Square is an Irresponsible Company

9 点作者 Grovara123超过 11 年前
After completing a transaction this past week, I received the following email:<p>-------<p>Square, Inc. Hello Peter,<p>Our Account Services team has concluded a review of your account and has determined it to be high risk. For security purposes, we have elected to deactivate your Square account. From the date of this letter forward, you will not be able to process credit card transactions using Square.<p>To learn more about Square&#x27;s Seller Agreement and terminations, please visit: Seller Agreement.<p>Any funds currently in your account will be held for 90 days before being released to your linked bank account.<p>You may also consider refunding the payments back to the original cards and seeking an alternate form of payment. Please note that we refund all the fees too.<p>To refund a payment, please log in to the Square Dashboard on a computer at https:&#x2F;&#x2F;squareup.com&#x2F;login.<p>Navigate to your Payments page. Click on the payment you would like to refund, then click &#x27;Issue Refund&#x27; on the left. Enter the reason you are refunding the payment, then click &#x27;Refund this payment.&#x27; For security reasons, we cannot divulge the reason for your account termination. We apologize for the inconvenience, but our decision is final.<p>Thank you for understanding.<p>Sincerely,<p>Square Account Services<p>------<p>With NO phone number, NO customer Service center, and OUR money - what kind of company does Square think they are?<p>How dare they not offer customer support - I dare anyone reading this right now to go and find a phone number to reach a &#x27;Square Help Desk&#x27; - you won&#x27;t cause none exists.<p>Holding OUR money for 90 days is ludicrous also - how dare they.<p>I hope they see this.

I don&#x27;t use square nor does a quick search show a phone number for them. In does though show a lot of unhappy customers not able to find a phone number to square. Sure seems like if nothing else an opportunity for them to fix perceptions and help people.<p>Be somewhat thankful you aren&#x27;t with Paypal, that 90 days would be 6 months and there is little to nothing you can do about it. From what I understand technically, there is a 6 month window where credit card transactions can be challenged (at least in some cases), so many times Paypal et al will hold money for all or a portion of that period if your business is deemed high risk.<p>You don&#x27;t mention what your business is or what it is you do, so it is hard to judge why they consider you high risk. But good luck trying to get ahold of Square other than through support forms or email from the way it looks.

&gt; After completing a transaction this past week<p>So, I&#x27;m wiling to bet this is a high-dollar transaction. These generally have a high-risk associated with them, and generally aren&#x27;t accepted by a service like Square. In fact, I imagine the transaction was someone paying you to &quot;license&quot; your patent.<p><a href="https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=6308902" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;news.ycombinator.com&#x2F;item?id=6308902</a> <a href="http://patents.justia.com/patent/20130013387" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;patents.justia.com&#x2F;patent&#x2F;20130013387</a><p>In which case, Square is very much in the right, and you are indeed abusing the service provided.<p>If this is incorrect, please share.<p>&gt; Holding OUR money for 90 days is ludicrous also<p>You are clearly not knowledgeable about credit card processing and the banking industry.
