    “Qonto charged our company €100 without any valid justification. The administration acknowledged its mistake and formally notified Qonto, yet Qonto still refused to reverse the charge. Even after we provided documentary evidence, they failed to explain the basis for the fee and instead relied on vague, inconsistent responses.”

    “I wasted more than four hours dealing with automated, copy-and-paste responses that showed no understanding of the issue. Despite providing clear explanations, they failed to grasp one simple principle: you cannot charge a customer for something that never existed. That level of customer service is simply unacceptable.”
