Follow up on REFUnderscoreGEO_1032**** — missing $500 refund

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
AI Highlights
  • - Refunded $500 from Feb 6 not posted; referral REF_undercore_GEO_1032**** escalated.
  • - Request written status, refund date, destination with timeline.

I called Venmo on February 27, 2026, about a $500 payment from February 6, 2026, that was refunded but never posted to my account or card. The agent created referral REF_undercore_GEO_1032**** and said the case was reescalated to the correct department.

I have already provided bank statements and screenshots showing the original charge and lack of refund.

Please confirm (1) the current status, (2) the expected refund date, and (3) the exact destination (Venmo balance or card ending in the last four digits). I request written confirmation and a timeline.

Loss:
$200
Cons:
  • Bad customer service
  • Rude supervisor
  • Does not update on status of account win in dispute

Preferred solution: Full refund

User's recommendation: Dont send money with them because if get refund it will take along time to get the refund back.

Impossible to get help from a live person to unfreeze an account

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
AI Highlights
  • - Can't unfreeze account after long attempts.
  • - AI chatbot is ineffective and unhelpful.
  • - No reliable contact options; support emails/calls don't work.

I have tried forever to unfreeze my account. There is no payment due, and the AI chatbot is worthless—less than worthless.

The chatbot said I need to respond to an email sent to me; however, no email was sent. Their site has no support email. On Google, the support email doesn't work. Their phone number just takes you to the AI chat.

What a horrible, non-user-friendly system! Buyer beware.

Cons:
  • Ai chat box is worthless
  • Error messages do not give valid correction steps
  • Horrible support system zero customer live interface

Preferred solution: Apology

User's recommendation: stay away from this horrible site!! Their terms of Service are also horrible ... who can read and understand them! Shame on you!

It’s taking them almost a month to return my money.

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
AI Highlights
  • - Venmo payment to recipient who didn't accept it was returned to my card.
  • - I was told 10 days, but funds have not appeared.
Original review updated Mar 01, 2026

I had sent someone money through Venmo, but the person did not accepted it. I just decided to take it back.

I got a notification that my money was sent to the card I used to send it.

Well, nothing went to my account, so I called them and said it was going to take 10 days. Ten days passed, and I still haven't got my money.

Loss:
$200
Cons:
  • Everything about them

Preferred solution: Full refund

I forgot my password. I have spent over 3 hours trying to create a new password. The site won’t recognize my phone number to send a code. I spent hours with the automated chat. It’s a failure

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

The help chat sends me in an endless loop! It doesn't recognize my phone and can't send a reset code.

I tried to call the customer service number. It refers you to the chat helpline that I've spent hours with. There's no way to speak to a live person.

I was sent $1,000.00 and can't get the money unless I can open my Venmo account.

Obviously, I'm screwed! I can't even try to reverse the payment without opening my account! The money is in limbo!

The sender can't get it back without my approval. I can't give that approval without accessing my account!

Loss:
$1000
Cons:
  • Helpline is a chat bot that sends you in endless loop
  • No live customer service to talk with about why my account is frozen

Preferred solution: Deliver product or service ordered

User's recommendation: Don’t do business with VENMO! There is no customer service for technical issues!

Tricky

AI Highlights
  • - Membership rules flashed quickly and were hard to review.

Updated by user Apr 03, 2026

Don’t have any idea!

Original review Mar 19, 2026

It wasnt substantial time to see the membership rules! It flashed by quickly and I couldnt go back and before I knew it I wasnt just paying $5 like I thought I was committing to but a full membership for a year!

Not reliable entity, makes one think what else are they being tricky on !! Makes some one try another company!

Will not take debit card

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
AI Highlights
  • - Debit card add failed; system said the number wasn't valid.
  • - Credit card entry showed a zip code error; the user says the zip code is correct.

Nothing happened! I was trying to add a debit card, but your system said it was not a good number; I use the debit card all the time. So then I tried to use my credit card, and your system said I had the wrong zip code; I did not.

Cons:
  • Not good customer service for people trying to sign up

Preferred solution: Help to put credit card in venmo
