Wise problems

Featured Replies

You would think after using it for around 9 years I would have got the hang of it. There just seems to be a lot of niggly (I hope that isn't a banned word) problems.

The gf messages me, she wants 1200 baht to buy some black shirts as she needs to wear black for a month. ok it is only 1200 baht. Set it up on Wise then go to the UK bank to transfer £29.14 to Wise. Do that then sit back an wait. After a while message from gf where is the money? Check, Wise says waiting for money. Check UK bank money has gone. Message gf that is is taking time. More waiting, more messages, gf is getting impatient. Send message to Wise to inquire if they have the money yet, still showing waiting for money. Said they will investigate and get back to me. Mean while I notice there is a note that £29.14 has gone to GBP????? Get fed up waiting to send another £29.14 to Wise and the transaction goes through in 5 seconds.

Did I do something wrong, what is GBP? I suppose Great Britain pound, has this somehow gone to an account. Never used Wise for banking so no idea how it works.

Just seem to be a lot of minor problems with Wise these days. I have messaged Wise but no response yet.

Have you considered that it's maybe not a Wise problem......but a girlfriend problem...........!
