Title: Extremely Disappointing Dispute Handling and Customer Support
Two customers previously opened disputes that were already addressed through the proper channels. One customer was even refunded directly, and that information was communicated to Affirm.
Somehow, those same disputes were reopened a second time, despite BOTH customers confirming they never initiated another dispute.
Instead of investigating why disputes were reopened without the customers requesting it, Stripe has repeatedly pushed the responsibility back onto me, demanding that I resubmit evidence for issues I had already addressed.
I even had a recorded phone conversation with a Stripe representative who provided assurances about how this situation would be handled and its impact on my account. Now, through email, I’m receiving responses that contradict those assurances and essentially tell me I need to go through the entire process again.
Meanwhile, my business is dealing with a negative balance and potential financial consequences, and my customers are being inconvenienced by having to provide written confirmations for disputes they never reopened.
What makes this especially frustrating is that Stripe continues explaining its standard dispute policies instead of addressing the actual problem: Why were these disputes reopened when neither customer requested it?
I’m not asking for special treatment. I’m asking for accountability, a legitimate investigation, and for my business not to be financially penalized over an issue that neither I nor my customers caused.
For a company that handles businesses’ money, this level of support and unwillingness to meaningfully address the underlying issue is incredibly concerning.
I’ve spent an unreasonable amount of time trying to resolve something that should have been investigated internally from the beginning.
I am now considering escalating this through legal counsel and formal complaints because I have lost confidence in Stripe’s willingness to resolve this appropriately.
Business owners should be extremely cautious about relying on a payment processor that handles situations like this.
