    I am filing this complaint against Found ***************************** They are not a bank or a credit union but they are backed by *************. I have had this type of situation occur with this company numerous times and this is the final straw. I have had a transaction that was charged against my account for $ 6.00. I have supplied the company with my information numerous times at leas 3 times and they seem to loose the information or throw it away. I am fed up with the lack of follow through on promised calls and pending resolutions. I have attempted to resolve the issue with no resolution that is acceptable. I want my money to be refunded to me. Period!

    I was in a business meeting conducting business and i kept receiving notifications on my phone saying i just changed my password. When i havent. This was 3/26/25 around 2:45pm. I was hacked starting with my found debit account and then the hackers went to my yahoo bc that email was connected with my found and they changed all my info and added theirs. It happened so fast, as i was trying to lock my card i got logged out of the app and was no longer able to log back in. I had $280.86. I sat on hold having an anxiety attack for a hour for help from a customer care representative and he gave no concern about my situation. He told me this hacking stuff happens a lot. I cried. Im a mother of 3 and i trusted this company with my business money and now its gone and im being questioned as if i have done when they all know this happens within there company. I was just able to get back into the account yesterday 3/27/25 because a woman named ***** sent me an email. She never called me and eventually she stopped responding back to me. Now Im lost and confused bc normally banks call to talk about fraud and stuff but i have to explain myself through email. I told them both i received calls from Paris numbers France numbers and whats app numbers then texts from ***** saying i changed my password when i didnt. I took a sceeenshot of the number they used and googled it and nothing came up. Its not a real number. I sent them all the information and heard nothing back. They even tried to send $100 my cash app but bc the card was already locked it didnt work. The card they sent the money too ending in ********************************* them numbers. I do not own that account. I have made numerous deposits into this account and i have been robbed of my money

    I was charged multiple times ,I did not authorize any purchases. I even verified that with the company that there were no purchases . They told me they were communicating with found and would get it taken care of. Found is lying to me telling me that they have verified proof of order and shipping ,and it's impossible as none were made. Are lying and helping for me to be stolen from.

    Someone from the Found company phone number called me to tell me that they detected fraudulent activity on my account after texting me from a different number about it stating that they would give me follow up calls from a customer service **** and told me that my account was locked and needed to be reset and to provide my password to verify my identity. There was an internal contractor transfer, which I do not even use or know how to use, out of my account for $80 and the banking app did not give me the option to dispute that type of transaction, of course. I clled and emailed the bank and I didn't get an email reply about this for about a day, at which point they emailed me that they locked my account and to enter in a new password. I haven't done this yet, just because I already did this on my own when it was an immediate issue.Customer Service Risk told me that this is my fault because I fell victim to phishing, even though I emphasized that someone from their company phone number called me about this.

    **************************, a partner of *************, has provided me with a business bank account for about 2 years now without any problems. Out of the blue, I received a message from the *************** stating that they are closing my account and that I need to transfer any remaining funds out of my account. I asked why they were closing my account and they refused to give me any information on why it was closed nor would they tell me who I could contact in order to find out. I would like to know why my account was closed.

    Complaint: 23100653

    I am rejecting this response because:

    I am deeply disappointment regarding the recent closure of my account, which I have maintained in good standing for almost two years. This decision, made without any prior warning or explanation, has left me bewildered and frustrated. As a loyal customer, I expected a certain level of communication and transparency from your institution, yet I received neither.

    The lack of clarity surrounding this abrupt action has eroded my trust in your bank. I am left with numerous unanswered questions about the reasons behind this closure and what led to such a sudden decision. It feels as though my loyalty and good standing have been disregarded, and I find it difficult to reconcile this experience with the service I believed I would receive.

    I urge you to reconsider your approach to customer relations and communication. A simple explanation would go a long way in restoring my faith in your institution.

When I questioned this, I was ignored.Unjust Account ************** Support:Shortly after disputing the charges, Found closed my account without warning, forcing me to transfer my remaining funds ************** investigation into the fraudulent *************** explanation for how my card was added without my ********** customer supportonly abrupt dismissal.After raising concerns, Founds co-founder and CIO, ****** ****, viewed my LinkedInyet no one contacted me.Desired Resolution:A full refund of fraudulent transactions.A formal explanation of how this security failure occurred.Accountability for Founds negligence and unfair practices.Found.coms failure to protect customer funds and support small business owners is unacceptable.

    I signed up for the $125 new account promotion reward and Found insisted I signed up for another incentive that I didnt even know of and will not apply the correct promo that I signed up to my account. I took screenshots when I clicked on the offer page at 3:30pm on 2/9 and account was created and approved at 3:48pm. And I have since deposited $5000 to my account to satisfy the requirement of the new account promo. ********************** is refusing to honor the offer I signed up for and made up lies that I signed up for something else. If they did not want to pay they should not have advertised the promotion. I wasted my time opening the account and have transferred money into my account for nothing. I feel scammed and I will not recommend anyone to bank with Found and will continue to warn others of their shady tactics.

    Date: 03/20/2025

    Thank you for your patience while we reviewed your concerns and previous conversations with our team. Unfortunately, we are not able to provide specific information about your account or its eligibility for promotional offers in this forum.
    With that said, we can share that in order to receive a promotional bonus for completing the terms of an incentive, new customers must sign up through the promotion's landing page and meet all eligibility requirements. If a user were to sign up through the normal process, they would be automatically enrolled in the platform deposit incentive alluded to in your comment.

    We understand that this is not the resolution you had hoped for, but we are required to adhere to strict guidelines around promotions and incentives. Regrettably, we are not able to extend the benefits of incentives to all accounts if all eligibility requirements are not met. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused

    I am filing this complaint against Found due to their unprofessionalism, lack of communication, and unjustified freezing of my business account, which has caused me significant financial and operational distress.Nearly two weeks ago, Found froze my account without warning, citing suspicious activity. I have been a customer for only a month and a half, and instead of reaching out to verify any concerns beforehand, they simply locked my access to my own funds. This has crippled my business operations, as I have been unable to access money critical for running my business, paying expenses, and fulfilling obligations.From the moment they froze my account, I have been stuck in an endless cycle of unanswered emails, delayed responses, and lack of urgency from their support team. They claim to have reached out in separate emails, which is false because I have checked my inbox repeatedly, and the only responses I have received are automated messages or vague replies that fail to address the issue. They take days to respond, leaving me in the dark with no clear timeline on when this situation will be resolved.Their customer service is non-existent, there is no phone number to call (Only if you pay a monthly fee) no way to escalate the issue, and no real human engagement that could bring a swift resolution. I have repeatedly emphasized the urgency of the situation, yet they continue to show complete disregard for the impact this is having on my business.What kind of financial institution operates this way freezing a businesss money with no due process, no real support, and no resolution in sight? This experience has been a nightmare, and I strongly urge others to think twice before trusting this so-called bank with their finances.I demand immediate action to unfreeze my funds, a clear explanation of their unjustified actions, and accountability for the severe inconvenience and financial harm they have caused me.
