Can’t Buy Gas

I only got this app because a regular customer of mine only had or knew how to use Google Pay. I use many different cash apps. Almost all of them allow me to move money into my main bank without fees. Yes, most charge to instantly add to a debit card. If I can connect a bank account to Google Pay, it’s not anywhere as easy to do as the other cash apps. But my BIGGEST frustration with this app is I use this for mostly driving a customer around. I sure wish I could buy gas with it. I read all over the Internet on how to do it. The instructions are simple and clear. Just tap the “Pay” tab and scroll down to “Get Gas”. Problem is, there is hardly anything to scroll through… There are two things to pick from, food and parking. NOTHING about getting gas. This app is extremely difficult to figure, far more than it needs to be. Again, I’m only using it because I have a customer who only uses it. Apple Pay is worlds better than this app. Please! Let me buy gas with it!!!!

False sense of security

I am extremely disappointed with this service. I’ve been trying to file a dispute for almost two months in regards to a fraudulent transaction, and due to Google Pay’s system issues, I have not been able to submit the dispute in which appears to be the only way possible, by using their APP. I’ve attempted to contact them by email, I’ve been disrespected by phone, and every time I’ve called (at this point around 7 times) I’ve been told to wait 48 hours for a resolution. As an act of desperation, I have requested to speak to a supervisor, and I’ve been told they don’t have any contact with supervisors; therefore, they were not able to assist me. I’ve been hung up on a few times, just because I’ve requested to have some kind of answer of what’s going on. In the meantime, my dispute was never filed, and I’m still waiting for them to fix their system issues. It is a real shame such powerful company has such terrible interface, and non existent customer service. I’ve searched online for information on how ti be able to contact a manager from this company, the the information is non existent as well. Only the same customer service number which is good for nothing. I even submitted a “formal grievance” about this issue, but never even received an acknowledgment from their part. As consumers, we use these type of platforms to feel a little safer while doing online transactions, but they have failed me miserably.

Beware! New App is Horrible!

I will be deleting this app immediately! It’s so disappointing to have an app that you love and then go to use it one day only to discover everything you loved about it has changed. Typically, I like updates. This one, however, is horribly unnecessarily complicated. Plus, the new “update” includes being forced to pay a fee for instant deposit when using a debit card. Really Google? I HAVE to pay $15 to transfer $1000 out of my Google ACCT to my bank account if I’m using my debit card? But if I want to use my bank, it will take “up to” 5 days. No worries. I’ll wait. The absolute worst new update I discovered was when I tried to send money from one of my other accounts. I use my Google account to put money aside for my son. Essentially, a temporary saving. Anyway, I go to send money using my other account and was denied access to my own accounts. The message indicated that I HAD to use the money in my Google account before I would be allowed to send money from my other account. Wrap your mind around that. You’re being told that you cannot use your other accounts until you use all the money in your Google account. Unbelievably horrible. Not sure what Goggle was thinking, other than greed. I’ll be going back to Cash App. At least they give you an option to do instant deposit using your debit card. Extremely disappointed.
