My account was blocked and no explanation was given. When trying to log int, the message "please contact us" appears. I have sent Payoneer 3 messages, and they all said they would get back to me in 2 business days. That didn't happened.

Part of my salary is received via Payoneer, and it's outrageous that a company can do this, give no reason for it, and then don't reply to someone that uses their service.

Withdrawal Delays
May 31, 2022

I have used Payoneer for almost a year now. And since day 1 there is never a time that I did not experience any delays in my withdrawals. This platform gives me headache all the time. Transactions showing completed on their end but it's not showing in my bank account. They always tell me that the money is already with my bank and that it's up to them to deposit it in my account. I say they are liers! I went to my bank and was able to speak to a manager and they cannot see any money transferred by Payoneer cause if there is one they will credit it to my account right away. What happened Payoneer are you holding on to the interest rates of my money since it will be converted to peso in my end? I will ask my client to switch to a different money transfer provider. These guys are a pain in the $#*!! It's been several days now and still no whereabouts as to where my money is. I withdraw that money for medical emergency, now my patient is dying and Payoneer is the one I will blame for the rest of my life.

Do not use them
April 29, 2022

I paid a 3rd party. After 1 week of not receiving the service, i did a online chat to start a claim to get my money back. I had not heard anything from Payoneer, so i filed a claim with my CC bank. Payoneer responded to the claim stating that the charge was valid, I spoke with a representative at Payoneer, they said the claim i started with them was investigated, and they found that I had not received the service and reversed the charge from the 3rd party. But since I started a claim with the CC bank that they had to do the reversal on their side. I spoke with CC bank, and they stated Payoneer had denied the claim and stated the charge was valid. Each time I spoke with customer service from Payoneer I was given a different story until finally they said they could no longer help me. They kept the $999 that was reversed from the 3rd party and will not reverse the charge back to me. I feel scamed

I have had a worse experience with Payoneer. They can block you anytime with no prior notice or no warning. Also, they will not tell you, why you are going to block. So bad... I do not recommend others
All, they will be clashed soon, because of cryptocurrencies.

I got my last payment on Feb. 2nd. Today is Feb. 16th. And I can do nothing with these funds... Nothing at all! Customer support sends me auto-replies, and they are obsolete since they have changed their application. I keep messaging them sending screenshots and explaining the situation, but get no constructive answers. I can't update my bank accounts, for some reason I have reached the maximum, and the single account for withdrawal I have doesn't show up anywhere except my bank accounts, where all I can do is delete it. They said it's because my previous country of residence was Russia so that is why I can do nothing... It makes no sense. As well as you charging me $30 for maintenance when I get no help and answers.

I am in South Africa and I was selling a fridge for R3000. A Payoneer client Graham Lewis asked to buy the fridge and that was no problem. I was requested to pay R3250 for a pick up agent before Graham Lewis could pay the money I to my account. So I did as instructed and was promised that all the money would be sent to my account by 10am on 30/12/2021. To my shock, o received an email asking me to make an additional payment of R2000 in order to get my money. This is when I realized that they are scammers and they will keep asking me to send more money until I have no money to live. The supposed client Graham Lewis stopped replying to my emails and the Payoneer team has refused to help me with a simple refund. They took advantage of me because I'm a young black girl and left me stranded with no help. If there is anyone wanting to involve themselves with Payoneer I'd advise you to stay away and if anyone sees this and can help me I'd greatly and any help that I can get

I'm very grateful to have Payoneer as an option to receive my funds. As getting a US bank account is very difficult for persons who are not residents of the USA. It makes doing online business very easy and efficient. However, their customer service is sometimes lacking. This is the only issue I have with them. Otherwise they would get 5/5 stars.
