I used to rely on Remitly for competitive exchange rates, but their recent pricing practices are unacceptable. The app advertises an exchange rate yielding 374.61 on the main screen, but as soon as you enter the actual transfer amount, the final payout drops to 371.96. Remitly keeps sending promotional reminders boasting about great rates, but the rate displayed upfront directly contradicts what you receive at checkout. This practice feels misleading, and I intend to report this behaviour.

Said it would take about an hour to verify payment and double-check security, but waited hours and then waited overnight until the day after and still not processed... Cancelled it and tried again but after doing the same thing for over an hour, I canceled the payment and deleted the app!... Totally waste of time for me.

Hi David, we understand how deeply frustrating it is to deal with unexpected security holds and overnight verification delays when trying to send money promptly. These reviews help protect your funds, but we know the wait is disappointing. Please contact our team at https://www.remitly.com/in/en/help so we can review your case.

Using Google Pay to send money didn't work. The Customer service advised me to cancel the transaction and make a new one using my card directly rather than Google Pay. However by doing this I wouldn't have received the introductory rate. They weren't able to do anything about this, or to change the payment method on my original transaction. They also weren't able to open a ticket to get someone to look into why Google Pay wasn't working with their platform.
