TLDR : Answer Summary

A user is experiencing repeated problems accessing their Wise account through the app, specifically encountering advertisements that prevent account access. Other users suggest potential solutions, including checking the legitimacy of the app and trying alternative services like Remitly and Western Union. Some users report they have had no issues with Wise, indicating a possible app legitimacy concern. The original poster later confirms their issue is resolved.

No problems here. And also I've never seen ads in it.

You might be on the w ing website or have a fake app.

Confirm you're on the legit app? This is the link.

It will say "uninstall" if you already have it. If it says "install" Your apps not legit and I'd start to investigate more thoroughly.

Popular alternatives would be Western Union or Remitly and there are probably others.

There's no advertising on the Wise app. I'd guess you've been directed to a scam site. I'd be very careful.

I don’t think I’ve ever seen an advert on their app (iPhone). Sometimes I see warning pop ups about delays due to holidays and the like but you just click off of those.

No idea why you’d be having issues. How are you trying to access? Via their app or website? If the latter try a different browser.
