, I want to try everything possible before I take legal action involving a lawyer and judge. Unfortunately my hands are very close to being forced down that direction, if I can not receive any help.

I am a victim of fraud. On XX/XX/2020, someone accessed my Cash App account without my knowledge or consent. They sent funds from my account to another Cash App account " XXXX XXXX '' at XXXX XXXX in the amount of {$1500.00}. This was my entire balance. I do not know the account owner " XXXX XXXX ''. I have never sent funds or recived funds from this account holder. I requested a refund from the account holder, however, the account user did not respond. Cash App has a phone number, however, it states representatives are unavailable. I sent an email to Cash App but did not receive a response. I canceled my Cash App card and have a new account but have yet to receive my balance back from Cash App. It is very difficult to contact anyone at Cash App. I attach hereto, a copy of my Federal Trade Commission IdentityTheft Report.

I sent my daughter {$200.00} via Cash App because she was stranded in XXXX during COVID-19. Initially, it was flagged as fraud by my bank. The bank said to try it again in 5 minutes. I resent {$200.00} in 5 minutes, and Cash App deducted BOTH payments. However, my daughter never received the payments. I have screen shots of my XXXX account, showing they took both payments out, as well as a screen shot of my daughter 's Cash App transactions, that show she never received it. Cash App does not have a phone number, in fact due to COVID, the only way to contact them is through the investor link. The rep told me she received the money. Then he said to have her contact them. She contacted them, and they told her to have me contact them. They literally took their XXXX page down, so I suspect I am not the only one with this problem.

On XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX Ads fraudulently debited approximately {$1500.00} from my Cashapp account. I have on numerous occasions filed a complaint with cashapp regarding this matter to no avail. Cashapp is not responsive to this matter, it has been 5 days since this incident happened and still has yet to be resolved. * Under UCC 4-214, issued XXXX, I invoke my right to chargeback and refund this transaction. Furthermore, I would like to like to request a temporary credit if the dispute in question takes significant time to investigate. The Reason for this Dispute is Fraud I do not recognize this transaction and have never authorized it. Pursuant to VISA Chargeback Code 10.4, I am politely requesting to dispute this charge and the issuance of a full credit to my account. I have attached additional details below on this matter.

XX/XX/XXXX my cashapp account had got locked for " suspicious activity " when I tried to transfer my funds to my bank as usual.

Contacted the support team there and got my issue solved asap. When I went to withdraw my funds a second time my account got locked again for no reason contacted the support team and never got anymore help beyond this point.

Please see below documents to show when Cashapp aka Square took my money and evidence it was supposed to be refunded but was never refunded. I have contact support several times and even put a complaint in with the XXXX but was told by XXXX that I need to file a complaint with your company for enforcement of my refund. I have attached images of when the transaction occurred and the message stating when it will be refunded but was not. I also have a quarter bank statement that shows the funds not being credit but debited from my bank account. The debit used to make the transaction has been closed but my Cashapp account is very active the funds should be been returned to my Cashapp account or bank account and there have received the funds. 2 different transactions done in the same day but cant seem to get the issue resolved.

Made several deposits through XXXX and XXXX XXXX onto my cash app card to have money on my cash app prepaid card to pay my bills. After depositing funds woke up to login to my cash app account and my cashtag and user information no longer existed. I just disappeared like I never existed. Since I couldnt login to my cash app account I could submit complaint under my cashtag or user name. So I had to create new cash app account with new cash tag name to file complaint on my mystery missing account. I sent several emails and complaints to cash app with proof of my deposits, debitcard with cash app, copy drivers license and etc. Proving this was my cash app account and asking to please help me regain access to my funds. They said they couldnt this was at the beginning of XX/XX/2021. Still no resolution to my ripped off funds.

On XX/XX/2019 cash app allowed somebody to dispute charges with them that were fraudulent. Without further investigation on my end Cash app took the disputed funds out of my personal account, and never returned any of me emails I sent out through the app. I also disputed the fund with the my bank, and they couldn't help because of the type of platform cash app was on. They also stated since I had my card on the site I authorized the charge. I contacted Cash app on on XX/XX/19,XX/XX/XX/XX/19, and XX/XX/19. They replied one telling me " Ive passed your case along to a member of our Account Services Team who can help you further. You should hear back shortly. '' but I never heard back ever since. I think this is very unprofessional, it's left me in a deficit, and I will never promote this company again. This is so unethical.

{$130.00} in total have been stolen from my account. From unauthorized users on Cash App and they also closed out my account with money and XXXX on it as well. On XX/XX/XXXX ( my birthday ), two unauthorized transactions happened : $ XXXX : {$100.00} $ XXXX : {$2.00} $ XXXX ; {$18.00} and {$12.00}. Cash App avoided answering me and even informed me that other people were on my account when they were the only ones who have had my information. Its been a month, Ive sent screenshots of my information being stolen and everything. I have messages informing me that someone unauthorized was in my account when Ive never given anyone my information, they even changed my information and took off my phone number from the account. I have a XXXX year old and need to take care of her. That {$130.00} is not something that I can spare.

I have a XXXX XXXX XXXX credit card and have no issues with it. My problem is with Square, the payment processor. Square has an automatic process that links an email to a credit card and then automatically sends out receipts to that email. The consumer 1 ) can not change the email - only the person at the email address can do that and if the receipt is being emailed to the wrong person then that is a problem and 2 ) Square has absolutely zero customer support for anyone other than a merchant. You can not call them or email them without a merchant account. When a charge is made using my XXXX card at a Square merchant POS terminal, the incorrect email shows at the bottom of the receipt, but the customer can not change it. This is a breach of privacy as well as extremely frustrating. I literally have nowhere else to turn.

I was sent {$1000.00} from my attorney using Cash App. I never heard of it and used it first time. This app collects way too much information than needed. Worst thing - it's only mobile. Not at all easy or good compared to XXXX or XXXX. Moreover there is absolutely no human being available to deal with. It keeps on redirecting to phone or email but there is no human being. There is a phone # XXXX but no human being there also. This app is pretending to work with person to person money transfer without each other knowing each other 's account number etc ... So it ask the recipient to provide Debit card # with all the details - expiration date, zip code etc ... But even after that - there is no idea where the money is went? And there is no human being hired by this cheap folks in XXXX from this company called Square.

On XX/XX/ I requested standard monthly banking statement including the following first and last name, the account number associated with the checking account. It was explained to be by the SQUARE Representative that the company does not provide such documentation. Considering I pay a banking fees associated with the service, it is not clear to me why SQUARE INC. would not be able to provide consumers with documented proof of being a legitimate checking account holder. Not having a bank statement has put a halt on my ability to conduct other business in other areas. Please help.

Hi : I attempted to make a purchase with XXXX on XX/XX/2020. Cash app declined the debit at first and then processed it on XX/XX/2020. Then XXXX cancelled the reservation. However, it was after the time, so they were obligated to pay for the difference in me finding another place. Cash App just took XXXX out of my account claiming they reverse a claim for XXXX. I did not file a claim concerning a XXXX charge because I worked things out with them. They provided a refund for the amount they owed me and now this money was therefore fraudulently taken from my account. I have sent numerous e-mails and messages asking for a call to discuss this mater and I keep getting e-mails with in accurate information. I am requesting the XXXX is placed back into my account immediately. Thank you for your assistance in this matter

One amount was for 3000, other for 2800. My contractors never got paid and square took the money out of my account and never sent me an email to confirm anything. 4 months later after too many calls and emails they still have never responded nor returned the money. Even after their 60day hold policy for unsuitable businesses as they say. We are legit company and have everything up to date. We have followed up via phone and email and nothing yet has been resolved. Customer service suggested to file fraud against my bank but they told my bank that I approved this charged so my bank closed the case. Please resolve my case.

I used Cash App to transfer {$250.00} to another individual. The {$250.00} was debited from my bank account but he has been unable to access it so it remains in limbo. He can't get access to his Cash App account because access requires providing the number of the debit card that was used to open the account. The debit card he used was replaced some time ago and there is no way to know the number on it. Every time he has tried to access his account the process has ended with this question about the debit card number. He has contacted Cash App support and answered all the questions asked but the support bot can not help him. We have been asking for help for two weeks but it is impossible to get the attention of a person. When I submitted as support request, the bot told me to have the recipient contact support.

During the period of my housing instability. I had fallen behind on phone payments leaving me unable to recover any and all accounts registered with that number.

XXXX has refused to accept any and all forms of identification including social security card, state id, birth certificate, bank statements, XXXX identity theft forms, etc. And refuses to cancel payment and issue a refund to my mother. This has been ongoing for 4 months and they ultimately have stopped responding to calls messages and emails.

I am a license XXXX XXXX agent in the state of Alabama. On XX/XX/2021 I took a rent payment via the app Cash App for XXXX XXXX and XXXX dollars. Approximately ninety days later my tenant filed a dispute with her bank over the charge. I can easily prove it is a valid charge. Here is the issue. Because the charge was through Cash App, the bank does not know who actually received the money and when I asked Cash App for the banks information Cash App refused to provide it. Because of this : 1 ) The bank can not properly investigate the disputed payment. 2 ) I can not contact the bank to provide information about the disputed amount. Cash App advice is too me was to contact the sender directly. With Cash App effectively giving her a default judgement from her bank, she has no reason to cooperate.

On tuesday XX/XX/XXXX I was scammed and the scammer had me open a Cash App account and send money to an unknown party. As soon as I realized what happened I called Cash App. Their customer service number refers you to their online support app. I sent information in the support app who then referred me to an email support group. For two days I went back and forth with them and finally they said they would not assist me and to report it to the police. Every company should have a phone number you can call to report fraud and if they had worked me when I reported it the transaction could have been stopped or reversed. I am also working with my bank but I feel that Cash App should be investigated for poor consumer practices and lack of consumer response. I would advise anyone who uses this APP not to.

Which makes 0 sense because it wouldnt allow me to load the debit card onto the account or cash out to it!

