HelloPaisa appears to be operating as a scam. They deserve a zero-star rating. I sent money from Australia to Zimbabwe 15 days ago, and all I receive are excuses about "technical difficulties" each time I inquire about the transfer. This service is unacceptable.It's a trash🚮

Thieves
They are always scamming people their money. Its the second time money transferred into my account (hello paisa account) does not reflect. First consultant told me the amount is reflecting on their side and l should wait few hours and second consultant tells me there is no money showing and my calls are no longer answered. Had to engage my lawyer the first time and seems like l have to engage him again and the SAPC. Its really sressful and draining.

I regret using Paisa
I regret using Paisa, and would never ever recommend it to anyone. I've been having a problem getting my refund because there was money I sent to Zimbabwe unfortunately I think there was a technical problem then I sent a wrong reference when making payment. I was told to send proof of payment which i did. Now I've phoned close to ten times with no help from last week. The response I get from everyone is that ,they are sending the query to the finance but have never got feedback. I'm tired of this pillar to post thing I just need my money back. Another agent even dropped the phone on me.

Hi Andy,
We’re very sorry to hear about your recent experience — we understand how distressing this must be, especially given the circumstances.
At HelloPaisa, protecting our customers is a top priority, and we’re required to act swiftly when a transaction is flagged for unusual or high-risk activity. That said, we recognise how frustrating it can be to have your funds held up, particularly when you're relying on immediate access.
Thank you for your patience — we truly hope to earn back your trust.

Hi Berlin,
We’re truly sorry to hear about your experience. Having your account blocked, especially after a large transaction, is understandably stressful — and we apologise for any lack of communication or courtesy you may have received during the process.
As a regulated financial institution, HelloPaisa is required to follow strict compliance procedures for certain transactions, especially large transfers. This is in line with industry standards to protect both our customers and the integrity of the financial system.
That said, your experience with our customer service team does not reflect the level of professionalism we aim to uphold. We appreciate you bringing this to our attention and we will address it internally.
Thank you for your feedback — it helps us improve our service to all customers.
Blocked account…
They blocked my account just after my salary was paid, the reason being suspicion of fraud activities. How can they suspect fraud where as i only recieve money from 2 companies that i work for and for the past 3 years i have been recieving funds from only those 2 companies. They didnt even send me a notification massage to say account has been blocked. Imagin after eating in a restaurant only to find out acc is blocked on paying your bill. Very embarrasing.
Hellopaisa people are very very unprofessional

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We’re genuinely sorry to hear about the inconvenience and embarrassment caused, and we completely understand how frustrating this must have been — especially under those circumstances.
As a financial institution, we are required to follow strict compliance and anti-fraud regulations, which sometimes means that accounts may be temporarily suspended for review when certain activity is flagged.

Hi Nasreen,
Thank you for raising your concern.
We take fraud and scams very seriously at HelloPaisa. Our customers’ safety is a top priority, and we have strict compliance and verification processes in place to prevent abuse of our platform. Unfortunately, scammers are constantly evolving their tactics, which is why we work closely with the South African Reserve Bank and our banking partners to monitor, detect, and shut down suspicious activity as quickly as possible.
If you have any details about the incident, please report it to us directly at reportfraud@hellogroup.co.za so we can investigate further and take appropriate action.
We appreciate you taking the time to bring this to our attention.
This company deserves 0%
This company deserves 0%. I sent money to my mother 4 days ago from United Kingdom to South Africa and she hasn't received her money. I tried calling customer service and they are very rude and offer poor customer service, before you even finish talking they hang up on you especially the male consultant. I keep telling them my problem and all they say is we have escalated the issue even when I have given them all the required information about my transaction. All I want is my money. I work too hard for it.

Their customer service is very poor
Their customer service is very poor. The lowest rating is 1, but I wanted to rate them 0. I have been waiting for them to resolve my pending transaction for more than 48 hours, but every time I contact their customer support keep on saying the issue will be resolved within 48 hours.
