Popular Post Smithson Posted January 28, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted January 28, 2022 Does anyone here use 2Checkout? I am using them for my Shopify store, there customer service has always been bad, but now they restricted my account for more than a month and are taking days to respond to my emails. They are holding a lot of my money and are making it impossible to get it released. There is no complaint mechanism and they are not reading my emails fully, instead just giving a quick response. I was not even sent an email to say it would be restricted and when I log in there is nothing on the site to tell me why it's restricted. They won't release it without a bank statement that includes the bank address and SWIFT code (I don't think such a statement is available). As PayPal is leaving Thailand, it seems I will be left with only 2Checkout. Does anyone have alternatives? These payment providers take so much every month, but when there is a problem there service is terrible. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OneMoreFarang Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 Did you try to call them or chat with them or user LINE? At least in my experience short sentences in chat are easier to understand and to answer. It's not optimal, but it does the job. Good luck! I use Lazada and online bank transfers. It works fast and hassle free. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They should include such information. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can get a statement anytime, but they are asking for one with everything written in English and SWIFT codes. The bank doesn't do this and when I inform 2Checkout they are just ignoring it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who do you bank with? All banks have their SWIFT info online. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
userabcd Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 (edited) As usual it is almost impossible to contact these companies by phone and they suddenly can act unilaterally disrupting peoples lives. Dont think you will get a bank statement showing all the info that they suddenly now need, even bank statements from the uk dont contain the banks address. Perhaps you could visit your bank and try and ask them to print a statement with your details, the bank address details and the swift code info and the deposit withdrawal transaction for say 1 year on that statement. Have you tried leaving a review on trustpilot, it seems they are monitoring their reviews there and may reach out somehow if the review gets their attention?

Unify Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 Stripe Atlas has a $500 setup fee, but then allows you to operate as a US business. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dont think you will get a bank statement showing all the info that they suddenly now need, even bank statements from the uk dont contain the banks address. I changed my bank details, but didn't change the account number, so the payment bounced back. I updated the info, but they are claiming nothings changed and now want a statement. They don't seem to read what I write at all. They take a least a day to respond with a short sentence telling me it's prioritized, will be done asap, but it's been a month and now the amount is very large. Quote Perhaps you could visit your bank and try and ask them to print a statement with your details, the bank address details and the swift code info and the deposit withdrawal transaction for say 1 year on that statement. Most likely they will say no, if they can it will take a long time and most likely not be adequate. Quote Have you tried leaving a review on trustpilot, it seems they are monitoring their reviews there and may reach out somehow if the review gets their attention? No, but I left a review somewhere else and they have contacted me. This shows they are purely concerned about reputation and don't want complaints in the public domain, but truth is the don't care about the customers at all. I give my customers much better service for much smaller amounts. They make $100s of me every month. Quote Stripe Atlas has a $500 setup fee, but then allows you to operate as a US business. Thanks, but I have a Thai company selling on Shopify and can't find a suitable provider. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SebBkk Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 I’m also trying to find a payment processor for my Shopify. No more Paypal for now in Thailand, tried 2checkout but they refused without any explanation. I’m now in process with Paymentwall, let see if it will work. Fasterpay is an other option that i’m looking in the same time. I also agree that getting a bankstatement with swift and adress seems impossible… 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThaiSanookGuy Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 Luckily those skumbags suddenly didn't want to get money for what I was selling years ago.

Paysolutions is ok, no problem even with chargebacks, only high fees. And you can open a paypal account with an address registered abroad, nobody cares that your $hitify shop is in Thailand.

ThaiSanookGuy Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 And why not use Stripe also ? They are so easy to setup with a western address... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fdsa Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 Does Shopify lock you with a limited merchants list or you could use any 3rd party merchant? If the latter - try omise.co Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They respond, but all they say is it's a priority, will be done asap, but that's all I get. Problem is most likely I've agreed to appalling service when I signed up. Plus I don't have a lawyer.
