I started a Stripe account (even incorporated through them) for a basic graphic design and web design service business.

I process a few charges and even though I didn't get a single chargeback or dispute, Stripe decided to deactivate my account and said they would refund all the charges that were processed.

Which would have been fine with me. They said they would refund on Oct 17, but that date came and past. So I kept emailing.

Now they're saying they're holding all the funds for 120 days because of "elevated risk".

Which is insane because they have already withdrawn all the funds, meaning their risk would be zero if they refunded everyone.

I am beyond hurt and confused as I did need this money for my daughter. These decisions have real impacts on real families.

What do you do in this scenario? I have tried contacting support at Stripe but seems to be of no help.","time":1666453395,"title":"Ask HN: Stripe holding funds for 120 days for no reason","type":"story"}],[25029285,{"by":"xoxoy","descendants":40,"id":25029285,"kids":[25030338,25029606,25031545,25030176,25029966,25034447,25030295,25032114,25031002,25029551,25031703,25035359,25065486,25030629,25035091,25031000,25031159,25033093,25046400,25035690,25036578,25032869,25031546,25030114,25065164,25031981,25030715,25035813,25055827,25045539,25030171,25030429,25036609,25030064,25033104,25030612],"score":49,"text":"I got lucky at a few startups in my mid-20s and now in my early 30s feeling a profound loss of motivation to continue working or developing a career after achieving a comfortable worry-free level of financial success.
