I signed up for Venmo to pay someone mowing my yard. My bank account was verified and then when I went to make the payment it kept getting declined. I called Venmo several times to find out why. They would only tell me there is a security issue. They admitted that there was nothing wrong with my bank and said the issue was on the Venmo end. However, they could not tell me what the security issue is, and don't even have any knowledge about their own application. Save yourself some time and avoid Venmo.
