Business's Favorite Review

“Fast and extremely helpful customer service.”

Jack U.
2/23/21

I found Escrow.com while looking for some added protection in purchasing a vehicle with a lien against it, and I'm glad I went with them! They have moved everything along very quickly, and one of their customer service agents (named Kana) kept me in the loop during the whole process. I will absolutely use them next time I need to make a major purchase or sale - they keep both the buyer and seller protected, and their team takes the time to answer all of your questions.

It is a hassle and over-priced service. I do not feel comfortable having to use Escrow and prefer other payment methods.

These jokers will screw your deal up. We started a transaction with them in mid february and even though the money was sent to them throught electronic transfer after 10 days they still had not cleared the funds. Caused the buyer to cancel deal and now at over 22 days he still has not gotten his money back from escrow.com. Absolutely ridiculous and a joke of a business.

Avoid this dumpster fire of a company. We were trying to close a deal by the end of February (it was feb 12th)...should have been easy. They received wire transfer and 9 days later still holding funds without any explanation and now theres no waynm the deal will finish in time. If you want to screw a deal up and get charged for it by all means use them otherwise avoid like the plague.

Very expensive. Won't accept checks in payment. Want you to wire everything at your expense. They keep referring to their rating at the Better Business Bureau (which they pay for) when their business practices were challenged. Service rep failed to understand concerns. Slow to respond to concerns.

Trustadvisor puts this site at 2.9 stars, but sitejabber at 4.8? Something seems to be really wrong with the sitejabber reviews, sorry.

1) I paid last week, 6 days ago actually. Escrow registered the payment, but since then it's "under review" for no reason.
2) I also had other issues, disconcerting error messages as well as being told that I hadn't paid yet when I actually had.
3) Finally, the fees are not transparent. We expected $13, but including payment processing it ended up being over $25 (for a small transaction, mind you).
Deals can fall through for many reasons, if you want to add totally unreasonable delay to the possible ways a deal can go wrong, use escrow.com
So so disappointed.

Escrow is a incompetent company. I'll never use them again. They closed my transaction on 12 March 2024 but 1 week later I still didn't get the funds.
When I asked their customer support. They told me that I and buyer need to complete the process. While I completed the process 1 week earlier and escrow closed the transaction
