Skrill

Entered the wrong ATM pin and got locked out of my account. This really shouldn't be this big of an issue. I uploaded my state ID and my FOID card (federal ID), and they won't take them. I don't know where this company is located, but I use my state ID all the time. I called them and what do you know, they don't accept state ID's. Now I'm stuck trying to recover my money in my account and its ridiculous. I called them 3 times, they say they are located in the U.S. and listed- not buying that one.

Its very simple, they will block your money, and you won't get it back, even after you send them all of the ID documents, especially if you have a non white sounding name.

Skrill is a company trying to turn out to be a serious transmission company, it can work but it's a lottery. Sooner or later, there will be a problem and then you will not get help as a customer.

Bring over $ 2500 this money disappeared like in a dark hole when I conducted a banking operation to them. In the last month, the suspects have not solved this. Do not know if it will be solved either. They ask for proof of the transfer that I sent to them, this proof comes from my bank with then refuses to accept this. It feels like talking to the bank mafia, and you must try to prove to the mafia that you are right, but they are both judges and prosecutors, and they do not light on you at all. That is, impossible to solve any problems. So if you do not want to lose any money, use some serious payment service instead.

If you are lucka you can succes with some transfer, but when problem occour you will never use skrill again.

Literally the worst e-wallet I have EVER used. I tried to verify my account by sending a photo of my ID so I could have a Virtual Credit Card, and they PERMANENTLY CLOSED my account for "not being over 18" when it clearly shows on my card that I am.
I sent an e-mail, to which they replied with "unfortunately the account associated with the e-mail address from which you are contacting us cannot be reactivated".
Makes no sense, I don't know what else to do.
Please avoid Skrill at all cost, there are MUCH better options around.

Money was taken out of my checking account by this company and when the bank contacted them about the fraudulent charge they refused to assist in the investigation.

Used this platform to withdraw money from binance. Unfortunately, it's hard to get verified and when I use the Transfer option it doesn't give me and option to use my Skrill wallet. I don't know what other platformsI can use to send money frm Skrill.

I was recommended to use Skrill by a colleague with whom to send money if I have this account, and I spent 20 min. And within 20 min, no way in hell would I recommend as this service is pathetic and liars, as well as, rubbish system.
Story in short: registration > verification made via email link and uploading your ID and verification confirmed done by email > enjoy the benefits > account restricted and email received to contact their support page > contact them, whilst downloaded the app & install > login via mobile while waiting for CS app login pops up password must be changed > email to reset password received asking I requested to reset password (untrue) > retry login via web and all worked fine > CS agent is now available to take the call.

Now the fun part, I described the above steps which happened, and agent simply goes via verification, and he says"... hold on... from what I see here, your account has been deleted for violating our terms and conditions", lol. My response, under what grounds, he replies, can´t say on the phone, will send you an email instead. I replied, "when will I get this email?", and his answer, "after the call in a minute",... never received after hours gone by, and account is still accessible but restricted. If you want and have time to play drama, then this is your one stop shop, but my experience, is lost in words, as they have good reviews in other sites, and heard transaction speed is seconds from sender to recipient, however, I rather find someone who is trusted and not clowns with what I experienced.

They suddenly shut down your account and force you to prove your identity (which they strangely always refuse because of simple excuses). So in the end your money is gone, "perfect"! And now I am just afraid they use my datas for criminal activities, because they BLACKMAILED me to shoot a selfie of mine next to my identity card if I want my account activities (money) back. And ofc they need like always for responding.

Skrill is the worst credit card service ever.
I was just a client and I have a lot of bad experience already. They send you a cheap card with no lastname on it and the app deposit doesn't work.

They answer you after days and don't solve any problems and they keep telling you that it's on you while it's not. They ignore your questions and evoid to solve the problem.

NEVER GET A CARD AT THEM!
You will regret it.

They literally give you an answer that doesn't make sense. They have a stupid client service.

DO NOT PURCHASE THIS!

Beware doing business with Skrill.

After an 8 year business relationship and giving them millions of dollars worth of business, they suddenly blocked our accounts, then terminated the agreement without explanation.

DO NOT USE SKRILL FOR BUSINESS.

While arbitrarily blocking customers for no reason might be OK in Russia (yes they are Russian), it's not OK in the rest of the world.

As of writing this review, our accounts a blocked again. We have managed to removed most of the money, but they have blocked our access to several thousand dollars and have so far refused to allow us access to track and withdraw the remaining funds.
SCAM

Skrill has to be the most backwards, half-assed, $#*! terrible website or service to use for money. EXTREMELY predatory site design is set up to take your money and make it as difficult as possible to return. We are in 2023 taking my money is just as easy as sending it back, theres no need for these ridiculous $#*!ing rules, why would i not be able to send money to a merchant's email using this site theres no $#*!ing difference between that and a person's email, why would i not be able to add your stupid $#*! virtual card to my apple wallet, why would there be a $#*!ING $10 LIMIT on my withdrawal through a bank AND WHY THE $#*! WOULD YOU CHARGE ME $5 FOR A FEE & HAVE TO WAIT 6 DAYS FOR THE MONEY YOU TOOK IN 2 SECONDS.

I registered and tried to deposit money with my card, but they keep declining and want to connect my bank account. Because they are so good at protecting it! Yes, scam...

A month ago I got scamed by a great ninntendo switch offer on facebook. I been always very careful with too good to be true prices but because it was advertised on facebook and you could pay using Skrill I thought in the worst case I will get my money back because skrill is like paypal. I was wrong! Skrill doesn't care about customers and their customer money protection is ab ABSOLUTE lie. After about 10 messages at the end they said their merchant isn't abswering and that's all they can do. Thaks for nothing Skrill! DO NOT USE SKRILL! If you want a real protection paypal is the way! If I can manage to convince 100 people to not fall for that scam company I will have made world a better place.