I have a cashapp account and collected hundreds of dollars between a private transaction. I have not been able to access the account due to a change of personal contact information. When you attempt to call. They redirect you to app.support. when you attempt to seek help on the app, they redirect you to phone. It's a perpetual state of a runaround. I need access to my funds and can not due to a simple change in a phone number. I have attempted to contact them and only receive a voice mail and magically no call. And it appears these are deceptive practices with no way to reset passwords or account information. I have been unable to communicate with anyone at cashapp. And further I have not received any funds. This is theft, consumer negligence and poor practices that must be regulated further.

On XX/XX/21 I noticed someone had hacked into my cash app & attempted to send themselves {$120.00}. It wasn't available in my account or my cash app balance so it didn't take any money out this time. I immediately sent cash app an email request to dispute this. Cash app will warn you NOT to block the individual until you get a resolution from them. This process takes 10 business days. 8 days later on XX/XX/21 ( mid investigation ) the same person sent themselves {$330.00} from my account. This caused me not to be able to pay my rent on time, my account is currently still in overdraft. I've sent them multiple emails as well as tried reaching them via twitter & they give you the same response of waiting 10 days & then stop responding. No one has refunded me yet or reached out with any updates.

Hello- my name is XXXX XXXX and Ive been attempting to get a replacement cash app card for Cash App quite some time in order to receive the stimulus payment. Am discovering that since XXXX my brother XXXX XXXX in conjunction with a friend on XXXX XXXX and number of other people have been accessing my account and basically stealing any funds that are due my way. I close the account and reopen but they have it direct deposit linked to a card which does not belong to me. They have done this with countless other companies as well, then phone in to say Im the one doing fraud which is false. Am trying to clear my name but its been difficult when 10-20 people are calling in or emailing to lie about me at once versus my one phone call or email at a time which I can send in.. thank you for your time.

I filed a previous complaint against this company with CFPB. I have been attempting to withdraw my funds since XX/XX/XXXX but cashapp will not let me access them. They closed my account XX/XX/XXXX and the system blocks all my attempts to recover my money. CFPB got a response from " XXXX XXXX '' of the company telling me to sell my XXXX ( I had already done so ) and cash out with a new bank account. The system will not allow me to link a bank account or debit card and blocks my cash out. CFPB closed my complaint but I still can't get my funds. I found a phone number for help XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX ) and spoke with XXXX who told me she couldn't help me, that I should contact cashapp support through the app. I have done this dozens of times with no response.

On XX/XX/XXXX, my cash app debit card number was used in various parts of the world most transactions declined, however one transaction for {$120.00} was successful in XXXX. I immediately contacted Cash App support that same day on XX/XX/XXXX. I was told it could take 45 days in to be on the lookout from customer service reaching out via email for more information. None of that has happened since, and I still have not received my money that the scammers stole from my account. I have contacted Cash App twice since then, today XX/XX/2022, being the latest and every time I reach out to customer service, they say it will take 45 more days and that I will receive an email and maybe I should double check my email next time. This application is fraudulent and does not protect users by any means.

On XX/XX/XXXX my card was charged XXXX at XXXX XXXX of XXXX SC. So I contacted them and was told that my money should be released in a couple days depending on my bank. On XX/XX/XXXX I made a dispute to cash app about the charge. They sent me an email stating that it was just a pre authorization and it will be released in 14 days unless I provide information that could speed up the process. On XX/XX/XXXX I contact XXXX XXXX asking for that information. The manager emailed me a bill statement for the charge in question with a zero balance. I emailed the information to cash app and they are still holding my money, and told me it would be an additional six days. Instead of the money being released in 14 days XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX they're telling me that I have to wait until XXXX XX/XX/XXXX )

A Cash App account was opened using my name, address and other identifying information. On XX/XX/2020 there were three ( 3 ) separate payments from my XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX, to this fraudulent Cash App account in the amounts of {$19.00}, {$19.00}, and {$9.00} ( totaling {$49.00} ). I called my bank to flag these transactions as fraudulent. On XX/XX/2020 a Visa debit card for the Cash App account was shipped to my address. I have attempted to contact Cash App, and its ' affiliates, Square and XXXX XXXX, to inquire how I can close this account or flag it. None of these companies provide contact information to speak with a representative. The only way to contact is via your Cash App account ( which I do not have, one was opened fraudulently ) or via Social Media ( highly questionable ).

On XX/XX/2020 at XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX, and XXXX XXXX three payments of the amount of {$71.00}, {$210.00}, and {$250.00} were made at XXXX XXXX. These purchases were unauthorized as I didn't complete these transactions. The card that was used was my Cash App card. Cash App has NO live representatives and I've sent them multiple emails as this is the only way I'm able to contact them. I have still heard absolutely nothing from them as it seems they aren't doing anything to help resolve my issue. I've also contacted the merchant and they have claimed they're unable to do anything for me. I've also filed a police report. This is extremely frustrating as a total of {$530.00} has been taken from me and CASH APP refuses and doesn't show any interest to help me and contact me to move forward.

Your options for the problem do not provide the actual issue. Square Inc who owns Cash App has not be able to provide a PIN # FOR MONTHS. One of primary issues, is all the communications to and from is via email. This is not proper customer service and is unacceptable. At lease allow their agents to call the consumer back instead of sending an email. As the email may not answer and respond back that may take another 2-3 business days in addition to the original 2-3 business days originally. Therefore, this back and forth could take about 2-3 weeks. To get an answer to an issue is not the best customer service a business can provide. I have another issue with their verification service PLAID. I need manual intervention to help get my account set up but I no one has been able to help me.

My transaction was declined. I had more than ten ( 10 ) times the purchase amount in the account at that time. I have not been able to use any of my assets associated with this card, which effectively such assets are the target of fraud by Square Inc .

On XX/XX/XXXX I used this company cash app to send money, {$2200.00} in fact, to someone online to purchase items from this website called XXXX. It's like a XXXX. Well after I sent the money the person never sent the good, he blocked my phone number and blocked me from exchanging money on cash app. I emailed cash app every day for help and to ask for a refund for almost a week. They said there is nothing they can do ask him for a refund. I informed them that he blocked me after I sent the money and obviously this was fraud. They informed that if they feel there is a reason to look into it then they will. Which they dont. I strongly feel this company is encouraging scammers to use this. I understand I am probably just out of my money but I don't want this to happen to someone else.

Here are the transaction descriptions : 1.SQ*XXXX : {$500.00} 2.CashApp*XXXX : {$500.00} 3.SQ*XXXX : {$500.00} I immediately notified XXXX of my card being used without my permission and was told they couldn't do anything until the transactions posted. It is now 8 days later and the transactions are still pending. I again contacted XXXX, Square and CashApp with all of them essentially blaming the other ones and saying their is nothing they can do. I have been out over {$1500.00} for a WEEK! And I'm being told it will be ANOTHER WEEK before anything can be done. This is absolutely unacceptable.

I submitted a form on XX/XX/2020 outlining my attempts to obtain a {$280.00} for expired Payments to Cash App. I received a call from Cash App. The message said call us concerning your refund. The Cash App person that I spoke with has me input a series of numbers " for verification. '' I stupidly followed his guidance provided him all of my personal information and input a series of numbers. he instructed me to hit pay. I questioned this action and was told it was necessary for " the server '' and to " trust him, no payments '' would be processed and I would receive my refund within 45 min.WHEN ACTUALLY ANOTHER {$900.00}. was processed through mt bank via Cash App to various people that I had no intention or awareness of paying. HOW can they be allowed to lie, steal and cheat.

Square has treated me with unbelievable disregard. I've complained about unauthorized charges made to my account and my emails went unanswered. They don't even have a phone number. There are no documents. There's absolutely nothing to get help from. They're extremely unaccountable and totally Indifferent and reckless with the customer 's money. This is my last attempt to get my money back or I'll have no choice but to sue them for money owed and damages. Enough is enough!!!! Uploaded is picture proof of their indifference and ignorance to my grievances. No phone support, no paper statement, no communication, I hate to cancel cards constantly because I was in fear that someone has my identity or account access because I've had 1000s stolen from me and they couldn't care less.

On XX/XX/20, I sent a Cash App of {$120.00}, to someone that lost their Cash App card. On the very same day, she contacted them regarding the lost card. They explained that the money would be refunded to my bank account within 5, working days. We've made several attempts at resolving this matter, requesting that the money either, be returned to my account or, the receiver. Each time Cash App advised that we did not respond in 3 days, therefore, we'd have to contact them again.Presently, I've been advised, that the money can't be canceled or refunded nor, can the receiver collect the funds because, she lost her card. So far, I'd never received a valid answer to the refunding of my money. Any assistance in this strenuously, frustrating matter would be deeply appreciated. Thanks

Earlier this year I tried to send someone {$150.00} thru ' Cash App. The person was never able to get the money and his bank told him that he couldn't use cash app becuase they have their own " system '' and any such transfer of money using that bank would have to use their app. Numerous attempts have been made to get a refund, but getting back money from Cash App is about as easy as walking on water or bringing the dead back to life!!!. All I've been trying to do for the past 3 months is get a refund. Cash App has made sure to give me the biggest run-around you could imagine, so much that I am forced to think of them as " SCAM APP '', rather than anything else. Aill I want to do at this time is get back my {$150.00}. I am on Social Security and could really use my money.

I complained with the CFPB before, but whoever replied on behalf of CashApp assumed I had received an email already from them. The email should contain instructions on what information CashApp needs from me to unlock my account. Just please help me access my funds.

She then texts you to call the account [ ( XXXX ) XXXX ]. They then tell you the transfer is on the way but you need to pay the transfer fee that is way over the amount Cash App charge ( {$200.00} ). The Cash App accounts involved are $ XXXX and $ XXXX. This happened on XX/XX/2020 at XXXX XXXX EST. I request a refund from the person directly, then I requested a refund back through the CASH APP itself but the refund was declined.

I have submitted requested documents multiple times to this company but they refuse to acknowledge and accept them. I dont know if they are unable to see them or what is happening I was instructed to send " ( i.e. *receipts*, invoices, emails ) that *displays the merchant contact information, transaction date/time, transaction amount, and cancellation details. * '' Which I have provided multiple times and still my complaint is not being filed. At this point I feel there is miscommunication. I have requested my request for a dispute be sent to someone else but nothing has come of my complaint thus far. I just keep literally recieving the same email requesting the same details that i have sent time and time again with no further instruction or filing of my complaint.

