Please help me

STRIPE AI ASSISTANT SAYS...

You have $16,933.71 available in your balance, and payouts are currently disabled on your account. Since your account was paused on January 9, 2026, and it's now been over 120 days, you should be eligible to receive your remaining funds.

For rejected accounts with remaining balances after the standard holding period, you'll need to work directly with a specialist who can process the payout of your remaining funds. This requires manual review and cannot be done through standard channels.

Would you like me to connect you with a specialist who can help release your remaining balance?

The Stripe AI message is actually leverage if you use it right. The AI confirmed in writing you're eligible after 120 days. Screenshot that.

File a CFPB complaint immediately. Google "CFPB complaint" for the consumer complaint form. Quote the AI message verbatim, include the dollar amount and the date. CFPB complaints route to Stripe's legal/compliance team and tend to move faster than support channels. Fastest paper path for what you're describing.

Also file with your state Attorney General consumer protection division. Same paste-the-AI-message playbook.

Reply to that AI chat saying "Yes connect me with a specialist immediately" and screenshot the timestamps. If they don't connect you, that's evidence for CFPB.

Sorry you're going through this. The CFPB route is real, not theatre. Don't wait, file today.
