I just received an email stating my account has been closed. No reason. Their email VERY clearly states they don't even have to provide me a reason for why they closed my account. Okayy. Understandable… but after having this same account for a few years, with no issues, you would think MY loyalty could have earned atleast a generic reason for the closure to be slapped on me email. My account is used minimally, I've never disputed anything (that I can recall), and like I said - I have had this account for a FEW YEARS. I'm not sure what would justify closing my account, emailing me a notice with no ability to defend or explain what ever reason they have came up with- why do I feel like I've been accused of something fraudulent and like I'm being shamed?! Better off not being an account holder with a company that treats their members this way, anyways.

Don't like the new update. It doesn't alert you of your balance anymore after purchases or uses.

My varo account was restricted due to a red flag on a deposit from the VA. One week now. It was supposed to be unrestricted on 2/25. The tech that was helping me has not called me back. I have rent to pay.

I've been having problems with varo and I really think it bad that I can't speak with a live person on the phone when I'm having trouble and I have to chat texts sometimes I get my words all messed up I'm just so frustrated 😠

Fix the app to the way it was please. Keep the down size on font but the notifications aren't the same and still dark mode..

Update on my review: Since the most recent update the send money to anyone function is no longer working. I have reached out to chat and am having issues viewing the messages I am sent. The message is cut off and I am only able to view the first sentence of every message I receive. I really dislike when companies decide to make UI changes, it usually ends up with bugs in the coding and comes at the expense of the consumer.

No in all ways!even description is not loading to share. App doesn't use zelle,has limits on how much u can transfer and how many times a month!!linking external accounts takes 24hrs or not linking at all. I had to pay 20$!!to transfer funds from venmo to another bank. Advanced cash is nothing. Other platforms were offering 100 at start. This 20. Chat is lugging..I dont have a single positive thought about using it

awful app because it requires you to sign up for direct deposit before you qualify for a cash advance
