Consumer Narrative

I applied for a Venmo account in XX/XX/XXXX, and in XX/XX/XXXX, I got an email saying my account was suspended for " unusual activity, '' but I had not completed setting up my account at that point. Every time I attempted to input my debit card information and/or bank information, the app would not accept it. My account had no funds tied to it. In XXXX of XXXX, I received an email saying that my account was permanently deactivated due to concerns regarding my activity. There has never been activity on my account because I had never actually used it for transactions.
