Consumer Narrative
I am trying to pay my rent with Venmo. My Venmo account is verified. I have 2 bank accounts linked. I am however no longer able to send funds from my primary account. It simply gives me an error that says " Payment Declined. Please try again. ". Venmo says this is due to their algorithm believing it is a fraudulent charge. They offer no support and no way for me to verify the transaction. I am a legal and legit users. Venmo is such a big part of our society these days, and this is effectively preventing me from being able to make many digital purposes. It is unacceptable that Venmo wants to be considered a legitimate financial institution, but can't resolve simple issues like that. Please help me! Thanks, XXXX
