Company: Zip Co US Inc.
State: MD

Complaint narrative:
Zip has repeatedly blocked my access to my account over the past 3 years, despite promises that their system had been fixed, they would not do so, and if it ever happened again I would be able to get it promptly resolved. When I submitted CFPB complaint XXXX, I also sent a letter to the company in writing requesting that my issue be sent to binding arbitration. Zip 's terms of service state that if I have a dispute with the company, I am able to request binding arbitration, and that if I request the company pay all of the fees relating to the arbitration, they will do so. Zip has not responded to my arbitration request. Instead, they responded to my previous CFPB complaint with an obvious lie ( they blamed my account being locked for over 2.5 weeks on a " bug, '' when in reality it was their overzealous sercurity filter behaving exactly as it was programmed to do, and then no one in the customer service department resolving my complaint within the promised time frame and taking weeks to unlock my account.

I have had to spend real money to send my arbitration request to Zip, so I have incurred actual financial losses as a result of this company 's actions, not to mention the countless hours of lost time and energy spent trying to deal with this. The company 's terms and conditions says we can do binding arbitration and the comapny 's expense, and this is what I am requesting. I have made the request in writing via USPS mail, and I have also emailed this request to Zip at least 5 different times at this point.

Company: Mercari, Inc.
State: MD

Complaint narrative:
I purchased a XXXX XXXX from a seller on Mercari. When the item arrived, it was completely broken and unusable. I immediately went into the app to try to initiate a return so I could receive a full refund. Upon doing so, the Mercari system automatically issued my refund as an account credit instead of refunding my original payment method. I contacted customer service to request my original payment method be credited, but they have refused to do this. Instead, they have added my funds to my Mercari account balance, and the only way I can get the money out of the Mercari account is by paying a {$2.00} ACH fee or a {$3.00} instant transfer fee. There is no free transfer option. I believe this is unethical and potentially illegal. I paid for an item which was not received in the condition I was promised, and now this company is trying to charge me a fee in order to receive my refund.

They are saying my refund was processed by their automated system because it was under a " nominal amount, '' but their website policies make no reference of what the value of a nominal transaction is, and regardless of this, I have indicated my full willingness to return this item in order to receive my refund. Their customer service has refused and the only option I have been offered is the refund with a {$2.00} or {$3.00} fee. This is unacceptable. My mercari account is registered under my email XXXX and attached are the email threads with Mercari customer support regarding this issue.
