Payment of $55.00 on Hold – Immediate Action Required
Dear Customer,
You have received a payment of $55.00 USD via Venmo®️ Business from the buyer. The payment has been approved but is currently on hold because your account is not yet registered as a Business Account.
To complete this transaction and release your funds, your account needs to be upgraded to a Venmo Business profile. Please contact the buyer to assist by sending an additional $500.00 USD as a temporary security hold. This will help us verify and increase your transaction limit.
Once your account has been upgraded, your balance will automatically reflect a total of $555.00 USD, and you will receive a Business Account Upgrade Certificate for confirmation.
This process is fully secured to ensure neither party loses any funds during the transaction.
For immediate assistance and to confirm your upgrade, please contact Venmo Support at:
📞 +1 (307) 365-9792
Thank you for using Venmo ®️ — fast, rsafe, and easy payments.
