Not anymore, communists
February 12, 2022

Never, ever again will we ever be using this site again. After our donations to the Canadian truckers were stolen - we will never forgive and never forget.

Do yourself a favour, find a different platform. They won't give you the money raised if they don't like your cause. Total cancel culture. They deserve to be canceled. Theifs, crooks, con-artists.

I have use you in the past to donate to this or that. However I will no longer require your services because of what you did to the go fund me freedom convoy fund. I am praying that you will have eyes to see what is going on and ears to hear the truth. I am praying that you well stop being deceived. I am praying for your deliverance. I am praying you will stand up not only for you our rights but for everyone else's. Please watch World War I World War II and the Hitler movie. You can find them on YouTube. History is important if we do not remember it we will repeat it

You people make me sick. Holding the money from the Canadian truckers. They are protesting for freedom of choice which obviously you comunists don't care about. This is not your money it is all donations. I dont care if your refunding it or not, this was not your money. I really hope you loose lots of business for this comunist decision. You are disgusting comunist fools.

Untrustworthy
February 6, 2022

You may donate to a fundraiser, but GoFundMe will decide if it's a worthy cause, i. E. if it meets their narrative. They will try to confiscate your donations! DO NOT USE! NOT TRUSTWORTHY!

Donated to a cause funds were never received by the intended cause, refund was difficult and slow. Do not trust with your donation, use a more reputable crowd funding site

Freedom Convoy 2022
February 6, 2022

Regardless of their political allegiance they have no right to do what they did. They have done nothing but cause concern as to whether their platform works for everyone. If you don't align with their rhetoric they may shut you down. Never again will I donate through GoFundMe.

This organization is SUCH a joke! They stole the "Freedom Convoy" funds that all of us average Canadians donated to, claiming that the convoy was destructive (which it wasn't, despite what some MSM outlets say). If that's the reasoning behind the decision, why weren't "Black Lives Matter" funds shut down and taken away? Seeing as how a large portion of BLM protestors literally burned their cities down, looted, caused riots, and physically assaulted innocent bystanders. If GoFundMe truly has ZERO tolerance for any violence, shouldn't the BLM funds have been cut off as well? Or is it only the causes you don't agree with? The Freedom Convoy have not done ANYTHING violent, and you'd know that if you did a bit of research. The Chief of Police in Ottawa came out and said so himself. Then you decide to give us our money back AFTER an official investigation was started?!? What does that tell us? I will NEVER use GoFundMe again, and I know I'm not alone. Congratulations GoFundMe, you just upset 84% of Canadians who are now refusing to use your services.

GoFraudMe reversed their previous decision when government officials lodged an investigation into them. What are they so scared of if their practices are above board?

They chose and judge on their own whom to give donations which were collected by free will of donators.

Apparently they can take your money if they don't like the cause you're donating to, and give it to another cause that they like better.

Will never use to donate money again.

Not for Canadians.
February 6, 2022

Millions of dollars, just over 10 to be exact, was donated to Canadians to help for food, fuel, lodges etc. And any money left over would be donated to a charity for Canadian Veterans was shut down due to government pressure. Not cool! The world is watching, history is being made, I'm tired of all the negativity in this world, we finally have something positive to look forward to and you cave! Regardless, we'll go else where, the people always do.
