![]() ![]() Just recently, I experienced something similar when I was the cause of my best friend’s account suspension. ![]() Venmo immediately flagged the transaction under the assumption that she was illegally sending money to Cuba, but she was able to have her account unfrozen after a few calls and emails explaining that she really was paying a portion of an Airbnb stay. ![]() How do I know this? Well first of all, in one instance, a friend told me that her account became frozen when she used the description “Cuba” in a totally harmless way (she was sending her share of an Airbnb to the friend who made the original booking). Of course most of it is done to be funny and playful, but just a word of caution – be careful about what you put in the description, because it could result in someone having a frozen account. If you don’t already know, you can pretty much input whatever you want in the description box, and it’s funny seeing what other people are sending money for when I scroll through the Venmo public feed. I use Venmo between family and friends on a regular basis, and it has been a staple when it comes to instantly splitting costs and paying people back. I really enjoy that it’s seamless and fee-free when you link a checking account to the app. ![]()
