Consumer Narrative
I received payment XX/XX/2022 in the amount of {$300.00}. Square all across the internet promoting & advertising " Instant Transfer '' which is a deceptive act form of advertising. Today, XX/XX/2022, I've been waiting 5 whole business days to access my funds. I've encountered arguementive, unprofessional, rude Square customer service Reps since XX/XX/2022 trying to access my funds.Phone conversations from the above dates really need to be pulled from the above dates listed. Today, after finally realizing that Square isn't socially responsible and continuous waiting, I requested my refund of {$300.00} back to card ending XXXX. Now Square sent me a email of holding my funds " hostage '' again for 7 extra days. Why is Square allowed to tack on extra fees, false advertise, be rude to consumers and it's taking me, so far three complaints? Its bad enough the world is dealing with inflation, and now this. Very unfair to consumers, on all levels
