A+ Service Tyty
Interface and Customer service are a joke
So naturally, I've needed to contact customer support several times because if the app is being a diva, I need help to figure out what's going on. And every single time, I am met with the most clueless people I have ever come into contact with in customer service. And I say that as someone who used to be in customer service. These people can’t answer anything that a toddler couldn’t already figure out.
I recently had an issue where an order wasn't going through because the hotel booking site was putting a $2 hold on the card, after which I couldn’t check out. And so on Sezzle, it tells me you have X amount of money to spend on this specific website after the two-dollar hold.
So I tried booking the hotel the next day, multiple times. It wouldn’t go through even though the amount I requested was well over what I needed to cover both the hold and the actual payment.
So I spoke to support the day before because that time I didn’t have enough to cover the hold as well, just the exact amount. And she said as long as I had the hold amount baked into the price I requested, I could just cancel it and then re-reserve it.
But the problem is that when the hold happens, it won't let you cancel the transaction for 12 hours while it holds your down-payment hostage. So I had to wait 12 hours, the hotel price went up, and then I was finally able to cancel it and request a new amount for well over what I needed. I tried booking it, and I had the same problem. Except this time I had $20 extra cushion on top of the cost and hold.
So I'm on with support for like 40 minutes. They won't just straight up say that any time you buy something with a hold, it's not going to work. Nor would they answer why the app was telling me that I still had all of this money to use at that site with the rest of the pay request, but then it wouldn't let me use it.
So either you're lying, you're not understanding how your own interface works, or the app is lying. Probably all three lol. But this is the information that I am being told from your app, so you need to tell me why it's not working and what I can do to fix it, or just tell me that you can't make purchases when a site puts a hold on the card. That’s a ridiculous policy but at least it would be an actual concrete answer and not just bsing me so I waste another day on this.
Because it's just a temporary two-dollar check to see that the card is working, and it should not negate the entire transaction. But I was told multiple incorrect things, then this delightful customer service person just kept saying the same thing over and over: “just cancel, just cancel, and redo it.”
How is that supposed to help when I've already done that??? TWICE. If it's gonna do this every single time, then what is the purpose of me canceling it and having you steal my money for the rest of the day with nothing to show?
I also told them (and shared a screen shot) that I can't cancel for 12 hours since using the $2 registered it as a sale. And then they were telling me that I could just submit a new request, even though their platform only lets one happen at a time. That is the most basic rule on this platform, and if support doesn’t even know that, then how are they supposed to help customers utilize your awful platform?
I’m so tired of paying $25 a month for the absolute worst customer service and app I have ever used in my entire life. I shouldn't have to explain something to someone 30 different times and still have them repeat useless information that’s irrelevant. And then they told me that they were going to kick it up to a manager and then they just ignored the chat. So now the hotel I was supposed to book days ago has gone up over $100, and sezzle had $200 of mine in limbo for the canceled transactions because of the hold and wait, so I wasn’t able to just book it on my own. Now I’ve lost the hotel I want.
Not once did I get a single sincere apology or attempt to actually help determine what was going on. And let’s not forget the time when I was actively contacting customer service to ask how to reschedule a payment and they hit me with $100 in fees while I was waiting for an answer.
I have never in my life seen a shadier company. Thanks for ruining my vacation, sezzle! Idk why I’m surprised. You might as well just get rid of your customer service department because somehow they're less helpful than the robot, which is truly sad.
Can’t even get past sign up