I received a debit card from XXXX, issued by XXXXXXXX XXXX It's a business debit card and I do not own a business, nor did I apply for it. I believe that someone opened this account with my name and address, possibly also using my SS number. I already had my identity stolen earlier this year when someone applied for unemployment benefits in my name. From what Square Compliance customer service has told me, the card is prepaid so nothing will affect me. For privacy reasons they won't confirm any other details, but they've assured me that they will close the account and investigate. They mentioned reporting the incident but I doubt if local police could do anything so I'm reporting it here. I still have the debit card but have not used it or activated it myself.

On XX/XX/20, I inadvertently sent {$600.00} to XXXX XXXX via Cash App. Immediately upon realizing what happened, I contacted Cash App to inform them of this error and to request a refund. I was told by the representative on XX/XX/20 that Cash App is unable to cancel or refund payments once sent to the recipient, but was informed I could request my funds back by submitting a refund request. Upon performing this action, XXXX XXXX denied my refund request ( document attached ). As a company, Cash App should have safeguards in place for those who make errors using its system. In addition, I was told " goods and services '' were received in full. However, this is also incorrect - no proof was sent by Cash App to support this erroneous claim ( document attached ).

I was approached on XX/XX/XXXX with the person asking me to send XXXX in order to get started. The amounts began to get bigger and bigger as I thought I would see my return. I will provide the amounts in the attached documents. Each time I was about to get paid there was another problem in the way.

On XXXX I made a purchase with my square XXXX via XXXX for {$350.00}. This transaction was immediately canceled through XXXX and refunded. I called square to have the funds added back to my original balance and the square rep voided out the wrong XXXX transaction which in turn charged me twice and put me in a negative balance. Not only is this an inconvenience but will also reflect negatively on my account when doing future business with square. All because of a mistake on the behalf of the square representative. Ive been transferred numerous times with no resolve in sight! Was told it would take up to 60 days. The representative XXXX XXXX was very dismissive and refused to transfer me to a manager or someone above her in ranking to help resolve this issue.

I previously filed a complaint and the company responded to you that they gave my money back. I have not received my money nor will they tell me where it is at besides the fact they will not give it back to me. This all started when my phone was stolen and someone logged into my cashapp account and changed all my information over to them. I alerted the company and they stated they closed the account. Clearly the account is not closed and this person is still using it. My stimulous check went into this account after they told me it was closed and they said they would combined my old account and new account at one point, then they retracted and said my request to access my funds was not approved. They still will not give me any info as to where my money.

I can no longer use my Cash App card, It will not let me link my bank account or card to my account in order to be able to withdraw my funds.

Cash App should be XXXX XXXX. This app is a money eater. Transactions declined with no explanation. Can't add a payment method to withdraw balance with no explanation. Can't cash out my balance to an EXISTING payment method with no explanation. No error message telling me my account has been flagged and what to do about it -- it's just that the money goes in and then they cut off all ways of getting it out. This company has NO PHONE SUPPORT, so the best you can do is send an email and pray to XXXX a human gets back to you. I have {$150.00} tied up in Cash App right now and it's ALL THE MONEY I HAVE IN THE WORLD. This is the worst financial company on the planet. When I entrust a company with my money and they stop me from spending it, I GET XXXX!

On XX/XX/XXXX I sent a seller {$160.00} using CashApp. They called me to ensure it wasn't a scam and they would ship my item tomorrow. At that point, the seller blocked my phone number from texting or calling. They stopped responding to emails. I immediately let CashApp know and to cancel the transaction. They did not respond very quickly and thus the money was transferred from my bank. I disputed this with CashApp and they said to contact my bank to see if they would refund my money due to scam. The bank concluded the investigation and denied my claim. They instructed me to take this up with the merchant. Seeing how the seller blocked and scammed me, I contacted CashApp. They have yet to respond or refund the money they allowed to go to a scammer.

I have never opened or attempted to open a Cash App account so I immediately contacted Cash App support and they opened an investigation.

I refuse to give out more personal information so they will not provide me with any other information about the account. They state it has been closed as of XX/XX/2021.

I pointed out specific transactions and a specific card number.. my complaint was ignored. Somehow the card is linked to my current account for direct deposit along with 4 authorized users that I did not approve. Cash app should be held accountable for all of the unauthorized transactions! I dont know how a card that was reported stolen can be reactivated! My security requests were ignored. I feel like I was discriminated against when I first complained and was laughed at saying there service was secure! I am canceling my account and advising everyone I know to do the same!

I disputed the claim with SquareUp, Inc, owner of the debit card company. Several customer reps, in writing, told me that it would take 2 days to look at my claim. and give me at least temporary credit. When I called back after no word in two days, a rude car told me 60 days. I complained and asked to speak to a supervisor and this person XXXX said no you cant and I am going to hang up. ( No I was not screaming, being rude or yelling. I sent pictures of the non working machine and the serial number with a metal plate saying rental, please return. This information was ignored by SquareUp.

On XX/XX/2021, I received a debit card in the mail from Square. The card is issued by XXXX XXXX. I never created a business account with Square or XXXX XXXX and neither company has telephone support to handle issues relating to fraud or identity theft. I've tried multiple times to access their support and am told that, because I'm not an account holder and don't have a " customer number '', I'm unable to get assistance. This is the third " XXXX XXXX '' where an account has been opened in my name without my permission, probably using stolen information from the dark web. Every other bank or company has had live customer service people to talk to that have dealt with the issue quickly, but Square and XXXX XXXX make this virtually impossible.

I received 3 different Visa debit cards from a company called Cash App that I never applied for. I attempted to call Cash App customer service number but only got a message from an automated attendant advising me to go to their web site for help. My computer anti virus indicated that the Cash App web site in a non secured site therefore i did not want to access the site. The debit cards refer to a bank Called XXXX XXXX. I call XXXX XXXX however they are not able to help in getting the cards cancelled. The representative did agree to reach out to Cash App to see if there is some way to have someone contact me by email. I just want the cards cancelled and request no further cards be issued in my name. Hopefully you can help with this matter.

No luck. I then logged into my CASH App account, and then I was made aware the account had been closed and the steps that I need to take to retrieve my funds.

I STILL have not heard from this company, and I have over {$2500.00} in that account. The app will not allow me to transfer, withdraw, or anything. I have XXXX small children, the holidays coming up, and no access to my funds.

I received, absent of any solicitation or notice, XXXX XXXX XXXX debit cards from " Cash App ''. I did not sign up for, request or demand this service. Upon trying to contact the company, I was informed there are three methods to contact them : through their website, which simply explains the other options, a 1-855 number which also merely lays out the other options, and the option to use their app, which I do not have an account with. It is explained on the site and on the automated system that there is no option for live phone support. There is no straight forward option to dispute this situation, and very little information is provided in the mailers I received. I am concerned that someone may have used my identity to request these items.

I woke up and saw that my cashapp card was used for 3 transactions while i was asleep. I immediately emailed cashapp support and attempted to file a dispute. I was given the run around as the screenshoots and emails i printed and attached show. XXXX claimed in a email that my account was going to be credited provisionally for the transactions. However the credit was never applied. I asked about the credit to which i was tpld to wait 1-3 days. i asked again and was told that the credits are on my account but are not displayed and i will not have access to the money until the dispute is complete in 45 days. I was also told to not inquire about the disputes again. This is not the first time cashapp has mishandled disputed transactions.

Someone stole my phone and changed my cash app information to theirs. I immediately alerted cash app and told them what had happened. I have sent multiple emails asking them to close the account, if they are unable to close it, to move it back to my name. I provided them with the information they needed for the person that stole the account including user name. I have been emailing them since beginning of XXXX. They continued to have a new rep respond each time and ask the same information over, and over. then I was sent an email that it would be resolved in 30 day they had a higher than normal volume of complaint. Now they refuse to respond to a single email, they wont tell me if the account is closed, where my stimulus check is. Nothing.

I received a Cash App Cash Card mailed to my address in my name ; however, I did not open a cash app account. I received the card on XX/XX/21 and I contacted the company on XX/XX/21 to attempt to close the account and ensure the card does not get activated. The Cash App customer service number that I called asked for my email to be able to send me a link to submit my information to " deactivate '' the card. I told them I did not want to share any more information since they already had my mailing address, name, and now through my calling they had my phone number. They assured me that the only way to deactivate the card was to send me an email with a link. I declined this as it sounds like a scam attempting to get more information from me.

I have been using cash apps direct deposit option through XXXX XXXX. Ive received many deposits from work and my unemployment benefits, even the stimulus was deposited there for me. However on XX/XX/2020 my cash card all of a sudden stopped working declining every transaction I wanted to make. When I tried to activate my card it kept saying I was not able to then my card disappeared. I then had the option to start a new card but it kept saying it can not activate a new card for me at this time. Ive tried several times and several attempts to speak to cash app but the response is lagging. I am supposed to have received my unemployment benefits by now but cant because they wont let me activate a card. I need help, and have bills to pay.

On XX/XX/XXXX at approximately XXXX a transaction popped up in my Cash app account saying I have just sent {$450.00} to some person. I didn't do that.

I made several calls to CashaApp concerning my direct deposits and all they could tell me is how to find my account number/routing. I called Social Security and they said that it had been deposited into XXXX XXXX and it was not the same account number as CashApp. Then we finally called XXXX XXXX to see what happened. Social Security and myself was told that They are no longer in partnership with CashApp since XX/XX/2021 and that CashApp was supposed to have sent out letters or email letting us the consumers know of these changes, but we received nothing. Because of this my money is stuck in ciber space waiting to be returned back to Social Security and I am waiting more days for a deposit that I should have had on the XXXX of XXXX.

