    Subject: Request for Account Re-activation - No Response from Support Dear Payoneer Executive Team,I hope you are doing well.I had created my Payoneer account a few months ago and unfortunately, it was closed automatically after I tried logging in from my home device after office use. I have not done any suspicious activity and I use Payoneer services with full compliance to your policies.I sent multiple emails to your support about this issue around 2 months ago but unfortunately, I have not received any response till now. I believe my case might have been overlooked.I am genuinely requesting you to kindly review my case once again and give me a fair chance to resolve any pending verification or misunderstanding.Payoneer is extremely important for my work and payments, and I will ensure complete compliance moving forward.Looking forward to your kind help and positive response.Thank you very much.Regards,****** *** Email ID registered on ****************** : *********************** Your Payoneer Customer ID: ********

    I am writing to file a formal complaint against Payoneer **** regarding the abrupt and unexplained closure of my account and the withholding of my personal funds.On 2/5/2025, I received an email that my Payoneer account had been closed. No prior warning, detailed explanation, or due process was provided. I was informed that I would not be allowed to access my remaining funds and was told to contact Payoneer after a period of 6 months (in my case, after 12/02/2025) to inquire about my balance. This decision has been made without offering any specific reason or pointing out a violation of their terms and ************* a freelancer based in *******, ********, I rely entirely on Payoneer for receiving international payments. The funds currently held in my account represent my personal savings and my only financial support. Blocking access to them without transparent reasoning or a path for appeal is both deeply distressing and financially crippling.I have contacted their customer support multiple times and have only received generic responses that do not address my specific concerns. My repeated requests for clarification or an opportunity to resolve the matter have been ignored.

    Dear Payoneer Support Team,I am writing to formally appeal the recent closure of my Payoneer account, which I believe occurred in error. My account is linked to my **** store, into which I have invested a great deal of time, effort, and resources to build a legitimate and honest business.I understand that account reviews and verification processes are an essential part of maintaining the security and integrity of the Payoneer platform. However, I was surprised to find my account closed shortly after submitting a utility bill (gas payment receipt) for verification purposes. I believe this may have led to a misunderstanding.I want to assure you that I am a law-abiding, responsible seller operating from *******. I am committed to conducting my business with full transparency and integrity. I can provide any necessary documentation to prove my identity and the legitimacy of my activities, including official government-issued IDs, utility bills, bank statements, and other relevant ************ **** store is not just a source of income, but a product of years of honest work and dedication. The unexpected account closure has put my business at risk, and I kindly request a thorough review of my case. I am confident that once all the correct documents are reviewed, it will be clear that my account should be reinstated.Please let me know how I can assist in resolving this issue. I am ready to cooperate fully and provide any information needed to restore my account access as soon as possible.

    A marketplace where I sell my ebooks initiated a payment to me on the 15th of May, 2025 but it was returned due to invalid account number. When I contacted ****************** customer care agent, I was informed that ****************** no longer works with the bank I'm using to receive payments and that I have to apply for a new receiving account. I was infuriated because Payoneer never mentioned this to me earlier. I expected them as a reputable business to inform their customers promptly when things change. Now, I have applied for a new bank account and the customer service agent said it would take two business days for the application to be reviewed and approved. I need Payoneer to hasten the process as I'm expecting a payment to my former receiving account on the 3rd of June, 2025 but need to change it by the end of this month since it's no longer active. If I miss this upcoming payment, it won't be resent until July and I need it to pay my bills next month.

    I am a freelancer from ********** and have been using Payoneer to receive international client payments. On May 22, 2025, my client sent me a payment of ****** for a website maintenance job. However, Payoneer has suddenly disabled my account and refunded the money to the client without any proper reason or prior notice.This was a one-time client, and I submitted all the required documents Payoneer requested for compliance. Still, they have closed my account, frozen my funds, and said I cannot use Payoneer anymore. They also stated that the funds will remain frozen until August 22, 2025, which is unacceptable as this was my legitimate earning.I tried contacting support multiple times, submitted a proper invoice, client information, and explained everything in detail, but I have received no proper resolution or human response. I am now financially impacted and unable to receive the payment that rightfully belongs to **** am requesting BBB to help mediate and get my money released or provide a resolution to this unjust closure and fund freezing.

    Dear *******

    In reference to your e-mail dated May 27, 2025, with respect to Complaint # ********, we hereby respond to you as follows:

    Payoneer *** (Payoneer), a ********************, is a provider of payment processing services. We are a ************* Business (MSB) registered with FinCEN.Payoneer is a licensed money transmitter under the laws of various states in the ************************. We specialize in facilitating cross-border B2B payments.

    The Customer who submitted the complaint ** ***** ******* (the Customer) registered to ****************** services online on May 5, 2025.  The Payoneer services enables customers to receive payments due for commercial transactions between businesses, either from other Payoneer customers or third parties as may be enabled and approved by Payoneer from time to time.  The services are utilized by customers via an online account, accessible by the customers via the ****************** website (******************************).

    Following our review of ** ******* Payoneer account details and activities, which included an extensive investigation and careful consideration, on May 22, 2025 and again on June 2, 2025, Payoneer chose to cease the provision of the Payoneer **************** to them. We periodically review accounts for security purposes and to ensure that customers are still in good standing. 

    According to the Terms and Conditions,  We may terminate or suspend the use of the Payoneer Services at any time. The customer may terminate their use of the ****************** Services with us at any time in accordance with the Closing Your Payoneer Account provisions above. Grounds for termination or suspension, including access to funds, include but are not limited to: 

    1. your violation of these Terms and Conditions
    2. your provision of any false, incomplete, inaccurate, fraudulent or misleading information
    3. you are engaged in fraudulent, money laundering, terrorism financing or illegal activity or we reasonably suspect the same
    4. we reasonably believe that your Payoneer Account has been compromised or for other security reasons
    5. we are required to do so under any applicable law or regulation, or at the direction of any regulatory, law enforcement or other competent authority
    6. continuing to provide the Payoneer Services would be in breach of our obligations under applicable law or regulation.

    In order to receive payments, ** ***** must find a different venue. 

    Concerning the account current balance (s) ****** USD   -the funds can be deflated in 3 months, but no earlier than August 22, 2025. Prior to August 22, 2025, the funds are "blocked" until the risk of receiving a dispute, claim or chargeback is resolved. This ensures the funds are available if a refund is needed.

Our decision about funds freeze may be based on confidential criteria essential to our management of risk. We may be restricted by regulation or a governmental authority from disclosing certain information to you about such decisions. We have no obligation to disclose the details of our risk management or security procedures related to this decision.

    I am filing this complaint due to a serious and unresolved issue with Payoneer concerning my account. I have been attempting to withdraw my funds totaling ***** for over six months.

However, despite my repeated attempts to contact them through emails and support tickets over the past five months, I have not received any meaningful response or solution.Payoneer has failed to communicate clearly or resolve the matter, and my funds remain inaccessible without justification. They have not taken any noticeable steps to address or resolve the issue, and I am left without access to my money or any timeline for resolution.I am requesting immediate assistance from BBB in mediating this situation. I simply want the funds I have earned to be released and for Payoneer to uphold their commitment to allow withdrawals after the review process.Amount Involved: ***** Business Commitment: Withdrawal of funds after standard review Dispute Nature: Funds held without explanation or resolution for over 6 months Business Resolution Attempts: None no meaningful communication or resolution in over 6 months Thank you for your assistance in resolving this matter.
