  I am rejecting this response because:
  You are playing games with words. Its disgusting.  ****** payments are seen the moment that they are sent and received.  There is not a delay.  Not even a one second delay.  I showed the representative at your company a copy of ******* website showing that it was paid to you and that the payment was completed.  It then shouldve been recognized that you had my money while the representative claimed that you didnt.  Your representative tried to bump it up a level, but everybody ignored the representative evidently.   You did not listen to your customer nor did you care about what they said.  Initiative shouldve been taken to look at that image proving payment and giving a proper response instead of We didnt receive money from you.  To say that you didnt have the money or that it didnt show up until after the dispute came in is lie. I do not appreciate it and it is insulting.  

  Do some research and reflection yourself and give me an acceptable answer.  You have harmed me, Wasted my time, Lied to me before and lied to me again now.  
  

  Originally, I didnt need an apology. I just wanted my money back. Now I deserve an apology for you dressing this up to make yourself look good perhaps to the BBB. 
  

  Do what is right.

  Dear ******* ****,
  Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We understand how concerning it can be when payment
  issues arise, and we appreciate the opportunity to address this with you.
  Weve carefully reviewed the details of your transaction and can confirm that it was canceled per your
  request. At the time of cancellation, the payment had not yet appeared on our end, which is why we were
  unable to process a refund immediately. A few hours after your initial contact, the payment did reflect in our
  system. However, by that time, a dispute had already been filed through the payment processor, which
  added additional steps and complexity to the resolution process.
  We remain committed to assisting you and we are pleased to confirm that the refund has now been
  completed.
  We understand this experience was not what you expected, and we truly appreciate your patience and
  cooperation throughout. If theres anything more we can assist you with, please dont hesitate to reach out.

  Horrible service! I turned over my vehicle to the buyer on 04/18. ***** confirmed receipt and accepted vehicle same day. The transaction took another week to be closed on 04/25. Today is 05/02, No disbursement has been to me. I called and was notified the buyers billing address was wrong. Why does that matter? We have both fulfilled our end of the deal. Where is my money? They keep giving you excuses about documents they and they need one more day to transfer the money. They have over complicated a simple process and are doing something sketchy to keep your money.

  Dear ***** ******,

  Thank you for reaching out and sharing your concerns. We understand how frustrating delays can be, especially after all steps in the transaction have been completed.

  In this case, the disbursement did not proceed immediately due to a necessary clarification related to the transaction details. While the delay was not intentional, some reviews can occasionally take additional time to complete before a disbursement can move forward.

  Were pleased to confirm that the matter has now been resolved, and your disbursement is ready for processing.

  We truly appreciate your patience and understanding. If theres anything further we can assist you with, please dont hesitate to reach out.

  Escrow.com was used to draft a contract and transaction for exchanging payment and title of a motor vehicle. Buyer ********* ****-****** told Seller Durakhshan ***** about doing the transaction on escrow.com in lieu of eBay.Buyer ********* ****-****** drafted the contract and transaction on escrow.com for the sale.However, according to escrow.com, she picked the incorrect category. The seller allowed the buyers to pick up the car based on the buyer's funds being held in escrow by escrow.com. Escrow.com voided the contract and transaction, while offering no empathy, remorse, or support for the buyer.The buyers was without the car in possession and no money due to Escrow.com engaging in wrongful business practice harming the consumer.Escrow.com Vice-President, ********* ******* ************************************** was attached on email correspondence. At no point did he correspond or stepped in to resolve the issue. Would you want to use ************************** to sell your car, where trust is required and due to one clerical error, which is not your fault, they completely leaver the consumer on their own accord. This is not the way to do business.

  I opened a transaction to purchase a domain name on February 2, 2025. I wired the funds on February 3rd from my personal account. The funds were deducted from my account and I was charged a wire fee from my bank. It will be 5 days tomorrow that Escrow.com says they cannot research or validate the funds were sent. Meanwhile I am out over $3,000 in my checking account and ******************** has the never to tell me they can only research my wire if I provide them a wire payment receipt number. Well Escrow.com, my bank **************** only provides confirmation numbers and the funds were sent to ********, a US bank so the funds are there and I was charged the fee. I have called multiple times to try to address and the most recent conversation the customer service representative hung up on me. This is absolutely a joke. I would not ever do business with this company or service again. Not only have I wasted multiple hours of my time to complete, no one at this company is willing to help me. It's been 4 days and a wire gets processed the SAME DAY! Where are my funds and why haven't you secured them and processed my transaction. I have now had to call in and request that they change it to Debit to pay but now I don't want to even do that.

