First, make sure your Zelle or banking app is up to date, and that your phone’s operating system is current.
Check your messages and emails from Zelle or your bank—accounts can be locked due to suspicious activity, failed login attempts, or incomplete verification.
Log in to your bank account or Zelle app and go to “Settings” > “Security” or “Account Status” to see if there’s an alert or verification request.
If prompted, complete identity verification steps—this may include uploading a photo ID or confirming your phone number and email.
If your account remains locked, contact your bank’s Zelle support team, as they are usually the first to manage Zelle-related account issues.
You can also reach Zelle directly at [email protected] or call (844) 428-8542, Monday–Friday, 10 AM–10 PM ET.
❗ If the issue isn’t resolved, share your experience and consider 👉 filing a complaint on Xolvie 👈 to push for a solution.
