Wise.

A warning to anyone using Wise or thinking of Wise. Their wonderful AI assistant just told me a flat out lie to get me to deposit money. My account was restricted about a week ago. They held my money and did not transmit in. Then they returned it. So today I go to wise to transfer about 85k baht. I see no notice of restriction. So to double check I open chat and ask is my account restricted. No says the AI assitant, I have checked and there is no restriction. So I do the transfer. Then it flashes up your account is restricted. They have taken the money out of the bank but not sending it. So I ask to speak to a human. Their response, hard luck. The AI assistant got it wrong we can not tell you how long we will hold your money or when we will send it on. In the space of a week thats nearly 200000 baht they have grabbed. Think how many others they are doing it to and earning interest on short term deposits. I suggest everybody switches to Remitly or something else. You simply cannot trust Wise anymore. Even a request to find out how long a restriction lasts is met with a shrug.....its another team, might be ten days, might be weeks.