I did a {$650.00} transaction on Square POS. I know that Square charges 2.9 % processing fee plus XXXX per transaction. However, when logging into my account it was very cumbersome, difficult, and not transparent disclosing the actual amount I would be paid. I finally had to chat with a representative of Square so they could lead me to the correct page to view the amount I would be paid. However my frustration with Square of not being transparent is that it took 5 different pages to find the correct information. But the first 4 pages showed in LARGE BOLD lettering {$650.00}. It was only until the last page ... at the very bottom ... in greyed-out small lettering ... {$630.00} transferred. That should have been disclosed on page 1.

On XX/XX/XXXX, someone committed fraud by finding a lost wallet, and using the contents of the wallet to deposit a US Treasury Check into a secondary account and immediately withdrawing monies by utilizing cashapp to transfer money. Cashapp was contacted immediately afterwards to file a claim against this unauthorized use as more than {$1000.00} was transferred from the account. They forwarded a notice on XX/XX/XXXX acknowledging that they needed to apologize due to their slow response on the the matter and that a representative would contact us immediately. That was back in XXXX. This matter still has not been finalized to this day. I am requesting that cashapp pay back all the money that was taken under this account immediately.

This is my second complaint After the first response i recieved last month i have received an additional 2 cards in my name with different accounts attached to them. This happened while all of my information was frozen thus proving that cash.app doesn't use any conventional ways of identity verification before issuing cards and accounts. The response i recieved last month was that I'd be removed from the system and blacklisted. That didn't happen so this complaint is two parts 1. I didn't solicit this service the first time early XX/XX/XXXX, second time mid XX/XX/XXXX, third time or fourth time early XX/XX/XXXX ( over a month after my original complaint was addressed ). 2. My information was not blacklisted as previously stated.

I have only gotten one response where they offered to refund the fee for the instant cash out for one transaction, {$30.00}. There has been no action that I am aware of to put the missing money in my account. The transaction details are below. XX/XX/19 {$200.00} XX/XX/19 {$1500.00} XX/XX/19 {$500.00} Total of {$2200.00} Customer service with CashApp is nonexistent. I need a speedy resolution as I am on a fixed income and I am now in jeopardy of losing my home. I feel that I have done everything that I can do to resolve this on my own.

I had a XXXX dollar balance on my card. I tried to use it at a merchant XXXX XXXX. Despite the balance, Square cash illegally denied me access to my funds and denied my transaction 3 times for XXXX dollars. I complained to customer care who came back with a lie that the merchant doesnt allow visa cards. this is obviously a lie for multiple reasons : 1. My friend eventually used a square card. 2. The decline was from Square cash and NOT the merchant as I can see the decline in the app without any reason. The customer care agent after copy pasting the same response once stopped responding. This is close to my friend 's experience who once had an issue and due to inept customer service stopped trying to resolve her issue.

I filed a police report and have an active case with a detective handling it. At this point I'll be without ligjts, water, insurance and phone service by next week with no help of getting my money returned .I really think its an inside job with whomever works for cash app or owner to scam people out of money when they can, if they are a so called bank or etc they can clearly see what happened

On XX/XX/2020 I used a nail salon with a Cash App account XXXX. I mistakenly sent cash to XXXX. The owner immediately let me know it was the wrong account and I cancelled the payment and received a confirmation from Cash App that the transaction was cancelled ( see attached ). I then sent the cash to the correct account XXXX which Cash App also confirmed. When i looked at my bank account Cash App paid the correct person twice which is not what i did. I have emailed Cash App back and forth for a week. They kept trying to tell me that I made the second transaction which I didn't and have documents to prove it. When I ask them to show me any documentation that proves I made the second transaction, I haven't heard from them.

Someone sent me {$25.00} on XX/XX/XXXX through cashapp. I saw the notification on my phone but did not cash out immediately. When I went back a few days later, the money was not there. When I clicked on the transaction, it said it was waiting on the person to complete the payment. The person who sent it stated that they had taken the money out of her account and that on her end, it said they were waiting for me to accept it. She has spoken with them several times and they keep confirming the amount was sent and that I just need to cash out. However, there is nothing there to cash out. I have contacted them myself and have not gotten a response. Ironically, the transaction has now disappeared from my list of transactions.

I contacted their resolution phone number at XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX to request that check their system why I was contacted and to ensure someone wasn't trying to make an account in my name.

I received two unauthorized pre-paid cards ( 1 ) XX/XX/XXXX and the other XX/XX/XXXX of 2022, in the mail via CashApp. Both have my address and full name on them. I have never signed up with CashApp prior to receiving these cards, for some reason you need an account to talk to their customer support, which is in app and then they email you for further assistance. I have reported these cards there. I have not received a response from this company in regards to if these accounts will be terminated. I don't know the extent of what info is needed to gain access to create a pre-paid debit card through their app. I am concerned that this will continue to happen and I will have multiple cards sent under my address and name.

On XX/XX/XXXX, I received a debit card in the mail from Cash App for an on-line account that I did not open. As of today, XX/XX/XXXX, I have not been able to get this fraudulent account closed due to difficulty communicating with Cash App. My fear is that each day that goes by, this account is being used for fraudulent/illegal activities in my name. A copy of the debit card I received is attached ( front & back ). FYI - my personal info has been compromised and other attempts have been made to open credit cards or on-line accounts in my name. Alerts & credit freezes were applied to the three major credit bureaus in XX/XX/XXXX. I've also filed reports with the FTC and local police regarding all of these incidents.

My cash app account was hacked on XX/XX/XXXX and {$700.00} was stolen from my account. The company dismissed my claim but it was their application that was hacked. They claimed that a known device was used to transfer money from to other people before so that is why they think this transaction is authorized. My phone was stolen on XX/XX/XXXX and I have transferred using cash app since then from a new device so shouldn't their same rationale be applied and they should have questioned transactions from 2 separate devices? THEIR SECURITY IS LACKING AND THEY SIMPLY DO NOT WANT TO BE ACCOUNTABLE. I provided cash app with the usernames of the people wo stole my money but they refused to approve my claim or find my money.

I have a legit business in XXXX, all of my clients have had a pleasant experience with me. I even have at least 1 review on my XXXX page. They flagged my account and asked me to submit documentation to prove the legitimacy of my business. The same day, they sent me a message informing me that they were closing my account and could not support my business. I supplied them with my Authority Addendum and EIN paperwork. That is more than enough to prove legitimacy. All transactions were of $ XXXX {$90.00}, and the service was recommended by my beautician. They claim theyre holding my funds for 90 days, this is unacceptable and will not be tolerated. I will pursue legal action if this is not resolved in a timely manner.

A friend accidentally sent XXXX dollars to my old cash app account. I no longer have access to my old phone number or debit card associated with that account. I contacted cash app support and they told me I have to answer some security questions. One of my answers was wrong but they wouldn't tell me which one. This was an old account and I can't possibly remember everything exactly. They closed my account and did not give me my XXXX dollars in the account. I asked for them to send the XXXX back to original sender. At first they said yes but then back tracked. Cash app basically stole XXXX dollars from me. Since the account is closed and the money not refunded the only one that has access to the funds is cash app.

On XX/XX/2021 cash app sent over a fraudulent statement stating that they had a valid reason to denying my unauthorized transaction claim. They stated I did not provide supporting documentation? When I asked what supporting documentation was needed they failed to respond. They stated that I never answered questions about my account that is also false! Their agent XXXX also falsely stated that she initiated a claim and within 13 mins she denied the claim with is a federal offense. Square/ cash app has committed fraud and I simply want my money back. I wont stop until this company is held responsible! I am willing to go to all media outlets!

But they stopped offering me their services because I had a chargeback and they said they will hold my available funds until XX/XX/2020 then they will send it to me. They assured me that they will get in touch one week before they send the money on XX/XX/2020. They haven't got in touch with me, but they kept withdrawing money from my bank account for a fee I do not understand. The chargebacks were all settled and I have about {$500.00} which was ruled in my favor in my square account but the money has disappeared and I can't find it anymore. I need to remind square of that to send my money as promised or I will sue them

On XX/XX/2021 I sent {$1100.00} from one cashapp account I have associated with one phone number and bank account to a second cashapp account associated with a different phone number and bank account. For some reason I could not access the account to retrieve my funds. After over XXXX hours of in app support, several emails and attempts to contact by phone Cashapp representatives are telling me that I can not retrieve my money due to security. No one can tell me what security, no one can tell me where my money is, and there is apparently no escalation process. I do not understand how my money is being kept by this app and I have no recourse to recover it. Is this organization, owned by Square, not regulated?

On XX/XX/XXXX I was looking for a air conditioning service and the lady agreed and asked me for a deposit of {$100.00} I sent the money through cashapp. She asked for more money for the deposit and I told her I would send half the payment which was {$150.00} so I sent her {$150.00} in total. She said she never received the money, I thought it was a bit weird and asked her if she can send the money back I showed her proof that the money was sent and then she said no its wasnt when the money was taken from my account. I requested the money back on cashapp and she declined it and called my bank and they did a dispute but werent able to get the money back and they told me to file a claim through this website.

I have a new number. When I downloaded Cash App on my new phone to access my account it kept giving me an error message stating my info was incorrect. I do business using my cash app account, so this is completely an inconvenience and poor customer service. I tried reaching out to the company numerous times, emails, calling the number online in which your unable to speak with any representatives. It has been a complete nightmare. Not only do I have funds in my cash app account I also have provided my personal bank account information with a company that I can not even speak to. Please assist me in speaking with someone from this business. Once this issue is resolved, I will NEVER use Cash App again.

After I realized the mistake, I immediately tried to cancel the transaction.

CashApp told me I was out of luck. I have also disputed this transaction with my bank, XXXX XXXX. I called them while the transaction was still pending and they said to wait for the transaction to post and then file a dispute. I did, and a couple weeks later they send me a letter in the mail notifying me of a denied dispute.

I tried disputing on Monday, XX/XX/2019, the transaction with my bank, but they said they can't do that since I gave the money to the scammer. I even tried to ask the money back from the scammer, but they declined. I feel it would be best if they would. They scammed me out of my money, and they even sent me a fake check. I didn't even know it was a fake check until I looked at it more. This transaction was completed on Friday, XX/XX/2019. I even paid them through XXXX, but they said they would take care of it.

On XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX my cash app account started having fraudulent activity. I attempted to transfer {$1800.00} to my bank via deposit through cash app. I had never had any troubles with this app. The transaction said " instantly deposited. '' I was charged an " instant fee '' of {$27.00} for making the transaction. However, my bank has confirmed no money was ever deposited from this transaction. My account also had withdrawals of several transactions of {$250.00}, {$250.00}, {$250.00}, {$250.00} {$250.00} totaling XXXX. That total plus the instant deposit cash of {$1800.00} totals {$3100.00} dollars that were unfairly hacked from my account. *cashapp is the company to seek reimbursement from.

My cash app account was hacked back in XXXX. I was bit able to get assistance with that service request I submitted. I worked with my bank to move forward and created a new cash app profile. By this time, my only concern was that I purchased stocks via my old cash app profile. I emailed numerous times to get the stocks transferred to the new profile. Someone finally reached out last week to resolve that issue. Well they are providing me with instructions to transfer the stocks myself and the instructions are not working. I have reached out to the XXXX of XXXX, the VP of cash app and to no avail no resolution. Its not millions of dollars but I am a working class citizen and this is not acceptable.

On XX/XX/2020, I received in the mail a Cash App Visa card that I never applied for. 2 weeks prior, a Cash App withdrawal and other withdrawals were fraudulently taken from my bank account, which my bank immediately corrected. I am suspicious that what happened 2 weeks ago is connected to my receiving an unapplied for Cash App Visa card. I can not contact Cash App by phone or email as I have searched for a number. I want NOTHING to do with Cash App ... NO ADVERTISEMENT ... etc.! At this point, this company has my name on a Visa Debit Card, with an account number, expiration date, and CVV # wanting me to activate. Since I can not contact them, how can I be removed from their company?

On XX/XX/21 I was approached and had my phone taken by 3 men who started CashApp multiple transactions to XXXX XXXX and XXXX XXXX for a total of {$1800.00}. By the time Id gotten my phone back the transactions hadnt been completed so I immediately reported the issue to CashApp. Instead of preventing the transactions they authorized them and allowed them to go through. I brought the issue to my bank who brought it to XXXX and gave me temporary credit. Upon XXXX investigation and communication with CashApp they were told by CashApp Id given clearance. But I have photo evidence that was not the case. The bank took the credit back and then some to cover deficit funds leaving me nearly penniless.

Starting on Saturday XX/XX/2019 I have been trying to log into my Cash App by Square account to access my money. The only way to log in is for them to send you a log in code either by text or email depending on how you registered for the account. Well my account is registered by email and the log in codes are not being emailed or not emailed on time because when you finally do get it hours later it has expired. Ive been without my money for days now and Im on vacation. You can not call anyone only email or tweet on XXXX and their response time is awful. I truly feel like Cash App needs to be investigated if not shut down but not before I get my money. Need to change my direct deposit quick.

Also if that person is not a contact in your phone the app verifies that the person is not a contact ask if you are sure you want to proceed with this transaction .That never happened today. I tried contacting Square and had no success with them. Money was taken straight out of my checking account not off of the card. The normal process is it is taken off of the card not out of your account.

I have verified my Cash App mobile account by providing the last four digits of my SSN, a full picture of my driver 's license, and even a picture of myself to Cash App. However, now Cash App is claiming that I must allow it access to my contacts to verify my identity. This request is a blatant violation of my privacy rights as an individual and a consumer. There is no reason Cash App would want this information other than to profit from it. I am absolutely willing to easily verify my account by providing additional information, but requesting to sync to my mobile phone 's contacts is completely inappropriate and fraudulent. This is wrong and Cash App should never ask for this information.

We opened an account with Square. Accepted the payment from a customer {$3600.00}. A customer is a brick-and-mortar business ( XXXX XXXX ) located in California. They paid via ACH through their account with XXXX XXXX. Nothing shade or suspicious, right? That's what we thought. We were wrong. Promptly, Square put the account under " investigation '' refusing to either release the money ( move it to our checking account ) or, at least, refund it back to the customer. It's been weeks and weeks. No way to reach Square - except chat with their bot or send an email. After we complained on social medica about their predatory behavior, Square closed our account ... while still holding the money.

In a rush I was trying to send money via cash app to my mother to help with a recently passed family member and sent to the wrong cash app account by mistake. I tried to resolve the issue with the person I sent it to ( which I do not know ) but the person refused to refund the money. I disputed the transaction with my bank and now cash app has closed my account without notice which still has funds in it. All I was trying to do is get the money back so that I can send it to the right person but cash app 's support has not responded and doesn't seem to be helpful. Even if they refuse to refund at least reactivate my account so that I can continue to help my family the fastest way possible.

Square 's Cash App has an option to provide a XXXXebit Card. I had ordered one, but never really used it. Since ordering, I had moved. I got a notification that they were going to re-issue a new card, but did nothing to verify that the address was still the correct one that they would send the card - other Financial Institutions do this as a security measure to make sure that a payment card is delivered to the actual owner. Since I never used the card, I contacted customer service to address my worry of the card being delivered to a wrong address and asked that they simply close the card and they were unable to do so. Customer Service should be able to close a card on their end.

I have tried to contact CashApp several times, there is no real number to call so I have emailed several times since Thursday and have only received automated emails and have gotten no where. I just would like to get my funds out of the account. It is a total of {$800.00}. Attached are pics and emails received. I have tried to add a new card and bank to transfer funds and it will not accept. The email I keep receiving says it has been over a week since they have heard from me but I have not had this issue a week yet.

I met a seller on XXXX who promised me goods if I paid him. I paid them using Cash App and once they recieved the money, they blocked all forms of communication with me. I have no personal information of the seller and cash app will not reply to my emails. I tried back charging the money XXXX {$800.00} XXXX but cash app settled the dispute in the seller 's favor because he told them " it was a money transfer ''. I have evidence and proof that we agreed an exchange of money for goods and even in the payments on Cash App, I specified the money was for goods. I am down {$800.00} and can not contact Cash App because they closed my account due to trying to backcharge the amount.

I used cash app to pay for a service call to fix a fixture in my bathroom. The service company XXXX XXXX service which turned out to be a scam. The business owner wanted me to send him money via cash app to pay for a part I needed for repair when I sent him the money via cash app I started to get suspicious because he continued to tell me he had gotten the wrong part and he needed me to send him even more money. I ended up hiring a real plumber who got the part for {$6.00} when this shady business man lied and said the part would cost almost {$80.00}. I tried to contact Cash App to dispute that this guy was running a scam but they have nothing on their plate form for disputes.

Square Cash, on their website, states they offer card protection with their Visa Cash Card. So I have been using it for purchases as I would any Debit/Credit Card. In XX/XX/2020, I had issues with XXXX on not being refunded for items I returned. I was refunded some items, but not all. I sent Square all the details they asked for. I submitted over 30 pages of proof I am due a refund. In the end, they state they will not help me file a dispute despite their website stating they WILL file disputes on your behalf. They state since I was refunded for SOME of my returns, they will not pursue it. Even though I am to receive refunds for the charges I asked them to dispute.

I had lost my wallet with my cash app card in it in XXXX. since then I have tried at least 3 times to get a replacement card. Each time cash app support asks me to wait two weeks and each time I waited the two weeks. In the meantime I have debts to pay and my paycheck was directly deposited in Cash app. I had no way to withdraw any of my money. I repeatedly discussed other ways of withdrawing money like a XXXX XXXX card. Support said that it would work. when I tried I was told Cash App doesnt support that bank. I just need them to actually mail me a replacement card. Anyway, thanks for listening. My name is XXXX XXXX, XXXX XXXX XXXX, XXXX, Ohio, XXXX. My email is : XXXX XXXX

Cash app states : Cash App offers standard deposits to your bank account and Instant Deposits to your linked debit card. Standard deposits are free and arrive within 1-3 business days. Instant Deposits are subject to a 1.5 % fee XXXX with a minimum fee of {$0.00} XXXX but arrive to your debit card instantly. I had an instant deposit from XXXX on my cash app debit card and it shows I have a XXXX balance. XXXX gave me a confirmation number and I know they made the deposit. Cash apps customer service line is always closed. I sent five support emails to them and have had not one response. They are not posting my {$920.00} to my account. It was a direct deposit to the card.

I have an online account with SQUARE to process credit card payments. On or around XX/XX/2020 I did a transaction for {$1000.00} and was told {$300.00} or 30 % of all new transactions would be held in a reserve for 90 days to keep for possible refunds. The 90 days ended today and they have now changed the reserve period to 120 days. Additionally I have had this account over 3 years and I have never had a return or any issues with payments processed on this site. A 30 % reserve for 120 days seems ridiculous. I have used credit card processing by my bank and did not encounter this type of issue. I am closing my account but looks like an additional 30 days before I can do that.

Wanted to puchase a good from a merchant that stated they had it. The merchant wanted me to send money through CashApp and they will send a receipt of them shipping to my address once they got the money. Right after they got the money, they blocked me. I asked for a refund through the app, the merchant denied my refund request. I emailed CashApp support but they will not do anything. I did not get my purchased goods and I did not get my {$290.00} back. I got scammed. CashApp keeps repeating automated emails to me without actually doing anything. They do not want to help me get my money back. I tried disputing with my bank since my CashApp account has my card saved there.

This transaction had be done multiple other times for various amounts between me and the same organization no problems. Then cashapp decided to " review '' this transaction. They essentially took my bitcoin deposit and are almost holding it ransom while providing zero reason or anything to back their actions. I reached out through phone and their chat and can be told nothing other than wait for an email. Cashapp is essentially stealing my money with no justification or reason and im tired of companies thinking they can do whatever they want with zero repercussions.

On XX/XX/2020 I received a text from the pharmacy that fills my prescriptions that told me they'd been receiving receipts from purchases I made at other businesses. They suggested that those receipts were coming form a company called Square. I went to the Square website and found that there was no way to speak with a live representative by chat nor was there a telephone number that would accept my calls unless I was a registered seller with their company. So, there as no way to fix the error or to take action to prevent identity theft that might result form the misdirected receipts. I am filing this formal complaint because this business refuses contact from the public.

