Updating 2 factor phone number

Customer support rep (Sara) did a great job resetting the phone number associated with my 2fa. My issue was resolved quickly and without much demand on my time.

Unreliable Support – Account Ghosted for 30+ Days

If you're running a real business, steer clear of Melio. I set up an account, linked my bank account, integrated to Xero.com, followed all the procedures, and made a payment (with a confirmation of it being processed!). A few hours late they suspended my account because their system "could not verify" information on my company and the payment to not be made. Even worse, I forwarded the payment confirmation to the recipient, only for the payment to never arrive. Talk about a bad look.

The process to resolve this is to email a specific address, which I did three times over the course of a month. I requested next steps and proactively sent our EIN, W-9, and company website details to prove our legitimacy, all without being prompted. Why did I have to go to these lengths? Because Melio has no customer support. I received zero responses from their support or compliance teams in the last month. Good luck trying to call them.

The lack of basic communication is unacceptable from any company. From one that handles financial transactions and has access to my bank account? This is offensively bad. They clearly don't take customer service seriously. Do you really want to trust them with your bank account and payments?

See their unhelpful response below. They make no attempt to resolve any issues. Even more frustrating, they still have access to my bank account and I have no ability to remove it.

Melio did not give option on delivery time - charged a fee

I was receiving money for a school workshop and they were paying me through Melio. Melio sent me an email that the money was being sent to me through instant deposit. I never chose instant deposit - instant deposit takes a fee. I certainly would have waited the three days for the money to keep the whole payment, but no way to change the delivery. Very disappointing for them to take fees for hard working teachers . . . . not giving the option to change delivery time. :( : ( : (

Verified One Hour — Then Shut Down My Business Account. Zero Transparency.

Absolutely unacceptable experience with Melio.

On February 4, 2026, their Compliance Team confirmed in writing that my account was fully verified and updated. No issues. No warnings. Everything supposedly passed their checks.

Shortly after, my business payment was suddenly canceled. No clear explanation — just a generic message about “restrictions.” Then, without any real communication, my entire account was deactivated.

Support was completely useless. I was told they cannot provide any information and that the decision is “likely final,” and that I should contact the Verification department. I did exactly that — and they didn’t even respond. I was completely ignored. This is extremely unprofessional.

I am honestly sick of this kind of attitude toward customers, especially from a company handling business finances.

Imagine trusting a financial platform with your business payments, only to be shut down overnight with zero transparency, no real explanation, and no real appeal process.

This is extremely risky for any business. If you are planning to rely on Melio for payments, understand that even after verification, your account can be disabled at any time and you may never be told why.

Financial platforms should operate with professionalism, transparency, and accountability. Based on my experience, Melio failed on all three.

I would strongly advise businesses to think twice before relying on this platform for critical payment operations.

Hi Alex, thank you for your feedback. While your account was verified on February 4, Melio is required to conduct ongoing monitoring in accordance with our regulatory and compliance obligations. These reviews are part of standard internal procedures.

Due to security and regulatory requirements, our Support team is limited in the level of detail they can share, and account review decisions are handled exclusively by our Verification Team.

We remain committed to maintaining a secure and compliant payments platform for all businesses.

All the best, Team Melio

AI not good; AmandA+ Great!

The AI chat bot BAD; Human service GREAT. The email Melio was not very well worded to guide me to what I needed to do. The AI chat bot was utterly useless until it finally gave me the option of connecting to a live representative.

Amanda was able to help me navigate to where I needed to go in about 30 seconds. She also helped me with a follow up issue that I haven' tried yet but it seems fairly simple. A+ for Amanda, or lets just call her AmandA+!!

Deceiving hidden fees

I've used this service a few times now without any trouble. However, the most recent transaction I elected for the "get paid instantly" option. They make it quite easy with big buttons and quick actionable selections. Paid 22$ for the payment to show up on the same day as regular scheduled payment. Customer service refused to help/refund the amount, claiming I would have received info on when it was going to be delivered. I may have. But, I feel deceived by the wording. I even have a screenshot from 6 days prior to the funds settling that stated it should have been received that 6 days earlier.

I’ve had an ongoing issue with Melio…

I’ve had an ongoing issue with Melio processing payments before the scheduled date, despite clearly setting future payment dates in the system. This has happened multiple times, not just once.

Because of this, funds are withdrawn from my bank account earlier than authorized, causing overdrafts before my weekend deposits arrive. For a small business, this is a serious problem and completely defeats the purpose of scheduling payments.

What’s most frustrating is the lack of effective customer service. I’ve raised this issue repeatedly and never received a real solution or accountability. No clear explanation, no guarantee it won’t happen again.

I rarely leave negative reviews, but this has become exhausting. If you depend on accurate payment scheduling to manage cash flow, be very careful using Melio.

Hi Marcelo,

Thank you for taking the time to share this feedback. We understand how disruptive this issue may be, and that’s not the experience we aim to provide.

We’ve escalated this issue internally so it can be reviewed more closely, including the repeated nature of the behavior you described. Your concerns around early withdrawals, overdrafts, and the lack of a clear resolution from prior support interactions are being taken seriously.

We want to ensure this is properly investigated and the agent with whom you have been in contact will follow up with more information.

We appreciate you raising this and sharing your perspective—it helps us improve where we need to.

Lost ACH Payments and Lack of Resolution

I began using Melio approximately two months ago. During this period, the company processed four ACH payments on my behalf. However, three of those payments failed to reach my account and remain unaccounted for.

Despite multiple inquiries, Melio representatives have not provided any clear explanation or resolution. I have repeatedly been told that the matter is “under review,” yet no substantive updates have been given. Melio has not clarified whether the funds were deposited into an incorrect account, when or if the missing funds will be recovered, or whether there has been any security breach involving my account.

The company’s lack of transparency, accountability, and effective communication has been extremely concerning. Efforts to obtain assistance through their customer support have been unproductive, as I am consistently redirected to online chat agents—with each interaction beginning anew and no meaningful progress made. Requests for a direct phone discussion have also been declined.

Based on my experience over the past two weeks, it has become evident that Melio’s handling of this issue has been deeply unsatisfactory. I strongly urge any current or prospective users to exercise caution when considering using their services until these systemic issues are addressed.

*Edited to add their little please reach out to us response below is scripted. I reached out to them and huge shock - no response. Don't believe they are actually interested in resolving anything.
