For anyone in this situation: don't rely on a single payment processor. Always have a backup processor ready to go. Diversification isn't just for investments.

Keep in mind that payment processor disputes are governed by the contract you signed, not consumer protection law (since you're a merchant). Read your merchant agreement carefully for the dispute resolution process.

File a complaint with the CFPB immediately. Payment processors and banks respond much faster to regulatory complaints than to customer service tickets. I've seen $20K holds released within a week after a CFPB complaint.
