Clumsy app

Poor implementation profiting on unfortunate circumstances of other people

Can’t make a deposit

Deposits not working. I have been unable to communicate with my loved one for two months due to not being able to make a deposit online. The app and the website don’t work. I have tried setting up a new account with a new number and email and it still doesn’t work. They always say they can take the card info over the phone which i refuse due to someone using my card information to make personal purchases. They need to do better and f
ix the issue.

Punishes Users For Long Messages

It cost $0.20 to send a message with a maximum of up to 2,000 characters. However, they punish you for sending too long of a message. If you send one over 1,000 of the 2,000 allowable characters they will leave it pending for days or may never review it at all. When short messages, in contrast, are approved in hours. Which has to in some way be against apples ToS since we are paying for the service.
