User Reviews for Remitly: Send Money & Transfer

Bad service- customer care wasn’t helpful much either

I did make a transaction using bank account it gave 2 options of delivery 1. Express and 2. Economy I did select express but it took economy when I went to next step on the final page it said transaction is in progress and delivery is economy and showing deliver for next Monday it is one week from now. I am using express to make sure to send transaction with in minutes. When I connected with customer support through the chat option, I gave reference number too he asked me to start over the transaction again. I cancelled current transaction and processed it again and it still did the same it took economy by default though I selected express. When I say this in the chat they say I am going through bank account and it won’t transfer immediately so asked me to do it using debit or credit card. I asked if it won’t do express transfers when using a bank account for funds transfer why does it shows me 2 options in which one is express when it is not meant to do so. They don’t have a answer all they said is we will make this issue as a priority for you. I did add debit card and it still does the same. I got so frustrated and cancelled my transaction and when through other money transfer application. Remitly got worst service.

WORST CUSTOMER SUPPORT EVER

This app lures you in with a smaller fee and better exchange rate, BUT when an issue occurs they show their true colors. They won’t help in anyway! Won’t even contact you to inform you your money was not paid out. So beware if you send money through this app to loved ones YOU will need to keep up with this app because all they will do is TRY REALLY HARD to steal your money. Because if it weren’t for my receiver calling me to tell me they didn’t pay her the money REMITLY it’s self wouldn’t have said a word to me! I have been “helped” ( NOT AT ALL) by their customer support team (FYI JUST A CHAT ROOM WHERE THE EMPLOYEES HAVE LIMITED ENGLISH WHICH WOULDN'T HAVE BEEN A PROBLEM IF THEY AT LEAST RESOLVED THE ISSUE!) for 3 WEEKS already trying to get my money back but REMITLY KEEPS PUTTING BLAME ON THE OTHER BANK ( still don’t know what “OTHER BANK”) and asking for my bank statements with all my information on them which I don’t understand why Remitly needs to see all my transactions they should just need to see the posted withdrawal of my money from them! SO IF YOU WANT TO USE THIS APP BE HOPEFUL THERES NO ISSUES WITH YOUR TRANSACTIONS BECAUSE IF THERE IS YOU WILL HAVE TO FIND OUT ON YOUR OWN AND KEEP TRACK OF REMITLY BECAUAE THEY WILL NOT MOVE A FINGER FOR YOU THEY WILL JUST SAY “ ITS AN INVESTIGATION THE OTHER BANK NEEDS TO DO WE (REMITLY) CAN NOT DO ANY THING WE CAN ONLY SEE YOUR TRANSACTION NOT FIX IT” NO HELP AT ALL!!! NO RESOLVE OF PROBLEMS !!

Bad customer service

They called and asked me for more information to verify my account and promised to give me a call back if they need more info. And then suspended my account without giving me the call as they promised. Very unprofessional. I called the main line and there is nothing they can do to reactive my suspended account even tho I am willing to provide them more information but it’s always “we can’t do anything”. They do not really know what’s the exact issue but its because of suspicious activity. Can they be more professional? If it is because of suspicious activity, they should have call me as what they promised and tell me about it, so I can answer to all of the questions they have. But they did not call me and just decided to suspend the account and cancel the transaction. What if my transaction is critical and someone’s life is on the line because of it? What if my transaction is for something in the hospital and they really do need that amount? Remitly just decided to suspend and cancel the transaction without getting anything? What is the point of having customer service when they can’t help you with anything? Instead of helping or fixing the issue, they just told me that I cannot use remitly anymore. And that, my friend, that’s how you lose clients. This is my first time using this app too. This is such a let down. Going to delete this app and tell me friends to do so as well. Unbelievable customer service.

Absolutely no part of this app works

I wasted my time by trying your “service”. The transaction was a whopping ten dollars to girlfriend. My bank accepted the debit but your app, predictably, screwed it up. You cancelled the huge transaction and the suspended my account. Your brainiac help section suggested resetting my password. Tried that many times. I input my email address and click reset and it simply deletes the email address and asks me to do it again. And again. And again. I then went to your “virtual assistant” but that doesn’t work because, lo and behold, your chat page will not allow us to scroll down to the place where we can enter anything! We can read your opening remarks in the chat boxes, but on iPhone we can’t scroll the chat down far enough to be able to type a response. We can force the chat window to go down and we can see the emptyMessage box, but when we release the chat window it bounces back upward so that nothing can be typed. Now we don’t really have words for this level of utter and rank incompetence. It’s rare to see an app this screwed up. At this point there’s absolutely nothing we can do. Now it’s up to you. Either fix this account or we will delete the app and be very, very public in our review, above and beyond the official review in the Apple Store. You people cannot seem to accomplish one single thing correctly. But we suggest you TRY.