  Dear **** *****,
  Thank you for reaching out and sharing your concerns. We understand how frustrating it can be to experience delays, especially when funds have already been deducted from your account.

  To help ensure that your transaction is processed smoothly, we sometimes require additional payment confi rmation from your bank. Were happy to review any details you can provide so we can escalate this further if needed.
  After reviewing your case, were pleased to confi rm that the funds have already been successfully secured, and we are moving forward with your transaction. Our team is actively monitoring your transaction, and if you need any further assistance, were here to help.
  We appreciate your patience, and were here to ensure everything is completed smoothly for you.

  I used Escrow.com to conduct a transaction in which I sold a product to a buyer. The buyer provided payment through Escrow.com, and I shipped the item to the buyer, valued at about $3,000. Escrow.com then cancelled the transaction, stating that I shipped the product before they authorized me to. I shipped the product in the time frame agreed upon between myself and the buyer. The buyer and I both reached out to Escrow.com and expressed our desire to complete the transaction. Despite escrow.com holding the buyers money, and despite the fact that I have relinquished the product to the buyer, and despite our desires to move forward, Escrow.com cancelled the transaction. This puts me, the seller, in a particularly difficult situation, as I have not been paid AND I no longer have my product. I expressed this to Escrow.com and they told me to settle this outside of Escrow.com. The customer service has been abhorrent and this feels like very unreasonable business practices.

  

  Business Response

  Date: 02/12/2025

  Dear ******** *****,
  Thank you for reaching out regarding your experience. We understand how important it is for transactions to be processed smoothly and securely. However, Escrow.com operates strictly within regulatory guidelines, and transactions must adhere to our platforms terms of service to ensure compliance and security for all parties involved.
  In this case, the transaction was canceled because it did not meet the necessary requirements for an escrow transaction. Escrow.com is not a payment platform; rather, we facilitate secure escrow services, where funds are held and only disbursed when all conditions are met. Unfortunately, shipping an item before the transaction was authorized does not align with our escrow process.
  Since the transaction was voided, any resolution regarding the shipped item would need to be handled directly between the buyer and seller. While we regret any inconvenience this may have caused, our policies are in place to maintain security and compliance.
  Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.

  Sold car on **** using escrow.com as a service for the transaction and the title transfer. Car was shipped to the buyer and he accepted the transaction authorizing escrow.com to release the funds on 11/25/2024. Received emails confirming the payment from escrow.com even apologizing for the delay. As of 12/12/24 I still have not been paid. I have contacted the company twice, the latest being on 12/11/24 and was told that they were not able to pay me plus could not tell me why.

  Do NOT use escrow.com!!! I used escrow.com to facilitate the purchase of a sprinter van in another state. I was using escrow.com to assist with wiring money to the seller and the vehicle title transfer only. Per their posted policy, it would take 1 to 2 business days for the title to be overnighted to me (the buyer) and for the funds to be wired to the seller. Two business days after the completion of all online requirements per escrow.com, I received an additional email asking for confirmation of delivery which I immediately provided without receiving a response. When I had not received the title or appropriate communication, I called. That is when I learned that escrow.com intends to hold the title and payment for an undefined amount of time "for further investigation and review" which they admit "is not stated or published anywhere in their policies". Additionally, during this phone call, escrow.com insisted they had never received the vehicle title and I ultimately had to prove (via their prior written confirmation) that escrow.com had previously received the title. As of now, I still do NOT have the vehicle title (per the refusal of escrow.com), payment has not been released to the seller by escrow.com, and escrow.com refuses to confirm when the title and funds will be released from this secret, undisclosed review.

  Dear ***** ***** *******,
  Thank you for your feedback and for sharing your details so we may take action on this promptly.

  We assure you that we do not intend to delay any part of the transaction. However, our goal is to ensure
  that all transactions are secure and completed correctly, which sometimes may involve additional reviews.
  We understand that this caused an unexpected wait, and were working to refine our processes to make
  them more efficient going forward.
  After reviewing your case, were pleased to confirm that the vehicle title and payment have now been
  successfully processed and released. We appreciate your patience as we worked to ensure everything was
  in order.
