Venmo is evil. I like to separate my professional life from my private life, but Venmo insists I share my personal information, so i no longer accept Venmo for payment. It’s cash or CashApp. I prefer cash. You should, too.
I’m sorry if this inconveniences anyone, but now you know, so you can plan. But Venmo sucks.
No Venmo
Won’t use this app,and am very sceptic about cashapp after using it successfully before.Here is why.
A girl who does a fair amount of touring asked me to purchase some vids and pics from her .It’s money that help with expenses so why not help a girl out.
The problem is that cash app won’t accept my new credit card – telling me that “this credit card charges addition fees”.Then they ask for three verification and I supplied two including a back and front photo of my DL .The third they want me to link a bank account. There is no way am putting my bank info on some app.
So I could not get pass the third verification. Got an email a few days ago saying I am approved but am done with it.Sticking to cash and the ‘good ole PayPal’.
Cash is king. I can’t take PayPal because I’ve been burned. A regular customer that I’d dated many times…and usually paid in cash…paid by PayPal.
And then he reversed the transaction. There is nothing I can do because PayPal requires proof of delivery of goods, so you know that’s not possible.
So it’s cash or CashApp. I prefer cash anyway.
Sorry to hear that a regular customer does that to you.See.. ,it’s people like those I don’t like ,makes you probably ask, who can be trusted.While I have never steal from anyone and have no intention of doing so , “they have muddied the waters” so to speak,and we all find ourselves in the same boat.
But am fine with you taking the zero tolerance approach.As a small business person myself ,that’s the safest way to go in this world today.