Skrill stole my money. No verification needed when u deposit money in your account. But when u want to withdraw they asked all kinds of documents. I sent them all sorts of address proves with all the requirements ( 90 days period, full name, full date, clear address) and all has been rejected and replied to me what was written in their page how to verify address. I sent electricity and water bills for the last month and it was rejected. I sent government paper also with my taxes information and address and name and all still not accepted with no reason. Their reply is so silly and lazy and you can understand that they don't care about their customers because they copy paste their page how to verify the address as a reply with no real answer! Stay away from these scammers and save your money. My account is frozen with my money in it and I cannot withdraw the money. I also tried to call them not for free and they have a machine that answers and keep you holding. I kept waiting 10 minutes and I closed after. SCAMMERS ALL THE WAY!

Customer support is horrible.
They will close the tickets without even waiting for follow up comments.
2 tickets already closed without any resolution.
Had to open a 3rd one now.

Received $60 but cannot widthdraw the money to bank or credit card.
Emailed them, sent message via facebook page but they ignore me. My money is stuck.

This is a fraud company! Stay away! Their service must be reported to the FBI and people should file lawsuits against them! I only tried it for a little amount of money but gosh I'm happy I didn't go bigger with it. Imagine! It didn't even build trust first, I kept my funds for later withdrawal and when I checked my account again, I find 00,00 dollars in it. I contacted them and they said the money has been taken as a funding fee of keeping my account open. Wtf? How in the actual $#*! do they have the right to do that? They keep updating their terms of service to match their fraud activities whenever they want they send the customer a link of their terms pretending to prove that they're right, but they're not! Don't do this mistake. Report them to the FBI, interpol and your local police stations. They're professional thieves and ready to steal your money anytime! The positive reviews here or anywhere should be from fake accounts they create to pretend that they're legit and safe! Be aware. Stay away, keep your money safe!

They take advantage of peoples money. I open an account with them they said they have a 10% charge which makes sense but the went on taking another £100 in my account saying that it another charge for something I don't even understand. Please, people be aware of SKRILL THEY ARE CRIMINALS AND THEY WILL TAKE YOUR MONEY AND NOT REFUND YOU BACK.

The only thing you will keep getting from them is stories after stories. STAY AWAY FROM THE SKRILL AND KEEP YOUR MONEY AWAY FROM THEM. THEY ARE CRIMINALS.

After you transfer the money, they block it and ask you to go through a complicated verification process.it will be my first and last to deal with them.

I got screwed up by a person and I reported the fraud to the company Skrill but they never gave me a satisfying response. I got that following statement: "The matter has been handled by our security department accordingly." I called their customer service and told them that I'm not happy with their weak feedback. I asked a simple question "If the person is blocked in their system so that he can't screw up other people anymore?" and the customer service clerk wasn't willing to answer my question properly. All the time the person dodged my question. That is a simple yes or no question and answers like "The matter has been handled by our security department accordingly." keep them in a grey zone and that matters to me. As a fraud victim I would like to know definitely if that person is still able to harm other people or not. Losing 100 pounds is painful seeing how the company handles fraud issues hurts 100 times more. Their business is about clarity as well as trust and for that reason I wanted my concern sorted out very clearly. I asked them once more via email whether their company has taken action against this person so that he isn't able to betray and harm other people anymore, YES or NO? Zero response! You can't trust that company. A big warning! Don't ever use that company!

I had had transferred money to my skrill account, after what skrill suddenly decided to close my account, and when i contacted customer service they reopened it without my money on my account. After that I contacted customer service multiple times and all they said is that I have to check it with the money sender. Money sender did send the money and I have a proof, together with an email from skrill saying i have recived the money, but customer service continued being rude and unhelpful repeting that I should contact the money sender again. Also when I first tried to verify my account with the code I supose to recive on my phone, somebody from skrill called me saying that they cannot send the code because I downloaded "junk" on my laptop?! Honestly, I think that skrill is a scam, or their software is not good, its not safe and I definetly dont recommend anyone trusting their money with it.

Skrill is cheaters my whole balance was stuck I can't withdraw and now they took my whole amount in the name of standalone fees without any warning or information.
They steal my 71$ without any warning or without any warning or without any reason.
Long-short.
I am a starter in providing services. In lockdown aug 2020 I worked days and nights for this 71$ client. Customer told me that he will only pay through skrill. I signed up and received my 71$. After receiving, when I want to withdraw, they limited my account. I provided all the required information but they aren't accepting my address verification. I tried 3 documents and also sent everything including my bank statement. They are not approving my account. So only I can do is sit and watch my 71$. I can't withdraw.
Suddenly I received an email today that "an administration fee of 71.00 USD has been deducted from your balance".

Means what? This is completely scam. They didn't even warned me about this. I trust this company. I didn't even expect this cheap things to steal the users money. I think this 71$ is nothing for a big company. But it's too much for me.
When I contact them about this issue today. They didn't replied even they removed all the transaction information from my account. Means what is this? Is this is a company or bunch of stealers with the international label. Even a small shop keeper is better to trust. I m now going for every legal action against them and spread all the information in all other platforms as well until I will get my money which is my hard work and my right.

Take you money, and block your account, to unlock, they require verification asking for ID, photo, bank statement, electricity bill etc, how in hell this will help them to verify my identity, when what they are asking for were not submitted when we opened the account, basically they should require some document that are already submitted and filed in their database so they can compare if you resent same documents, do not waste your time sending any document, they just wining time waiting for other to fall in the same trap and make more money.
You have to be very careful look at this case, I money are on my account image one, try to transfer to another skrill holder, they say your balance is zero, if you try to make transfer to a bank account, they redirect you to your bank trying to take more money fro m your account
