On XX/XX/XXXX, I sent XXXX XXXX {$450.00} to pay for for my portion of the cost of accommodations for our upcoming trip to XXXX. On XX/XX/XXXX, I sent her the remaining {$200.00}. for a total of {$650.00}. Both transactions were through Cash App. On XX/XX/XXXX, XXXX informed me that her Cash App account was frozen and asked it mine was. At the time I had no money in Cash App so I told her that it seemed okay. On XX/XX/XXXX, a co-worker reimbursed me {$20.00} through Cash App. When I attempted to retrieve my funds, I received a notification from Cash App stating that We noticed suspicious activity and have suspended your account as a precaution. Please contact support to access your account. On XX/XX/XXXX, I responded to Cash App Supports email, requesting information related to the transaction. I told them that I was going to XXXX to participate in a XXXX and the {$650.00} was for my portion of the accommodations/lodging while there. 
On XX/XX/XXXX, I contacted Cash App to get an update on the investigation. I did not receive a response until XX/XX/XXXX. In their email to me, they asked XXXX additional questions. 

Cash App allowed me to send the {$20.00} in my Cash App account to my bank on XX/XX/XXXX.

I traveled to XXXX and back with no issues with XXXX XXXX. My money and XXXX has been locked in CashApp since XXXX so no money exchanged via your app was used in XXXX. Please share what legal authority do you have to continue to withhold our funds? 

Thank you, XXXX XXXX CFPB, It is now XX/XX/XXXX and Cash App continues to cause substantial anguish and hardship by not releasing mine and XXXX XXXX funds. Please resolve this matter by helping requiring Cash App to refund to my banking institution the total of {$650.00}.

Thank you.
