I got this app to send money quickly without having to wait in lines at the store. Unfortunately it only worked a few times. After that it would say the money would be there in minutes but once I paid it would change to say it would take 3 days. After the 3 days it would either cancel or refund the money. Which is good because I wouldn't lose the money but it also never made it to my family members. I reached out to them asking why this kept happening but all they did was track my order.

I give up on this app, it worked great then all of sudden it doesnt matter what credit card or debit card I use it is being blocked. doesnt matter if its wifi or without wifi. its not the card, and I have tried customer service but give up on them. my card is not locked, and its not the bank. Either way now need to figure something else out. I use to love the app, and now everything is denied. thanks

And what's more if you leave the app to verify the
