Documented Stories from Business Owners

Retail / Clothing

They Froze My Money for 3 Months — No Written Reason

I worked with Geidea for 6 months without issues. Then, during summer season, they suddenly stopped transferring funds with no prior notice. All they said was "under review." Three months passed and the amount — over EGP 40,000 — was still held. We never received a single official document explaining why.
Restaurant / Café

Account Suspended Mid-Season — Zero Compensation

In peak winter season, Geidea suddenly suspended the device, refusing to process any transactions. Customers started complaining and sales were noticeably affected. When I called, they said the account was "under review." Two weeks passed before the account was restored — with no compensation or apology.
E-Commerce

They Deducted Amounts from My Account with No Explanation

I requested a detailed account statement to understand the monthly deductions — they refused to send it. After persistent follow-up, I received an incomplete Excel file with unjustified numbers. The total monthly deductions exceeded what was agreed in the contract by 30% and no one could explain why.
Medical Clinic

Technical Issue Ongoing for 4 Months — Nobody Takes Responsibility

The device repeatedly fails to process transactions. Every time I call support, they open a new ticket. The problem recurred 7 times over 4 months — each time a technician says "it's fixed" and two days later it returns. The losses from failed transactions and frustrated patients run into hundreds per month.
Supermarket

Promised Resolution in One Week — 5 Months Later, Nothing

I filed a formal complaint about a discrepancy between what was collected from customers and what was transferred to my account. Every time I called, the answer was "within 5 business days." I called more than 20 times over 5 months. The accumulated discrepancy reached EGP 12,000 — still unpaid, no written explanation.
Gym / Sports Club

Contract Says 1.5% — Actual Charge Is 2.8%, No Notice

I signed a contract with a 1.5% commission per transaction. After 3 months I noticed the actual deduction was 2.8%. I sent the contract as proof. The response was: "The old contract expired and was automatically updated." I never signed any update and received no notice of the change. They refused to compensate.
Pharmacy

Support Agent Hung Up Mid-Explanation — 3 Months Unresolved

I called technical support to explain a monthly settlement discrepancy. After 10 minutes of explanation, they hung up. I called again and started from scratch with a different agent who gave me completely different information. I filed a complaint — 3 months have passed and it remains unresolved.
Service Workshop

Customer Refund Took 45 Days — Damaged My Business Reputation

A customer requested a refund after cancelling a transaction. Per the contract, the timeline is 7–10 business days. Geidea took 45 days. The customer was furious and left a negative review on my Google business page. I paid the price of their negligence with my own business reputation.
Electronics Store

Contract Terminated Unilaterally — 48-Hour Notice, Peak Season

Without any prior notice or communication, they sent an email informing me of contract termination within 48 hours. This happened at my peak sales season — I lost the POS device and digital coverage at the most critical time. The official reason in the email was "violation of terms of use" — without specifying which clause or what violation.

"I spent 4 months going back and forth trying to prove that the amount in my account didn't match what was collected. Every call brought a different agent with different information. I never got anywhere."

Retail merchant — Cairo Submitted via this site
"They cancelled my contract three days before the Eid holiday — my busiest period. I had no alternative payment method ready. I lost thousands in sales because of their timing."
🎂
Bakery owner — Alexandria Submitted via this site
"When I escalated my complaint, the manager told me my contract had 'automatically expired.' I was never notified. When I asked for the new terms, they sent a document I had never seen or signed."
💼
Services company — Giza Submitted via this site
"I filed a complaint with the Consumer Protection Authority. I'm sharing this here to encourage others who are going through the same thing — the official complaint route does work."