Unauthorized payments were made on my cashapp account. I was scammed and they got access to my cashapp and they sent large funds to two accounts. I delete the app and my account to stop them from hacking my accounts. I went through cashapp support chat and Ive called a ton of times to tell them to cancel those transactions. I tried on the XXXX and almost everyday since then but have had no luck. They asked for some information to prove my identity through the app and they said they cant do anything since the account was closed. I am trying to get that money refunded so I can pay off a debt to the bank and they are practically refusing to help me. I cant chat or call.

I keep asking for updates and each time I'm given a different generic response. On XX/XX/2020 {$1900.00} was spent on XX/XX/XXXX and withdrew, also {$90.00} was sent to someone with the name XXXX XXXX. I immediately contacted cash app support thru the only unreliable form of contact email. They responded with six questions which I answered. No one responded until XX/XX/XXXX only because I complained to the XX/XX/XXXX and the response was basically to scold me.

On XX/XX/20 I was scammed out of {$200.00} on Cash App while trying to buy a sweet puppy. On XX/XX/20 I emailed CashApp about the scam and sent picture evidence and I told my bank about it for a chargeback on the fraud ( on XX/XX/20 and they did nothing about it and did not approve my chargeback refund from my bank. I do not understand how Cash App/ Square ( parent company ) is still in business if they have proof of a scam and still won't return peoples money when they request it via a bank, I do not feel protected as a consumer right now. They basically said, oh well we can't help you and they did not refund my money when I requested a chargeback from my bank.

On XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX I sold a XXXX XXXX XXXX to XXXX XXXX XXXX He paid me using cashapp in the amount of {$650.00}. XXXX XX/XX/XXXX XXXX XXXX used a chargeback on me for the amount {$650.00}. Cashapp allowed this person to get his money back and Cashapp took the money out of my Bank. This is clearing fraud by XXXX XXXX because I sold him the XXXX XXXX XXXX. This transaction was done at a police station which has video proof that was a legit transaction. The only information I got from cashapp is they do not deal in chargebacks. I clearly did not wrong and cashapp is aiding XXXX XXXX in commiting Fraud by giving him his money back and keep the product I sold him.

XXXX bank just informed me that cash app resent my {$200.00} to a closed account with XXXX at XXXX PM on XX/XX/2021, after I just reported on XX/XX/2021 that I made a mistake. I no longer have an account with XXXX and I updated my new bank account information on XX/XX/2021. I am not understanding why you all will not allow XXXX to resend the {$200.00} back to my cash app account per policy. This is highly unprofessional, errant, and inconveniencing. I earned this money direct deposited into my account on XX/XX/2021 via cash app. It should not take several days to reimburse money from a closed account back to cash app. Respectfully, XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX

Cash App has blocked me from receiving these funds and will not allow me to access my funds. I have went through their verification process twice, I have contacted them via XXXX, In App Support and Emailing and have been receiving automative responses.

Everyone said there's nothing they can do so our bank told us to contact your company to help resolve and hopefully recover our funds.

On XX/XX/2020 I initiated a transfer of {$9000.00} from my Cash App balance to my linked external bank account. The funds were never transferred and I was subsequently unable to access my Cash App account, having received notifications that my mobile number and email address had been unlinked. Upon contacting their support, I was only informed that my account had been closed. As per terms and conditions set forth by Cash App, the money transfer must be made. I have incurred substantial expenses as a result of their failure to complete the transfer in the timeframe specified. Screenshots showing my balance and transfer to my external account are attached.

On XXXX at XXXX XXXX I was transferring funds to a company using Cashapp ( Square ) to a company for service performed. The cash app name provided was duplicated by someone and they received the funds instead. I immediately contacted cashapp and the person receiving the funds to have the funds returned to my debit card. The unintended recipient rejected my request to return the funds and cash app support declined to help return the pending funds back to my account. I have reached out to my financial institution as well with no help provided. I feel that the fraudulent act is not being investigated by cash app as they are unwilling to help with my case.

I can not get any details of transactions that would've enabled me to dispute thr charges eith the merchants. I lost about {$700.00} and information on parties responsible for fraudulent charges.

On XX/XX/XXXX I received a business debit card from square up with my name and address on it, when I called to report that this was a fraudulent account and that I never contacted them they said they would " start an investigation ''. When I asked they said that someone would have had to actively open a debit account in order to receive their card. I told them that this is identity theft then. I have since received a second business debit card from them now with the business name adjusted by one letter. I have not received an update on their " investigation '' nor do I believe they are actually doing anything to prevent further misuse of my identity.

There is no way anyone in Ma could have my physical card yet it was used for an in store purchase. XXXX has said they can not assist me. Cash app states I need to wait to see if they can assist me and cant explain why I wasnt notified of the charge immediately as I always am for charges. None of this makes any sense.

On XX/XX/XXXX at XXXX, I sold a XXXX XXXX XXXX. He sent me a payment of {$1100.00} via the app CashApp. The transfer showed successful. After I walked back into my home and opened my phone to transfer the funds to my bank account, CashApp decided to cancel the transaction. Leaving the buyer with my money and laptop, which he happily decided to keep and run away with. I've confirmed with Cashapp that they're the ones who cancelled it. Their reason was to protect me, which they did the exact opposite of. I reached out to them and they recommend me solving this issue " outside of Cashapp ''. I filed a police report and am still fighting with cashapp.

They left me at a {$0.00} balance. And they still have refused to contact me back about how I can receive my money that was in my account. Please can you help?

A transaction in the amount of {$30.00} was sent to user ID $ XXXX on XX/XX/XXXX by mistake, wrong person.. The error occurred due to user ID appearing last, this person was sent money prior on XX/XX/XXXX and therefore the ID came up after amount selected. Also, the person has a similar name to person intended for. I requested a refund shortly after, it does not appear the person will refund as it has not been processed as of yet.. Since the person did not refund, appears to be a scammer, I have blocked the user ID. My Cashapp ID is $ XXXX. I request Cashapp refund the transaction as the transaction is in error and person appears to be a scammer.

I have already confirmed the deposit to my cash app with the State of Michigan, on behalf of my husband who personally spoke with the State of Michigan.

An unauthorized account was opened using Cash App in the name of our employee. The account was determined to be fraudulent. The account used the bank routing number for XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX and account number XXXX. The email used was XXXX. This person used fraudulent emails and bank information to request that we deposit the employee 's payroll check into the account. The scammer was quite good and we did not realize it was fraudulent until we had transferred the paycheck on XX/XX/2021 and had {$1800.00} stolen. It seems that criminals are using this Cash App and prepaid cards to steal money without having to show XXXX open the account.

I noticed a fraudulent transaction on my checking account associated with the Cash App app. After contacting my bank and closing my debit card I received an un-requested Cash App card in the mail in my name. I never opened a Cash App account so some one must have opened an account in my name and attempted to withdraw funds from my bank. My issue is that there is no way to contact this company to report the account as fraudulent unless I download their app and log into the account I never opened in the first place. I want to close this account asap before they use it to scam someone else in my name but there doesn't seem to be a way.

Cash App, which is a product of the company Square , Inc., based out of XXXX XXXX, California. As of right now, Cash App does not actually offer customer service via the telephone, only via email or through the app. Customer help phone number is impossible locate for this company.

My bag was stolen, which had my debit card and phone. When I tried to tell them, they asked for the card numbers to verify. Since the card was stolen, I couldn't provide them. Their support wouldn't even speak to me for weeks, then I made a CFPB complaint and they finally spoke to me. They said because they couldn't verify the account I was not entitled to the money. They said if I made a new account I could transfer everything from the old account. I did this and they still didn't transfer the money. Now they're saying it is a security issue, they will not give me the money, and due to their terms of service the matter is closed.

Cash App is encouraging fraud. On XXXX XXXX I paid XXXX XXXX for weed. The original amount was {$40.00} but due to Cash App fees I ended up having to pay {$41.00}. When it was time to deliver what I had paid for, XXXX XXXX stopped responding to my texts. I then requested a refund of which he declined. When that happened I then filed a complaint with Cash App. The App took me around in circles ( in writing ), refusing me to file a complaint. This is encouraging fraudulent behavior on the App. I would like the refund of the amount paid to XXXX XXXX as I did not receive the goods. Attached is the reference number : ref : XXXX : ref

On XX/XX/XXXX, Cash transfers from an unknown CashApp account were attempted using my XXXX. I am notified of every transaction immediately, so I was able to call XXXX within 5 minutes, from XXXX where I was when this happened, to block the transactions. One was in the amount of {$300.00} and the other for {$600.00}. I checked my personal account and did not see these transactions, but somehow the XXXX linked to my account was used by another CashApp account holder. When I called, CashApp walked me through securing my account but was not able to confirm being able to remove my card from other accounts and closing those accounts.

I got a cash app card sent to me in the mail. It has my name, CVV number, 16 digit account number and expiration date. I did not ask for or apply for this card. Cash app is a subsidiary of Square. There is literally no way to reach anyone at Square unless you are an account holder, which I am not. My report is in regard to the card, but also that Square has no way to contact a human. I can not even email them. How can they be in business as a financial institution with no way to communicate with them in cases like this? Square should be required to have a hotline or clearly labeled email for fraud support OR BE SHUT DOWN.

On XX/XX/2020 my cashapp account was frozen due to " unusual activity ''. This happened just as I tried to send some money to another user. I immediately emailed support to have my account unlocked and have emailed daily since then it is now the XXXX of XXXX and no response. I also attempted to call the cashapp customer service number but can not contact a real person at that number. The automated message just directs me to send an email through the app which is what I have done daily since it was locked. My account has just over 2,000 dollars In it and it is vital to my financial wellbeing that I am able to access these funds.

I believe my Cash App account was hacked because all of my personal information is constantly being removed and whenever I put my number theres another number on there I do not know. Also, there are requests coming from people that I do not know that are asking me for money that I do not have. I have even wrote down the number and email address that was seen on my account and email as well. The email address that was seen on the account was XXXX and the number seen was ( XXXX ) XXXX. I had even went so far to reporting my card stolen in order to get a new one that would come with new routing number and account number as well.

