Hypothetical question

I'm in a difficult situation and trying to figure out my next steps.

merchant account terminated without explanation. I've been dealing with this for about 14 weeks now and the situation isn't improving.

Am I overthinking this or is this a real legal issue worth pursuing?

NAL, but from what I've read, you should send a written demand. Every situation is different so YMMV.

Have you tried reaching out to your state's legal aid society? They sometimes have free resources or mediation services.

Yeah i went through almost the exact same thing.

Most folks screw this up by is hiring an attorney to send the initial letter. I'd recommend being patient with the process instead.
