I open my account online

I open my account online, easy process, it's a friendly bank, I sent my invoices with payment links through the bank integration with stripe, but stripe requires you to have a full web page for your business so I had to run to got my page for be able to use the invoice system.
They didn't have integration with Zelle what is a shame.
It's easy to use, they have the tap and go receiving payments using the app (what I love)
Customer service only need them once and they call me, because I didn't set something in my account and they offer my the option, so nice.
My debit card ask me if I want to use as debit or credit card, what is interesting too

this is the worst bank I’ve ever had and it’s not even close. It takes 7 days for a deposit to clear, then when it does they lock your card & bank after ever transaction. Your debt card has a $500 max daily limit, the customer serve does NOTHING & will lie to your face

This bank has cost me hours in hours of sitting in the phone with them fixes issues that shouldn’t have been issues to begin with. Please don’t use this bank

Hi Ray,

Thank you for sharing your experience—we can see how frustrating it must be to deal with long deposit clearing times, repeated card restrictions, and difficulty getting the support you need. That’s not the experience we aim to provide.

Some of the situations you described, like transaction monitoring or temporary card restrictions, can happen as part of security measures designed to protect your account. That said, we understand how disruptive this can feel—especially if it’s happening frequently or without clear communication.

We’d really like to take a closer look at what’s been happening with your account and help get things resolved. Please reach out to us through our secure support channel here: https://www.bluevine.com/contact-us
so our team can review your situation directly and provide next steps.

If we’re able to address these issues for you, we’d appreciate it if you’d consider updating your review to reflect your experience.

Bluevine checking inc be aware

I responded to the email as requested, Bluevine but I still have not received meaningful assistance or a clear resolution. I continue to get the same generic responses without any specific update on when my returned funds will be posted. They are not helping or making a real effort to resolve the issue. Based on my experience, I would strongly caution others before doing business with Bluevine until this is properly addressed. BE AWARE THEY HIDE BEHIND BEING A FINTECH BANK SO THEY CANT HELP YOU IF YOU HAVE ANY PROBLEMS WITH YOUR MONEY. ITS NOT SAFE FOR GENERAL BUSINESS OPERATIONS.

Hi Christian,

Thank you for following up and sharing your concerns. We understand how frustrating it is to be waiting on returned funds without a clear timeline, especially when you feel like you’re not getting the level of support you need.

We’ve sent updates to you via email regarding your case, including details about the dispute and review process for returned funds. These situations can require coordination and verification steps, which can impact timing—but you should still receive clear communication along the way.

We’d like to make sure you have the most up-to-date information and that your case is moving forward as expected. Please reply directly to the most recent email from our team or reach out through our secure support channel here: https://www.bluevine.com/contact-us
so we can continue assisting you and provide any additional clarity.

If we’re able to resolve this for you, we’d appreciate it if you’d consider updating your review to reflect your experience.

Non compliance

Bluevine, I'm a PA business owner. Does Bluevine policy explicitly override PA Banking Code 7 P.S. § 603 regarding the capacity of minor business owners? My Case #101315851 seems to indicate so, and I'd love a public clarification for the small business community.The detail you are missing is that you are denying a valid, registered Pennsylvania LLC that carries a $2,000,000 commercial liability policy. Under PA Banking Code 7 P.S. § 603, I have full legal capacity to manage this entity’s accounts 'as though I were an adult.' >
By using a hard-block age filter, you are refusing service to a fully-insured, member-managed firm with a professional Operating Agreement and a verified EIN. I am looking for a banking partner that understands state law and recognizes the legitimacy of young founders who have already been vetted by major insurance carriers. If Bluevine cannot handle manual compliance for legal entities under 7 P.S. § 603, then your 'small business' focus is clearly limited.

Hi Mason,

Thank you for sharing your experience and perspective. We understand how frustrating this situation must be, especially given the effort you’ve put into establishing and insuring your business.

Bluevine's account eligibility requirements are designed to support our compliance obligations and are applied consistently to all applicants. We understand this outcome is disappointing, and we wish you the best in finding a banking solution that fits your needs.