Under appreciated Loyal Customer

I’ve been using remitly for about 10 years. I have no problem with them from the start but with what happen recently I have concluded that this is not the right remitance you should trust. I try to send money for my family in the Philippines then suddenly they delayed my transaction for some unusual reasons. They want me to send a copy of my bank statement to push throught with the process. After sending the requirements, they told me I need more information about the money that comes in and out of my bank. In my own perspective, its none of their business if I have money that get deposited from different account due to personal reasons. I felt disrespected by this company as they didn’t even bother to consider my reasons that someone back home needed the money for emergency. I was stress for 4days because if this matter. They promised to give me updates and help to resolve this matter but theh end up suspending mu remitly account due to this. Which is why I told ny friends and family never trust this remitance ever again. They can make people’s life more miserable and could make a big impact to us. This remitance has no consideration !!!! and no respect to the customers especially the Loyal ones like me. I will never ever consider this if I were you Please dont be a victim of this shaddy company.!!!! Who knows what they do with those bank statements they ask from their customers!!!!

Disrespected Loyal Customer, Oct 04, 2021

Very bad services support.

I have been waiting 6 days for my 4th transaction to complete. I’m watching the updates all the time, and it just say that it is processing since May 14, I tried to get more information about my process and nobody could give me a concrete time estimate for when my transaction would be completed. In orden to get my money back as soon as possible, I cancelled my transaction, and today I received a mail where they told me that I have to wait 7 business days more. They claimed that this waiting time was due to the recipient bank. Nevertheless, the recipient bank in colombia had not idea about this and had never took part in the transaction. It is insane how this app is playing with my money. Moreover, I couldn’t pay my insurance in Colombia last Monday, and now I have to pay a additional fee as a result of the incompetence and terrible service received from WorldRemit. It is sad that I’ve encountered this situation, I was very satisfied with their service so far and I send money back and forth quite often. Bitterly I’ll have to stop using their services, and would never recommend them to anyone.

HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE

Please, please, PLEASE. Do not use remitly. I had use the app some time ago and had activated my account. Everything was fine and I was able to do transactions without a problem. I tried to do a transaction like a week ago and was told my account was locked and had to contact customer service which I did but they could not do anything for me. They suspended my account without a reason and when asked about it, the person on the phone kept on telling me she could not do anything about it and my account would be permanently suspended. When asked why, she could not tell me anything because “of your protection.” ??? What does that even mean? How can you not tell me the reason for suspending my account and on top of that tell me its because of MY PROTECTION. This was a very unprofessional way of handling the situation on their part. The customer service agent kept on telling me that if I wanted to get an answer as to why my account was suspended, I needed to read the user agreement which did not answer any of my questions. WHAT A HORRIBLE APP AND CUSTOMER SERVICE. I have been reading some of the reviews, and this is a reoccurring issue that needs to be addressed! PLEASE THINK TWICE BEFORE USING THIS APP.

Worst customer service ever

I had sent money out of country many times using this app and over time i have noticed the customer service reps are extremely rude and blunt. They never give you full information or tell you everything that you should know. One of my transaction was on hold and i contacted customer service to ask the issue. He told me it will be approved ones i give him the transaction id or whatevrr needed. HE DID NOT TELL ME HE IS asking to approve a second money order. A day later when i saw two different transactions I reached out to customer service for explanation. Instead of explaining what happened he said i had (in very rude tone) reached out for help after my payments were sent (not true because why would i reach out after it was sent and say there is a hold on it). When i kept trying to explain to him he kept getting annoyed and rude and kept saying he doesnt have my password how can he send the money. I am not old or someone who is new to technology nor i am a Karan. I do many money orders at CVS.. its a bit different but i still have to deal with rude customers but i have never been this rude to anyone even if they were rude to me. Idk if anyone will even read this and say anything but i am definitely deleteing this app becoming there was absolutely no need for any bish to be rude to me and ignore my main concern.

This goes out to all Africans people…. Stop using this app

I have been using the service for almost 3 years now and always send money to Ghana for a project I was embarking on back home, just last week I sent an amount of $2,300 the money was deducted from my account successfully. Then called them to increase my daily limit bcs I need to quickly send more money, the agent I spoke with was very rude and disrespectful but I kept my cool but after I got off the phone and tried to log in to my account I saw it was not responding then I called but just to hear my account has been blocked bcs they suspect fraud. Then I said how could that be you have all my details on the account why don't you reach out to me or do your investigations first before closing the account? And also after a while, I received an email saying my transaction has been canceled.... Well since you guys have no respect for your customers and have decided not to return my funds back into my account my lawyers will respond to you guys shortly and also you will hear from BBB ( Better Business Bureau ) it's about time you guys respect the people who uses your platform....... The name of the agent who did that is called Archie an Account Specialist..... Refund my money
