Hello Michael, Thank you for sharing what you experienced. Opening a new account should feel simple and frictionless, and we are very sorry that instead you faced frustrating delays and issues with receiving your debit card. This is not the standard we set for ourselves and anyone who chooses to bank with us. Upon further review, we can confirm that both your physical and mailing address was not captured correctly during onboarding, resulting in your debit card being sent to the wrong address. While it is unclear the cause of the mismatched city and zipcode, the debit card has since been canceled, and a replacement card was sent as soon as the requested documentation was received and the address change was approved. Whenever an address change occurs, we have policies and procedures in place to verify the request with a proof of address. However, we recognize that the time it took to resolve this took far longer than expected, and we truly appreciate your patience while we completed due diligence to ensure the address was verified and corrected. Your feedback is important to us, and it has been shared with our leadership team to help us address any gaps and strengthen our internal processes so that similar complications do not happen again. It is our hope that this isolated experience does not impact your overall perception of us and that our commitment to better serving clients is clear moving forward. If there is anything else we can do to better support you in the future, do not hesitate to reach out. We are always here to help. Only Forward, Grasshopper Bank

Hello Robert, Thank you for updating your review and sharing your perspective with us. We truly understand how frustrating it can be when a transfer doesn’t arrive as expected and when the support you receive doesn’t fully address the concern you reached out about. No one wants to feel unheard when managing their business finances. We also appreciate your patience regarding the timing of our original reply. While our responses go through internal review to ensure accuracy and protect client information, we recognize that the process took longer than it should have. You’re right to expect quicker communication, and we’re actively working on improving our response times so clients feel supported as issues arise—not weeks later. Your feedback is important, and it helps us strengthen the way we show up for our clients. If there’s anything else you’d like to discuss or clarify, our U.S.-based Client Services team is here to help. Only Forward, Grasshopper Bank

Hi Bill, Thank you for taking the time to share your concerns. We understand how stressful situations involving returned or stopped-payment checks can be, especially when they impact your business. At this time, we haven’t been able to locate an account or under your name in our records, so the following is intended as general information about how banks typically handle these situations. If a deposited item is reversed by the issuer, banks have an obligation to review the activity associated with an account to ensure all funds tied to that transaction are handled correctly. In some cases, this can lead to temporary holds or account restrictions while the review is completed. While the review process doesn’t always align with what clients expect, the intent is never to disrupt operations or unnecessarily delay access to funds. We’re sorry to hear you felt unsupported during this experience, and we’d like the opportunity to take a closer look. Please respond to our request for more information sent on our behalf by Trustpilot so we can investigate this properly. In the meantime, we will be using this feedback as an opportunity to strengthen how we communicate and support clients in similar situations. Only Forward, Grasshopper Bank

Hello Douglas, Thank you for sharing your experience with us. We understand how concerning it can be to receive an “invalid” message when activating a debit card and then reach a support number that doesn’t appear connected to your bank — anyone would feel uncertain in that situation. To clarify, your account was closed after an initial funding deposit was returned. Because of this, the debit card that had been issued before the closure was no longer active in our system, which is why the activation attempt and phone number verification didn’t align. We recognize how confusing this must have felt and appreciate you bringing it to our attention. We’re glad to hear our team was able to assist you in completing the funding requirement and getting your account reinstated. Should any further questions arise, we’re just a call or message away, and we look forward to their feedback as you access your account and explore our digital platform. Only Forward, Grasshopper Bank

Hello, Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts. We understand that sometimes handling everything online can feel impersonal, but we can assure you that 100% of our Client Services team is U.S.-based and staffed by real, dedicated humans, not robots After taking a closer look, we found that your account was closed due to a funding deposit return, and any remaining funds were sent back to the originating institution in line with our policies and procedures. However, the time it takes for the funds to be available in your account depends on the other institution’s policy and procedures While this may not have been the desired outcome, and this process doesn’t always match clients’ expectations, we can assure you that it’s never our intention to create confusion or cause frustration. We also understand that Grasshopper isn’t always the right fit for every business, and it is our hope that you’ve found a solution that aligns more with your goals and needs. Only Forward, Grasshopper Bank

Hello there, Thank you for your feedback. We strive to address and resolve every issue efficiently and effectively, and we’re sorry to hear that this wasn’t how the process felt on your end. We’ve investigated this further, and our internal review confirms that your account was closed, which initiated the return-of-funds process in line with our standard policies and procedures. While the steps taken were consistent with those requirements, we recognize that your experience may not have felt as clear or well-communicated as it should have been. This highlights an opportunity for us to improve how we guide clients through sensitive situations like this, and we will be working with our team to enhance both our internal processes and the way we communicate through them. Although Grasshopper may not have been the right fit for your business, we hope you found a banking partner that aligns more with your goals and needs. Only Forward, Grasshopper Bank

Hi Tyrhonda, Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We’re sorry to hear that it was not as expected, and we can assure you that is never our intention to create confusion or frustration. After taking a closer look, we can confirm that your account was closed due to a funding deposit return, and any remaining funds were sent back to the originating institution in line with our policies and procedures. Although this may not have been the desired outcome, we recognize how confusing it would be to receive your debit card and then find that it can’t be activated due to an account closure. We’ve shared this with our team and will be working to refine our back-office processes to ensure that a similar situation does not occur again in the future. We appreciate you taking the time to share your experience, as feedback like yours helps us continue to improve. While Grasshopper may not always be the right fit for every business, we hope you’ve found a solution that better meets your goals and needs. Only Forward, Grasshopper Bank

Hello David, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us. We understand how frustrating it can be when you’re seeking support and the process feels unclear or unresponsive. As a federally regulated bank, we follow strict guidelines when handling deposits, returns, and transactions that involve another financial institution. In situations where an external bank is the one that ultimately processes or clears an item, there are limits to what we’re permitted to intervene in, which can understandably feel confusing from the client’s perspective. We appreciate you bringing this to our attention, and your feedback helps us continue improving how we communicate during situations that require coordination between banks. If there is anything further you need or any documentation we can provide, our team is here to help. Only Forward, Grasshopper Bank
