Fees are ridiculous
Hi Varo Bank Support Team -
I noticed several fees on my Varo Bank account that I would like to ask for a refund on. I have been a loyal customer of Varo Bank and hope to continue, but these fees are becoming really frustrating...
Especially when there are now so many fee-free banks and its been such a tough year!
Can I get a refund on the $164.50 from my transactions below?

Thanks POd consumer
They sent me an email with no actual information to contact them. I am not installing the app because I should not have to in order to close the account.
Completely. The app is for people who have accounts and intend on being customers. I'm not installing anything. I want to speak with a person.
I have called the number and was on hold both times over 30 minutes. If I press 0 or #, or *, it hangs up.This is not customer service.
If not for this platform I would not have received the automated email from Varo, which was another dead end and also another reason why I do not want them handling my money. Way to go, Varo.
It takes a negative consumer review to get a response from you? I wonder what I need to do to get a live person on the phone?
Preferred solution: I want the account closed, completely.

Resolved: My credit has not been updated and my advance is only 50 and it should be way higher
Credit score has not been raised at Varo, but my credit score is a 681 everywhere else except Varo. I've been a customer for several years and owed them $900 before and paid it off without a problem.
For some reason, I can only borrow like 50 bucks now on my advance. They're treating me like I owe money, and I don't. I have direct deposit right there to this bank, and they keep saying that I don't have qualifying direct deposits when I do.
I've been a customer there for a very long time. I think Varo could be a better company if they would do a little bit better and treat people better.
User's recommendation: Not sure at this time

Why did you not verify fee-free ATMs before signing with Varo? And why did you not check after being charged the first $3.50?
