URGENT: HoneyBook is holding THOUSANDS from my account!

Hi HoneyBook Community,

I’m reaching out to share a concerning issue I’ve been dealing with for the past few weeks regarding delayed payments. As a long-time user of HoneyBook for several years, I’ve always appreciated the platform’s services and have been willing to invest over $500/year for the convenience it offers. However, this recent experience has been incredibly disappointing and frustrating.

Out of nowhere, HoneyBook has been withholding thousands of dollars in payments that my clients have already made. Despite repeated assurances that the issue is being resolved, I have yet to receive my funds. HoneyBook has cited an issue with my account number, but after confirming with my bank that everything is correct, I provided the requested sensitive information, including banking details and a bank statement, despite my discomfort. Still, the problem persists.

I want to emphasize that I’ve been with HoneyBook for years, have not changed my bank account, and have never had an issue until now. This problem appeared suddenly, without any explanation, and despite communicating with multiple representatives—Leslie, Rain, Norrelle, and Quintin—over the past several days, I keep getting the same responses with no actual resolution. This has been an extremely stressful situation, and the lack of transparency and prompt action from HoneyBook is unacceptable.

I’m posting here in hopes that someone from the community or a moderator can help escalate this issue to upper management. As a small business owner who relies on timely payments to keep my business running, this delay has caused significant disruptions. I’m disappointed that after investing so much into HoneyBook, I’m not receiving the support I need in a critical situation.

I sincerely hope this matter can be resolved quickly. I appreciate any assistance or advice the community can offer.

Thank you.

Hi @aliphoto I’m so sorry to hear you’re going through this stress. I have flagged your case to the support team and have requested they reach out to you this morning with an update. It looks like Quintin was the last team member to help you, but I’m not sure if it will be him or another specialist reaching out today (just as a heads up in case you see a new name pop up).

I’ve been getting this exact message from all of the reps this past week, with no resolution. This is extremely unacceptable. I would like to speak to upper management, and not the same representatives who I've spent hours chasing this week, with no results. 

While I can not promise to get an answer from our payment processor today I can confirm I've reached out asking for an update on this matter.

I'm hoping that our payment processor will provide an update soon on this matter.

@aliphoto Thank you for your persistence and patience as we know payouts are so important to keeping things running smoothly for you. I'm sorry for the extra stress this is causing you. After your reply to me yesterday, I flagged this as an escalation to the team and received an update this morning. They will be reaching out directly to provide more information on the investigation and what to expect. Lily from the team will connect with you today.
