Why was my account blocked after receiving money?

Why was my account blocked after I received a transfer?

Written by Stone Atwine

In some cases, receiving a payment can trigger an automatic security review on your account. This is part of our fraud prevention system and is not a permanent block.
​

Why does this happen?
Our system monitors transactions for unusual patterns to protect all Eversend users. Certain incoming transfers, particularly large amounts or transfers from new senders may trigger a temporary hold while we verify the transaction is legitimate.
​

This is not a judgment on you as a customer. It is an automated process that affects a small number of transactions.
​

What to do
Contact our support team as soon as possible. To speed up the review:

  • Have your account email address ready

  • Be prepared to confirm the source of the funds if asked (for example, who sent the money and why)

Most reviews are completed within 1 business day. Your funds are safe during this time.
​

Important: Do not create a new account while your current account is under review. This may complicate the process.
