@AskRobinhood my application has been 'under review' for a month now. I've tried emailing multiple times, also tried getting help on here last week. Each time I've gotten a single message saying you'll 'look into it' and then nothing.

@AskRobinhood Hi! I signed up for Robinhood on Dec 28 and my application is still 'under review'. I also emailed Robinhood support a week ago. Can you help me?

@travelocity received a coupon code but can't find anywhere to enter it on the booking page....have searched online and looks like many others have this problem as well. Been on hold with customer service for about 20 mins - where do I enter coupon code??

[Kate Finley @Kate__Finley]

@thredUP_support Ok, I already emailed your customer service and was told I could not get a refund, but I will also DM you the details

[Kate Finley @Kate__Finley]

@thredUP Was refused a refund for a @thredUP skirt held together by tape and told it's the customer's responsibility to inspect items. Didn't know that included inspecting seams to make sure they're not secretly held together by tape - make sure to check!
