Looking for advice on a legal issue in Michigan. Here's what happened.
Stripe holding $15K for 90 days. I've been dealing with this for about 3 months now and the situation isn't improving.
The amount being held/disputed is approximately $36,994. I have tried contacting customer support 6 times with no resolution.
What's the typical outcome in situations like this?
NAL, but from what I've read, you should file a complaint. That said, definitely get a lawyer to look at the specifics.

I went through almost the exact same thing.
