Looking for advice on a legal issue. Here's what happened.
Square terminated my account. I've been dealing with this for about 15 weeks now and the situation isn't improving.
The amount being held/disputed is approximately $6,023. I have tried contacting their legal department 8 times with no resolution.
Has anyone been through something similar? What worked for you?
Following this thread — Same. 100% same. Please update.
Been there. Here's what I learned.
What worked for me was having everything documented. It took 3-6 months but was worth it lol.
Attorney here. Here's my take on the legal issues.
This is a common situation and the law is fairly clear. Under state consumer protection laws idk, unfair or deceptive.
Have you looked into getting legal advice? Might be more affordable than you think.
Have you tried reaching out to your state's attorney general? They sometimes have free resources or mediation services.
NAL, but from what I've read, you should document everything. Caveat: I'm not your lawyer and this isn't legal advice lol
Following this thread — Bookmarking this. Dealing with almost the exact same thing.
Ngl i went through almost the exact same thing.
In my case, it took about 3-6 months to resolve. The key was having everything documented lol.
I work in this industry and unfortunately this is very common. The good news is that when people actually push back with legal representation, companies usually settle.
Just want to point out — the statute of limitations might be a factor here. In some states it's as short as 1-2 years. Don't sit on this too long.
