Square up is a company that “STEALS MONEY”. They are “FRAUDELENT” and find ways to hold on to money that is large and not pay. They use the “PRETEXT” of verifying funds. We are going to file a lawsuit (Class action) at the Attorney General’s Office immediately.
They are the WORST PAYMENT PROCESSOR. PLEASE BEWARE
I ran a credit card purchase for $6926.
they Deposited $1905.95
they said they have to hold $4777.49 until June 16th
Who does that ? This is CRIMINAL ACTIVITY !!!
I tried to issue my customer a refund and the website said they will take the full amount of the transaction out of my bank account even if the full amount has not yet been deposited.
SOMEONE START A LAWSUIT – I WILL JOIN YOU!
I AM DEVASTATED. NEVER BEEN TREATED LIKE THIS IN BUSINESS BEFORE.

I sit back and I read all the complaints that people are having and I’m saying B.S.!!!! I have been using Square now for a year and a few months and have had zero problems. I have not experienced a non-swipe $1000.00 Plus transaction so If for someone reason people are having problems with that area than just make sure you swipe the card! I can honestly say that my biggest swipe was $12,300 with no problems. I swiped on a Monday and had funds in account before Tuesday 6am!!!! I first receive an option to send an instant receipt. It records my destination where the swipe took place. I can take a picture and match it up along with the transactions. It tells you right away that square has charged their account. Just so you people all know that it really depends on your bank and how long they get to their deposits!! FYI Bank of America works like this. If All of my square swiped transactions are done before 8:00pm than All of my money will be their the.next morning usually around 6 am.. It works.. The people who have problems I wish you better luck and you also might want to check you local and state banking laws because that could be a Reason as well. Some banks without you even knowing it will have security limits on purchases and withdraws. So when they see a big transaction they accept the purchase but wait for the funds to be verified. Any questions send to email.
I really have to question any positive reviews on this company.
First of all why is someone who is Soooo HAPPY with them even checking out the background of this company? Most people don’t do that until they get burned and definitely not when they have been using them for over a year with NO PROBLEMS. I know that some people make money writing positive reviews for a living. That would be the ONLY reason I could guess as it is obvious how awful this company is. They have an F RATING at the BETTER BUSINESS BUREAU
They held over 50k of our funds and it was THEM who held it. It had nothing to do with our bank or state banking laws as you suggest. We refunded as much of this to our customers as they would allow us to and recharged using another merchant account. It has been OVER 90 DAYS AND THEY STILL OWE US OVER $10,000.
We we e-mail and ask the status their reply is “Check your old e-mails to see the status”
Yes ~ great company ~ NOT!
Pete W,
I applaud your good fortune! However, the good folks who have commented here, myself included, are not idiots as you seem to imply. I do not know where you are located but I am an hours drive from Square, I also have a merchant account with B of A, and in 20 years of business have never experienced such blatant disregard for others, particularly customers, in a business setting. They have been holding a mere $2500 of my money for the past 30 days (today is the moment of truth) and repeated attempts to resolve this issue and communicate with this company have been futile. I am furious with Square, but particularly myself for not carefully reading their legally questionable contract. I am sure that had 90% of the folks who signed up for this service made themselves aware of the details of this unscrupulous company, their contract, and their customer disservice, Square would no longer exist.
DO NOT USE SQUAREUP! They are AWFUL!!!!!!!!!!
Do not use this company!! We decided to use this company because the rate was good and no monthly fee was even better. We ran our first transaction (over $1000) a week ago and nothing has hit our account. Let’s see here…they used the “24 hour deposit” as a great selling point. This is a bunch of BS! There is a phone number that I had to search the internet for (nowhere on their website) and EVERY option you choose gets you to an answering machine. We have sent multiple emails, phone calls, messages…any way to get in contact with a live person… and guess what….NO LUCK! DO NOT USE SQUAREUP! They are AWFUL!!!!!!!!!! There number is (415) 375-3176..GOOD LUCK!
I have not received payment from Squareup – and believe they are using funds for personal use. Who do I contact for assistance?
