Kabayan REIT customer service is atrocious. If you complain, all they say is ‘sorry to hear that’. They promise to phone back after my formal complaint and they never do. The manager is always in a meeting. Kabayan is ok if it goes right but you will never get an answer to a problem. My complaint was on 31March. In spite of an email, numerous email chasers and about 5 phone calls NOTHING. They do not care

Such a nightmare. A bank to bank transaction should be an easy transaction but it has become a nightmare and the funds are not in the account yet. The service is not reliable. I will not use the service anymore, beware.

Thank you for your review and for raising your concern regarding our services, Mr Peter Bucsit. We would like to sincerely apologize for any inconvenience caused. Please be advised that we take great care in ensuring that every feedback from our customers is thoroughly investigated. We always aim to deliver our customers' money as safely and quickly as possible. However, the delivery time may be affected due to different factors. With our intention of fulfilling transactions faster, after creating one, it generally gets forwarded to the bank automatically without human intervention. We don't intend to prolong your transaction's crediting time. For this particular case, we heavily relied on your recipient's bank for feedback (e.g. transaction status, credited, undelivered, the bank was offline) and when and what actions we will take next. We will appreciate your understanding and thank you for your continued use of our service for your remittance needs.

This is a terrible website. It says invalid credentials (incorrect password) but I am 100% it was correct. Then it won't accept my intended recipient's email address saying invalid - and I have been communicating with the intended recipient just for the last 20 years with the same email address!! All the time I spent registering then trying to log in is just a waste of time. I will just continue using another company t send money to the Philippines.

Getting worst, ever since they changed from asenso to kabayan, there is always a delay. Few months ago it was hours delay but lately it was 1 day delay, I have to call customer service to follow up.

Why the first time I sent money that cost $100 it was on hold and asking for proof of fund, why the second time I sent money that cost $511.99 it was not hold and I was not ask for a compliance. If I know that it will happen, I will never send money thru you guys. I better send it to western union, I just trusted the filipino workmate of my wife recommending me your company. I just cant cancel the transaction as it says there that it was automatically deposited to Asensoremit. If you think of my situation, what will i think of you? At this time. Put me in your shoes being a customer. It is very disapointed. After I trusting taking picture of my ownself and my passport in your website , why you did not ask for a compliance at that time, why you guys did not ask a proof of fund or a so that I will say no no no to send, because it was night time here past 11pm and I was too far away from the town or city. Now it was on hold for in how many days. Is that right holding money from other people?. Just return the whole amount of money. Do not hold it. Think that this money is very important for the kids allowance. You should have a good heart.

Everything went wrong every time I try to send money. I have used Asenso Remit for many years without problems, but now with kabayan I will never send again. I will find another remit co. This new system is ridiculous.
