I had a cashapp account for a couple of years now. Just yesterday I got notification that my account was closed. When I tried to reach to customer support they said that I violated terms and conditions and didnt tell me what terms and conditions. Then proceeded to say that my account could not be reopened and this is not the first time this is actually the second time they closed my account and stated that I violated terms and conditions.

After approximately 10-12 days I called Cash App to start a dispute for my refund. Several weeks pasted so I called Cash App checking the status. I was told that it had been refunded back to my account. I asked why wasnt I told. They replied for me to check my email. I did & I wasnt satisfied because I didnt see in my mobile app where my money was refunded. It didnt add up. So after calling them countless times telling them my money was not returned, they put in my mobile app that the money was returned the same day which is impossible. They did that after I told them I was going to report them to a higher authority. They did this again XXXX XXXX. I put {$15.00} on an XXXX account at XXXX XXXX The fee for doing that is {$3.00}, but the charged me {$15.00}.…

I am filing this complaint against Cash App, operated by XXXX XXXX XXXX, for the wrongful and unexplained closure of my account. I received a notification that my Cash App account was being closed due to a violation of the Terms of XXXX. However, Cash App has repeatedly refused to provide any specific details about what I allegedly did wrong, despite my multiple good-faith requests for clarification. Since the closure notice, I have contacted Cash App support on several occasions and specifically asked for the exact reason and evidence of the claimed violation. Each time, the response has been the same generic statement : that I violated the Terms of XXXX, with no further explanation, no examples of prohibited conduct, and no reference to any specific transaction, message, or activity. I have never received any prior warning, flag, or notice of any issue with my account before the sudden closure. I also submitted XXXX formal appeals through Cash Apps internal process.…
On XX/XX/year> at approximately XXXX XXXX, I received a payment into my Cash App account. Around XXXX XXXX on XX/XX/year>, unauthorized activity occurred on my account. My account information was changed, including linked financial details being removed and replaced, and funds totaling approximately {$990.00} were transferred out to another account without my permission. At the time of these transactions, my device and personal accounts had been compromised by malware. This allowed an unknown third party to gain access to my Cash App account and perform these transactions without my knowledge or authorization. In addition to my Cash App, other personal information and accounts ( including email access ) were also affected, confirming this was a broader security compromise and not an action I initiated. I immediately contacted Cash App support and reported the transactions as unauthorized.…

At the time these transactions occurred ( between approximately XXXXXXXX XXXX and XXXXXXXX XXXX ), I was asleep at home preparing to wake up and take my child to XXXX I woke up around XXXXXXXX XXXX I discovered that my account balance had been completely drained.

On XX/XX/year>, I used my Cash App debit card to purchase auto parts from XXXX XXXX totaling {$290.00}. The items I received were incorrect. The merchant acknowledged the issue and provided return labels. I returned the items, and the shipment was delivered and signed for on XX/XX/year> ( XXXX tracking available ). The merchant issued only a partial refund of {$71.00} and failed to refund the remaining balance of approximately {$220.00}. I contacted the merchant requesting a full refund, but they refused further action. I filed a dispute and appeal with Cash App and provided proof of return and delivery. Cash App denied both the dispute and the appeal and stated their decision was final. I am requesting reimbursement of the remaining balance and a formal investigation into both the merchants failure to issue a full refund and Cash Apps handling of the dispute.
Between XX/XX/XXXX and XX/XX/XXXX or XXXX there was over {$1700.00} that was transferred for my bank checking account to Cash app and while I did move some money over I created a spreadsheet to list all the charges day by day and there was a XXXX and I believe {$50.00} discrepancy and I sent that to them. I asked if they needed additional records and I could not get anybody on the phone. I spoke with them several times. I have an XXXX XXXX that I can forward along with the spreadsheet I created. I asked them if they needed bank records they stated no and then they gave me an XXXX number to call after denying the claim to see what documents were utilized and after trying to contact them several times I was just going through the runaround for over XXXX minutes. I asked them if I could record the call to share with my lawyer. They did not like that and they disconnected on me, but nobody can tell me what documents they used to verify it and I have my bank documents.…
I am filing a complaint against Afterpay regarding a dispute for a purchase made through their service with a merchant ( XXXX XXXX ). I attempted to cancel my order after receiving the XXXX XXXX because I was unable to complete the molds. The merchants refund policy clearly states that if the XXXX XXXX has been shipped, a cancellation is still eligible for a partial refund with a cancellation fee ( 15 % ). I explicitly requested cancellation and agreed to the cancellation fee in writing. In response, the merchant stated that they could not issue a full refund due to the XXXX XXXX being shipped, which confirms that a partial refund was applicable under their policy. However, despite this, the merchant ultimately refused to provide any refund and instead attempted to continue the order by offering additional kits and discounts.…
On XX/XX/2026 I made an ACH transfer of {$12000.00} from XXXX XXXX Bank to CashApp. Since it was an XXXX transfer CashApp imposed a XXXX day hold on the funds ( XX/XX/2026 ). The money was used to buy bitcoin. On XX/XX/XXXX I received an email from CashApp saying the hold had been extended to XX/XX/2026. I called CashApp customer support to get an explanation of the change. I made at least XXXX separate calls to obtain information. Each time customer support said I had to talk to the bitcoin team. On XX/XX/XXXX I had sold the bitcoin converting it to cash. At that point I had {$12000.00} cash in my CashApp account with a XX/XX/XXXX hold on it. Most times when I called customer support I was transferred to The XXXX XXXX. The problem was that the transfer didn't work, the call dropped on transfer, and I would have to call back and go through the whole process again. The first time I talked to The XXXX XXXX they blamed the bank saying the funds had not been released.…

My family and my Cashapps were deactivated. I called and submitted an appeal. I also was inquiring of the reason for deactivating my accounts and they could not provide me any information.

