Hi Elizabeth, Thank you for your feedback and for bringing this matter to our attention, kabayan. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience this has caused you and your receiver. Upon reviewing our system, we confirm that your transaction has been processed and fully credited to your receiver's account. Once the funds have been transferred, the transaction is beyond our direct control. However, please rest assured that our support team is actively working on your case. In the meantime, kindly check your email for further details. As instructed by GCash, your receiver needs to submit a support ticket regarding the transaction. We would appreciate your receiver’s cooperation in providing the ticket number so that we can forward it to GCash for resolution. We value your patience and cooperation in this matter.

You cannot even send money to a friend. LOL I should've said "abuloy ko for my friend" rather than "ipinasuyo sakin ng friend ko." I e-transferred the money right away but they cannot e-transfer it back to me, ridiculous. >_

Hi, Katrina! Thank you for your review and for bringing this matter to our attention. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience caused. You may send money to your friend in the Philippines; however, we can only process payments using the account owner's funds. If the transaction involves funds from a friend, we suggest that your friend create their own account for seamless processing. Additionally, we recommend using your referral link to invite your friend who needs to send money to the Philippines. This way, you'll help your friend send money easily, and you could also earn a reward of C$100 for three successful referrals! 🥰 If you have any questions or need further assistance, please feel free to email us at info@kabayanremit.com.

Hi Kabayan! Thank you for your review and for raising your concern. We apologize for the delay in your recent transaction. Upon checking in our system, the reason why your transfer has not been processed is because the account does not exist. We have already sent you an email and will call you back for further assistance. When sending money to a mobile wallet, please keep in mind to check if the receiver's number is verified and the provider's name is. Delivering your hard-earned money to your loved ones safely will always be our number one priority, kabayan. 🙏

My experience was terrible, my daughter and my son, sent a big amount (P125,000 each, total of P250,000), they canceled without any notice, no email no text, my family back home waited for a week for the money but didn't arrived, my kids checked their transaction after 6 days, that's how they saw that their transaction was canceled, Imagine for 6 days, they if my kids didn't checked our money, they are using it for their benefit, we sent the money for emergency purposes but they canceled without any notice, we work hard to earn money here in Canada and we'll lose it for this company! I'm so very upset. So no more Kabayan remit for me. This is a fraud!

Hi Kabayan! We'll always do our best to deliver your money to your loved ones as quickly as possible. Transfers below Php 50,000 are usually delivered within an hour. However, larger transfers take longer, as sometimes we need to conduct additional checks or banks may take longer to process.

I initially sent a remittance to a colleague in the Philippine. A couple of days later, I contacted Kabayan Remit to change the remittee's legal first name. You guys deleted the entire remittance! I had it resent twice before it was completed!!! All you say are "apologies".

Hi Juanito, Thank you for your review and for raising your concern about this matter. To clarify, since we need to change your receiver's name, we will update it and create a replacement. To do this, we need to delete your previous transaction to prevent it from going through and to allow us to create a replacement. We appreciate your understanding, and we thank you for your continued use of our service for your remittance needs.
