Garbage deposited some money that never posted then customer service said I didn’t have a account al

Run they are crooks took my money on 2 occasions and played dumb even though he said oh yes I see you deposited $30 then said I had to wait 6 days to see if it post when it didn’t they claimed they could find no record of me having a account.there are fair better money apps

Stay away!

They will freeze your account because you tried to get your money out of Skrill and into your bank account. They claim you to unfreeze it you need to verify, but once you send in the required pics no one unfreezes your account.

Love it

Use Skrill all the time, send all my casino winnings here and can send money here from pretty much any other money app!

Scam alert

This company is a scam! Everything on their page is an ad advertisement for online gambling. But any money you move there cannot be used for online gambling. Once you have money in the wallet, they permanently close your account. And send you to customer service to try and get your money back, but you can’t authenticate because they’ve closed your account.

Horrible

This has to be the worst prepaid card I’ve ever had and I’ve had them all.. I thought net spend sucked but Skrill is horrible , customer service is a joke and don’t help at all. I was charged 175$ for 20 dollars worth of gas and I’m getting the run around from them and they keep blaming the merchant but I spline with Skrill and the man I initially spoke with said the usually put a hold on a larger amount but come on man 175 sold for 20 worth of gas doesn’t even make sense.. they are doing something illegally and I strongly advise anybody that is considering dealing with Skrill to reconsider

Wow

Not one good experience

False advertising

So I signed up under the impression that transfers and deposits would just be faster like instantly so they advertised well it’s been. An hour where my money at

PLEASE DONT DOWNLOAD

I tried sending money to someone and they not only restricted my account but closed it with the £330 still inside. I’ve not got an email from them like they instructed i would get I can’t get in contact with a live agent . I just read other reviews and they have similar experiences this is the worst thing ever I don’t know if I’ll ever see my money again they closed it for no reason while I had money in my wallet PLEASE AVOID

Great for online gambling

Fastest banking system for online gambling redemption’s

Can’t get money back

Beware. If you put $ in you won’t be able to get it back to your bank

Extremely difficult to cancel ! Do not use ! Can’t cancel !!

Absolutely horrible to get cancelled!! They will charge you rather than cancel your account! Please do not use !!

It doesn’t work properly

It’s not very user-friendly
It’s too much of a faff

SCAMMERS

they take your money from you and won’t give you access to your account with the money stolen

Scam

Trying to do one small transaction and Skrill keeps asking for more and more and more verifications with more and more and more money.

I complete one verification and they ask for another. Do it and they ask for another for more money.

Now I have money just sitting in an account I will never be able to access cause it’s “restricted”

What a scam.

Not friendly

You can’t transfer funds between apps like you can with PayPal or Venmo. Not even my bank recognizes it.

Terrible

I have been trying to register for the past two days now and it’s really frustrating the heck out of me at first they kept saying that they were sending a verification email that I never got then I kept pushing the resend button till it said I attempted to many times I eventually today restarted my device and tried again finally got it finished everything and at the end I need a verification text code and as I am writing this review guess what still not receiving a code I never have any trouble receiving emails or texts I checked several times and it’s the correct information what’s next I’m scared that if I ever do get a account is my money going to be safe please their is no one to contact to help either just insane
