Zero stars. The GoFundme Giving Guarantee is an absolute joke. Fundraiser event didn’t go ahead. Person cashed the donations. Gofundme thinks that’s fine 😡

Zero stars. The GoFundme Giving Guarantee is an absolute joke. Fundraiser event didn’t go ahead. Person cashed the donations. Gofundme thinks that’s fine 😡
In order to set up a GoFundMe to help a…
In order to set up a GoFundMe to help a community in need, I was forced to give a third company based in The Netherlands full access to my bank account including my balance. This company is called Adyen which has a 1.4 TrustPilot rating and is not contactable! I did not want to do this but as I had to put the needs of others who are more in need before my own, I was effectively forced to do it. Now I have to speak to my bank on the phone - which is next to impossible - to stop the access.

Go fund me cancel an official account of 25 years old German charity organization becsuse they have an account for helping the children with cancer in Iraq .. and the account has 15 Euros .. without a reason .. but when you do it for Ukraine .. you can do what ever you want … Go fund me is s political racist group

The Gofundme platform is a mess
The Gofundme platform is a scam. For 1 month, I sending to Gofundme emails almost daily to the customer department, to clarify the situation of my account, and I get an evasive answer after a week, with various other unjustified requests. I do not recommend this platform, they are profitable scammers.
Rude and unhelpful
I didn't agree with their updated T&Cs so wanted to delete the account. The help agent was unable to answer my question and abruptly closed the chat.
Now trying to get confirmation that my data has been deleted, a simple question that they could or would not answer.
We set up a page for a local cause and…
We set up a page for a local cause and found they charge 15% commission despite advertising 2.9%. Avoid like the plague please.
Terrible platform
Terrible platform. I had two campaigns running concurrently and when I requested withdrawals for just one, they sent ALL the funds for both. No reference to the name of the campaign, instead a series of digits. Zero common sense, how difficult would it be to give a named reference? I forwarded all the funds to the first charity, without realising the money was for both. But I'd never requested for the second, so why would I even question it? I am ending up having to pay for the shortfall, and if people didn't know me, they would think this could be a misappropriation of funds raised, which is a very serious issue. Would never use again.
If only I could give this fraud company…
If only I could give this fraud company no stars. Set up a go fund page for my village community after we had an devastating environmental disaster, quickly closed it down when I realised what a shower it was. Avoid. Seriously don’t give this company your time nor your money.
Gofundme has no ethics
Deceptive practices
Deceptive practices, never again. Trust is not owed, never forgets.
Absolutely disgusting stealing money…
Absolutely disgusting stealing money that good people have donated to the truckers! You should be ashamed of yourselves!!!!!!
Funders of harmful global dictator corporations
Corrupt organization who support destructive & harmful global corporations. They effectively stole my donation to the truckers, stating to give it to a source of THEIR choice!. Have nothing to do with this rotten bent corrupt company, I've applied for a charge back, not having any of it, or any further dealings with these thieves. Stay well clear of this crooked outfit.
Utterly disgusted.
Their actions on my donation to support people's human rights are disgusting. I do not use that word lightly. Go fund me now clearly supports and is part of a totalitarian regime that must be fought at all costs.
Corrupt company
Corrupt company, funds confiscated at their discretion. Do not trust!
Its a scam outfit who proves democracy…
Its a scam outfit who proves democracy is clearly an illusion by blocking legitimate fundraisers ONLY AFTER they have already stashed the cash in gofundme accounts. 2 years ago they also froze the account of a fundraiser for a little girl who needed a bath. That campaign was a few pounds short and its still ongoing apparently even though the campaign ended long ago. They are STILL taking peoples money under false pretences. Its as big a scam as there is.
This company rips people off
This company rips people off! and is a dictatorship, they rip people off and give monies to who they think should have it, instead of who its intended for! what a rip off company....
