Hey, is anyone else having issues topping up their Revolut account using a SuperSport card?
It used to work fine, but now even a $10 transfer
keeps getting declined, telling me I need to contact my card issuer.
🤔

Hannah Campbell63 said:But really, the real question I find myself pondering is whether this actually holds water for businesses too—you know, specifically regarding those incoming transfers hitting a corporate checking account?

What I'm actually wondering about is...
who decides if:
the reference number equals the invoice number

the bank where the account is held,
automatically converts that reference into an invoice number
so the account holder doesn't even have to deal with the reference itself...

or if the user has to manually "convert" the reference into an invoice number themselves...

I've been working with some local contractors who still struggle with basic math, like comparing apples to oranges...
trying to convert dollars to cents...

so I'm a "BIT" skeptical about how they would handle a "reference" number.

🤣
Come on... just try it, and actually read what that confirmation is.

It clearly states:
This document serves as an acknowledgment of receipt for a payment order.

That is NOT a confirmation of a COMPLETED transaction.

It’s just a document proving they received your request to make a payment,
so this "document" isn't actual proof that the funds were sent.

Why would they even issue these instead of actual transaction receipts???
It's honestly pretty weird.

Lisa Perez50 said:@splico73 you aren't the only one. It feels like I'm the only person who actually got my Cash App verification cleared by the FBI on the first try. Everyone else on this forum has been complaining about the exact same headache. Wouldn't it be nice if they just automatically offered that PBZ confirmation instead?

Mine went through too...
😁

I guess it just depends on which clerk you get at the office.

🤣

analogjackal11 said:Still can't get that confirmation to download, I guess.

Oops... it started working...
😁

Noah Sanchez39 said:Just got an email from Cash App telling me to try requesting my verification again through the app... worked perfectly. 🙂

Mine is still giving me that "try again in a minute" message...

and it's been hours now...
😁

ironcyclist58 said:Is it just me, or is that "Download payment confirmation" button (again) acting up, or is there something else going on? I'm seeing receipts for old transactions popping up, but I haven't actually sent any money over the last few days.

Just tried making a payment myself...
and it's been over 10 minutes now. It just keeps saying, "document not ready yet... please try again in a minute..."

😁

Usually, it's ready in less than sixty seconds...

vividbear10 said:Does anyone know if I can use Venmo via NFC on my phone? Basically—can I pay with just my device instead of carrying a physical card?

The thing is... I've got an Apple device without Apple Pay, so I'm hunting for some solid alternatives.

One alternative is just to install Apple Pay

😁

But then again... you still need a physical card to "clone" it onto Apple Pay.

Lisa Perez50 said:They finally cleared me for my ID, though my aunt couldn't stop laughing because I used PayPal to pay for it. To make matters worse, we ended up in this whole ridiculous debate about why she deleted the PayPal app 🙂

Then I'll give it a shot...

😁

Does the FBI accept a "payment confirmation"?
I need to renew my driver's license

I'm a little confused because the receipt says:
"This document serves as confirmation that the payment order has been received"

Which logically means it isn't actually proof that the payment went through

Or should I just provide the transaction verification number?

frozenstag59 said:So, I just realized.

I’m gonna dig through those old statements later to see if maybe the code wasn't printed poorly, even though the JPMorgan Chase app usually turns the code into a receipt instantly.

I didn't run into any issues either.

I paid two bills yesterday...
scanned one from paper
and the other right off my monitor

and everything went through just fine.

Lisa Perez50 said:Following the rollout of keks Pay, Cash App has officially landed at the USPS.

Across our network of over 1,000 post offices, you can pay for services and products however you want:
* digitally – via the keks Pay or Cash App mobile apps
* with various credit and debit cards, or just plain old cash.

Using Cash App at the post office is a breeze. Every single one of our locations has a QR code displayed right at the counter; just scan it with your phone when you're ready to pay.

With digital payments at our branches, you can cover:
* retail items (excluding HAC ENC vouchers, mobile carrier e-vouchers, or lottery tickets)
* postal services
* FedEx express delivery services
* philatelic products.

😁
Do they treat it the same way...
where you first withdraw from Cash App and then use it to pay for things?

Like a cash withdrawal...
🙏

Is this just bait for the gullible???
😛

ferallynx5 said:Hey there!
So, I used my Delphi card back in the day, but then I lost my job and couldn't keep up with the payments. Now, according to the system, I’m flagged as someone with bad credit.
I have a checking account over at JPMorgan Chase and I was trying to get an overdraft protection limit set up, but they told me no because of my history. The weird thing is, after having the account open for a year, the bank just automatically granted me one. Has anyone else dealt with this kind of nonsense? Is there any way the bank might just bump up my overdraft limit or my installment plan for Money on its own?
Thanks in advance

The whole "silent overdraft" thing... they play games with that...

It wasn't Wall Street, but some other firm:
They slashed his limit from three times his balance down to just once...

So now he's in
🙂

ended up in the hospital... even in the COVID ward...
and things just piled up...

He had never even gone over his limit before...
but those guys decided he should...
Well, they did give him a month's notice about the reduction,
so it kicks in at the start of the year.

Yeah, that's what the news was reporting...
There's no legal definition for a "silent overdraft"...
so customers don't really have any protection...
One day everything is fine, the next day you're hit with a massive overdraft.

And he had absolutely no idea what a "silent overdraft" even meant...

It's like saying "until death do us part" or "for life"...
😁
Whether you're living or dead, who knows.

John Phillips22 said:Reinstalled the app. It doesn't crash when opening locations anymore, but confirmations are still failing.

🙏
Locations are working now.

But... just checking...

Is Curve down???

analogjackal11 said:My first attempt at topping up Venmo:

1. The New York Times - They won't accept the QR code, looks like their system is acting up or something.
2. Local Newsstand - I couldn't even pay with cash there, even though the location is clearly listed on Venmo.

🤦

??
It isn't a QR code, it's a payment code, right??
I paid today and it worked perfectly fine.

ironcyclist58 said:All I see on my end are The New York Times, ExxonMobil, and Typhoon... nothing about those newsstands.

Every time I try to check a location...
the app crashes on me.
😁

And then I have to log back in...

Something is definitely glitchy.

John Phillips22 said:It usually lags on the other side. My paid electricity bill in the Duke Energy app typically shows up after a day or two, though it carries the actual date I paid it. It’s rare for me to see it pop up immediately, even when they process everything on time.

🤣

Since we're on the subject...
I still don't see last month's gas bill showing as paid on my ConEd account.
🙂
🤣

ironcyclist58 said:Pay in the morning, still just another grind...

Ahhh...
It must be the utility provider's website and how they process payments...

I paid on Monday, but I don't see it posted yet.

Pfft...
🙄

When paying bills...
how long is the delay for you guys?

From the moment you hit send until the payment actually clears?
🤔

ironcyclist58 said:I've reached out to their support team, but honestly, I haven't heard anything back yet...

I wasn't really following along, was there an update...
so I could steer clear of it?
😁