Consumer Financial Protection Bureau Complaint Company : Cash App ( Block, Inc. ) Product/Service : Money Transfer / Mobile Payment Service Issue : Account Suspension / Closure Without Explanation & Lack of Access / Transparency Complaint : I am filing this complaint against Cash App regarding the sudden suspension/closure of my account without a clear explanation or meaningful opportunity to resolve the issue. My account was recently suspended, and I was informed that this action was due to an alleged violation of the Terms of Service. However, Cash App has refused to provide any specific details regarding what actions or transactions led to this decision. This lack of transparency prevents me from understanding or correcting any alleged issue and raises serious concerns about fairness and due process.…

Between XX/XX/year>, I transferred funds from my bank account to Cash App, which were then used to purchase Bitcoin and sent to a fraudulent third-party investment platform introduced through XXXX. This was part of a scam. I was advised I was being assisted in learning how to trade bitcoin/ cryptocurrency. After realizing I was being defrauded, I immediately contacted Cash App support.

I've reach out to Cash App on many occasions regarding their handing handling of my pending {$100.00} payment ( Transaction # XXXX ), which has remained unresolved for 41 days despite my full cooperation and numerous attempts to contact their team. TIMELINE OF EVENTS : XX/XX/year> : A {$100.00} payment ( Transaction # XXXX ) was flagged by Cash App Compliance. I contacted support the same day and was told a refund would be issued by XX/XX/year>. XX/XX/year> : I responded via email confirming this was a legitimate domestic peer-to-peer payment to a recipient in Virginia. The XXXX flag emoji referenced in the compliance inquiry was used inadvertently and had no bearing on the nature or destination of the payment. XX/XX/year> : No refund was issued. I contacted support again. XX/XX/year> : I was told the case had been escalated and I would receive my funds within one week.…
On XX/XX/year>, I made a purchase at XXXX XXXX in the amount of {$530.00}. The transaction was completed in-store but processed as an online order at the register. Approximately one week later, I was contacted by the merchant and informed that the items were out of stock and on backorder with no definite restock date. I was given the option to wait, choose alternative items, or receive a refund. I chose a full refund and was told it would be processed immediately over the phone, with an expected timeframe of seven business days. After seven business days passed with no refund received, I contacted the store and was told the refund appeared to have been processed on their end. I was then directed to contact corporate customer service. Over the next several weeks, I attempted to resolve the issue directly with the merchant, calling multiple times per week and receiving inconsistent responses. On XX/XX/year>, I visited the store in person for further clarification.…

I am submitting this complaint regarding the handling of my unauthorized transaction dispute and the subsequent closure of my Cash App account. I reported multiple transactions on my account that were not authorized by me after my phone was stolen and my account was accessed without my permission. I promptly reported the incident and fully cooperated with the dispute process. During the investigation, Cash App determined that some of the disputed transactions were unauthorized and issued refunds in my favor. While I appreciate that those transactions were credited back to my account, several other transactions from the same incident were denied. Because all of the disputed transactions occurred during the same time period and under the same circumstances of unauthorized access, the partial denial is inconsistent and raises concerns about the accuracy and fairness of the investigation.…
This is by far one of the most unprofessional ways to handle things I ever have dealt with, the day my money got taken out of my account I called them and told them what happened they told me to dispute the money, which I have, and they reversed 1 out of 6 and said the other ones I authorized, they also took money and bought XXXX XXXX and sent it to themselves which I figure that money is gone, I dont even know anybody in XXXX why out of no where would I send money to XXXX not just any amount either the most I ever had in this account makes no sense and they continue to deny me I have since lost my Truck and on the verge of losing my place to stay as I was laid off during this period, I really need answer and I need them fast!!
I am filing this complaint regarding multiple unauthorized transactions on my Cash App ( Block Inc ) account totaling approximately {$2500.00}. I reported these transactions promptly and initiated a dispute. However, Cash App failed to provide provisional credit while the investigation is ongoing and issued inconsistent decisions across similar transactions. Specifically, several transactions from the same merchant ( including XXXX and XXXX ) within the same timeframe were treated differently. Transactions under approximately {$25.00} were approved and refunded, while transactions above that threshold were denied. This indicates the decisions may have been based on internal thresholds rather than a consistent and reasonable investigation as required under Regulation E. I also have reason to believe my account information may have been compromised due to a potential data breach or unauthorized access, which further supports my claim that these transactions were not authorized.…
This is in response to Cash App 's response on my original claim # XXXX. I was not provided any way to respond to Cash App 's denial of my claim. The CFPB portal only displayed there response, and there was no option available for me to reply, dispute there findings, or provide additional evidence. This prevented me from fully participating in the resolution process. Transaction amount {$2500.00} Date of transaction XX/XX/year> Cash App case # XXXX Cash App denied my dispute on XX/XX/year> then later stated to the CFPB that this case is still open. This complaint is related to my original claim # XXXX. Cash App provided a misleading response stating my case is still open, even though they already sent me a denial letter they denied my dispute. I was not given the option to respond, so I am submitting this to request further review and correction. In my original case Cash App denied my dispute and refused reimbursement.…
