Thank You Mobu

Mobu Miah was incredibly helpful. He communicated clearly and he was very efficient. He also provided really helpful explanations and had me set up within a day. I would highly recommend Mobu.

Great company and friendly staff

I have been talking with Charlie Sweeney regarding setting up my business to take mobile payments. Right from the initial chat, he has been so professional and patient with me. I am not that tech savvy, but Charlie guided me through the set-up of the card reader and we made a practice payment so I was confident that the system would work when I first used it. Would not hesitate to recommend Global Payments to anyone. Thanks

From the start of enquiring online to chatting to one lady, to the set up by Charlie (Sweeney) was amazing. Our business was set up with a card reader in no time at all. It was so quick that I panicked it was a scam at first. I would highly recommend Global payments and Charlie. Thank you so much. Here's to making our business payment's easier 🙂

Catastrophic Communication and Unlawful…

Catastrophic Communication and Unlawful Withholding of Company Funds!Our company uses a POS terminal from Global Payments. On 14.10.2025 , a transaction of EUR 2,500 was processed through the terminal, which Global Payments subsequently blocked as a preventative FRAUD reserve.Despite the fact that we duly provided ALL requested documentation to prove the legitimacy of the transaction, and were officially informed in writing that the "CASE is closed" (Case Number: FRD-22656), the company ignore us to return the blocked amount of EUR 2,500.For several weeks, we have unsuccessfully contacted Risk Management, Fraud, and Customer Support. My emails are unanswered, phone urgencies lead nowhere, and a helpdesk request has been ignored.I demand a public explanation from Global Payments and the immediate return of the EUR 2,500 that you are unlawfully retaining. Such conduct (closing the case without releasing funds and zero communication) is unacceptable for a business partner.
