Review summary

Based on reviews, created with AI

Reviewers overwhelmingly had a great experience with this company. Customers consistently praise the platform for its efficiency, transparency, and ease of use, highlighting the straightforward and stress-free experience. Many appreciate the instant payment processing, the variety of convenient payment options, and the low transfer fees. People also found the setup lightning-fast, the interface intuitive, and the overall service reliable for sending and receiving payments. However, some customers also noted significant issues with customer service and account verification. A few people were dissatisfied with the lack of clear communication, slow response times, and the inability to withdraw funds due to prolonged "under review" statuses or unverified accounts. Some reviewers reported that their accounts were blocked or suspended without clear explanations, and that support agents provided unhelpful or contradictory replies.

Flagged account with no clear reason

My account has been showing “Under Review” for over two months, even though I completed the identity verification when I updated my payment method. There are no pending actions displayed in my CrowdGen payment tab, and nothing on my.dots.dev indicating that further steps are required.

Because of this ongoing review status, I haven't been able to receive my paycheck from my company, and my payment of $600 has been stuck with no progress. It has been extremely frustrating, especially since the only response I’ve received from the finance team is to “wait,” without any clear timeline or explanation.

This is my first time experiencing an issue with Dots Payments, and I’m really disappointed with the overall customer support so far.

Given the impact on my income and the length of time this issue has remained unresolved

DM Clinical staff

DM Clinical staff, especially the individuals located in Jersey City were very informative, friendly and helpful. They really made me feel comfortable. I hope this continues. It is a great feeling to work with people in this type of environment

Payments are a strong feature

Has a good choice of Payment methods, that are very convenient to make use of. Invoices and payments are a strong feature of Appen. But chat support is very important and so far none in sight.

But again we need better communication. Paypal was taken off the Payment methods chart and I was not even informed as Paypal was my default payment method and hence my last payment transaction failed. Hence communication lines like chat support are a necessity.
