4 working days, still no money

Now the 4th day of expecting funds to have been withdrawn without any form of communication. I've paid £15 for the privilege of a 1 to 2 business day turnaround.

I have serious concerns about this service.

***Update***

Money now received, amazing what a trust pilot review will do.

My advice to anyone considering using this site is to not.

Long time user

We’ve been using Viing for quite a while now and have consistently seen improvements over time. It’s an excellent platform with great features, and the customer support is always responsive and helpful. Highly recommended.

I really love the concept of Viing...but

I really love the concept of Viing — it’s a wonderful idea for sending meaningful, heartfelt messages to someone special, and when everything works, the experience feels unique and thoughtful.
However, the platform’s withdrawal reliability and support responsiveness have been ongoing issues for me:

NatWest withdrawals don’t work
For some reason, I can’t withdraw funds to my NatWest account, even though other banks seem to work fine. I’ve contacted support multiple times, but nobody has been able to resolve the issue.

Very slow customer support
Responses are extremely slow — usually only after sending a second or even third reminder. This makes resolving issues quite frustrating. I have emailed both hi @ viing.co.uk and team @ viing.com, but still no improvement in response time.

Recent withdrawal issue
In my latest case, the contribution for an ex‑colleague was sent immediately without requesting his bank details, which is very different from my previous experiences. I have contacted support about this and am still waiting for an explanation.

One of my dashboards has disappeared
One of the dashboards I regularly use has suddenly disappeared from my Viing account, and I have no idea why it no longer shows up. I’m not sure if I clicked something wrong or if this is another system glitch. This makes tracking contributions difficult and adds more uncertainty.

Thanks so much for sharing your thoughts. We're really glad you love the concept of Viing, and we truly appreciate your feedback. We’re sorry to hear you've had some issues with withdrawals and support, though.

Regarding the NatWest withdrawal issue, it might be worth checking with them to see why the transactions are failing, as we haven't had reports of this being a general issue on our end.

We’ve recently made some updates to the interface, so things may look a bit different. The feature you used to rely on is still there, just in a new layout.

It sounds like you’re using the Viing Credit option, which gives the recipient more flexibility. When you withdraw and select Viing Credit, they receive an email to claim it and can choose a gift from our shop or transfer the funds to their own bank account.

We always aim to get back to customers within 24 hours, and we’re working on improving response times. Thanks again for your patience, and don’t hesitate to reach out if you need anything else!

Fantastic enterprise

Fantastic enterprise! It's incredibly user-friendly, enabling individuals from all over to participate in gifting and card signing. There are numerous choices for various events such as newborn celebrations, nuptials, and anniversaries. The exceptional customer support truly stands out. I would surely suggest it to others and plan to utilize it again.

Initially

Initially, I encountered a problem while trying to access the voucher since the original link wouldn't open. Fortunately, Johnny answered all my inquiries and provided a new link, which seems to work now. I'm really grateful, as my former colleagues put together this farewell gift, and I'm thrilled to finally be able to use it.

PLEASE RESPOND TO MY EMAILS

PLEASE RESPOND TO MY EMAILS. I have been trying to get in touch for the past few weeks, and after 2 unhelpful responses, you've ignored me. I have sent the potluck to my friend, and when she redeemed it, the money did not go to her. Instead, it says 'failed to withdraw.' The potluck is at 0, and I haven't gotten the money back either. Where has the money gone if not to my friend or back to me and certainly not on the website??!

Edit because I was informed I had to or my review would get deleted: My reference for this service is VG-3q0P3. After a total of 8 emails I have sent out on both emails they have listed as their customer service emails, I’ve been ignored until I posted this review here. Only after that and an additional email to them requesting help once again did they reply. When they did reply, they claimed that my friend already claimed the money. HOWEVER, they took that back and then said they sent out a refund because they suspected my friend (the recipient of the gviing) of fraud. Without telling either of us. Horrible lack of transparency and egregious communication (or rather, lack thereof) with the customer. The issue was resolved in the end, a month after the viing occasion ended. Please improve on your customer service and communication in order to maintain trust in your services.

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We’re sorry that the turnaround took longer than expected. This is an exceptionally busy period for us, and while we always aim to meet our usual timelines, there was an unexpected delay on this occasion.

We have responded to your email and hope the recipient is happy with their Viingboard.

Great Service & Support

I've used Viing on and off for a number of years and I have always found the platform and the support to be excellent.
This time, I've had a couple of questions relating to my account and Johnny has been really helpful and responsive. I can't fault the customer support team.

I think it's a great platform for collections, particularly when you have colleagues across different countries and currencies.

No complaints from me!

Outstanding experience from Team Viing

Got the most amazing customer experience from Johnny after a contributor had a moment and wrote her comments for the wrong person. We were able to get it sorted in minutes and let her relax.

Poking yourself in the eye makes more sense than using Viing.

Unless you like driving yourself mad and wasting your own time, do not use this site. Cumbersome and convoluted to use. Have to give your details to do anything. Bought a voucher with my balance. 20 hours later and still not there. The product I wanted to spend voucher on has now gone.

Thank you for getting in touch and sharing your concerns. We are sorry to hear about the frustration you’ve experienced.

While we strive to make our platform as smooth as possible, some steps, such as providing basic details, are essential for secure transactions and ensuring our service works as intended.

We would also like to clarify that the majority of our vouchers are processed the same day. However, in certain circumstances we are required to carry out additional security and verification checks. These checks are in place to protect our customers and can take up to 24 hours to complete. Your order fell within that small percentage requiring extra review, which is why it may have took longer than usual.

We’re always looking to improve, and we genuinely welcome any feedback you may have about your experience. Your insights help us refine our service and ensure it works better for everyone.
