Reply from GoFundMe

Hi Robert, It looks like our team emailed you on September 3, 2017, asking for more information to verify your campaign. We never heard back from you until you wrote into WePay with a question on September 17th. We responded on September 18th after WePay sent your email over to us and from there we were able to immediately clear your campaign to withdraw the funds. For future reference, please respond to our verification emails quickly if you are having trouble withdrawing your funds. Now, it looks like you've received all of your funds, and we're hopeful that the those funds were able to help your daughter rebuild after Hurricane Harvey.

They take WAY too long to transfer funds...im in a huge bind because of it!!! And no PayPal really complicates things a lot...if PayPal started their own crowdfunding site they would probably squash GoFundMe.

Hi John, My name is Rudolph, and I'm a Customer Happiness Lead here at GoFundMe. In reviewing your account, it looked like you wrote in to request assistance in making a withdrawal on June 27th, 2017, and our team responded to you with steps to withdraw your funds in approximately three minutes. My records show you were able to then successfully withdraw your funds. Please note that all withdrawals takes 2-5 business days when sent via direct deposit. More information can be found here: I speak for the rest of the team when I say I hope the funds were helpful to you in a tough time. All the best, -Rudolph

Hamster Xd

Such a shame that an amazing concept to aid those in need feels that a 7.9% fee is fair to take from donations. It's an utter insult to the donor and receipient. Beware!!! Choose another method!!!

6 years ago

Reply from GoFundMe

Hi Hamster, Thank you for this honest feedback! We always make it a point to be up-front and transparent about our fees which is why we list them on the sign-up screen when creating a campaign. You may be excited to learn that we've recently waived our 5% platform fee for personal campaigns in the US, UK, and Canada, which means most campaigns on GoFundMe will now only have a payment processing fee, which is roughly 3% (it varies slightly by country).
