### "Square are the biggest CROOKS. VERY VERY ANGRY WITH THEM" — 1.0/5

> **Tracy** | *26 September 2024* | Health, Wellness & Fitness | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Took a long time to set things up and me not being very web savvy extra effort from me to have to get done
> 
> **Cons**: the live chat service. very non-helpful and rude
> 
> I will not be recommending square to any of my counterparts. I went to all the effort of setting all this up. Got rejected for some reason on accepting credit cards and so they completely shut my account down and wouldn't let me log in again. Took off with my one months subscription too. And gave me no excuse as to what actually went on. Complete and utter CROOKS. and very angry about this as i barely have a minute as it is to scratch myself  - very busy massage therapist.&#10;&#10;I have certs verifying i am fully trained in my field. A business rego/ABN and a business account set up with ANZ who never had an issue dealing with me.&#10;&#10;Feel i've been treated like a second class citizen, maybe because I'm from overseas ?
