They refunded all donations, no customer service
They refunded all donations and I cannot get any questions answered or help through customer service. Such a waste of time and effort for many people. Around 40 donors and almost $1700 gone and I can’t find out why. I will never recommend! I am devastated that in hard times this has happened.
Honest, open, and great customer service. Was there in my time of need.

I received help when I needed it, with what I considered a difficult task. My problem was solved when Daniela walked me through the process.

What a good idea turned into a scam
What a good idea turned into a scam. I tried to donate $1000 for a friend in need. I opened Gofundme site and filled the required information. At the last page before submitting, a new additional charge of $175 appeared in a smaller font and grey color, not black. To me it looks like they try to hide the additional charge. This additional charge is in addition to the 2.9% that they take from the $1000. To sum it up, a $1000 donation would have cost me $1175 and my friend would have received $1000 - 2.9%.
I killed the GoFundMe donation and sent a check instead 👍👏
I called in for help. I’m utterly useless on a computer. I know how to type but that’s about it. I would much prefer speaking to a live person. But you don’t even offer that. So to me that’s a bit of a bummer. However, the person I got was able to give me some help. She sent me a printout of what I had to do. Which is all well and good if I had two computers so I could read one while following the directions on the other! Please, for us older folk…could you please provide a live response!

Rip off fees charged
Go fund me rips you off for high fees when you donate. What BS. They take advantage and these greedy a-holes make huge profits off of this scam.
I made a $200 donation and requested a refund for the tip of $35. My request was answered immediately notifying me that I would receive the $35 refund to my credit card.. The response was very prompt and appreciated..
The guy stuck with me and luckily I was able to get the beneficiary to do her part and he never left us.

At first glance I found the guide confusing. However, the Gofundme service was extremely helpful and I was able to follow through. I'm grateful to them.
Gabriella was amazing beyond words. She stuck with me until my issue was resolved. I somehow got disconnected and could not thank her property. She's a shining star and positive role model for all customer service agents. 5 stars!

GoFundMe is holding a small campaign's funds hostage in an endless verification loop (Ticket #19219555). Despite providing all requested IDs, platform records, and financial details, different agents contact me daily demanding more sensitive personal data.As a resident in the UK, I find these erratic internal data protection practices highly unprofessional and a security risk. My donors supported this cause in good faith, and I refuse to let GoFundMe keep their money stuck.I have given their compliance team a 24-hour ultimatum: release the funds to my verified UK bank account or refund every penny to the donors immediately. If this is not resolved today, I will officially escalate the case to the UK Financial Ombudsman Service (FOS) and the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO). Completely disappointed.

Credit card fraud not resolved by GoFundMe
Was trying to find a resolution to being debited over £150 on my credit card for a donation I never made. Subsequently I was told no payment was taken, however the fraud department of my credit card informed me otherwise. They have now refunded the full amount via GoFundMe and stated that’s where the fraud occurred.
Be careful people when leaving card details with GFMe.

they are wonderful they are sending money to the account because i didn't know how to transfer so kind of them
The experience is good, clean interface (sometimes confusing to find things). Customer support is reasonably friendly but could probably work on their support skills a little.
I really think that there should be a way for underage people to run campaigns or allow them to run a campaign but extended the time that they require a transfer option until a few months after their eighteen birthday.
I also think campaign page customisation should include more options, its quite limited and doesn't allow the person to express their fundraiser through the UI.
