Terrible! The chat option is useless. 25 minutes ago they said I'm next in line and now they ask me if I'm still there every 5 minutes, I type yes and 5 minutes later the same thing all over again. I'm starting to get the impression that the chatbot is just waiting until you're not quick enough to respond to throw you out of the queue. I want to cancel a transfer as the recipient is also experiencing huge difficulties. The instructions on canceling are vague and the way to cancel is not obvious

The app used to work ok, but I cannot log in anymore. I've been getting the same unhelpful "something went wrong" error message for months. I've tried to clear cache, uninstall, restart, nothing fixes it. They don't have email or chat for customer service so you're left having to try to call and wait hours on the line. Hopeful leaving a review will prompt them to reach out.

App was working great before but recently it has just been difficult to use. EVERY!! time I try to send money, I get the message 'something went wrong,unable to process payment. Try again or try a different card'. It's so frustrating because nothing is wrong with my cards. I'm considering to stop using this app and try another way of sending money. Takes me hours of trying, sometimes days to be able to have success. I've tried keeping the app updated, uninstalling, reinstalling. Inconvenient app
