Quick background on my situation — any input appreciated.

Square terminated my account. I've been dealing with this for about 7 months now and the situation isn't improving.

The amount being held/disputed is approximately $24,047. I have tried contacting customer support 8 times with no resolution.

Has anyone been through something similar? What worked for you?

Licensed attorney — a few thoughts. Here's my take on the legal issues.

The key question is whether the applicable statute of limitations has run. Depending on your jurisdiction, you typically have Regulation E years for this type of claim.

One important thing — there are strict deadlines for filing these claims. Don't wait too long.

Not a lawyer, but I have direct experience with this.

In my case, it took about 3-6 months to resolve. The key was having everything documented.

Have you tried reaching out to your state's consumer protection office? They sometimes have free resources or mediation services.

This happened to me too. Have you tried filing a complaint with the relevant agency? In my case they investigated and it got resolved without needing a lawyer.
