Seamless Support and Transaction Experience!

Valentina from Escrow was incredibly professional, responsive, and supportive throughout the entire process. She kept us updated at every step and made everything feel seamless and stress-free. Her communication was clear and timely, and it was a pleasure working with her. Highly recommend!

Escrow is a mess

Escrow is a mess - they approved my personal account then sent emails saying to reapply. They don't know the correct documentation for an incorporated association. They state new photos have been modified - ridiculous. Very uncoordinated and unprofessional. Wasted 2 week on this.

Thank you for your feedback. We understand how frustrating verification delays can be. In some cases, additional documentation is required to meet compliance standards, especially for incorporated associations. We've reached out for more details and will review your case as soon as we receive them. We’ll be happy to help resolve this once we have the necessary information.

Absolutely the worst service on the internet. Do not use the service no matter what you do. I have chatted with their support over email, phone calls, and through the app then every four days they ask for the same information again. It’s a giant waste of your time. The support are empowered to do absolutely nothing to help you. I would highly advise everyone stay as far away from escrow.com. Use a direct payment or a legit escrow service. Do not use escrow.com. It has been two weeks since they released payment and still have received exactly 0 dollars from them.

Terrible experience - waste of time.

Terrible experience — waste of time.
I used escrow.com to sell an antique dresser outside my area and had it shipped. Nearly five days in, they still hadn’t processed the buyer’s payment — even though they told me it was already in the bank. The item arrived before they’d even started the payment process, and they claimed the sale was still “under review.”

This was a private transaction, but they kept asking for extra documentation, photos, and more — all of which had to go through some mysterious review process. Their chat is just a bot, and the one time I got someone on the phone, they gave misleading information. The whole thing felt sketchy and disorganized. I don’t trust them and would never use or recommend this service again.

They claim that I shipped it before they verified but their customer service actually TOLD me to do so and confirmed funds were in the account which was a total lie. They also had to confirm a private sale and for some reason it took over a week? I saved the fees and had no issue so would never use them again

Reply from Escrow.com

Thank you for your feedback. We apologize for the delay on processing the payment. Further checks are mandatory to ensure the security and integrity of the transaction between both parties. It appears that the item was shipped before the funds were secured. As outlined in our process, sellers should wait for confirmation that funds are secured in escrow before shipping.

In these type of transactions, we may also request additional information to comply with verification and compliance requirements. While we understand this can be frustrating, these steps are in place to protect all parties. If you have further questions, we're here to help.

Outstanding Support from Escrow.com and Juan

I had a great experience working with Escrow.com during the sale of a SaaS business through Acquire.com. Special thanks to Juan who went above and beyond to help with a disbursement issue related to my LLC’s bank account.

Despite the platform’s limitations, Juan personally escalated the case, communicated transparently at every step, and helped get a one-time exception approved so the funds could be deposited directly into our business account. He even prioritized the transfer so it could be processed without delay.

In a process that could’ve easily become frustrating, Juan made it smooth, professional, and genuinely supportive. Huge credit to him and the Escrow.com team — highly recommended.

DONT TRUST! They do not release funds!!

It’s been over a week since my deal closed and these people have still not disbursed and refunded my money. When I reached out to customer service to ask for a proof and receipt of the disbursement so that I can call my bank they conveniently told me that their payment system is down for maintenance and can’t provide a receipt. It’s been days. I don’t know if any platform that’s down for maintenance for days! This company is absolutely shady. In the way they disperse funds. I will never do a deal with these guys again!
