I was scammed out of ₺206,000 and Wise helped make it happen. Three British individuals came to Turkey for dental treatment. After consuming alcohol and illegal substances, they violently attacked my mobility vehicle. Thankfully, the police caught them. They admitted guilt and agreed to compensate for the damages.
They used the Wise app to send the agreed amount—₺206,000—on a Friday. Wise confirmed in the app that I would receive the funds by Monday. I relied on that promise. But on Sunday, before the funds arrived, they fled back to the UK and cancelled the transfer.
Shockingly, Wise allowed the cancellation, even though the money was sent and there was a documented legal agreement and criminal case behind it. How can Wise side with admitted offenders and let a transaction like this be reversed?

On April 29, 2024, I transferred 225 Euros to my Wise account via SWIFT from İş Bank. İş Bank charges an 850 TL transaction fee. So far, there have been no concerns. Then Wise notified me that only 215 Euros had arrived and requested an additional 10 Euros to proceed, or offered to cancel the transa...
On June 13, 2025, I attempted an international money transfer through Wise with the reference number P89701400. However, before the funds ever reached the recipient, I canceled the transaction. Despite this, my ₺1,000 has still not been refunded. I’ve been waiting for weeks and tried multiple times ...
I’m extremely frustrated with Wise. On April 25, 2025, I made two transfer requests from my international account to my account in Turkey. Due to a mistake on my end, the funds didn’t arrive. As soon as I realized the issue, I immediately contacted Wise. They told me to update my account information...