On Monday, XX/XX/2019, our car was burglarized and multiple credit cards stolen ( in XXXX, CA ). Those cards were then used fraudulently ( between XXXX XXXX - XXXX ). The most significant fraudulent charges came through a Square Reader - all using a different credit card by a company called " XXXX XXXX XXXX '' - for even amounts of {$500.00}, {$1000.00}, and another {$1000.00} through three separate transactions on different cards. Our credit card companies are making us whole ; however, it is apparent that using different credit cards by one Square Reader is a pattern that won't be detected by one credit card company.

Unauthorized transactions on my cash app card. I had two weeks wages taken from my card around {$400.00}. At least 13 transactions came from a XXXX in New York. In all I had 16 unauthorized transactions that drained my card. The dates that this happened ranged from XX/XX/2021 to XX/XX/2021. First I called the merchants. They said I need to call Cash app. I called Cash app reported all the unauthorized transactions and they said sure you might get your money back in 45 days. I also filed a police report with my local sheriff 's office they said because these transactions were in New York they couldn't do anything about it.

For several months, I have been expecting to get my money back from Cashapp a Squareup company. I have messaged their support team NUMEROUS times for help. They are holding {$310.00} hostage in an account they closed stating we violated terms of service since we filed a chargeback for transactions that cashapp allowed unverified users to scam numerous members for thousands of dollars in order to aquire fees as income. We were punished with the loss of our account even after the charge backs were awarded in their favor due to the terms of service agreement that they DONT verify any member in accordance with the Patriot Act.

I selected such as boost for XXXX and made a purchase of a gift card at that online store, but did not receive my boost. When I inquired about this, I was advised that buying a gift card was excluded from boosts. However, nowhere on Cash App 's app or site do they explain this. I've repeatedly asked their customer support to show me an app screen or web page that explains this exclusion, and they have not been willing to do so. I believe such a page does not exist.

There is no number to contact them to look into the matter. The person made over 6 unauthorized charges on my debit card and was able to get away with XXXX in cash. I have filed a police report and am waiting g to hear back from the police. Cash app policies are a big security breach. My cash app wasnt hacked but my card was stolen. Yet cash app has no security feature that prevent anyone who steals anothers card information from draining their bank accounts.

After a couple hours, I realized I sent to the wrong person and I send an email to this person but he would not respond to me. So, I contacted Cash App and they say they would investigate further. After three days, they closed my case and they said the best solution is to contact the person directly. I have not received a message back with these person so nobody including Cash App could not help me. I have all the details for the person below : XXXX XXXX and his email : XXXX Cash App account : XXXX XXXX

I was paid {$4000.00} by my sister. The payment automatically went to an old account. In order to access the account cashapp is requesting the security code of a debit card that I no longer have. I have contacted them multiple times to try to obtain access to the account. Their response has been to send me an email asking for certain account information. I have received the email 4 times from four different bots but have still not had my account issue resolved. I have attempted to speak to an actual person 4 times, but they continuously point you back to the emails which do not give you a response.

I requested a refund in the amount of {$30.00} from user ID $ XXXX on XXXX, the user was sent funds in error, not intended for this person. The person has not replied, seems to be a scammer of some sort. A prior complaint was sent in regard to this issue, Cashapp replied by sending their terms and conditions, did not address issue pertaining to this error and scammer.. I do not send money to person ( s ) unintended for, it seems Cashapp will not step in, assist me in anyway. Providing their terms and conditions does address complaint, failing to take any action, additional complaints will be filed.

I received an unsolicited XXXX Debit card from CASH APP. Someone used my identity and information to open the account. My complaint is in regards to how difficult it was to contact CASH APP and get them to close the account. It took me 5 days, 15 phone calls an email and finally a XXXX message to finally get someone to help me and close the account. CASH APP is very difficult to reach. When an individual is experiencing identity theft the financial institutions involved must be easy to contact and quick to react. CASH APP is none of these things. I would not trust CASH APP with any of my finances.

On XX/XX/2021 {$800.00} was sent to my CashApp account. When I attempted to log in I was unable to access the account. After speaking with customer service they advised me to set up a new account and then they would be able to assist. Using the same phone number I created a new account. However, I still can not access the funds from the original account and customer service will not respond. There are now two accounts set up with the same phone number, one of which has {$800.00} I can not access. I am unable to speak to an actual person as they will only respond via an automated chat.

Claimed to be a hardworking father of XXXX. Location was in XXXX. Claimed to be in Ohio for the holiday. Offered to ship the item to me after I put down a deposit incase I stiffed them. Claimed they would mark the item as sold if I did so. They blocked me as soon as they received the money. The app was buggy after the first deposit, unable to send or recieve messages. Then it said I was blocked.

This represented my entire balance on the card. 2 other charges were rejected due to lack of funds. {$.00} for a store in XXXX Colorado and XXXX for XXXX in XXXX AZ on the same day. Obviously my credit card number got compromised. Cash App compnay will not issue provisional credit as provided for in the terms of service for using the VISA card service. They say it could take up to 55 days or resolution and it may not end favorably for me. Again, VISA protections indicate we as consumers are safe from fraudulent charges.

Cash app has continued to fall short of providing any type of resolution to my problem. For over a year, I used a single account with cash app. One that I even have the account and routing number that cash app provided me with at the time. This account was compromised and I can no longer access this account. Since then there have been multiple transactions from online vendors that were refunded successfully ( verified with multiple vendors ) more than several attempts to contact a live agent at cash app. Ive reached out to XXXX XXXX XXXX and square and they all advise me to contact cash app

This is a prepaid card. Square has an obligation to follow state, federal, and visa/mastercard rules and not stall for 10 days to process a disputed transaction. Further, the same restaurant merchant where the disputed transaction has been initiated has a duplicate pending transaction which has removed funds from the account for 8 days and still counting as of this filing : XX/XX/XXXXXX/XX/XXXX thoughXX/XX/XXXXXX/XX/XXXX. Note : The support representative uses more abusive stall tactics by ask for an email address, when there is already a dedicated secure square email on file : XXXX.

XX/XX/19 around XXXX XXXX - {$1400.00} XX/XX/19 around XXXX XXXX - {$1400.00} I contacted the bank and asked them could they stop the pending charges since it had just happened. They said no but to call them first thing in the morning to begin the dispute. I require either a fingerprint or PIN to access this account and somehow they were able to get Cashapp to change the PIN or they guessed it.

None applied to me : I have never had a transaction disputed, im not a new account, I do not have sporadic transactions and am do not provide a high risk service. I am a law firm. The customer service department said theres no exception to the rule and I must wait 120 days. I asked if they pay interest for these 120 days for the time my funds are not available and they do not.

This is related to my earlier complain that someone opened a fraudulent debit account into which that person tried to apply for unemployment in Ohio. Now another cash card has been received called " Debit VISA '' but there's no identification on the card from where the card has originated. The outside of the envelope references Square, Inc. ant that's all I can find. There is no phone number on the card to which I can report fraud so that's very concerning. How do people even open cards like this? I need to get this account closed but don't know where to turn to get it closed.

I called the XXXX XXXX who stated they were cash app cards and that cash app had no contact number so I had to contact them through cash app. Which I did when I was returned an email that had no information regarding my question then I sent another email and was contacted by XXXX who sent instructions on how to proceed. So I did and no response so I email back and was told my case was closed. So I contact again through cash app and still no response.

I paid for a hotel stay at the Philadelphia XXXX XXXX using my CashApp card on XX/XX/20. The hotel mistakenly charged me for an additional night Leading my total charge from the hotel to be {$530.00}. Upon learning of the additional charge I contacted the hotel on XX/XX/20 and they processed a refund of {$270.00}. This refund has not been received by me in my CashApp account. I have contacted CashApp countless times to dispute the charges but have gotten limited response or none at all. I have provided all supporting documents requested and I just need the money refunded.

IOn XX/XX/2021 a charge was made againt my XXXX XXXX card ( CashApp mobilie app ) following which time I contacted support on the mobile app. There is never anyone available by voice on the phone nor by live chat ; only by XXXX email ... days later which emails can not be verified. XXXX XXXX refuses to address the unauthorized charge issue, refuses to investigate the issue, and even worse has very poor security mechanisms in place to properly secure my assets and prevent fraud. The security failures are so gross such as to suggest XXXX XXXX is complicit in the fraud.

I had an account with XXXX XXXXXXXX XXXX XXXXXXXX for over 3 years, but have only done 2 transactions with it. Each time it was the same type of transaction, transferring funds from my personal credit card to my personal checking account. The transfer didn't provide any benefit to me, it was just moving funds from one place to another. The first transfer in early XXXX caused no problems. When I did it again in XX/XX/XXXX, however, Square closed my account with no warning. They did accept the {$30.00} or {$40.00} fee I paid them, however. The transfer was for {$790.00}.

My complaint is against Cash App. I disputed a transaction that was charged on my card XX/XX/2021 due to no services rendered. They refuse to credit my account for that transaction. I was told they would provide me a credit in 45 days of filing the dispute, which I believe was done on XX/XX/2021 on the phone with Cash App support. I havent received a credit to my account and its been well over 45 days since the dispute was filed. I received an email the other day that they were closing the dispute case now. How can they close the case when nothing has been resolved yet?

I think someone is using identity theft or fraud against me. Earlier this year, I attempted to create a cashapp account and one of the registration requirements is a social security number. I couldn't go any further with the process because the company wouldn't accept my social security number at all. This has happened for multiple apps & forms I've tried to fill out but couldn't complete because none of them will accept my number no matter what I do. I'm worried and I need help taking action to fix this issue so I can access my finances and know my ss number is safe.

Square closed my account and has not given a direct reason that explains why my account must be deactivated. I am aware of squares terms and conditions and what can cause an account to be deactivated. I have not broken any of the terms and conditions, nor have I experienced any chargebacks. My business is not considered high risk, I own a legitimate small catering business. I have been face to face with every client thus far, as expecting in the food industry. I personally know of 23 people with similar business models using square and I find this to be unfair.

