A Reliable and Efficient Money Transfer Service
08/05/2024

Dr. Clifford Broderick
I've been using Remitly for less than a year now to send money to my family abroad, and I am extremely satisfied with their service. Remitly offers fast transfers with an express service that ensures funds reach the recipient within minutes, which is perfect for urgent situations. They provide competitive exchange rates that maximize the amount my family receives, making it an excellent value compared to other services. The app and website are user-friendly, and the entire process is straightforward with clear instructions. Remitly is transparent about its fees, so I always know exactly how much it will cost to send money, which helps with budgeting. On the rare occasions when I’ve needed assistance, their customer support has been responsive and helpful, offering support in multiple languages. With its wide reach, Remitly supports transfers to a variety of countries and currencies, making it a versatile choice for anyone with international connections. I also appreciate the robust security measures they have in place to protect user data. Overall, Remitly has made sending money abroad simple, fast, and secure, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a reliable money transfer service.

Terrible Customer Support & Unclear Instructions

I had two issues with Remitly:1. My transaction was not being received by my recipient. So I contacted customer support. They said they’d contact the “concern team” and then told me they’d get back in 2-3 business days. The transaction was already late at this point so I asked if there was a phone number or email for the concern team and they said no. What kind of department doesn’t have an email or phone number?? They just kept saying that there was nothing they could do but that the concern team was contacted. And this was my first time using Remitly and $3000 was already taken out of my bank account. So you can see why I’d be concerned and why I wanted to get the contact info to check in the status of my transaction.2. Unclear instructions for referral link. I clicked on the referral link I received and the link led me to the website where it said “download the app”. So I did so and made my first transaction but didn’t see the $20 reward. I thought it’d come through after the transaction goes through. But it didn’t so I called customer service. And they said I was supposed to click on the link again before making the transaction, which was not what the referral link said. The referral link said to register with this link to get the rewards. So I ended up having to call customer service and they just kept saying we see that you didn’t use any link. The instructions should have been clearer.

They called and asked me for more information to verify my account and promised to give me a call back if they need more info. And then suspended my account without giving me the call as they promised.Very unprofessional. I called the main line and there is nothing they can do to reactive my suspended account even tho I am willing to provide them more information but it's always "we can't do anything".They do not really know what's the exact issue but its because of suspicious activity. Can they be more professional? If it is because of suspicious activity, they should have call me as what they promised and tell me about it, so I can answer to all of the questions they have. But they did not call me and just decided to suspend the account and cancel the transaction. What if my transaction is critical and someone's life is on the line because of it? What if my transaction is for something in the hospital and they really do need that amount? Remitly just decided to suspend and cancel the transaction without getting anything? What is the point of having customer service when they can't help you with anything? Instead of helping or fixing the issue, they just told me that I cannot use remitly anymore. And that, my friend, that's how you lose clients. This is my first time using this app too. This is such a let down. Going to delete this app and tell me friends to do so as well. Unbelievable customer service.
