I made a withdraw on 10/08/2026 via bank transfer and I still haven't received my money. I have also sent my bank statement to them for proof that I have not received deposit money from their end. My bank can't see no incoming international payments, and if it were held in at the intermediary bank then it would be here in mY ACC BY NOW surely

User's recommendation: Each to their own

Resolved: No Support

Updated by user Jul 13, 2026

Support closed my case with no reply, but also the service magically started working. Who would have thought.

Original review Jul 13, 2026

On their help center, Skrill state that they aim to respond to all cases within 48 hours. Well, in my case I am coming on 2 weeks and I have yet to get any sort of non-automated reply.

I believe my issue is fairly trivial, but it still does allow a human being to review it. Until then, my funds are essentially being held hostage.

Preferred solution: Deliver product or service ordered

User's recommendation: Do not use

Final payout needed.

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full

They again wanted 5 days to pay out the remaining money in my wallet after they just closed it without contacting me. I think they are scammers and fraudsters.

User's recommendation: Stay away from SKrill. Don't trust them with your money. They are known for steeling your funds.

Dispute on FRAUD and NO Resolution

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
AI Highlights
  • - Opened Skrill per casino guidance; staff helped.
  • - Unauthorized withdrawal from the secured account; no resolution after repeated calls.

I was told that I needed to open a Skrill account to get my money from the casino website. I did that and they helped me with it.

When they deposited my money into the account an unauthorized user went into my SECURED account and withdrew my Money and deposited it into another account. I informed them right away and been dealing with it ever since. I can't get an answer no matter how many times I call the Cust svc Line.

I've called twice a month since February. I need answers

User's recommendation: At this rate I would tell customers to beware and use a different site,.

I need to remove restrictions.

AI Highlights
  • - The call was fine, but I had to use the site since calls weren't accepted.
  • - I waited 6 days and must wait 6 more; Skrill lacks customer service.

The call was good, but the fact that I had to call them from a website is crazy. On the website it said phone calls were not being accepted at this time.

Plus I have waited for 6 days and now I have to wait 6 more days. And when I made a rating, they said to go to the support site, there is nothing there that can help me.

Skrill lacks customer service and support. That is not acceptable.

Preferred solution: Apology

Resolved: Close Account

AI Highlights
  • - I can't log in because I lost my data.
  • - I want to close the Skrill account.
  • - I am bankrupt with a low pension and no money to pay.
Updated by user Mar 04, 2026

They confirmed that they have closed my account. I contacted Skrill via www.pissedconsumer.com and it worked much better than contacting Skrill, because Skrill never answered my messages.

Updated by user Feb 21, 2026

Skrill has cancelled my account and I hope they have also eliminated my personal email address so that other people can't contact me. Thank you for your help.

Original review Feb 17, 2026

I don't use Skrill and I can't log on because I've lost my data information.

I want to close the account please because I don't have any money to pay to maintain

the account. I'm bankrupt and I have been told I have to pay to keep the account open, which is impossible for me because I am paid a very, very low pension and don't have

any money to pay for anything at all.

Thank you for your attention,

Cons:
  • Unable to contact skrill

User's recommendation: It's a very difficult App to use

Very nice. The phone issue has been explained to me; thank you.

I thought there were restrictions on my account, but it wasn't.

It was just a global issue with the app. Thanks for letting me know; I appreciate it.

Got scammed by another Skrill user and *** permanently shut down my account when my bank did a chargeback

stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full stars-rating-full
AI Highlights
  • - I paid a Skrill user for help; they ghosted.
  • - Skrill support didn't reply; I did a chargeback.
  • - Skrill closed my account permanently; no reason given.

A little while ago, I paid another Skrill user to help me do something, and they ghosted me for weeks. *** support never got back to me about it, so I called my bank, and they did a chargeback.

After that, I got an email from *** saying my account had been permanently closed. I immediately tried contacting support about it as well, and... crickets for a month or two.

They eventually got back to me, but they couldn't give me any details on why they shut down my account. Essentially, I got punished because one of ***'s users scammed me, and I dared to try and get my money back because ***'s own support was basically nonexistent.

Cons:
  • Non-existant support for months after i got scammed on their platform
  • Permanently shut down my account and did not say why

Preferred solution: Apology

User's recommendation: Do not use or recommend Skrill