MY LETTERS TO CASH APP For your reference, here are the 2 previous sham " investigation '' case numbers i had. case # : XXXX and XXXX.

Cash App advertised on its XXXX app that if I had my work direct deposit sent to my account with Cash App, that they would give me a {$50.00} credit on my next transaction of {$50.00} or more. I satisfied those terms and made a purchase at XXXX. The transaction was canceled and I was refunded the amount minus the {$50.00} credit. That is fine, but now Cash App wont re-enable the credit for a future transaction, so effectively I was taken advantage of by having funds sent to Cash App and at when the opportunity arose, they kept the promotional credit.

My cash app account was closed with an account balance of {$1400.00} for an unstated terms of service violation. Due to this, I am unable to withdraw my money to my bank account from the app. I have emailed support and was told to simply cash out my account, which I am unable to do because my account is closed. Now whenever I email I am simply met with a canned response telling me my account is closed and that I need to cash out, but the cash out fails every time. In my opinion, this is robbery because theyre preventing me from accessing my own money

I tried being as understanding with them and I find it very incorrect on how they work. Today XX/XX/2021 I still get their leads although my account is deactivated meaning if I do the same accidently they will charge me again. I never worked or will ever work with this company. They are very illegal going into my account and taking money for no reason. I have attached proof.

I am emailing in regards to cash app changing my account and routing details without informing me. I had my tax refund linked to my XXXX XXXX XXXX account. The other day it just automatically changed to XXXX XXXX XXXX account. How am i suppose to get my tax refund? I've moved out of the state in which i filed, that is why i had it sent DD instead of a paper check. Now because of this change without my consent or giving me a heads up, my tax refund won't get to me until god knows when. Also my last DD for my job has to be mailed also because of this.

My account was terminated and now I can't get my account to cash out. The original debit card that was used in the setup of the account was stolen and Cashapp will not allow me to link any other card with the account to let me cash out. I have over {$400.00} that I need but have no way to access it. I have asked them repeatedly to fix the problem and the only response I get is to go to their website and send in a question which has been done multiple times. I really need to know how to resolve this issue so I can get my money and be done with it.

Cash App is holding my Bitcoin hostage. I had {$10.00} worth of BTC transferred into my Cash App wallet, that I initially purchased from them, from an outside wallet. The blockchain is showing 118 confirmations so I can't reverse the transfer. This is 24 hours after the transfer was initiated that the transaction is still showing as pending in Cash App. I have tried writing their customer support several times but have heard nothing back. I just want them to either put my BTC in my wallet or reverse the transaction so I can have access to my BTC

I tried to log on to account # 2 and Cashapp application made me create account # 3 and it automatically populated info from account # 2. So I was locked out of account # 2 with {$600.00}. I have filed for an investigation from account # 1 and Cashapp said that their investigation is complete and they can't do any thing after they said they would do a one time courtesy transfer. I was told I could read their TOS. They have not taken any action after that.

I received a Cash App VISA Card. I've heard of cash app, but have never in my life signed up for or used cash app. I'm not even aware of how that stuff works. Also, There are markings on the card leading me to suspect that this card has been swiped. Usually there is a sticker on new credit cards instructing you to activate new cards and this does not have one. I tried to call a phone number for Cash App, but I was unable to reach a representative. I'm extremely concerned about this and am unsure of what I need to do. Can you please help me?

A gift card from XXXX was purchased in store in XXXX Florida for XXXX dollars using my cash app card. I live in North Carolina and have not been to Florida. I also have never given any of my personal information about cash app or my card information to any one. I was in my bed sleeping when this purchase was made. Cash app has no means to which I can cancel the purchase and XXXX has no real way to verify the purchase because it was not an online purchase. I have never lost or stolen this card for the card info to be in Florida.

On XX/XX/XXXX, {$61.00} was transferred to my account " XXXX XXXX ''. I was never able to retrieve that money. a week later, I wasn't able to access my account due to it being tied to a phone number that was out of service. As a result I had to create a new account. I notified cash app and they said they'd merge the accounts. It's been a whole week and still no response. I do not know what the merge status is, and I do not know the status with these funds. I need this money to pay bills. Cash App refuses to reply to me.

On XX/XX/XXXX I did a transfer of {$20.00} from my Cash App balance to my registered XXXX account. The transaction says complete but it never made it to my XXXX accounts. I checked both! It looked as if the account number they had on file was wrong. I noticed this after the fact when it didnt hit my account in the 3 max days advised. I did a {$11.00} transfer a few months back with no issue. I have emailed them 3 times as per the instructions in the app, and havent gotten any responses. And the funds still arent in my account.

CashApp is not allowing me to access any of my funds. They have said that it's because my deposit from unemployment doesn't match the name on my account. The only difference between my deposit and my account is that my deposit has my middle initial. Otherwise, my name is the same. It's been over 48 hours now since I've been able to access my funds. I've submitted documents showing my ID and still can't get to my money. I have no groceries in my house and I'm unable to buy any because they have continued to freeze my account.

Cash App refuses to help in anyway and has repeatedly sent the exact same email instructing me to contact the merchant and claiming that they can not process a charge back outside 60 days.

I recently lost my job and this seems incredibly negligent, especially in light of some of their other predatory practices.

By the time a representative responded to me I did not have any money in my account. The hackers were attempting to get money from my personal account. I was busy trying to protect my personal account. Now, I am being told no favor for money I put into this financial institution, my money onto their pre-paid card.

This is my third charge back issue with square bank ( the prior two attempts at charge backs were for small amounts so I did not peruse as diligently ). Every time I attempt to initiate a charge back their company never emails me back despite their XXXX guarantee. I have submitted requests for support 3 days in a row ( once a day after XXXX hours ) and have received no response. Their phone number merely tells me to use the app again, I feel as if I am attempting to resolve this dispute with a wall.

I tried to send XXXX to a colleague of mine and it declined. After it declined and I tried to withdraw then that's when they locked my account.

Cash app are a horrible company. They never protect accounts and when I report fraud, via email, no phone available to reach them and they never provide any documents, they only send a one sentence email : claim denied. It's frustrating and unfair and I plan on going to court to sue them via trial by jury if I don't get my money back. I've been going for over two years and their negligence is unmatched. Attached are all the responses they sent me. Also, all the transactions I want to dispute.

My wife and I recently discovered that sometime during the spring of 2020, our XXXX year old daughter opened up a CashApp account through Square , Inc. According to the terms and conditions, account holders are supposed to be XXXX years old. Obviously, they did no due diligence to independently verify her age. Square needs to due a better job verifying the ages of account holders. We have reason to believe that numerous of our daughter 's friends, also under XXXX, have Cash App accounts.

Cash App, a subsidiary of Square., is holding preauthorization charges on my account triple the typical amount of time such charges are usually held, thus effectively playing keep-away with my funds that I should have access to. This financial technology company, Cash App, is also mishandling disputed transactions and it appears to have no customer service number whereby customers can speak with a live agent ; there is only chat, text and email options the protocol of which keep changing.

re : Cash App - A Square Product. Refund amount {$480.00} from XXXX The only contact number XXXX only tells customers to use the Cash App to contact customer service. Refund is ''in review '' and support tickets are being auto-closed. The company which is issuing refund states refund was returned. Cash app is seizing assets and not returning the refund total. and does not follow the correct procedures for returning a refund. Getting this refunded ack ASP is very important.

Cash app let people take your money out your account but wont refund it back out the same account. They run as a bank with having a checking account and routing number but yet they will not dispute a scam even after you have proof. You can not talk to anyone on the phone. She deleted her interactions but before she did I took photos of everything.

CashApp allowed a merchant to obtain funds and not complete the service. CashApp then lied on the bank dispute and said that I, the consumer, received goods/services in full, which is a lie. I provided them with documentation showing the seller never responded after the company received a payment. I have contacted CashApp several times, and all they do is send automated responses. I have the proof, and it is unjustifiable for CashApp not to refund my money and lie.

On XX/XX/2019 my account was locked by cashapp. I currently have {$990.00} locked in my account and no one has contacted me or gotten back to me. I followed the app instructions to regain access but cashapp has not contacted me. I keep getting automated email saying they will contact me in 24 hrs but I never recieve any communication & my account is still locked. I don't know why it was locked but I need to regain access to my own money so I can remove it for good.

I sent Square police reports awhile back through email to a Square representatives who stated he would forward the information over to clear the balance owed. However it appears nothing had been resolved. My XXXX credit card was stolen and fraudulent used including unauthorized access to my square account after it was taken over by a criminal organization who tried to threaten me if I took any action against them. My information was then sold on the black market.

I executed a deposit transaction into my Square account on XX/XX/2021. On XX/XX/2021 I was notified my account was locked and I would have to wait 180 days, but no less than 150 days, for access to the funds. It has been over 180 days and my funds are still locked. The company has made no attempts to allow me access to my money. I just simply want to retrieve the money I was paid and is still locked in the account. XXXX XXXX

Transaction of {$8000.00} was made to my account today. Shortly after, my account was deleted with no reason at all. My phone and email were unlinked and I was forced to create a new account. This was through CashApp company. They deleted my card as well. I had {$50.00} on the account already. I contacted the company & they have no explanation as to why my account was closed. But the money was approved before it was deleted.

I have a balance of {$100.00} on cashapp and I cant deposit it. I thought it was because I lost my card and requested a new one.

On XX/XX/2021, I sent 2 payments to another CashApp user, one for {$300.00} and one for {$350.00}. The other user didn't follow thru with the agreement, and I further found out the entire situation was a fraudulent scam. I contacted Cashapp thru their app, as well as requested the money be refunded by the other user ( which is CashApps first resolution suggestion ) and never received anything back.

On XX/XX/2019 I had three transactions show up from my checking account. {$200.00}, {$190.00} and {$190.00} were processed through the cash app. I do not have a cash app account and can not get in touch with company at all unless I create one. This company let somebody use my debit card for the transactions. This caused my account to be overdrawn substantially.
