Hypothetical question

Looking for advice on this situation. Payment Processor Holding 30% Reserve on All Transactions Is this as bad as I think?

Illustrative response

File a complaint with the CFPB immediately. Payment processors and banks respond much faster to regulatory complaints than to customer service tickets. Example: a $20K hold can be released within a week after a CFPB complaint.
